VetoGi.ven __w
WASHINGTON (P) - The Sen-
ate last night defeated 85-4- a pro-
ppsal of Sen, Joseph S. Clark (D-
Pa.) to. make permanent the 24-
year-old reciprocal trade law.
Leaders said it still was uncer-
tain' whether final action on the
bill would come today or next.
week. S e v e r a l more lengthy
speeches remained to be deliv-
ered.
The Clark move did not win any
general backing even from sup-
porters of President Dwight D.
Eisenhower in the trade program
fight. As the Senate inched to-
ward this first vote in two lengthy
days of debate, it heard hours of
oratory aimed in large part at the
voters back home.
The program authorizes the
President to negotiate tariff cuts
with other nations willing to cut
their tariffs on United States
goods. The House has voted to
grant a five-year egterision, with
authority for the President to cut
tariffs up to 25 per cent.

DIGGING IN-Marines of the United States Sixth Fleet set up a
mortar position on Khalde Beach shortly after landing south of
Beirut, Lebanon. This is one of a series of first pictu 'es to reach
the United States on the Marines' Beirut landing operation.
WINDUP OF TESTIMONY:
Gold fine Aleges Smear
At Committee HeBarings
WASHINGTON (JP) - Bernard Goldflne finished his testimony
before a House investigating subcommittee yesterday and promptly
complained, "Every possible attempt was made to smear me."
Republican subcommittee members devoted much of the eighth
and final day pf Goldfine's testimony to trying to show the gift-giving,
Boston millionaire behaved no differently toward Democratic than
toward Republican office holders. Chairman Oren Harris (D-Ark)1
Insisted the inquiry has been non-y

partisan.
Visited Truman Aide
Goldfine testified he visited and
telephoned John R. Steelman
when Steelman was assistant to
President Harry S. Truman more
than he did his friend Sherman
Adams, assistant to President
Eisenhower.
The hearings have been aimed
at finding out whether Adams ex-
erted influence in Goldfine's be-
half Goldfine repeatedly denied it,
as Adams had done before the'
subcommittee just a month ago..
Goldfine said he contributed
heavily to both party funds-prob-
ably, $100,000 over the years.
Stormy Session

contacts with Goldfine were about{
board discussions of a project;
that came within Steelman's juris-.
diction as head of the National
Securities Resources Board.
Goldfine's windup session with
the committee was stormy"
throughout, with words' like
"doubtful credibility," "contempt-'
ible" and "remarkable exploita-,
tion" of assets" flying back and
forth.

ROLL-CALL VOT E :
WASHINGTON (P)-In spite of
predictions of presidential veto,
the House yesterday passed a bill

Court from knocking out state
laws not in direct conflict with
federal laws on the same subject.

vote of 241-155 after three day$
of debate, now gpes to the Senate,
where indications were it wouldn't
be nearly so popular.

opening day of Congress last year
and was approved by the House
Judiciary Committee last month
by a split vote. It had the backing
of Southern Democrats and most
Republicans. They said it was
