Saturday, June 21, 1952 Tentative Vote Cuts Most Consumer Price Controls Another Attack Planned On Defense Production Wednesday WASHINGTON, lift price controls reorganize the wage The ripped and production act faces next Wednesday. June 21 UP- -The house from. stabilization virtually all board. consumer tattered extension of the other sharp changes First big vote then will be on provision requesting Pres. Truman to invoke the Taft-Hartley law junction proceedings in the steel strike.

Little Chance With coalition of Republicans and southern Democrats in trol i of the legislation, tion leaders concede they have little chance to block adoption of that proposal. Absences have sapped the administration's voting strength. The senate wrote a similar request into its version of the sion law. From the standpoint of the bilization agencies, the price decontrol amendment hit hardest of all. Sponsored by Rep.

Talle (R- Iowa) it was tentatively approved by a 146 to 88 standing vote yesterday. This provision would require the lifting of price controls on articles or services which (1) have sold below ceiling for three months, or (2) are in adequate or surplus supplyine amendment defines an ticle as being in adequate supply when it isn't being rationed or allocated. Nothing is rationed now, and only a few metals are under allocation controls. Chairman Spence (D-Ky), who opposed the Talle amendment, told the house that if it stayed in the bill it would amount to killing price controls. The provision for reorganization of the wage stabilization board (WSB) and redefinition of its functions to strip it of any power to intervene in labor disputes was passed by a standing vote of 176 to 61.

Under this amendment, majority of the members would be representatives of the public, although labor and management also would have representatives appointed by the President. The public members would be subject to senate confirmation. The board would formulate and recommend general wage stabilization policies, but would be barred from taking any hand in labor disputes. The present WSB has come der heavy congressional criticism for its union shop recommendation in the steel dispute. These and other tentative changes in the bill are subject to possible roll calls next week.

But Truman's lieutenants showed tie optimism about overturning the decisions. The house bill calls for one year extension, until June 30, 1953, of the wage, price, rent control and allocations sections of the deTense production act. It would abolish credit controls. Present Law Expires The present law is due to expire week from next Monday. Resumption of house debate Wednesday leaves only five possible working days to complete t.ie house bill, send it to conference for adjustment of differences with the senate, and get it to the President.

Accordingly, there already is talk of possible short extension of the present law. WSB Reconsiders Charlotte Decision 'Aluminum Extrusion Case To Undergo Review The Michigan wage stabilization board said it will reconsider its recent decision denying proposed 10-cent an hour general wage increase for employes of Aluminum Extrusion, of Charlotte. The board said it will reconsider the case after an appeal filed by officials of the Charlotte firm. Labor members of the 12-man tripartite board dissented from the original decision. At the time, the board said that the proposed increase, added to existing base rates and bonus earnings, would raise hourly rates of employes at the Charlotte company above those paid for comparable skills in Lansing, Battle Creek and Jackson.

Accoring to M. S. Ryder, regional WSB chairman, the company has now submitted additional information with its appeal, and the whole case will be reviewed in the light of the added data. Tavern Transfer Is Denied by LCC State liquor control commission Saturday denied "in the discretion of the commission" an application for transfer of a tavern license from Victor B. Borejka and Julius S.

In matter of minutes, the flames burst through the wooden shingle roof, and firemen battled the fire for nearly an hour before all the flames were extinguished. The ruins still smouldered at 9 a. m. Fire department officials said Glen Swegle, who had recently moved into the front, first floor apartment, admitted that he was responsible for the fire.

Swegle told firemen he fell asleep while smoking about 4:30 a. m. and was awakened by smoke coming from a burning day bed pillow in his apartment. He said he summoned another resident of the apartment and stamped out the fire in the pillow. Declined to Call One informant told firemen he urged Swegle to call the fire but that the latter declined.

