OPA Revival
Meets Delay
In Senate
WASHINGTON, July 5 lP
'Another weekend without price
controls became a certainty to
"day when Majority Leader
Barkley (D-Ky.) delayed until
Monday senate action on a bill
' to revive OPA.
At the same time Barkley
. criticized Senator Wherry (R
I Neb.) for inviting all members
I of the senate to Join in a series
J of amendments that would elim
J inate controls over meal, milk,
i butter and similar products,
i OPA Administrator Paul Por
j ter called on congress today to
l revise the OPA extender bill
I still further to bring it into line
J with President Truman's recom
! mendations.
I The bill as amended by the
I senate banking committee over
the protests of Senator Taft (R
j Ohio), Porter said, does not go
i Jar enough. He said it contains
I "undesirable features."
! As the senate headed toward
I debate on the substitute for the
I OPA bill Mr. Truman has ve-
toed, Porter issued this state
j ment:
I "My comments yesterday af
l ternoon upon leaving the senate
1 banking and currency commit
J tee applied only to the Barkley
l amendment as a substitute for
t the Taft and Wherry amend
J menLs to the price control bill,
j Not Blanket Approval
I "It did not represent a blan
j ket approval of the bill as a
! whole as reported out by the
I committee.
I "I still hope that congress
j will pass a bill that will con-
form to the president's recom
l mendations in his veto message,
I and that other undesirable fea
J tures will be eliminated."
While Porter did not elabor
I ate on provisions of the bill he
j regards as objectionable, it was
j understood that these include:
I (1) Amendments which out
I law a requirement that manu
J facturers produce low-cost
j clothing, (2) a provision for spe
i cial pricing of cotton and wool
J en textiles, (3) an amendment re
J storing the prewar profit mar

Illinois Central
Faces Walkout
CHICAGO. July 5 UPh-W. M.
Dolan, deputy president of the
Brotherhood of Railroad Train
men, said today that the decis
ion to call a strike of the mem
bership on the Illinois Central
railroad was "the result of a
breakdown of collective bargain
ing on the handling and disposi
tion of grievances."
The strike, he said, was called
to be come effective at 10 p. m.
on July 21 with the approval of
the office of President A. F.
Whitney in Cleveland.
The deputy president said that
he had been "trying for two
years to compose the grievances,
which extend back over a neriod
of years some as long ago as l
1D37.
The grievances, Dolan asserted,
total more than TOO cases and
involve time payment claims,
dismissals and workmen held
out of service.

No Bad Accidents
No serious accidents were re
ported for yesterday's show, al
though there were several nasty
spills. Early in the afternoon
one of the bareback broncs
plunged into the grandstand in
C section, but no one was in
jured, and the horse fell back
into the arena without hurts.
One broken horn resulted in the
bulldogging event, but no other
stock was injured.
The brahma bulls caused some
delay in the show due to the fact
that no hot shots were available
on the first day and they had
to be dragged into the chutes
with ropes. One brahma, in
keeping with the legends that
have grown up about their hair
trigger tempers, plowed through
the north gate, spilling railsit
ters, .horses and gates all over
the north end of the arena.
There were no injuries.
Special events in the show in
cluded Chock Mowdy and his

clown, Jimmy Dixon, with his

and capping the act by making
the bull kneel and place his head

It is apparent to any clear
thinker that any rise in price
because of the loss of a subsidy
isn't a REAL rise, because the
subsidy came out of taxes that
everybody has to pay.
.
""THE situation may yet get out
-1 of hand. We have to return
to control of prices at least in
some form. But in these days
when because of the spectacular
political collapse of price con
trol we are struggling to rea, pt
our economy to the normal tree
market system, let's at least
keep clear in our minds what IS
happening.
, The experiment forced upon
us by the quarrel among the pol

Senate Passes
Bill On Rivers
WASHINGTON, July 5 (flV
The senate approved a $1,000,
000,000 rivers and harbors bill
today after rejecting a proposal
to eliminate authorization for a
$116,000,000 Tennessee-Tombig-bee
waterway in the lower Miss
issippi valley.
Passage of the bill came on
voice vote. No record is made of
how individual senators vote in
such instances.
The senate restored to the bill
a $71,000,000 Foster creek reser
voir in Washington. This pro
ject had been stricken from the
bill by the senate commerce com
mittee. Largest item in the legisla
tion, which makes no actual ap
propriation of money, is the Ar
kansas river program estimated
to cost nearly $500,000,000. The
bill carries a $150,000,000 ini
tial authorization for the pro
ject. The measure now goes to the
house for action on senate
changes. Unless the house ac
cepts them, the bill then will go
to a conference committee to ad
just house and senate differ
ences. Soviets Refuse Help
