This House action is retribution for the President's attempt last year to circumvent Congressional committees .in proposing a Department of Urban Affairs. Indeed, the President narrowly escaped being deprived entirely of the reorganization authority to consolidate, transfrr, nnri abolish agencies - - an authority which has been granted to every other President since Franklin D. Roosevelt. Actually, if it were not for the prestige of former President Herbert Hoover, who originally proposed this extraordinary authority, it is doubtful that President Kennedy would have been entrusted with the privilege of originating "reorganization" legislation under a completely unique type of measure containing a delegation of limited legislative aur thority. The following day, the President's inaction in civil rights legislation led to turmoil in the House of Representatives and a session lasting until almost 10 p.m. This resulted from a few Democratic Members, led by Congressman John Bell Williams cf Mississippi, attempting to deprive Republican members of their pleas for administration support of civil rights legislation. Ultimately, the parliamentary maneuvers failed, and an almost full House chamber heard a revealing report on the administration's inactivity -- so far -- including a refusal of Attorney General Robert Kennedy to testify before a House Judiciary committee. The last rebuke of the week is contained in a small amendment to the Agriculture Appropriation bill, debated June 6. Offered by Congressman H. R. Gross (R-Iowa), the amendment provides that no part of the Agriculture department appropriation may be employed to establish or support a "Domestic Peace Corps." The Richard E. Schafer, machinist mate first class of the United States Navy, son of Frank and Marcella Schafer of Riverside drive, is home on a twenty-day leave from San Diego, Calif., his home base. Stationed aboard the guided missile destroyer Hoel DDG 13, Dick has just completed a cruise to South America, Canada and Hawaii. Returning to California at the end of his leave, he will soon be leaving on another cruise to Hawaii, amendment may seem farfetched, but it constitutes an administration "spanking" for having used funds for last year's Agriculture department appropriation in establishing a "pilot" domestic Peace corps. If the Democratic majorities in the Congress seem to be held in line through party loyalties these days, there should be no real cause for rejoicing in the White House. Principal issues and administration programs notwithstanding, when the members of the House are "on their own," their basic philosophy shows through. In a nutshell, their creed is: "The Congress still makes the laws!" There's No SUBSTITUTE for MONEY in the BANK DAVID DULML Marine Private David O. Druml; son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward M. Druml of 5011 West Shore drive, McHenry, completed individual combat training recently at the Marine Corps Base, Camp Pendleton, Calif.
