(AP) i AFL-CIO chiefs mapped plans to day to try to get Congress to cut from Senate and Hnuse labor con trol bills the provisions to which organized labor objects most. The differing bills passed by the two houses are now before a joint conference committee. The union . leaders expressed dislike for both, but held some hope that the conference group might re write a bill to salvage what or ganized labor considers the better features of each. That hope obviously ran count er to the mood of many Congress members pushing for a bill they consider strong enough to control racketeering and other abuses shown by Senate investigations in a segment of labor-management relations. The AFL-CIO leaders are at lending executive council sessions in this Pocono Mountain resort area. They still are trying to fig ure the 229-201 House vote last week that upset House leadership plans and put over a labor, con trol bill personally endorsed by President Eisenhower. It was the measure least desired by union leaders, who had criticized as too severe the much milder version passed earlier by the Senate.

(AP) - All year long Coloradoans have been urged to grow beards to help celebrate the "Rush to the Rockies centennial. Now the Denver Centennial Authority is putting its weight be hind a campaign to make the whiskers disappears. It announced a beard-shaving contest Sept. 12 at the Pioneer Village in Civic Cen ter. The man who shaves the quick est and cleanest will get a prize. and decided to reverse organizeo lapor's six-year expulsion of the International Longshore men s Assn. on corruption cliarges. The council declared that the steel strike is a symptom of a business attempt to "reverse the whole pattern of labor relations in industrial America." The 60.000-member ILA was ex pelled from the former AFL in 1053 on grounds it was dominated by hoodlums and engaged in rack eteer practices.

The council attached to its re instatement resolution a number of conditions, including the right of the council to suspend the union again by majority vote during the next two -years if- it should return to its erring ways. , Much of the talk centered on the role of House' Speaker Sam Ray burn (D-Texi.
