PEACOCK - WASHINGTON, Nov. 1 (A7) A compromise was brewing to day between President Truman's request for continued federal control over the U.

Committee Allows Start On Projects WASHINGTON, Nov. 1 (Ah The senate commerce committee yesterday voted to allow a start on the big rivers and harbors Improvement program as soon as congress puts up the money. ix Larger projects in the authori sation include the Snake river, Washington, Oregon and Idaho, X30.000.000, and Umatilla dam, Oregon and Washington, S49,-470,000.- Treble Damage Suit On Court Docket PORTLAND, Nov. 1 (IP) An OPA suit asking treble damages from the Faulus Brothers Pack ing company, Salem, on a charge of refusing to file ceiling price schedules since Feb. 17 was on court dockets today. OPA asked the court compel the firm to comply with price regulations and collect three times the total overcharges. McKellar (D-Tcnn.), told report ers: "The whole question is one of time." President Truman wants the government to keep the agency for a year. The house would give it to the states in 30 days. "I doubt very much that the service could be turned back in 30 days," McKellar said. Mr. Truman said in his Tues day night address that millions of workers would want to look to "efficient and centralized employment offices" for jobs during the next year. State Controlled Before the war the service was operated by the states with the aid of federal funds. When the emergency came. President Roosevelt brought it under fed eral control because labor needs of war industries necessitated large scale migrations of work ers between the states. The house attached the provi sion for quick return to the states to a bill withdrawing $52,000,000,000 in war approp riations. Senate leaders obviously hop ed to increase the 30 days, but there were indications that any attempt to run the period out to many months would bump in to substantial opposition. Less than six weeks ago the senate voted 56 to 23 to return USES to the states within 90 days. The vote was on an amend ment by Senator Lucas (D-Ill.), usually a staunch administration supporter, to a jobless pay bill. That bill has since been bottled up in a house committee. Senator Reed (R-Kan.) asked the appropriations committee to hear him at a closed session as a witness for state control. "The USES is not an effi cient service under the federal government, never has been and so far as any of us. can see it never will be," he told reporters. "It has never rendered as good service as it did under the states but its costs have increas ed 400 per cent. "President Roosevelt promised when he took it over that it would be returned after the war. Now the federal govern ment is stalling." ALASKA Today's Land of Real Opportunities!
