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.
Sitdown Strike
Held Success
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) A
peaceful two-day "sitdown" by
some 3S young Negroes has
pierced another race barrier here.
The Katz drugstore yielded to
the persistent Negro youths who
solemnly lined its fountain, and
started serving them.

Youth Council of the NAACP, de
clared joyfully the Negroes will
invade other businesses within the

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.
Each hiker was responsible for
his own provisions, cooking and
sleeping gear.
Venable is Olympic Peninsula
manager for Black Ball Freight
service and a director of the Au
tomobile Club of Washington.
lars to 288 billions through June
30. 1960.
The House agreed to the re-
nuest, but the Senate Finance
Committee voted to allow the 288
billion ceiling only through next
June 30. The House and the Senate
committee also differed on how
much the permanent ceiling
now 275 billions should be ooosi
ed. The House voted for 285 bil
lions, the Senate committee for
233 billions.
3. Education House and Sen
ate conferees agreed yesterday on
a four-year program to provide
900 million dollars in federal aid
to educate the nation's young peo
ple, with emphasis on science and
mathematics.

provision, which the Senate had
voted but which the House had
turned down. It does provide 295
million dollars for student loans.
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.
