SUNDAY, 14 FEBRUARY 1965 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THREE ' SUNDAY, 14 FEBRUARY 1965 TIlE MICHIGANI DAILY A ZWra+ & AAAWLIJU VA Congress Ready For Tough Bill S By JACK BELL Associated Press Staff Writer WASHINGTON-The domestic tranquility of President Lyndon B. Johnson's relations with the 89th Congress is about to be sundered by arguments over forthcoming legislation. Under constant prodding from the President, the Senate got off to its speediest start in years. The House hasn't been as diligent in passing bills and the Senate has about run out of retreads- measures similar to those it passed last year but on which the House didn't act. But now come the tough ones, bills which are certain to arouse considerable controversy. In the opinion of Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mans- field of Montana, the pace estab- lished in handling four major bills can't last. Time Out for Consideration "We are arriving at the perio r d when new matters have to be .. considered and some of them are going to be very controversial," Mansfield said. "We will work as } ".speedily as we can, but we can't: keep up the pace we have set."

This move to free additional gold reserves has the support of Republican leaders. . * Plotting Opposition But Minority Leader Everett M. Dirksen of Illinois has cooked up some opposition to a Johnson proposal for a Constitutional amendment on Presidential inability which will come up after disposal of the gold bill. Republicans are complaining about the farm of the President's proposals for aid to education. And some of them are offering alternatives for his program for health care for the elderly financed by a payroll tax. There is bipartisan opposition to Johnson's plan to revise the immigration laws to abolish the present national origins immigration quotas. Sen. Thomas H. Kuchel of California, the assistant Republican leader, said in a letter to the Senate Immigration Subcommittee it is time to wipe out the national origins quotas on immigration. But f many others favor retention. End Quota System "Let us wipe out the discriminatory quota system," Kuchel urged. "Let us allow people' who will aid our nation's continued growth to enter this country. Let us open our doors to those who need asylum most." Heading into these controversies, the President has rubbed a great many members of Congress the wrong way by executive orders shutting down military establishments, closing veterans' hospitals and agricultural research stations. How much these abrasive measures will affect his support for major legislation remains to be seen. Democrats converged on Grand Rapids yesterday for a spring convention that was short on major decisions and long on the usual confusion and hoopla. Hopefuls for legislative auditor and national committeeman cir- culated among several thousand! delegates, pumping for votes that will not be cast at this weekend convention. The national committeeman will be selected by the Democratic State Central Committee after the incumbent, former Gov. John B. Swainson, steps down upon his expected, April 5 election to the' Wayne County Circuit Court.
