A total of 750 million dollars has been set aside for this type of work and officials estimate that the funds provided by the communities undertaking the projects will bring the total value of construction to more than $1,660,000,000. This is greater than previous non-Federal | combined.

Congress Adds 6 Bureaus
@&.
tive Bill Loss
By HERBERT LITTLE | Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, June 16.—Congress, since defeating the Reorganization Bill, has added six new bureaus to the Federal Government, a survey of the bills awaiting President Roosevelt's signature showed today. The bills provide for three new independent boards and for three
ments. Mr. Roosevelt has eight to 10 ached him in the final days of the
has 83 active independent bureaus that are listed in the Congressional Directory, in addition to many inactiv eones, pius the 10 Cabinet departments, each of which has seven to 20 bureaus and divisions.
Other Expansions Noted
Several other expansions of Federal activity were enacted by the session just ended. Two enlarge the Federal Trade Commission's work in promoting truth in advertising and curbing the advertising of harmful food and drugs. The spend-ing-lending bill will require the revival and expansion of the now almost demobilized PWA setup, under Secretary of the Interior Ickes. The Wage-Hour Bill will increase considerably the research and inspection work of the Labor Department. The work of the U.S. Children's Bureau is expanded by the child-iabor provisions of the same bill. The increase is probably the largest in any one session since the first New Deal Congress, which set an all-time high.
20 New Judgeships
The present session also created 20 new Federal judgeships, five of them on the Circuit Court of Appeal. President Roosevelt's request for six additional $10.000-a-year assistants. fell by the wayside, along with the Reorganization Bill's proposals for consolidation of bureaus and creation of a new Department of Public Welfare. By signing the bills after Congress adjourns, the President will be able to appoint administrators who can serve without Senate confirmation until next January. They will be paid regularly, whereas if he had signed the bill prior to adjournament they would receive no pay un-
[til confirmed—and if the Senate in
January should reject them, they would not be paid at all for their six months of service,

Rail Unemployment
Pool Plan Passed
WASHINGTON, June 16 (U. P). —A bill to set up a national pool system of railroad unemployment insurance, separate from the Social Security Act, awaited President Roosevelt's signature today. The Senate completed Congressional action on it yesterday after Senator Wheeler (D. Mont.) had substituted a House bill by Rep. Robert Crosser (D. O.) for his own in order to speed final enactment. The bill was strongly opposed by the Association of American Rail-
| roads, which represents the manage-
ment of all major railroads. Both Houses of Congress threw out bills to extend Government financial] aid to the rail industry. Railway labor opposed and succeeded in defeating a bill to expand RFC loans to railroads when management refused to withdraw plans for a 15 per cent wage cut July 1. Rep. Crosser’s bill provides that railroad unemployment insurance, now operative in some 29 states which have passed unemployment insurance laws to conform to the Social Security Act, be taken away
| from the Social Security Board and
the Railroad Reon a national
administered by tirement Board basis.

Wage-Hour Measure Vietory Is Climax in ‘Comeback.’
(Continued from Page One)
he literally threw the bill back at Congress.
Rallies His Strength
The strategy was based on the belief that a great majority of the electorate was still with him. To rally this strength, he went West last fall and, in a number of appearances, received a triumphal reception that compared with his western campaign trip in 1936. On the heels of that venture he called Congress into extra session in midNovember and laid down a program. Still the impact of his personal strength did not affect Congress, for the special session adopted only one of his four major recommendations —the new Farm Bill. He suffered another defeat on the Wage-Hour Bill when the House recommitted it, and subsequently he also lost a close decision in the House on the Reorganization Bill. . The Southern wing of his party led the successful revolt on the Wage-Hour Bill. The measure was put on cold storage for the session, to all intents and purposes. Nobody thought it had a chance. But the President did not give up. Right into the deep South he went, to Gainesville, and there, during a celebration of the rebuilding of that northeast Georgia town, he struck boldly at the “feudalists,” as he called them, who were refusing to pay decent wages. Southerners in Congress, for the most part, were deeply resentful. Backed by Electorate But in the South it worked as a leaven among the rank-and-file workers. They spoke in two significant elections where the Wage-Hour Bill was the issue—in the Alabama and Florida primaries where two champions of the measure, Senators Hill and Pepper, came through with flying colors. This was the beginning of Mr. Roosevelt's personal political recovery. At the moment, political experts agree that the President is again in control of his party. A ‘good many predict, on the basis of the present situation, that he will still have control at the 1940 convention. But the fight is still on. Vice President Garner still has visions of turning the party back to more conservative channels. He is now active in seeking delegates in the South to support him nominally—and perhaps as an actual candiate—in 1940,

