-President Truman told a news conference that he will make no announcement of has political plans during his forthcoming visit to Key West, which is expected to last until March 28. Mr. Truman announced that he will nominate Paul Walker as chairman of the Federal Communications Commission. Walker is now vice-chairman. Walker will succeed Wayne Coy who recently resigned.

The President also announced his selection oi Hobert T. Hartley, nephew of Speaker Sam Rayburn, for the FCC vacancy created by the elevation of Walker to the chairmanship. The President said he plans to leave for Key West March 7. He is scheduled to return to Washington in time for the annual Jefferson- Jackson Daj' dinner given by the Democratic party here March 29. The President, despite reports to the contrary from some of his recent visitors, foreclosed any possibility of an announcement on his own political plans before his return from Key West.

He brushed aside an inquiry about the possibility of an announcement at the Democratic dinner, saying he will give reporters the news when he is ready. Thus, there was no material deviation from his previously announced position, although Chairman Harold D. Cooley of the House Agriculture Committee said Tuesday atter talking with the Piesident that he thought Mr. Truman would announce a decision "within two or three weeks." The President said today, in regard to Cooley's forecast, that ho could not be responsible for what people said when they came out of his office. He added, however, that he imposed no gags, nor told anyone what to say.

The President sidestepped ef- iorrs to draw from him specific comment on the recent action by speaker Sain Kayburn in banning television and radio broadcasts of House comnxittec hearings. He was asked whether he objected to officials, of the Executive branch of Government appearing before committee whose proceedings were covered by jradio and television. The President said he thought it would be better for committees to tra'nsact their business at, comirullees snould. But later he said he was not implying oiilur opposition or JUJIDHJ foi the position taken by Rayburn. It is a matter for Congress to determine, he said.