"He didn't want to call them, so we went back to bed." the informant said. "He took the pillow back into his apartment with him." Capt. Ernest Kopietz, city fire said Swegle told him he marshal pillow on the floor between refrigerator and a pasteboard clothes closet and went back to sleep. the fire in the pillow started up again, spread to the clothes closet and then to the entire building," Capt. Kopietz said.

The fire marshal said Swegle will not be prosecuted because "there isn't any law we could get him on." He said a recent state law prohibits smoking in bed in an apartthe ment, but building owner in urder to requires complaint of make an arrest. Hoffmeyer, the building owner, told firemen he did not wish to make a complaint. Awakened by Heat Mrs. Norma Andrews of Hubnight in the third floor apartment bardston, who was spending the of Alton Andrews, her law, said that she was awakened by heat and intense smoke. "My husband (Owen) and I sat up in bed and we couldn't see a thing for the smoke," Mrs.

Andrews said. "Everybody was yelling and running around, and we tried to get down the back stairs, but the flames and smoke drove us back." The Andrews brothers--Alton and Owen--said they crawled out a third floor window onto a small roof, intending to go up the back stairs and rescue the women. "But we got out on that little roof and we couldn't get down and we couldn't get back," Owen drews said. The smoke was awful. We were both choking." Yelled to Wife Mr.

Andrews said he yelled to his wife and Emma Teatsworth, Alton Andrews' housekeeper, to get out onto the back porch and wait there. "But I was afraid they were goners," he said later. "Those flames were curling up around the porch floor and almost burning their toes." When firemen arrived, they erected ladders at the front and rear of the building and started taking people off the roof. Removed first were Janet Derke, 15, of Route 1, Bath, and her cousin, Edna Adams, 21, formerly of Route 5, St. Johns.

P. Fight Started Selection Delay Asked Corrections Commissioner Asks Wait in Naming Permanent Warden Another delay in the appointment of permanent warden at Jackson prison was asked by Earnest C. Brooks, corrections commissioner. In a letter to the state civil service commission, Brooks said he would like to await administrative reforms now going on at the prison following the April riots and the report of a newly appointed citizens committee. Julian N.

Frisbie has been acting warden since 1948. He placed first in civil service examination for the permanent position last February, but Brooks had made no move to fill the job until the prison riots broke out. The commission on June 2 gave Brooks 10 days in which to make permanent appointment. At the end of that time, he asked for other extension. Yesterday's letter asked for still more time.

Brooks said that the governor's fact-finding committee studying the riots reported number of factors, including some criticism of the warden." He said the projected citizens committee study is not intended "to make judgments on personnel, but the committee's findings may well affect our personnel Head of Blind Aid Group Re-elected" John Noland of Lansing was elected president of the Michigan Association of Workers for the Blind at the Friday afternoon session of the organization's 27th biennial convention at the Michigan School for the Blind.

(For has been seething supporters Eisenhower and RobThe question is: whose entitled to the Star state at the convention, come into being. of the explosive and of this red-hot nomination for may be a decisive In view of its veteran Austin has came into AUSTIN, June 21 UP -It's two-gun Texas political warfare in rugged frontier style that Gen. Dwight Eisenhower steps into tomorrow when he visits his birthplace at Denison, on the Red river.

It's showdown between old guard Republicans, who inherited the political dynasty of the late Rene B. Creager, and a well-organized band of G. O. P. newcomers, who say they want to put some new life into the old party.

That's what it amounts to from the strictly Texas viewpoint. Nationally, however, Texas' 38 convention votes could well be the key to winning the Republican nomination. Thirty of the old guard's tion are known to be for Sen. Taft, four for Eisenhower, and four for Gen. Douglas MacArthur.

Thirty-three of the rival tion are instructed for Eisenhower and five are instructed for Taft. The two opposing delegations appeared after the battle at Mineral Wells May 27, each charging the other with illegal tactics. Accredited Taft Delegates In the contests from 24 counties preceding the Mineral Wells vention, the old guard-dominated (state executive committee generally accredited the Taft delegates. It gave two to the Eisenhower peoand split two. The Eisenhower faction maintained it had majorities and that its conventions were called and held according to state and party law.

