Senate Starts Draft Of New Housing Bill
Washington—U.P.—The Senate Banking committee was ready to start drafting the administration's new housing bill today after completing a "preliminary" investigation of the housing scandals.
Sen. Homer E. Capehart (R-Ind.) chairman of the committee, said he was opposed to an administration proposal to liberalize the home improvement loan insurance program—one target of the investigation And he said he has a "big doubt" about another proposal to provide housing for low income families
But indications mounted that disclosures of alleged wrong-doing in the Federal Housing administration would hurt President Eisenhower's housing program.

Other congressional developments:
Defense — The administration claimed a victory in the defeat yesterday of a proposal that would have prevented President Eisenhower from sending U. troops to Indochina without congressional consent. The proposal introduced as an amendment to the "new look" defense appropriation bill, was defeated. The House went on to approve the defense money bill 377 to 0.
Seaway—Rep. Charles B. Brownson (R-Ind.) said about 195 to 200 of the 435 House members tentatively plan to vote against federal financing of the St. Lawrence Seaway project when the showdown votes come next Thursday. He said his amendment to require the project to be financed through sale of bonds to the public is gaining strength and that the final outcome now looks like a "toss-up."
Taft-Hartley—Senate Republicans scheduled a closed-door meeting to map strategy for next week's battle over amendments to the Taft-Hartley labor law. The amendments were approved by the Senate Labor committee on a straight party line vote.
