House Bill Seen as Step in V. F. W.-Legion Rivalry.

By HERBERT LITTLE Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.— The latest move hy veterans to ‘obtain pension for all World War widows and orphans has created a possiblity that Congress may investigate the whole problem of

service compensation. Rep. John M. Costello (D. Cal), is the author of a resolution for such an inquiry. Among other veterans’ problems, he would look into “the feasibility and desirability of eliminating from the pension rolls veterans who suffered no disability as a result of their service.” He said today he would ask the Rules Committee for early action on his measure. The resolution was introduced last summer but it was not pressed then, Now the Veterans of Foreign Wars have obtained a favorable report from the House Pensions Committee on a bill to pay “pensions” of $22 a month to widows of all World War veterans and $6 a month to their children under 16. It would cost ‘an estimated 34 million dollars the first ‘year, and more thereafter,

Leaders Surprised

This move caught Administration leaders in the House flat-footed, and they have not yet formulated a definite strategy to resist it. Speaker Bankhead admitted that he hadn't even known the bill was about to be reported. It was indicated that one leading possibility was ua thorough investigation by a special joint committee, Back of the sudden action of the Pensions Committee is a rivalry between the Veterans of Foreigh Wars and the American Legion for members among the three million World War veterans, and each organization has its own legislative program. The disabled war veterans are a third factor.

Three Committees Divide Work

The House itself has a three-way split-up in the handling of wveterans’ legislation. Veterans’ Committee handles bills touching on compensation for disabilities and other World War questions. The Pensions handles “pension” bills and Span-ish-American soldier problems. The Invalid Pensions Committee covers matters dealing with the Civil War and the Indian Wars. What has just happened is this: The Veterans of Foreign Wars had their “pension” bill introduced by Chairman Allard H. Gasque OD. S. C) of the Pensions Committee. It was referred to his committee, and after hearings it has been reported favorably. The higher rate of pension first proposed was trimmed to the scale proposed by the American Legion. The American Legion has a similar bill with the same rates of payment, but called “compensation” instead of “pension.” This was referred to the World War Veterans Committee, which also has been having hearings. The bill has not yet been reported, however, John Thomas Taylor, the Legion's legislative representative, indicated today that his organization would stand by its own bill.

| ‘WASHINGTON, Feb. 3 (U. P.).—~Chairman J. Warren ‘Madden of the National Labor

‘Relations Board, defending the | agency against charges of bias and incompetency, asserted today that demands for congressional investigation by Senator Burke (D. Neb.) are based on “misinformation,

half-truths and trivialities.”

Testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee which is ‘considering Senator Burke's resolution for an investigation, Mr. Madden admitted that the NLRB has made mistakes and has been “severely criticized,” but said “much of that criticism could have been avoided by compromising the principles of the (Wagner) act.” “We have chosen instead vigorously to put into effect the principles of the act,” Madden said. “And we shall continue to do so. “This law, in the field of labor relations, has been in legal effect now for about 10 months. We have had no starry-eved illusions about remaking the social order. We have had no commission to do anything of the kind. Our charter has been the statute itself, as enacted by the Congress. Our ambition has been to do an orderly, workmanlike, professional job within the limitations of that charter, Answers Burke's Charges The NLRB chairman answered point by point the charges and testimony made by Senator Burke before the Committee last week. He cited [ the difficulties of administering the [act during the period its constitu- | tionality was questioned. He then | pointed out that the Board has been | upheld in every case decided by the [Supreme Court and that all but one ['of the injunctions against the NLRB [now have been dissolved. He denied the Board was biased in favor of the Committee for In- | dustrial Organiaztion and asserted [that in 20 cases where the American Federation of I.abor and the I. O. contested the interpreta[tion of an appropriate bargaining [unit, the A. F. of L. won 14 decl[sions and the C. I. O. six.

‘Wagner Denies Lynch ‘Bill Violates Rights

| ‘WASHINGTON, Feb, 3 (U. P).— [Senator Wagner (D. N. Y.) declared in the Senate today that the Con[stitution presents no obsteales to | the pending Wagner-VanNuys An- | tilynching Bill but in fact “makes it the implied duty of the Federal Government to take responsible steps” to wipe out lynchings. The New York Senator, coauthor of the bill which now appears doomed by a filibuster, presented | the first argument in defense of the | legislation during a month of debate in which it has been denounced hy its foes, including Senator Borah (R. Tda.) as an unconstitutional invasion of states’ rights. Quoting frequently from Supreme Court decisions, Senator Wagner denied that the pending bill would be an invasion of state sovereignty and said: “This bill doss not deprive the states of an iota of their responsibility. On the contrary, it rests upon the foundation of state responsibility. It does not displace the states in the operation and enforcement | of state law against the action of | lynching mobs. Tt is concerned solely with violations by the states lof the Federal Constitution.

FHA LOOKS FOR BUILDING GAIN

WASHINGTON, Fab. 3. = The | Federal Housing Administration ex- | pects the mew Wagner-Steagall | Housing Act to produce a building | pickup in April or May, It looks [for the biggest gain in multipleunit dwellings for rental purposes. Reasons for this belief are: 1. A serious shortage of modern low rent homes, creating an attrac- | tive field for idle capital. 2. A presumption that builders will want to have their buildings finished before the October renting season closes. 3. Provisions of the act that will make for easier, safer and cheaper financing of multi-family projects. FHA Administrator Stewart MeDonald points out that America is no longer a nation of home-owners. | Fully half of American families [have the renting habit. In the past two years, Mr. McDonald says, only about 500,000 individual homes for home owtfers were built in spite

Only five cruisers were missing, away in foreign waters. He desired to test the capacity of Los Angeles’ breakwaters as a base for the full fleet. Approximately ships were massed there Monday. To test also the spead with which the full fleet could clear to open Sea, the Admiral sent the warships streaming through the two channels for hours.
