Thai they tot ready to wind up tht Mn day old special eesslon. The legislature acted suddenly atalnst the S00-pound, pink cheeked liquor lobbyist In the midst of tu rn uluioui debate over Oovernor Earl Warren's demand for atrlct utute against corrupt lobbying practices. Deabt ' Tate of the lobby proposal was In doubt. Briefly, tht situation was this: The senate passed the governor" bill yesterday. Tht assembly first decided to submit the problem of lobbying curbs to an Interim com mlttee. A few hours later, how. ever. It approved four of It own the administration's senate .bill, holding up a rote on passage until today. All this meant a race against time. The assembly waa ready to quit. It adopted and sent to the senate a resolution to recess today and return March when Its tegular budget session begins. In this hurry up atmosphere, the senate must decide which of the lobby bills It wants and then try to get together with the assembly on dlputed provisions. The word was out that an attempt would be made to get senate ap proval of a bill by Assemblyman John L. E. Collier (R). Los Ange les. One ot those passed by the as sembly. It is patterned after fed eral corrupt practices act. Like the others. It would require paid lob byists to disclose the source of their income and how they spend It. In acting against Samish. the leg islature chastised the colorful big time lobbyist. It voted to withdraw credentials of the one time senate clerk who aroused loud cries of singer because a national magazine (Colliers) published a photograph showing him tested with a dummy on his knee. "That's my legisla ture," he was quoted. Tht maga tint article was titled "The Secret Boss of California." Creeks' "The legislature has been accus ed ot being a bunch of crooks." declared Senator Jack B. Tenney (R). Los Angeles, "a bunch of Char ley McCarthys." It was Tenney who Introduced the anti-Samlsh resolution, got It ap proved 37 to 0 in the senate last night and saw It quickly pushed through the assembly. Just what the practical effect the resolution will have on the rotund representative of liquor and other Interests was as debatable as the fierce argument It stirred up. As a matte of fact In all his well-paid years around Sacramento, "Artie" ftamlsh has seldom appear ed before legislative committees. In recent years, be has not even both ered to come up to tht capital more than once In a while. Samish has operated from a hotel suite. There he has entertained.

Dtc. 21 WV-A strong move Is developing among lawmakers today for more diplo macy and fewer dollars In Amer ica's tight against communism. This looks like the big Issue In the international field when con gress meets again January 3. Right now the signs point to less spending in the Cold War with Rus siaand greater effort to draw non communist nations Into closer po litical alliance. Expectations The new year In congress Is ex pected to bring: 1. A move to get Atlantic Pact nations Into a conference as the first step to forming a political un ion. 2. New demands for full diplo matic recognition for Franco Spain and to draw Spain Into the anti communist front ot Western Europe. 3. An effort to make a drastic cut-back in European recovery spending. 4. A' struggle to reduce military spending at home and abroad. 5. An administration call for a three-year extension ot the peace time military draft. 6. Demands for a firm govern ment policy to block communism In Asia. 7. Opposition to any U. S. rec ognition of a Red regime in China even though Britain may grant rec ognition. Senator Kefauver (D-Tenn) will lead the senate tight for an At lantic union conference as a counter-pressure against communism on the European front. Hearings The senate foreign relations com mittee has promised public hear ings aa quickly as possible, he said. A resolution is pending signed by 21 senators authorizing the presi dent to call the conference. Senator McCarran (D-Nev). chair man of the senate judiciary com mittee, is quarterbacking maneuv ers for recognition and economic help for Spain, He Is among the senate Catholic group which with considerable Protestant support is opposed to the administration's stand on Spain, Secretary of State Acheson has said Spain will not get U. S. rec ognition until Franco gives his peo ple more basic freedoms. On the money side. It appears Europe will have to get along next year on less help from America. Many congressional leaders have made it clear they favor a sizeable cut in the economic cooperation ad ministration (EC A I funds. ECA got 15,055.000,000 In the first year ot the Marshall Plan. This year tht total was cut to 13,778. 000,000.

