FRIDAY, AUGUST 22. 1958 HERALD AXD NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE 7 A Congress IPaoslnies Fair Closing WASHINGTON (AP) Th home-stretch rush for adjourn ment was on in Congress today. The Senate worked to clear its calendar ol several prime items, including the 3'i-billion-dollar for eign aid money bill. The House, having taken care of most major matters, considered a six-billion-dollar . appropriations measure to finance a score of gov-, ernment agencies. President Eisenhower vetoed an earlier bill for these agencies be cause it contained half a billion dollars for the civil service retire ment fund. He said the payment was unnecessary. The target date for adjournment remained tomorrow night. But Giant AFL-CIO Pledges Backing To Auto Workers In Case Of Industry Tieup ; FOREST PARK, Pa. (AP)-The AFL-CIO has decided to throw its financial and manpower re tources behind Walter Reuther's United Auto Workers in event of motor industry strike. The federation's ruling Execu tive Council yesterday created a seven-man committee of its mem bers to "give practical support organizationally and financially to the UAW" if an auto strike devel ops. A statement adopted unanimous- first Congress must dispose of these major pieces of legislation, among others: 1. Foreign Aid The House passed a bill calling for $3,078,- 000.000 in military and economic help to other nations this year. The Senate Appropriations Com mittee, taking up the measure after eruption of the Middle East crisis, boosted the amount to $3,518,092,500. But this still is 432 million dollars below the amount originally requested by the President. 2. Debt Ceiling The administra tion, faced with mounting red ink spending, asked Congress to in crease the federal debt limit now temporarily 280 billion dol- Police Hold Death Suspect HONOLULU (API-Police held a tall, handsome 21-year-old Pearl Harbor Marine today in the stran gling of a widow, whose nude body was found in a Waikiki alley. Authorities did not release his name immediately. Police and military investiga tors, acting on information sup plied by a bartender, arrested the man at his barracks. The victim, Helen Melvina Peo ples, 55, formerly of Cameron, Tex., had been drinking in a bar with the Marine and he paid for the drinks with a check which led investigators to him. Detectives said they found three pairs of women's panties in the Marine's locker. Mrs. Peoples was strangled with her own panties, apparently after a furious fight. Her face was battered and her large earrings were ripped off. Police said the Marine admitted fighing with the victim Thursday and dragging her into an alley but was hazy on details. Air Force Dud Misses Children -ATLANTA (AP) - Six children were playing in a supply com pany's sand bin when they heard ' a "big noise in the air." An object landed 50 feet from them. They scooted in all direc tions. It turned out to be a dummy practice rocket which had fallen from an F89D jet from Tyndall Air Force Base, Fla. An Air Force spokesman said it carried no explosives and was strictly for dummy practice use. It was about 4 feet long and weighed 18 pounds. ly by the council said General Motors, Ford and Chrysler have refused to bargain in good faith on wage and other demands raised by Reuther s UAW in five months of bargaining. "The UAW is continuing its efforts to arrive at an equitable settlement without a strike," the council statement said. "But time is running out, and so is the pa tience of the workers." Named to the AFL-CIO's UAW Aid Committee were labor union heads George Harrison, James B. Carey. David Dubinsky, Dave Mc Donald, Albert Hayes, Joseph Beirne and Joseph Keenan. They represent rail, steel, clothing, electrical and other types of workers. The UAW help was voted as the AFL-CIO chiefs wound up a week long session here at a summer camp in the Pocono Mountains. Major action in the sessions was to isolate the ousted Teamsters Union further from the rest of or ganized labor and to move against alleged corrupt conditions in other unions, among them the Carpen ters, Restaurant Workers and Butchers unions. Another council statement blast ed President Eisenhower in the strongest terms yet used by the labor leaders against him. Accusing him of political chi canery of the most obvious char acter, they blamed the adminis tration for the death in the House of a Senate-passed labor control bill they had backed. The AFL-CIO leaders said the administration allied itself with what they called "reactionary businessmen and corrupt Team sters" to kill the bill sponsored by Senators John F. Kennedy (D- Mass) and Irving M. Ivese iR-NY). Eisenhower, in calling Wednes day for a labor bill along the lines he had proposed in January, said the Kennedy-Ives measure wasn't strong enough to combat corrup tion in labor unions and protect the rights of workers. The alleged reasons given by the president for this politically inspired action do not stand the test of common sense." said the AFL-CIO statement, adopted after Secretary of Labor Mitchell tried in a personal visit to sell the fed eration leaders on Eisenhower's ews. The council decided to hold its next two quarterly meetings in Washington, . in November and February, and to hold the next bi ennial federation convention in San Francisco Sept. 17, 1959.

Hikers Wind Up Protest Over Road LAPUSH (Clallam County) (AP) Seventy hikers, inspired by the beauties of the Olympic Peninsula coastal area they had leisurely but publicly been enjoying f o r three days, tramped onto Rialto beach near here Thursday' after noon. They were greeted by a man and boy who, objecting to the pur pose of the hike, brandished signs protesting it. "Super Highways for 47 States but Primitive Areas for Us," read one. "Bird Watchers Go Home, proclaimed another. The two-man demonstration was staged by Port Angeles business man Larry V. Venable and his ;il-year-old son. Th'ey were object ing 10 me nmers oojecuons to a coast highway through the area. In fact, the 70 l:ad walked spe cifically ' to dramatize their pro test against the road. The hikers' leader, Supreme Court Justice William O. Doug las, stepped forward to shake Venable s hand. "Sorry you couldn't be with us on the hike," the jurist said. Then the hikers went to Doug las cabin at nearby Mora to rest. They had been out of touch with civilization during the 22-m i 1 e hike except by two-way radio.

The original Senate program would have cost $1,300,000,000 and the House version 910 million dol lars. Two bills which touched off major fights got the ax yesterday. The Senate, after some parlia mentary maneuvering, killed a measure aimed at preventing the Supreme Court from knocking down state laws not in direct con flict with federal laws on the same subject. The measure, opposed by the administration, was returned to the Senate Judiciary Committee by a 41-40 vote. The effect was to kill it for this session. The House, after three days of debate, ended a hassle over leg islation to subsidize the domestic minerals industry by killing the bill 182-159. In other actions yesterday: 1. House and Senate conferees agreed on legislation to extend the government's security program to all federal employes not just those in sensitive jobs. 2. The House adopted a resolu tion calling on the U.N. General Assembly to consider setting up a permanent police force to patrol areas where peace is threatened. The Senate has passed a similar resolution. 3. The Senate and House passed a compromise $3,697,305,478 catch all money bill, with most of the money allocated to the Atomic Energy Commission. The Senate had wanted a requirement that the new space agency get advance congressional approval of its proj ects. But a compromise was reached on a provision requiring clearance for the first year only. 4. Congress completed action on legislation providing $25,000 year ly pensions to lormer presidents, $10,000 to their widows and giving free office space and mailing privileges to former chief executives.
