Washington Post Service WASHINGTON Handing the administration at least a temporary victory, the House Tuesday rejected two provisions designed to give congress a larger role in the conduct of foreign affairs. One would have required the President to submit to Congress for approval, by either a s Senate vote or majority vote of both houses, agreements with oth r nations two-third- Senator Asks Paper Probe providing for U.S. military bases abroad. Congress now must approve funds to construct such bases but does not give them approval. The second provision would have cut off funds to operate the State Department or any of several other agencies, such as the disarmament agency and U. S. Information Agency, if they refused for more than 35 days to submit information requested by the House Foreign Affairs or Senate Foreign The Committees. Relations would be only exemption direct communications with the President.
