Labor's Influence With Congress Hits Low Ebb As Senate Votes Curbs WASHINGTON, May 14 (" Or ganised labor'! Influence with con gress stands at It lowest point In more than a decade today. There are strong indications that tern curbs on union activity may be written into law even over a pos sible presidential veto. The 68 to 34 vote by which the senate yesterday approved Its bill providing lor extensive regulation of organised labor's activities almost exactly matched the percentage by Paving To Start June 1 June 1 has been tentatively set as the starting date for paving the 15 "4-mile stretch of state road line between Tulelake and Doms, ac cording to Fredrick W. Haielwood, division engineer, California division of highways. Hazelwood In his report to the Siskiyou county board of super visors, said that the road unit would probably be finished some time tills year. He added that (601,431 of federal and state match ing funds and $126,000 from other state sources had already been al located for the construction, leav ing a probable deficit of $18305. The supervisors, in considering the deficit, authorized Hazelwood to use any money necessary for comple tion of the road. Hazelwood had asked for the authorization after he stated that he could not legally use any other funds without the consent of the supervisors. The Utah Construction company has been awarded the contract for construction of the road, which will provide a direct connection between the Tulelake region and U. S. high way 87, specifically between the towns of Tulelake and Dorris. Teacher Pay Meet Slated With additional returns piling tip a huge lead for the budget, the county school board has scheduled a meeting tomorrow for signing teacher contracts on the higher sal ary scale. Latest reports showed the budget rote as follows: Yes 303. No. 10. Only Beatty remained to be counted when this compilation was made. The budget exceeds the 6 per cent limitation, requiring the ap proval that was given by voters. which the house on April 17 voted a much more stringent measure. In the house, opponents cast 25.8 per cent of the 308 to 107 vote. In Die senate, they registered 36 per cent. Core of Support This core of support, representing only aoout one-iourtn oi the mem bership of the two houses, marks a sharp decline from the days when unions could stop In one house or the other almost any legislation they regarded as punitive. Falling in that, they could muster the needed support to sustain a veto. This was demonstrated when the house failed 11 months ago to override President Truman's veto of ' the Case labor disputes bill. On that to 13& tally, union supporters mustered several more than the one-third-plus-one of the votes they needed. The prospect that this year's ex panded version of the Case bill finally will find its way Into the law books was enhanced but by no means assured in the senate's vote yesterday. Compromise Version .. In the first place, a senate-house conference committee must work out a compromise version. If it fol lows the tough form that many house members would like, leaders unquestionably will be able to force Its acceptance by both houses. But the chances that it would be vetoed by President Truman would be In creased. A milder edition, more In line with that approved by the senate, apparently would encounter less risk of a veto. Mr. Truman has kept his own counsel about what he Intends to da But if he vetoes the measure he finally receives, Capitol Hill un doubtedly will witness the most in tensive campaign in years by or ganized labor and administration leaders to get the veto sustained. It requires two-thirds approval of those voting in each house to override.
