Today In Washington Senate Give. Significant Assurance To Fre, Enterprise By DAVID LAWRENCE (Reproduction bv this amend WASHINGTON. AUG. 1. Free nrivate enterprise in the United SritM lias been given a significant SrturBiiee by the United States assurance against abuse nf lending power by the federal wa, Jovernment.

The vote is interesting that the coniSwitf lhat conservative Democrats and npniiblicans as well as a number down a mon- ft administration Democrats joined Proposal which would have approving declaration of policy funds irom LffS written by Senator Mahoney of by mrniiCipaiitie.s Wyoming SENATE ASKED TO PROBE MEXICO OIL Two Proposals Submitted For Inquiry Into Assistance In Sale Of Product Seized From Americans Mr- OMa- ing to observe that THE particular amendment to the lending bill which was adopted concerned a pro- hibition 01 the possible use of federal funds to encourage municipalities to borrow money to build competing electric tot and power plants without taking into account whether adequate service whether the ex- LAWRENCB isting facilities could be purchased on a reasonable basis. It went fur- have their Seeking to light plants lectric and SBft wen have a 8Wa.y the adrninis- distrust baied on distrust to a certain extent of Power hitherto voted nf fh' anx largely on the failure of the administration to tner than a prohibition against Democratic members of the electric light competition and struck irrespective of faction, out also against the possible inva-1 sion of all private enterprises by government operations. PERHAPS the most challenging speech in many least several senators characterized it as from Senator ey when he commented on an attempt by Sen a Norris of Nebraska, public ownership advocate, to defeat his amendment on the ground it might give power companies a loophole for delay and litigation. Said Mr. in part: "SO 1 say to the senate, stop all this quibbling about what is going to happen with a $350,000,000 loan fund, stop all quibbling about the right of some municipality to obtain a loan to build a utility in competition with an existing utility.

The fight against abuses by corporate power has been practically won. I believe it has been completely won. I believe that one of the great reasons why the fight has been won is because senators like the distinguished and able senator from Nebraska (Mr. Norris) have been willing to stand upon the floor of this body and out on the stump to wage a ftght for free private enterprise. "FREE private enterprise is endangered not only by monopoly.

It is also endangered by government. My experience during the past twelve months with the temporary national economic committee has convinced me that 90 per cent of all the business men in the United States want only the opportunity to go forward. I say give them the HAD the conservative Democrats been merely seeking to embarrass the administration they would have voted for the extreme amendment proposed by Senator Danaher of Connecticut, which endeavored to put the senate on record against any government aid for all possible competing enterprises. Mr propasal with a provision for a public hearing by the federal Works Administrator and with other restrictions seemed to embody a policy fair, on the one hand, to private enterprise and, on the other, to the municipalities desiring to avail themselves of public borrowings. It was by no means what might be called a retrogressive step for it puts into law what the President and his associates in the executive branch of the government have pledged informally, but which could not serve as effectively as a legal guarantee until congress embodied it in a formal statute.

THE vote of 45 to 25 does not by any means reflect the pro and anti sentiment on public ownership. Among the votes cast against the Danaher amendment were some Republican and Democrats who would have preferred the more extreme proposals and did not wish even by indirection to seem to favor federal funds for competing plants to be constructed by municipalities. On the whole the votes in the senate last Saturday show clearly that the senate believes the sentiment of the country Is drifting rapidly awav from allowing public funds to be used to break down the system of free private enterprise.
