Atomic Veto Issue Shelved
LAKE SUCCESS, N. Y., July 23 (U. P.).~The United Nations atomic energy commission shelved the
, east-west dispute over “the atomic
veto” indefinitely today. The United States served notice it never would accept Russia's stand on the issue. *
Soviet Delegate Andrei Gromyko, retorted that Russia still found the!
American position “unacceptable.”
The issue was postponed until a later stage of atomic negotiations— perhaps for several months—shortly after Mr. Gromyko reopened his attempt to amend a majority report indorsing the United States stand on the veto qhestion. ~ Mr, Gromyko did not object, how- | ever, when Chairman Fernand Van! Engenhov of Belgium granted Mr. | Osborn’s postponement request, and
it was agreed to unanimously with- |
out a formal vote.

WASHINGTON, July 238 (U. P),
approved congressional investiga tions of the housing shortage and the high cost of living. Chairman Robert A. Taft (R.O) said, however, that if controversies develop, neither of the investigating proposals will be permitted to delay scheduled adjournment. of congress on Saturday. The housing resolution approved by the senate Republicans calls for establishment of a special housesenate committee to investigate: The need for housing, the extent to which building material shortages have contributed to the housing shortage, the reasons for high costs of materials and houses, the effect of “archaic building codes,” government housing activities, and the availability of capital for construction. Senator Joseph R. McCarthy (R. Wis.) sponsored the housing resolution, | The ‘price investigation, proposed ‘by Senator Raymond E, Baldwin (R. Conn.), calls for an inquiry by a subcommittee of the joint con-
ed by Senatgr Taft. The subcommittee would investigate “the present high prices of consumer goods.”
Compromise Reached On Farm Funds
Sungressional leaders, increasingly hopeful of hitting, their Saturday adjournment target, cleared the decks for fast action on remaining appropriation bills. Seven money bills were yet to be President Truman. There were other bills on the agenda of both houses, but G. Ox P. leaders indicated that nothing except an appropriation measure was important enough to hold congress in session beyond Saturday, Topping the list of appropriations was the compromise agriculture department bill which the ‘senate and house were expected to approve promptly. Once the most serious threat to adjournment, the bill was modified by senate-house conferees so as to be acceptable to both branches. The compromise figure of about $060 million for the agricultural appropriation was far above the house figure, but was below the total for which the senate had been holding out. :
Science Bill fo Truman Both house and senate made considerable progress toward adjournment yesterday. They approved a compromise bill for a national science foundation designed to keep the U. 8. up-to-date on scientific developments for war and’ peace. The measure provides government sponsorship for a broad-scale research program that will cost $20 million annually. In addition, the senate completed congressional action on the controversial interior department appropriation bill and rejected a motion to kill President Truman's housing reorganization plan. The house passed and sent to the senate bills to end excise taxes on costume jewelry, and to extend for two years the government's subsidy program on copper, lead, zinc and manganese,
Sidetracked Again The politics-laden Kansas City vote fraud case was sidetracked again by Republican senate lead. ers who feared that it might touch off a Democratic filibuster, However, house Republicans served notice that if the senate fails to act, they will seek a house inquiry into the justice depart. ment’s conduct in connection with Missouri's congressional “purge” primary of last fall,
