Hits Foes of Plan As ‘Reckless and Irresponsible’ + WASHINGTON, Mar, 10 (UP) ~Gov. Chester Bowles of Connecticut, former price administrator, today called for Congression-| al approval of a 27-month exten slo of rent controls, Yi. . In testimony prepared for delivery before a Senate Banking Subcommittee on rents, Mr, Bowles denounced foes of rent control as ‘reckless and irrespon-| sible.” | : He said they included the same persons who “fought tooth and| niall to open the floodgates of in-| flation just three years ago.” { Mr. Bowles testified as the representative of the Américans for Democratic Action, a New Deal organization. He is on ADA's na-| tional board. The House, meanwhile, prepared to take up an administration bill to extend controls for 15 months beyond the Mar. 31 expiration date. But the measures faces strong Republican opposition. Elsewhere in Congress: Oleo Chairman Harold Cooley (D. N.C.} of the House Agriculture Committee -said—he--bhelieves. the, House will approve a bill to permit the unrestricted sale of pre-| colorea yellow oleomargarine, fn-| stead of the measure approved by, his committee. |

Filibuster Senate Democratic Leader Scott W. Lucas expects to file his longthreatened cloture or “gag” peti-| tion later today to set the stage for a showdown on the Senate's anti-filibuster debate. If Vice President Alben W. Barkley approves the cloture motion, southern Democrats have the right to ask for a Senate vote, on his ruling. .