They said in each case they had taken the declarations of party loyalty, as set up by the state executive committee. In reply, the Taft people said the precinct conventions were swamped with "overnight Republicans" who were really new trying to muscle in and take over the conservative state G. O. P. organiztaion.

The old guard contends that Eisenhower's backers advertised in writing that voters did not have to be bona fide Republicans to take part in Republican conventions. The Eisenhower people will take evidence to Chicago designed to show that in some instances the Taft Republicans did not show up at county conventions, called under the law, but held rump sessions later. What's a Republican? DAVE CHEAVENS Essentially, the dispute pivots on the question: what constitutes Republican in Texas? It is not an easy one to answer. Many Republicans in the past have openly taken part in Democratic affairs on the state level, but continued to vote the Republican ticket in national elections. The last legislature completely rewrote the election code but it has not been fully and clearly, interpreted in the courts.

sides use it to support their claims that they are true Republicans who conducted their conventions legally. Moreover, the state supreme court recently ruled, 5-4, that the Taft-Eisenhower delegate fight was Republican family fuss over which it had no jurisdiction. The court said the party itself must settie it. This was a defeat for the Eisenhower people who had asked the court to nullify Taft conventions held in six major cities. In a federal court decision, Judge Ben Rice ruled that Republicans alone can take part in G.

O. P. precinct conventions. This was in the case of a man who was a candidate for office as a Democrat but who wanted to force Republicans to admit him to a precinct convention. May Define Qualifications In the final analysis, the Republican national committee, and then perhaps the convention as a whole, may have to define the qualifications for being a Texas Republican.

In fact, the G. O. P. national command has ruled the fight must go to the national committee. The rival delegations will go before the national committee armed with live witnesses, affidavits and court rulings variously interpreting the state's involved and often conflicting election laws.

One will be led by stocky, swarthy Henry Zweifel of Fort Worth, lawyer active in the party for more than 45 years. He was close associate of Creager, who dominated the G. O. P. in Texas for many years.

Zweifel ran Herbert Hoover's Texas campaign in 1928, when the state went Republican for the first and only time in a century. He ran the Dewey campaign in 1948. Since then Zweifel has been Taft man. Top man in the Eisenhower team is Jack Porter, of Houston, Porter was one of the original Eisenhower boosters here. He traveled thousands of miles and spent a good part of the last two years organizing Eisenhower clubs in sections of Texas where there just hadn't been any Republicans before.

These neighborhood conventions decide on delegates to the county conventions -which in turn determine membership in the state convention, The split, resulting in two separate state conventions, developed when the G. O. P. state committee generally cold-shouldered the Eisenhower delegates, although the general's backers gued they had a majority. Zweitel says the Eisenhower pecple were actually Democrats, ing to cross party lines, that percent of them were folks who would like to see the general nominated by both parties.

Porter said the refusal to the Eisenhower delegates was "traud" and "steal." Another Elsenhower supporter charged that wilful little group of little men" was trying to keep itself in power. Porter has asserted the old guard leadership is more interested in I patronage than in winning eleetions, that it wants to hold down membership in the party. Zwetfel says this is ridiculous, and points to his 1928 service for Hoover evidence of his two party -alms in Texas. The Taft-Eisenhower battle tually started in 1950 when Porter challenged Zweitel's bid to succeed Creager in the old guard leadership and lost. Both men say they are pleased the dispute has been referred to the national committee.

Zwelfel said the accusations by the Eisenhower leaders "can't be sustained by lung power." Porter said he was glad the committee has recognized the election laws under which his people held their conventions. That's the kind of trap Elserthower is getting into here. He announced he would have a few words to say about it. municipal court judge and in his former position as prosecuting attorney.
