MARCH OF EVENTS

CONGRESS PREPARES TO OVERHAUL ITSELF

HEARINGS MAY LEAD TO MORE EFFICIENCY

By HENRY CATHCART

Central Press Washington Writer TrrASHINGTON—Congress has begun to take a look at ItW self. It is conducting hearings on how it may reorganize Itself to become a more efficient national legislative body. To many, it may appear that the effort is poorly timed. On the whole, Congress is performing remarkably well and the outlook is for more of the same for the balance

of this session, at least.

The House appears to be handling legislation expeditiously as well as wisely and in response to the desires of the majority of the voting public. The Senate is also moving along well and has even shown evidences of a willingness to do something about curtailing filibusters that have slowed down its work at

critical times in recent years.

Yet. no one will argue that Congress cannot improve its own procedures and practices. In fact, it has opened for itself, an opportunity to call public attention to the kind of legislative machinery this country ought to have in the years of challenge that lie ahead. One proposal from Sen. Joseph S. Clark, D-Pa., undoubtedly will receive detailed

examination—that committee chairmen be elected by secret ballot of the majority members, that such chairmen step aside at age 70. and that Senate filibusters be terminated after 15 days

of debate.

It is also obvious that Congress needs better control over the appropriation and spending of money by the government. The hearing undoubtedly will delve deeply into this matter of better fiscal control. One thing is plain. As the work of government grows greater and more complex. Congress must be overhauled to meet the greater demands thrust on it.

Some good ideas

• FACE-LIFTING—The Cannon Building. Capitol Hill s oldest office structure, will get a general going-over to bring it up to date as an office building for members of Congress. When it was built, back in 1905. it was designed to meet the office needs of all the members of the House, but things have expanded quite a bit since that time. The plan calls for modernization of the original plumbing and wiring, and remodeling of the present two-room office suites to give each congressman, usually a junior in point of service,

three rooms.

Proposals were made, but rejected, to spend $10.7 million for an entirely new air conditioning system and major structural

changes on the inside of the building. The legislators, it seems, are a bit sensitive about going through another round of public opprobrium because of the lavish way Congress spends money on itself. They were thinking of the $100 millionplus cost of building the just-completed new House Office Building, known as the Rayburn Building.

As it is, the modest modernization approved will run to about $5 million, or more than the entire cost of the structure when it

was built <0 years ago.

surge of bagpipe music, and a swirl of bright plaid. This is the season of highland festi-

vals in Canada.

Predictably, those held in Nova Scotia—or New Scotland —are among the most authentic. Pipe and dancing competitions are a highlight of the July “Gathering of the Clans”, in Pugwash. At Antigonish, even homegrown sports Tike golf and bawling are per-

formed in kilts.

The famous Gaelic Mod, at

Games at Eldon, held this year on August 4, are another main

event.

Ontario celebrates its Scottish ancestry with the largest assortment of highland festivals in Canada. Brantford features a double header—wuth games in both June and July. But the best known highland festivals in Ontario are Maxville and Fergus—frequently opened by clan chiefs from the old country. The Fergus games has the largest massed band

offers a special bonus—a highland dance instructors’ course, where would-be “highland swingers” can pick up valuable

pointers.

In British Columbia,highlandfestivals are an annual event at Nanaimo, Nelson, Penticton and Victoria. As for Vancouver —Caledonian Games have been held there every summer since.

These Sioux are Danny Buffalo (left) and Darrell Little, both of Dupree, S.D. Neither has ever worked in the strawberry fields before, but with the braceros (Mexican seasonal labor) out, there’s a critical shortage of hands.
