To Resume Debate Over Bricker Bill Sen. Wiley Opposes Substitute Measure WASHINGTON, UP — Sen. Alexander Wiley said today President Eisenhower may take a “jok-‘ er” if he approves a substitute for the Bricker amendment proposed by GOP senate leaders. The Wisconsin Republican said he thought one provision of the leadership proposal, tentatively approved by the senate, would upset the balance of power between the "President and congress. Wiley, chairman of the senate foreign relations committee pointed out that Mr. Eisenhower said recently he did not want any treaty - restricting constitutional change that would upset the power balance between the branches of government. The provision in question provides that “no treaty shall be the supreme law of the land unless made in pursuance of this constitution.” Wiley said this would expand the President’s powers by enabling him to circumvent the senate's traditional control over treaties by sending them to both houses as executive agreements. Such agreements could become effective as internal law by a simple majority of each house. Treaties require two-thirds approval by the senate. Wiley opposes an constitutional change on treaty-making. Senate Republican leader William F. Knowland (Calif.) told the senate last week that Mr. Eisenhower has “indicated” the disputed provision is acceptable” to him. — — The senate resumes debate on the Bricker issue next week but no further votes are expected before Tuesday.

Burney said medical authorities are uncertain what prompts a heavy increase in rabies cases — the disease appears to run in cycles, much like measles does, for exampfe. The unseasonally warm weather probably has no bearing on the situation, he said, because the number of bites in any year normally are about constant. He said there is only a slight increhsd during the warm “dog days” of July, August, and September.
