but bitter .cold temperatures began moderating Wednesday under the influence of a Western storm front The storm Tuesday turned fireblackened drought sections of southern California into a sea of mud as rains up to 3.57 inches doused the Los Angeles area. As the storm system moved inland, it sent temperatures soaring into the 50s in eastern Colorado and western Kansas in contrast to sub - zero readings during the

weekend.

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 7, 7959

Major Issues Face > Congress As First ' Session Held Today WASHINGTON (UPD—Here are major issues facing the new Congress: Spending: President Eisenhower has promised a balanced budget of about 77 billion dollars and a fight to hold down spending; some of his recommendations—particularly in his defense budget—are sure to be too low to-satisfy the Democrats. Civil Kights: The Senate .probably will tighten its anti-filibuster rule a little, but legislation in this field is unlikely this year. Space; Democratic leaders will prod the administration to move faster in space exploration, contending that new urgency was given by the Soviet “lunik.” Foreign Policy: There will be the perennial congressional fight over cutting the foreign aid program; Senate committees wiR be busy investigating disarmament and other administration policies. Labor: Both parties want new law® to combat corruption in unions, but there will be rugged battles over specifics. Housing: Democrats want a farreaching housing bill with slum clearance and other provisions to replace the measure stalled by the administration last year. Farm: There'will be a search for ways to keep the farmers happy with a less expensive federal farm > program. Z * In faition: A broad investigation is expected to hunt for measures to check rising prices and interest rates. __ Depressed Areas: New legislation probably will be passed to replace the bill vetoed last year to provide help for chronically depressed communities. - Taxes: Congress probably will agree to another extension of present corporate income and excise tax rates; it may be less eager to swallow the administration request for a increase in the gasoline tax.
