WASHINGTON. May 13. Labor be

hvcrslty club palace

headquarters pal-
lace, the final stlp-
s ulation he maae
i'aul .Mallon was substantially
this: In any work to be done, only
Mr. Green's A. P. of L. craft union
labor shall be employed.
The humor of Mr. Lewis providing
Jobs for the workers of Mr. Green
la one thing. The mm mat mis dw.
tie of the behemoths has lately turn
ed Into something more of a family
affair Is another.
For Instance, there Is the fact (few
people know lt) that Mr. Green has
never been expelled from the Lewis
United Mine Workers' union. Fur-
thermore, the Lewis C. I. O. unions
have not been expelled from the
A. F. of L. They merely have sua
pended each other.
That seems to sum up their real
relationship behind their embattled
headlines. They are In a state of sus
pension, possibly permanent sus
pension, but by no means as bitter
suspension as they were some weeks
ago.
This will probably be denied ar
dently. It may be said Mr. Lewis
bad no love for Mr. Green, but only
self -preservation In mind when he
wrote his palace specifications. All
building trades unions are In the
A. F. of L. and Mr. Lewis would
than from non-union classes. The
fact that he specified lt may be ex
plained by the assertion that con
tractors were timid about taking the
Job for - fear of Lewls-Orecn labor
troubles on It. .
After all this has been explained,
however, there will still remain the
fact that Mr. Lewla has not kicked
out Mr. Green and vice versa.
It seems the United Mine Workers
executive committee discovered it
did not have the power to expel Mr.
Green because he appealed to a
local union for a hearing of the
charges. Hta local Is at Coshocton.
Ohio, and after the matter went
there, no one around hero heard or
it thereafter. Incidentally, there
seems to bo a deep Inside disposition

WASHINGTON, May 13. (AP)
The house appropriations committee
over-rode economy demands today
and recommended a $1,500,000,000 ap
propriation for work-relief In the
fiscal year beginning July 1,
The committee reversed a subcom
mittee which voted, 5 to 4. two days
ego to hold the appropriation to
$1,000.000.000 one-third less than
President Roosevelt asked.
In the opposite wing of the capitol,
the senate approved a $60,000,000 cut
in a proposed $500,000,000 aprorlatlon
,for soil conservation payments during
the next fiscal year.
j No Debate on Slash
The slash made by the appropria
tions committee waa approved with
out debate, and without vocal dissent,
during consideration of the agricul
tural supply bill. Some of the senate
apparently did not even realize the
amendment they were approving.
Immediately after the senate acted,
however. Senator Vandenberg (R
Mlch) discussed the soil conservation
payments, announcing he favored the
reduction.
Harry L. Hopkins, works progress
edmlnistrator. had testified before
the house subcommittee the $1,500
000.000 appropriation would provide
jobs for an average of 1,730,000 work
