Congress Briefs: Lawmakers Clash Over Free Travel and Navy Aid
A series of AP dispatches from Washington report Sen John J Williams proposing a bill to bar free or reduced steamship rates for members of Congress and officials, drawing strong pushback from Sen Magnuson and Sen Butler who question past practices. The Senate Armed Forces Services committee advances a $1.64 billion military construction bill with missile base funding and housing units, while Eisenhower signs a refugee naturalization act for Hungarian evacuees and the House approves extra fringe benefits for senators. Additional actions include tax relief for entertainment tickets and a Ghana prime minister briefs House members, with a Ways and Means panel proposing over $280 million more for social security and welfare programs.
