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.