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
NEW DEAL WINS HOOSIERS’ HELP IN LEGISLATION
Minton Follows Leadership |
Of Party; VanNuys Is Often Recalcitrant.
Times Special WASHINGTON, June 16. —Indiana’s congressional delegation cast a majority vote with the New Deal | Administration throughout this ses-
sion of the 75th Congress, a review of the roll-calls on major legisla- | tion disclosed today. Senator Minton, assistant whip, followed the party leadership throughout the session, as did Reps. Schulte, Farley, Griswold, Jenckes, Greenwood, Crowe Gray and Lar- | rabee for the most part. Having obtained national promin- | ence in his fight against President Roosevelt's Supreme Court reform plan, Senator VanNuys remained rather recalcitrant so far as Democratic party leadership was concerned. He was absent or paired on several roll-calls, but usually his stand on the measure, had he been there, was announced, The senior Senator is in Indiana while the final votes of the closing days are recorded. Before leaving Washington he announced a pair with Senator Vandenberg (R. Mich).
Ludlow Sometimes Opposed
Rep. Louis Ludlow opposed the leadership in several instances and it took the President, Speaker Bankhead and the combined high command to stop consideration of his war referendum amendment proposal. Rep. John W. Boehne Jr. battled the Administration forces on the tax bill as a member of the Ways and Means Committee and failed to follow them in several votes on the floor. Rep. Charles A. Halleck, sole Republican, followed his party leadership in opposition to the Administration, and so did Rep. Samuel B. Pettengill after anonuncing he was not seeking re-election as a Democrat, Both Hoosier Senators voted for the new farm, tax and relief bills. Coauthor of the Antilynching Bill, Senator VanNuys voted for cloture to halt the filibuster of the Southern Senators, but finally voted to shelve the measure.
Minton Votes Cloture
Senator Minton, however, voted | for cloture and against shelving. The senior Senator was paired for a 10 per cent cut in Federal expenditures, which the junior Senator voted against. Absent in Indiana, Senator VanNuys was announced as against the Government Reorganization Bill, which Senator Minton supported. Senator van Nuys voted “ves” on civil service for postmasters and Senator Minton “no.” The latter also voted against barring governmental job holders from political conventions and Senator VanNuys
was paired for it.

Walsh-Healey Bill Rebuff | Throws Question Into Elections.
(Editorial, Page 14)
Times Speeial WASHINGTON, June 16.—C. I. O. forces are planning to make the House Rules Committee an important issue in the fall elections.
Lieut. Gov. Thomas Kennedy of Pennsylvania, who is also secretary=treasurer of the United Mine Workers, announced the plans hyve teday following the committee's webuff of John L. Lewis, Mr. Kennedy and other C. I. O. leaders in their effort to obtain a House vote on the Walsh-Healey Bill. The Rules Committee refused to grant a right-of-way for this measure, which would tighten the present law governing labor standards among Government contractors. Speaker William B. Bankhead also refused to co-operate with the C. I. O. leaders. Rep. Arthur H. Greenwood (D. Ind.) is ranking member of the Rules Committee. On announced votes his stamtl generally has been liberal. Kennedy Is Spokesman Mr. Kennedy said: “Out of this will come the big issue of the next campaign— whether the House Rules Committee is to be continued as a superlegislative agency. Labor's NonPartisan League will question candidates for Congress, Republicans as well as Democrats, on their willingness to change the existing committee setup of the House.” The Rules Committee has been frequently attacked by advocates of
Six Colleagues Dodge Question on Indiana Campaign.
By DANIEL M. KIDNEY Times Staff Writer
WASHINGTON, June 16—Only five of the 11 Democratic Senators listed by Senator VanNuys as com=-
| ing to Indiana to aid his independ-
ent campaign would declare their willingness to do so today. The other six either voiced intention not to aid in the campaign or refused to comment. “I have never authorized the use of my name in any such connection,” said Senator Connally (Tex.). The five who said they may come to Indiana were Senators Wheeler (Mont.), Copeland (N. Y.), Burke (Neb.), Gerry (R. I) and Tydings (Md.). Senators Clark (Mo. and O'Mahoney (Wyo. refused to comment. Comment of the Senators follows: Senator Gillette (Iowa)—"I have just come through a primary campaign in my state where I fought against outside interference. So I do not intend to go to Indiana and tell the people there how to vote. However I have the highest regard for Senator VanNuys.” Right, Says Wheeler
Senator Bailey (N. C.)~"I do not subscribe to the theory that Senators or other public officials from other states should go into any state and tell the voters there what to do. I am a stanch friend of Senator VanNuys and glad to testify at any itme to his sterling qualities. Senator Wheeler—‘“Senator VanNuys’ statement ie right so far as I am concerned.” Senator Copeland—"If Senator vanNuys asks me to go to help him campaign 1 will be glad to do it.” Senator Gerry—“I will be glad to go if Senator VanNuys wants me and I think he can get the whole bunch.” Senator Burke—‘“Senator VanNuys is perfectly right about me. I will go to Indiana any time he savs and stay as long as needed.” Senator Tydings—"Glad to do it.
Senator Byrd (Va)—"I have had | cpio it a felony to use Federal

Jennings Assures Candis date WPA Politics Will Be Probed.
Informed that three of the 11 Senators he named as campaign speakers for him here denied in Washington they would come, and three were noncommittal, Senator vanNuys (D. Inf.) today said: “Bvery one of them has assured
me over and over that they would do anything in the world to help me. They'll be here when the time comes, I think.” Meanwhile, John K. Jennings, WPA Indiana Administrator, assured Senator VanNuys that ehe will ine vestigate any reports that the WPA is being used against his ine dependent campaign to succeed hime self. Mr, VanNuys, who is opposed by State House leaders and will run for re-election on an independent ticket, had said he had complaints that WPA funds were being used against him. He promised to fore ward about 10 complaints to Mr, Jennings.
Prompt Probe Promised
“I promised the Senator there would be a prompt investigation and a report made to him,” Mr. Jennings said. “So far there has not been a single substantiated case where anyone in the Indiana WPA during the primary has vioe lated my order of last March, fore bidding political activities by ade ministrative or supervisory eme ployes. I do not intend to have any violations during the fall came paign.” Mr. Jennings said that he would not attend the Democratic State convention next month as evidence of his good faith in keeping out of politics. It will be the first cone vention he has missed in 20 years, he said. He was elected as a dele egate from Vanderburgh County but will be represented by proxy. “As far as the operations of the WPA in Indiana are converned I have always and intend to continue to operate it just the same as if the Senate amendment to the latest appropriation bill had been adopted funds for political he declared.
