The Bricker proposal thus apparently will provide the first test of the Capitol Hill The weight of political opinion strength within his own party and here seems to be that if Eisen- as well as gauge to the amount hower fails to convince enough; of Democratic support he might GOP lawmakers that the Ohio Re- expect on some other issues, proposal is bad. he may Eisenhower told his news con- suffer a defeat that would dilute ference his prestige and perhaps threaten major segments of his legislative program. Bricker at one time had enough avowed support in the Senate to put his amendment across. Democrats said privately they intend to sit out, for the time being, the backstage battle over proposal to amend the Constitution to (1) spell out that treaties should not override domestic law and (2) give Congress power to regulate executive agreements not submitted to the Senate for ratification. Let Fight An influential Democratic senator, who asked not to be quoted by name, said he is not averse to letting the Republicans cut each other up politically on the issue.

He said it seemed obvious the Bricker amendment had been aimed originally at a Democratic president and that some GOP members were embarrassed now tliat a Republican was in the White House, adding: A tty. Gen. Brownell and Secretary of State Dulles keep the Republicans lined up on the side, then maybe we Democrats will have to step into the breach later to save Eisenhower and the country." Have Been Negotiating Brownell and Dulles have been negotiating with Bricker in an effort to get the Ohioan to modify his amendment, adoption of which they contend would hamstring the authority to deal with other nations. Bricker has stuck to his guns, aided by strong backing from the American Bar Assn. and a write- in campaign.

Some senators said they are receiving as many as 200 letters a day urging approval of his proposal. Eminent lawyers disagree as to whether it is true, as Bricker contends. that basic guarantees in the U. S. Constitution could be whittled away by international treaties.

Good Chance For Agreement Some lawmakers say there is a good chance for an agreement between Bricker and the administra- yesterdav fied it should take precedent over any state law, including state constitutions. When he deals with other nations, he said, he must speak for one government and not be involved in representing 48 states. Glad To Agree He said he was glad to agree that any treaty or executive agreement that contravened the federal Founding Constitution was void. But said he go back to the system under the Articles of Confederation-before the Constitution was adopted where individual states could reject treaties. Bricker, in a statement, said he disagreed with Eisenhower and he added: He believes that the federal government, merely by making a promise to another country, should be able to clothe itself with authority inconsistent with the Con- stitution of the United States.

Partial Backing Promised Sen. George said in an interview: am going to vote for the substantial parts of the Bricker amendment, although I am not prepared to go as far as Bricker which would impose civil rights measures on the states might slip through the Senate unnoticed. There were some indications Bricker might have difficulty getting the required approval of two thirds of the senators voting. Three of the original senators I is giving Congress the power who joined in offering the Bricker to regulate executive agreements, i proposal have died, reducing his George said he and some other public backers to 61. Some of the Southern Democrats fear treaties latter are reported wavering.

New Straight-Eight Reverting to the time tested Packard philosophy that in higher price cars people do not want radical changes but rather a quality product which retains its style value, the company will maintain accepted styling continuity with attractive exterior appearance changes in its 1954 Packards. In the Clippers, however, there are considerable styling advances, particularly in the strong new accent for the high, long rear fenders to give a more youthful appearance.

Leading mechanical innovation for 1954 is the introduction of a new engine for its Packard line. The new straight-eight delivers greater ability at the critical driving speeds of 40 to 70 miles per hour than any engine the firm has built in its 55-year history. It has a horsepower rating of 212 and is in all models except the Cavalier sedan. Ultramatic, automatic transmission, is standard equipment throughout the Packard line on all models except the Cavalier and the eight-passenger cars. The wide selection of mechanical and styling features in the 1954 lines gives purchasers of both Packards and Clippers the opportunity of choosing the features they desire motoring are continued in the cars.
