Wilson said yesterday "there is no difference of opinion whatsoever" between President Dwight D. Eisenhower and himself on a proposed new budget system. Published reports based gn a congressional hearing record re- leased Sunday said President Ei- senhower and Wilson did not see eye to eye on the system, under which Congress would appropriate operating funds for government departments strictly on a year-to- year basis. The reports were based on Wil- son's recent testimony before a House Appropriations subcommit- tee. Wilson Appears Wilson appeared at a closed meeting of the group July 1 and a transcript of the testimony was made public by the subcommittee Monday. In a statement issued yesterday, Wilson said "it should be noted that Hoover Commission recom- mendations and legislative pro- posals to implement them were not under consideration" by the subcommittee when he appeared before it. "The subject matter under dis- cussi'on at the time was the so- called partial financing of pro- curement," Wilson said. One Reference "I made only one passing refer- ence to the accrued annual ex- penditure proposal." Under this proposal, govern- ment departments would be given contract authority only for pro- jects extending beyond one year. They now get the actual cash for such programs, and the appropri- ations are carried over from year to year. "The Department of Defense i making an intensive study of means by which this method of b'udgeting accrued annual expen- ditures might to best advantage be applied to its complex procure- ment program," Wilson said. Determination in Effect "As a matter of fact, our cur- rent determination to live within the 38 billion expenditures esti- mated in the President's budget last January is in effect carrying out a budget system based on ac- crued annual expenditures. "There is no difference of opin- ion whatsoever between the Presi- dent and myself in regard to this matter." Flash Flood Breaks Dams, Kills One Man LAS VEGAS, N. W. (mP)-A flash flood roared out of the mountains northwest of here early yester- day, taking at least one life and breaking three small dams In its fury. The victim, the Rev. Emil La- Porte, 41 years old, was found drowned yesterday afternoon a mile downstream from where his car was washed off a road into a gully. SThe Rev. Mr. LaPorte's daugh- ter, Laura, 10 years old, was travel- ing with her father and was be- lieved drowned. Her body had not been found. Rev. Mr. LaPorte was a minis- ter at the Southwest Bible Fellow- ship in Las Vegas, N. M. He was driving near Sapello, a small community north of Las Vegas, when run-off water from 2.79 inches of rain swept his car from the road.

Walter F. George (D-Ga) was laid to rest in a sun-dappled cemetery. Fellow citizens from offices high and low heard him eulogized -as a, just man with a heart full of sym- pathy and humility before God. Sen. George was an unusual senator. He could influence votes by making a speech. George Rated It's surprising, since speeches seem to roll interminably on, how few senators would rate this sim- ple epitaph: "His talk changed votes." Lest you think this a sardonic view of an ear-weary reporter, let's rustle up official backing. A booklet put out by the Senate, "Our American Government," at- tempts to answer 291 questions on how this wonderful contraption works. Question No. 140 goes like this: "Q. Is legislation much influ- enced by oratory?" "A. Not much." Yet Sen. George of Georgia, who died Sunday at his home in Vien- na, Ga., six months after winding up 34 years in the Senate, was the exception." Influence Rare - Sen. Carl Hayden (D-Ariz) re- cently was discussing how rarely oratory influences legislation, and why he seldom bothers to make speeches. He pointed out that on appro- priations bills, which he handles, policies have been set, the com- mittee has collected the facts and. he said talk is a waste of time. All this characterized' Sen. George's work in Washington while he strove for peace in a troubled world as chairman of the powerful Foreign Relations Com-. mittee. He favored a strong bi- partisan foreign policy and was admired alike by Republicans and members of his own Democratic party. Henry Cabot Lodge, United States ambassador to the United Nations, was present as President Dwight D. Eisenhower's personal representative, along with 25 sen- ators and two representatives who flew down from Washington. a j ,,1 1 7 1 1 1 3 J 1 A 1 1 i Khrushchev Dropping Civil R itsz Visiting Team Partner Action Soon BERLIN P)--A Soviet Embassy explanation failed yesterday to P'a check a growing crop of rumors that Premier Nikolai A.
