WHEELER UNITES
WITH LABOR UPON
RAIL WAGE SLASH
WASHINGTON, Oct. 18. (AP)
Chairman Wheeler (D., Mont.) ot the
acnate Interstate oommerce commit
tee advocated today centralization of
government control of all forma ot
transportation, Including railroads,
trucks and water carriers.
The Montana senator, here to test
ify for the rail brotherhoods before
the president's fact-finding board,
said he believed there was "no Just
ification" for the railroad's attempt
to force through a IS percent pay
out. The brotherhoods have voted to
strike rather than accept the pay
cut.
Wheeler In suggesting all transpor
tation operate under the aama con
trols, was In agreement with George
Harrison, rail labor spokesman.
Harrison made that one of his
points In a suggested long range
program, under which labor, man
agement and the federal government
would team up to rehabilitate the
carriers. He pleaded with manage
ment to withdraw Its pay cut de
mand, for the benefit of all three.
"I think something ought to be
done at the next session of congress,"
Wheeler declared, "about establishing
centralized control of transporta
tion." "The railroad complain truck and

water carriers are not regulated and
the government la subsidizing the
other forma of tranaportatlon. The
only way this thing can b worked
out 1 to put all transportation under
one board."
Asserting ht belief a wag out
would be of little benefit to the rail
roads la the long run, Wheeler de.
clared!
"What the railroad need Is more
business.
"When a depression comes, ths
railroads always mike the mistake of
cutting wages and asking for rat
Increases. Where would the auto In
dustry be If It tried to relse the
prices ot Its product In a depression?"
RRIGATION FUND
WASHINGTON, Oct. 13. UP) The
public works administration gave
70,000 to the reclamation bureau
today for use on two western Irriga
tion projects.
PWA said 400,000 would go to the
Sunnyatde division of the Yakima
projeot In Washington for betterment
and aupplemental construction and
350,000 to the upper Snake river
project In Idaho to meet Increased
costs of materials and supplies.
Two conditions were attached to
the Sunnyslde allotment at the re
quest of the bureau.
The first, officials said, called for
the signing by each district In the
division of a separate contract where
by the money would be repaid to the
government In 80 annual Install
ments. The second provided none of the
funds could be be spent until agree
ment was reached that suits In fed
oral court here over water rights
would be kept Inactive until April 1,
1040. Reclamation officials explained
this condition was Inserted In the
hope a satisfactory settlement could
be negotiated meanwhile.

TELESCOPE' SHOWS
JUPITER HIT BY
TERRIFIC STORM
L06 ANGELES, Oal., Oct. 13
(AP) JStorm clouds, black u coot
and some 2,000 ml lei wide, were ob
served on the planet Jupiter last
night by Lyle Abbott, astronomer In
charge of the 12-lnch telescope of
Griffith observatory here.
"So startling was the great black
pot," Abbott reports, "that for a
time those who were called In to
check It were Incredulous and be
lieved It was the shadow of one of
Jupiter's 11 moons, moon No. 4,
which at that time was passing be
tween the earth and Jupiter.
"A check showed Immediately,
however, there could be no shadow,
and we settled down to the exciting
task of watching this monstrous phe
nomenon swiftly passing over the
face of the planet. Jupiter rotates
on Its axis so fast Its day and night
pass In 0 hours and 58 minutes.
"The huge ebony cloud lay about
10 degrees south of the equator and
appeared to be associated with one
of the cloud bolts. Near It were two
pearly oval-shaped areas, surrounded
by the normal colored dark belt ma
terial." V
Abbott satd that In three years
study of Jupiter nothing so densely
black as this has been seen. He said
speculation as to the nature of the
black cloud ranged from the possi
bility of a most unusual storm to a
vast curtain of Inky black dust shot
high Into Jupiter's upper atmosphere
by a Ga-rgantuan volcano.
The planet Is 402,641,200 miles
farther from the sun today than the
earth.
