Ask Consideration
Of Statehood Bills
\ ' ’ * . \t
WASHINGTON, (/P)—Senator
Cordon (R.-Ore.) said yesterday
he will formally ask Senate con
sideration of the Hawaii and Alas
ka statehood bills. |
“Reports from the Orient em
phasize the need for early consid
eration of the statehood bills,” he
said in a statement.
Senator Lucas (D.-Ill.) Senate
majority leader has said that Sen
ate action of the' statehood bills
depends upon how long Congress
remains in Session. * * •
The House-passed bills have
been approved by the Senate in
sular affairs committee.
Cordon, a committee member,
voted in committee for the Ha
waii bill and against Alaska state
hood. •
“While I appreciate the desire
of the present Senate leadership
for early adjournment, this being
election year, I also realize that
the situation in Korea may dictate
a longer session of Congress than
has been contemplated,” Cordon
said.
“Certainly it it be found in the
national interest to continue , the
session there then can be no rea
son why the statehood bills should
not have consideration.”
Cordon did not say when he
will make his bid for Senate ac
tion. The Senate program tenta
tively calls for consideration of
the appropriations bill next week,
followed by the tax bill.
PARIS, (/P)—The French Na
tional Assembly's foreign affairs
committee approved today, 25 to
13, United States action in Korea.
The opposing votes were cast by
communists, who proposed a mo
tion terming the U. S. action “ag
gression.” It was defeated by the
same vote, 25 to 13.
