House Sends WPA Bill to Senate Over New Deal Objections.
(Continued from Page One)
tain of the tax relief proposals are little more than a gesture.”
Relief Bill Sent To Senate, 373 to 21
WASHINGTON, June 17 (U. P). —The House passed and sent to the Senate early today, after a turbulent, 14-hour session, a $1,735,600,-
000 relief bill for the next fiscal year. It carries the full amount re-| quested by President Roosevelt for, the WPA, but includes restrictions | that he opposed, giving Congress| greater control over relief. The final vote, 373 to 21, came at 12:47 a. m. Only nine Democrats] and 12 Republicans voted against it after provisions specifically op-| posed by the President and relief| administrators had been approved.) All 12 Indiana Congressman voted for the bill. Early Senate action was promised | by Chairman Adams (D. Colo.) of} the Senate Appropriations Committee, who announced that hearings will begin Tuesday. But New, Deal Senators will fight to eliminate some of the House provisions.
PWA Fund is Kept
As approved by the House the, appropriation is $36,890,000 less than budget estimates and $804,205,000 below ine amount voted for relief
during the cu Yent fiscal year. Major provisions of the would: 1. Appropri~*‘s $1,477,000000 for the WPA of which $125,000,000 is earmarked for Public Works Administration projects. This was the amount requested by the President, but he objects to the earmarking of funds for PWA. 2. Appropriate $100.000,000 for the National Youth Administration. The budget estimated $123.000,000; | the House Appropriations Committee cut it to $83.000.000, and the final figure was offered by House Majority Leader Sam Rayburn (D.| Tex.) as a “harmony” proposal. ‘Security’ Wages Provided 3. Create a three-man bipariisan board to administer WPA, eliminating the present one-man administrator. 4. Impose stiff penalties for political activities by relief workers and administrative personnel. 5. Ban theater projects. 6. Substitute the theory of a security wage for the prevailing wage to WPA workers. 7. Prohibit employment under any relief agency after April 1, 1940 of any person eligible to receive Social Security Act benefits. 8. Require a periodic review, not Jess than once every six months, of the rolls of relief employees. 9. Remove persons from WPA rolls after they have received beitefits for 13 consecutive months. Heads of families who are 45 years of age or older and war veterans are exempt from this provision. 10. Prevent reallocation of WPA funds to other agencies. 11. Denies work relief to aliens and those who advocate overthrow of the Government. The alien ban is part of the present relief act and when it was applied approximately 30.000 aliens were stricken from the rolls. The provision relating to citizens advocating overthrow of the Government is new.
Wosdrum Is Victorious
The House picked the hottest day of the year—the temperature reached 96—for the longest session since this Congress met in January. But the heat did not worry the legislators who debated in their air-conditioned chamber. T/eaders called the House to order at 11 a. m. vesterday in an effort to avoid a Saturday session. But Saturday’s dawn came less than three hours after the House recessed until Monday. Led by.-Rep. Clifton A. Woodrum (D. Va), Republicans and Democrats throughout the day beat down attempts of Administration forces to increase the relief appropriation and to defeat restrictions. Only on funds for NYA was the Administration successful in obtaining a compromise. By a voice vote an amendment bv Rep. Kent Keller (D. 111) to increase the WPA tund by $1087000.000 was howled down. Just before final passage, Democrats and Republicans joined in paying tribute to Rep. Woodrum, who headed the Appropriations Subcommittee which drafted the bill.

