Wed., June 21, 1950 Two Reorganizing Plans Vary From Hoover Report WASHINGTON June 21 - (JP A House committee was told Tues day that two of President Truman's new plans for reorganization of the government conflict with recom mendations of the Hoover com mission. The protest came from Robert L. McCormick, research director of the citizens committee for the Hoover report. This organization was set up ' to purfi for- jwem ment reorganization along the lines proposed by a commission headed by former President Herbert Hoo ver. The two plans at Issue call for the transfer of the reconstruction finance corporation to the com merce department and for the creation of a new government de partment of health, education and secutiry. Mcdormick appeared before the House Expenditures committee which Is considering resolutions to reject the proposals. Either the Senate or House may veto a re organization plan within 90 days after it is submitted by the Pre sident, i Shortly after McCormick testi fied, the committee heard Federal Security Administrator Oscar R. Ewing defend the plan for a new They're Preciou! Save 'em I Use Miller's Fur Storage, ft Frigid Cold! ft Germicidal! department. Ewing reportedly would be picked to head the de- Cartment if Congress allows it to e set up. McCormick said the plan to shift the RFC to the Commerce depart ment is "in direct conflict" with the Hoover commission proposals. He said the commission had sug gested transfer of the RFC to the treasury department. The pian to create the new de partment, he said, also is "at var iance" with commission recom mendations. While the President's proposal and the commission recommenda tion conform "to the extent that they grant departmental status to the social -and -educational func 'tions of the present federal secur ity agency," he said, they differ otherwise. He said the President'i plan would put two autonomous agen cies, the public health service and the office of education, in the new department. Curtin By MRS.

Petitions Ask NLRB For New Vote At K.Falls KLAMATH FALLS, June 21-UP) Approximately half the required number of signatures have been placed on petitions asking the National Labor Relations board for an election aimed at decertifying IWA-CIO local 6-12 as union re presentative for Weyerhaeuser Timber company employes here. Petitions are being circulated asking for the election as part of a back-to-work movement started by some Weyerhaeuser workers, union and non-union. The request to NLRB for an election came after officers of the IWA-CIO here declined to call a union meeting to vote whether to recall the local union s bargaining rights from the IWA northwest regional council. Weyerhaeuser has been struck by IWA since May IS, and all negotiations have been handled Dy the Union's northwest office. Herbert Shults, a Weyerhaeuser employee who is spokesman for the back-to-work movement, said petitions were being taken to woods camps for more signatures. About 300 names, or 31 per cent of the number of eligible Wey erhaeuser workers, are necessary to get NLRB consideration of the election request. Meanwhile, the back - to - work movement cropped up in another union at the Klamath Falls Wey erhaeuser plant. Some 90 com pany employes, members of the International Association of Ma chinists, have been called for a meeting to take a vote on pro posed action to get back to work. Members of the IAM have been idled by the IWA strike, refusing to cross the woodworkers's picket lines. Hot Wind Tunnel Designed For Studying Plane Tests LOS ANGELES IJP) A new "hot" wind tunnel designed for studying the broiling temperatures supersonic planes must withstand is under construction at the uni versity of California at Los An geles. Speed of air traveling through the tunnel will range from 1100 to 1400 miles an hour, far above that of sound, which travels at a rate of about 750 miles an hour. Atmospheric friction at these speeds is expected to produce tem peratures in the plane up to 670 degrees Fahrenheit. Newly designed cooling systems to protect pilots from this heat will be studied under the direction of Earl Jansen of the UCLA re search department. Atomic Bomb's Outlawing Aim Of 'Peace' Move NEW YORK. CP) A Com-munist-sponsored petition to out law the atomic bomb bai ieen launched in the United States with a goal of 5,000,000 signatures by mid-September. Known as the "Stockholm peti tion," it calls for outlawing the bomb, creating "strict inter national control," and branding as war criminals the first national leaders to use the bomb in war. It takes its name from the Communist-led ,meeting of the World Peace Partisans congress in Stock holm, Sweden, which started the appeal last March. Since then it has been circulated widely in the Soviet satellite countries and western Europe It was unanimously adopted by the Supreme Soviet (parliament) in Moscow. It now is being circulated throughout the Soviet union, with millions of signatures reported. The Peace Information center here said it was handling the pre liminary phases of the campaign. Abbott Simon, campaign director, said the American version of the petition was "similar" to the Stockholm version. He said the center "maintains contact," but is not affiliated with, , the World Peace Partisans. The petitions appeared in New York City, and the Communist Daily Worker said 10,000 persons distributing them were "en thused" at the response. The petition was denounced at Boston by a high state depart ment official as placing "a pre mium upon bad faith and evasion." Francis H. Russell, director of the department's office of public affairs, said agreement not to use the bomb would place "the rest of the world" at the mercy of Soviet mass armies. He added that all nations except the Soviet union and its satellites have been willing to accept inter national control of the bomb back ed by realistic inspection.
