Delay Bricker amendment vote to Feb 14 after Lincoln Day
Delay vote on the Bricker proposal will be laid aside tonight for at least ten days with no votes on contested parts until after Feb 14 and the return of GOP senators from Lincoln Day speaking engagements. Senators hope the breather will shift public opinion. Knowland hinted at a possible voice vote on noncontroversial items, but optimism remains limited. Senator George argues the agitation has served a purpose by warning the president to use treaty power prudently and by prompting tighter Senate scrutiny of treaty proposals, though it may complicate ratification. Bricker tones down his proposal and accepts changes proposed by four GOP leaders, adding a new provision the administration would not accept to require special Congress actions before a treaty or executive agreement becomes internal law unless exempted by the Senate.