1940 MIRRORED | Garner to Go Home if INHATCH BILL Neutrality Delays Senate
Both Garner and Roosevelt Realize Importance of Officeholders.
By CHARLES T. LUCEY Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, June 17.—The fight on the Hatch bill barring political activity by Federal employees loomed today as a forerunner of the contest for the Presidential nomination in the 1940 Democratic National Convention. Keen political observers on Capitol Hill believe it is no mere acci- | dent that sees President Roosevelt opposing the bill as it was written by Senator Hatch (D. N. M.), and Vice President Garner favoring it. Two weeks ago Mr. Garner, who rarely allows himself to be quoted! on any subject, told newspapermen that the Hatch bill would be law before Congress adiourns.
Criticizes Hatch Draft
Yesterday Mr. Roosevelt said that while he agrees with the obvious objectives of the measure, he believes it was badly drawn and that it should not preclude ail Government officials and emplovees from being active politically. | Friends of the bill point out that the President is fully alive to the
| fact that thousands of Federal offi- |
cials throughout the country—district attormeys, internal revenue collectors, postmasters, U. S. marshals and others—constitute a powerful force in shaping local sentiment as the conventions approach. Thousands of these are beholden to the Roosevelt Administration, it] is argued, and verv largely would be for Mr. Roosevelt. if he seeks| a third term, or for somone else named by him if he chooses not to seek the nomination. |
Garner Knows It, Too
Many of these got their jobs because they had delivered politically, in their wards and precincts. and| they still stimulate and help control political thinking. To take them out of political activity, as the H-teh bill would do, observers contend, could handicap the Administration greatly. Mr. Garner knows all this as well as Mr. Roosevelt. Some of his friends sav he is not concerned with possible use of this Federal machine against himself. but with the
| fact that it would be for Roosevelt—
or a Roosevelt man-—and against the rest of the field in the Dembocratic Party. The Vice President watched the progress of the bill ‘closely in the Senate, where it was passed without What he does about the fight on the bill in the House—where he served for many vears—may have an important bearing on whether the Hatch bill is passed as it came from the Senate or in greatly weakened form.
AUTO TRADES GROUP WILL FROLIC FRIDAY
An outing for all local auto dealers and finance men will be held at the Hillcrest Country Club Friday under auspices of the Mndianapolis Automobile Trades Association. The program. ovening at 9:39 a. m, is ‘to include golf, tennis, swimming and refreshments. A number of valuable contest prizes have been arranged, according to Herman Schaefer, association manager.

STATE FIGHTS NEW | STEPHENSON PLEA
NOBLESVILLE, Ind, June 17 (U. P) —D. C. Stephenson's latest effort to gain release from the State prison was resisted today in a reply filed by James K. Northam, deputy Attorney General, in Hamilton Circuit Court. The former Ku-Klux Klan leader, serving a life term for the murder of Madge Oberholtzer, had sought his freedom on a writ of coram nobis, contending that he was pre vented from testifying at his trial because of threats against his life. Mr. Northam’s reply maintained that the coram nobis question was adjudicated in a previous appeal and could not be brought up again. | He set forth that a coram nobis petition accompanied Stephenson's appeal to the Indiana Supreme Court and that it was rejected. Judge Cassius M. Gentry must determine whether Stephenson’s attorney. former mayor Alben Smith of Ia Porte, has presented sufficient evidence to warrant a hegring on the coram nobis petition. If he rules in Stephenson's favor, the former Kian leader will be brought here for the hearing.

Tientsin Blockade Threatens To Spread to Biggest Foreign Zone.

British troops permit the reopening of the station,” Mayor Fu Sio-en said. Japanese soldiers killed an une identified Russian, for reasons une known, outside the British concese gion at Tientsin this afternoon. Wits nesses said that the Japanese also threatened a British soldier who was standing nearby.
Trouble had seemed imminent to= day at Tientsin, where the Japanese blockaded the British and French concessions, when Japanese asserted that three British warships had been ordered to break the blockade and take food to the more than 100,000 Chinese and foreigners in the concessions. According to the Japanese, the destroyer Decoy, the escort ship Lowestoft and the big depot ship Medway were proceeding to Tient sin, the first two from Chinwangtao and the third from Weihaiwei. British Navy authorities at Hongs kong denied the report, and said that no ships had been ordered to Tientsin—"so far.” Japanese increased the rigor of their search of ships moving up the river from the sea to take food to the foreign concessions. They asserted that they had ree duced the import of vegetables, fish and rice to the concessions by more than 90 per cent. Japanese sources said that at overturned by the impact.