Gable Ends Mourning, VVeds Late Doug Fairbanks Widow HOLLYWOOD, Dec. 31 (PV "Tht king has a new lady a laughing, lovely blonde reminiscent In many ways ot the girl whose death kept him lonely ana distant for almost eight years. Clark Oab'.e Is honeymooning somewhere today with the former Lady Sylvia Stanley, the J-year-old widow of Douglas Fairbanks Br. They were married In a surprise ceremony late yesterday at a lux urious guest ranch 40 miles north ot Santa Bartnre. Calif. After the wedding, they departed for points unknown. Sometime today or tomorrow they are expected to return to Holly wood. In time to sail tomorrow on the Lurllne for a two-to-four-weck junket to Honolt-lu. Old Friends "The king." so-called because ot his box-office drawing power, and Lady 8ylvia long have been friends. She arrived here about 10 days ago. but there were no rumors of an engagement. The new Mrs. Oable divorced Lord Stanley ot Alderley IS months ago. Oable, 4S. Is her fourth hus band. She was divorced In 135 by Lord Ashley, who named Fairbanks another 11.000 000.000 from next year's funds. Some lawmakers are demanding even deeper cuts. Since the administration always has planned for a year-by-year cut back In ECA spending, the only question now Is how big It will be. Administration leaders will push for approval ot President Truman's -point four" program of aid to backward areas of the world. Most of this would be done by exporting American Industrial and technical know-how and by encour aging American investments overseas. The administration's most vulner able point at the moment appears to be the China policy. Republicans are pruned for a series of fresh attacks on the "wait until the dust settles" China policy. This issue has been pointed up In recent weeks by the collapse of the Nationalist armies and the gov ernment's flight to the island fort ress ot Formosa. Quirk Policy The government's future policy In the Far East is expected to develop rapidly in the next few weeks. Rov ing Ambassador Philip Jessup has gone to Asia to study the situation. His report Is likely to form the basis of any new policy developed. Whether this will satisfy congress remains to be seen. as correspondent. Gable's first wife waa Josephine Dillon. They were divorced six y Jars later and In 1031 he married Rla Langham. Their di vorce came In 1830. Shortly afterward Oable took his third bride. Actress Carole Lom bard. Both had a great capacity for tun. Once sue gave him a ham as a tribute to his acting. On an other occasion. It was a Jalopy, painted white and decorated with red hearts, as a Valentine present. Oable, an addict of fine cars, put a high-powered engine In the an cient crate and drove It tor a year, Fun They clashed the first time they met but the next day a cage full ot doves arrived at Oable's apart ment. This waa standard procedure thereafter whenever they quarreled. Miss Lombard waa killed In 1942. The plane carrying her home from a war bond selling tour crashed near Las Vrg's. Nev, carrying Carole, her mother. Mrs. Elisabeth Peters, and 1 others to their deaths. Oable mourned openly for months. His last word from her had been a message from Amarlllo, Tex. which said. "Hey, pappy, you'd bet ter get Into trus man's army." Enlists Oable enllsteo, demanding com bat action. He was awarded the air medal and rose from private to major In the air force. He made several missions over Oermany as a gunner. Nervous Oable was nervous. Lady Sylvia calm when they obtained a mar riage license earlier In the day at San Luis Obispo. Calif. The new Mrs. Oable Is a British national and a former chorus girl. She was know i as Lady Ashley and Lady Stanley while she was mar ried to her tilled first and third husbands, but as Is customary, dropped the title with her divorce. Since their first public appear ance together at a party three months ago, Oable .and his bride have become a frequent twosome. "But." as a press agent sum mered yesterday, "no one expected this." Oable grinned after the cere mony: "I asked her yesterday It she'd marry me and she said 'yes.' " Then he added: "I have had this on my mind for some time, . . I Just suddenly decided to pop the question." The bride said she was "com pletely swept off my feet. . . I answered 'yes' aa fast as I could."
