Murray, D., Mont., today called for a congressional congres-sional investigation of electric power lobbyists. He charged they sought to "emasculate" the interior in-terior department appropriation bill. In a speech made just before the senate started debate on the interior bill. Murray said the measure reached the floor "only after clearing obstacles placed in its path by this oldest and most powerful of lobbies." Murray introduced a bill to authorize use of $50,000 for a lobby lob-by investigation. He said three major budget requests re-quests for power transmission line funds were eliminated from the senate version of the interior department bill. He listed ihe Central Valley of California, the Colorado Big Thompson project and the southwest power administration admin-istration in this category. "Here- we have an example of the strength of the power lobby that operates against the interest of the people." he said.

S. Famine Relief program would be jeopardized by the threatened removal of OPA price ceilings on meat, dairy products and poultry. He said the state department had advised congress that the weakening of OPA, as proposed in legislation approved by the senate, might make it impossible for the government to fulfill its commitments for grain shipments to famine areas. Reliable sources revealed alsoj that former president Herbert Hoover, who has made a world : survey of the food situation fori President Truman, agreed with! administration officials that the weakening of OPA might seriously serious-ly hamper the famine relief program. pro-gram. Hoover is due back here, from South America tomorrow. Acheson said his major worry was that the removal of ceilings on meat, poultry and dairy products pro-ducts would eliminate or curtail the control over grain which the government has been able to maintain up to now. If ceilings are removed, Acheson Ache-son said, there is a great danger that most of the grain would be fed to livestock because of the probable greater return to the farmers.
