JFK Reported Pleased With Congress Victory

WASHINGTON (AP) The 88th United States Congress opened for business Wednesday and dealt sudden death to con- servative members' hope. recapturing control of the key House of Representatives rules commi cc.

This victory for President Kennedy had been expected. but the size of his margin was a surprise. On the‘decisive vote ‘ the House. his supporters won 235 to 196.

The vote kept the size of the rules committee a 15 mem- bers. If Kennedy's forces had failed. it would have reverted

a O m

to 12 members. leaving the com- new

mittee in the grip of a coalition if conservative Republicans and

major elements of Kennedy's legislative program.

The committee. which con~ trols the flow of MI legisla- tion to the floor of the House. had been under the domination .of this coalition until two yea-rs ago. Then Kennedy forces. led by the late Speaker Sam Rey- burn. got a 217-to-212-vote vic- (ory that increased the size of the committee to 15 from 12 members.

SMOOTHER SAILING? Wednesday. with the help of Georgia Democrats and some Republicans. Kennedy in- creased that five-vote margin to 39 votes—a boost that may buoy

Southern Democrats opposed to‘

his hopes for smoother sailing through Congress IJII.IS year. Kennedy was described by White House press secretary Pierre Salinger as “most grati- fied" by the outcome. While the House opened its new session with a vital and decisive battle. the Senate con- tented itself with ceremony. Igoodwill and a postponement of (real business until after Ken- lnedy delivers his state-of-the- union address to Congress Mon-

'day. i Senators agreed they could

put off until then their various proposals to curb filibustering and their probable filibusters against the proposals.
