Notes From Congress By Edward T. Miller
President Truman's 21 government plans face broad approval with potential opposition to Plan 12 reorganizing the National Labor Relations Board and Plan 21 transferring Maritime Commission duties to Commerce. Hoover Commission ideals push clear presidential cabinet authority and delegated powers. House approves a farm measure adding 1.2 million cotton acres, with peanuts for price support and potato surplus handling by the Agriculture Department. Senate rejects cooperative housing financing, halting parts of the housing program and sparking a broader critique of Truman's agenda. Tax action unlikely this session, with focus on repealing Taft-Hartley and health insurance plans likely deferred. The Appropriations Committee aims to present a $1–2 billion top-off to the budget and pass a single package bill by spring. Security restrictions on secrets tighten with a near unanimous vote. two dissenters, Powell and Marcantonio.
