AMENDMENT OF TITLE 3 OF THE SUGAR ACT OF 1948 Mr. McCARTHY. Mr. President, I in- troduce, for appropriate reference, a bill to amend title 3 of the Sugar Act. This bill deals with the section under which the Secretary of Agriculture is re- quired to determine fair and reasonable wages. It establishes the national mini- mum wage as a norm, but it also provides that the Secretary, after due notice and public hearing, may make exceptions in case of hardship. It also offers an in- centive for producers to meet the standard. I ask unanimous consent that the bill remain at the desk until the Senate ad- journs tomorrow in order that Senators who desire to sponsor the bill may have an opportunity to do so. The VICE PRESIDENT. The bill will be received and appropriately referred; and, without objection, the bill will lie on the desk, as requested by the Senator from Minnesota. The bill (S. 3457) to amend title 3 of the Sugar Act of 1948 to provide for the establishment of fair and reasonable Minimum wage rates for workers em- ployed on sugar farms, and for other purposes, introduced by Mr. MCCARTHY, was received, read twice by its title, and referred to the Committee on Finance. TATDDITIONAL ASSISTANT SECRE- TARY OF STATE Mr. FITLEIRIGHT. Mr. President, by request, I introduce, for appropriate ref- erence, a bill to authorize the appoint- ment of one additional Assistant Secre- tary of State. The proposed legislation has been re- quested by the Assistant Secretary of State, Mr. Frederick G. Dutton, and I am introducing it in order that there may be a specific bill to which members of the Senate and the public may direct their attention and comments. I reserve my right to support or oppose this bill, as well as any suggested amend- ments to it, when the matter is con- sidered by the Committee on Foreign Relations. I ask unanimous consent that the bill may be printed in the RECORD at this point, together with the letter from the Assistant Secretary of State, dated June 4, 1962, in regard to it. The VICE PRESIDENT. The bill will be received and appropriately referred; and, without objection, the bill and letter will be printed in the REcoito. The bill (S. 3459) to authorize the appointment of one additional Assistant Secretary of State, introduced by Mr. FULBRIGHT, by request, was received, read twice by its title, referred to the Com- mittee on Foreign Relations, and ordered to be printed in the RECORD, as follows: Be it enacted, by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That sec- tion 1 of the Act of May 26; 1949, as amended (5 U.S.C. 151a), is amended by striking out "eleven" and inserting in lieu thereof "twelve". SEC. 2. Section 106(a) (17) of the Federal Executive Pay Act of 1956 (70 Stat. '738) is amended by striking out "(11) " and inserting in lieu thereof "(12)". The letter presented by Mr. FULBRIGHT is as follows: DEPARTMENT or STATE, Washington, D.C., June 4, 1962. THE VICE PRESIDENT, U.S. Senate. DEAR Ma. VICE PRESIDENT: Enclosed is a proposed bill, to authorize the appoint- ment of one additional Assistant Secretary of State, which the Department believes will strengthen executive direction within the Department. This position would be used for the Director of the Bureau of In- telliacuce and Research. The importance and scope of the job and the need to main- tain the Department's position in the in- telligence community fully justifies this action. The Bureau of Intelligence and Research has the dual function of meeting the require- ments of the coordinated intelligence com- munity under intelligence directives issued by the National Security Council, and also meeting the Department's own research and intelligence needs. In a rapidly changing world it is essential for sound policymaking that adequate information be available re- garding the current situation and the prob- able future consequence of potential altern- ative decisions. It is important to attempt to look ahead, to try to anticipate problems or opportunities for American foreign pol- icy and it is also necessary to apply spe- cialized skills to the task of improving the basic assumption on which policy rests. For these reasons the functions of the Bureau of Intelligence and Research are equivalent in importance to those of the geographic and functional bureaus current- ly headed by an Assistant Secretary. The enactment of the proposed bill would en- able the Department -td give more adequate attention to the quality of research activi- 21 ties and would insure consideration of re- search information at a high level. The Department has been informed by the Bureau of the Budget that there would be no objection, from the standpoint of the ad- ministration's program, to the presentation of the draft legislation to the Congress for its consideration. Sincerely yours, FREDERICK G. DUTTON, i Assistant Secretary (For the Secretary of State) . COMMEMORATION OF 175TH ANNI- VERSARY OF THE CONSTITU- TION OF THE UNITED STATES Mr. DIRKSEN. Mr. President, I call attention to the fact that on the 17th of September 1962 we shall observe the signing of the final draft of the Con- stitution of the United States at the convention in Philadelphia. I propose to introduce a joint resolution that the 17th day of September 1962 is hereby designated as "the 175th anniversary of the signing of the Constitution of the United States", and the President of the United States is authorized and re- quested to issue a proclamation inviting the people of the United States to ob- serve and celebrate such date with ap- propriate ceremonies and activities. I introduce the joint resolution for ap- propriate reference. The VICE PRESIDENT. The joint resolution will be received and appro- priately referred. The joint resolution (S.J. Res. 202) to provide for the commemoration of the 175th anniversary of the Constitution of the United States, on September 17, 1962, introduced by Mr. DIRKSEN, was re- ceived, read twice by its title, and re- ferred to the Committee on the Judiciary. CONFLICT-OF-INTEREST LEGISLA- TION?AMENDMENTS Mr. KEATING. Mr. President, the Senate Committee on the Judiciary this morning, held hearings on some ex- tremely important legislation already approved by the House of Representa- tives. The bill before the committee was H.R. 8140. This bill is the most com- prehensive attempt to overhaul our con- flict-of-interest statutes in many years. There are some weaknesses in the bill as it now stands, and I intend to offer for myself and my colleague [Mr. JAvirs] four amendments to improve the bill, which I ask unanimous consent be printed at the conclusion of my remarks and referred to the appropriate com- mittee. The PRESIDING OFFICER. With- out objection, it is so ordered. Mr. KEATING. Mr. President, the first amendment would incorporate a system of administrative enforcement for the conflict-of-interest laws. The ad- ministrative remedies and civil penalties included in the amendment would in no way prevent criminal prosecution but would supplement the criminal provi- sions of the conflict-of-interest laws. The President's message to Congress of April 27, 1962, on conflict-of-interest leg.

OIL IMPORT CURBS URGED BY TYLER, TEX., CHAMBER OF COM- MERCE Mr. YARBOROUGH. Mr. President, the board of directors of the Chamber of Commerce of Tyler, Tex., has recently expressed its concern over the high level of oil imports and the resulting damage to the domestic oil industry. The Tyler Chamber of Commerce board called for immediate action by the U.S. Congress to establish a limita- tion on U.S. oil imports, thereby reliev- ing the domestic oil industry of an un- fair and extremely damaging burden to an important segment of our national economy. In support of this view, I ask unani- mous consent to have printed in the RECORD the following exceptionally well- stated resolution, captioned "Resolution Supporting Stronger U.S. Oil Import Program," and signed by J. Harold Stringer, president of the board of di- rectors of the Tyler Chamber of Com- merce. There being no objection, the resolu- tion was ordered to be printed in the RECORD, as follows: RESOLUTION SUPPORTING STRONGER U.S. OIL IAIPORT PROGRAM Whereas U.S. imports of foreign-produced crude oil and petroleum products continue to rise to new record high levels every year despite a Government restriction program end which record was 697 million b rre 1961, an increaarileti letirett o Z1 nd Whereas imports of crude oil and petro- leum products have become the largest single contributor to the development of an un- I:exorable U.S. trade balance such imports reaching a value of $1,667 million in 1961 and which imports constituted 11 percent of all U.S. imports and being far more than caftee, the second ranking U.S. import in 1961; and Whereas this rapid increase in petroleum imports is a major cause of the seriously de- pressed condition in which the U.S. domestic petroleum industry finds itself today; and Whereas this depressed condition of the domestic oil industry in the United States is particularly of "evidelabe-lia the State of Texas and especially in east Texas, as indi- cated by the following facts: 1. In direct contrast with the large y+ vrth of foreign oil imports, and despite an 11.6- percent increase in U.S. petroleum deeiand, U.S. domestic production of crude oil s nring 1961 was limited to almost the la etical level as in 1956, although there exists a -hut- in producing capacity of more than 23: mil- lion barrels per day in the United St4 tee, 2. U.S. income from crude oil product on is less now than in 1957, due to a dechee of 17 cents per barrel, or 5 percent, in ste erage U.S. crude oil prices at a time when dor ,estic producing rates have remained static. 8. Total new wells drilled for oil and gas in the United States has decreased 19 pt ? cent since 1956, including a 30-percent decli ae in wildcat drilling upon which the discav, t y of new producing sources is dependent. 4. The number of rotary drilling rigi able to find work in the United States be de- clined by 40 percent since 1956. 5. A decline since 1957 of 25 percer: has occurred in number of contracting dens operating rotary drilling rigs in the ii ited States. 6. Total U.S. petroleum industry em- ployees has dropped 11 percent since J58: Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the board of direct o of the Tyler Chamber of Commerce meetis e at Tyler. Tex., on June 6, 1982, does ha eby vigorously urge and request the exec tive department of the U.S. Government tc im- mediately take steps which will impar an overall limitation on all oil imports .'one all sources into all areas of the United /8 ates to a level that will not exceed the 14-pee ent relationship of imports to domestic erne' oil production that existed in 1956; and 1 a it further Resolved, That the board of direetos of the Tyler Chamber of Commerce &civet +ltes and supports immediate action by the U.S. Congress to establish such a limitatio: on U.S. oil imports.
