In [addition to increasing the size of .the Labor Board in an effort to change some of its policies, the! amendments approved today include the American Federation of Labor proposal to require the Board to certify individual crafts as bargaining units if the workers in the craft desire. The present law permits the Board to lump crafts in a larger industrial unit. g Another Labor Committee amendment permits employers to petition for collective! bargaining elections -when “caught [in the middle” by conflicting demands of rival unions, neither of which will seek a Labor Board determination of their membership.

VOTE ON HATCH BILL EXPECTED

House Judiciary. Committee 0. K. Is Looked for Tomorrow. By CHARLES T. LUCEY

{ | Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, April 3.—Safely past a 'néw attack which would have killed it, the Hatch Bill appeared today to -be headed for a

final vote in the House - Judiciary | {Committee tomorrow.

| Enemies of the measure, which] |passed the Senate two weeks ago, offered a motion yesterday to table —in efféct to bury it—but this was beaten easily in an executive session of [the Judiciary Committee. Rep. Francis E. Walter (D. Pa), chairman of =the sub-committee which | reported the legislation ivorably last week, said he would move at tomorrow's committee meeting thaty the measure be reported favorably. Extends Ban on Activities" Both Mr. Walter and Rep. Johrr J, Dempsey (D. N. M.), leader of

the fight for House passage, were confident they had the votes to get

-| favorable committee action.

The Bill applies to state and local jobholders, if Federally paid, the same ban on_ political activities placed on Federal workers by the! original 1939 law sponsored by Senator Hatch (D. N. M.). As amended in the Senate, it places a $5000 limit on individual political campaign contributions in any one year, and a:.new-amendment attached by the House subcommittee would prevent a political . campaign. committee from spending more than three million dollars in one year. ; : The Judiciary Committee has de- | Yoted two full sessions to consideration of the new bill, but Chairman Hatton Sumners (D. Tex.) said to- | day. there was no attempt ‘to fili- | buster the measure in the Commit- | tee. He said members had many | honest and legitimate questions to ask about the bill, and that the problems it creates are being given thorough study.

The call he received was from his mother who wanted to know how he was getting along. “She was kind of nervous,” Scout | Stahl said, “and I told her everything was all right.” Scout Lee Allen Miller, 15, of Troop 71, was Mayor. He was escorted to the Mayor's chair by a secretary and spent the first part of his admihistration looking at a picture book which was handy. Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan.

Vance, examiner for the State Board of Accounts, who also declared that he could not find the ledger card. Miss Dalton testified that the ledger cards from which the orders to grocerymen and other merchants were written by her staff, were made out by John Neenan, former chief order writer in the Trustee's office,

‘after the case was first referred to

the office. Mr. Neenan was one of five persons indicted in the Center Town-

ship poor relief investigation by the Marion County Grand Jury and has pleaded guilty to one of four indictments against him. Miss Ruth Hanna, 1735 N. Pennsylvania St., an investigator at the Trustee’s office, testified that she had never investigated a case of Melvin Woodson at 62012 E. Market St. which was in her assigned territory. She further declared that there was no such address as 620%: E. Market. : William S. O'Donnell, who operates'a boarding house at 620 E. Market St. took the stand and said there was no such address at 6201 E. Market and that he never knew of anyone named Woodson who lived at his house. - In his opening statement before the jury, Paul Rochford, attorney for Anderson, declared that he would introduce evidence to show that the defendant never had any ‘“knowledge of dummy orders” and that he gave the relief clients “more than their value received.”

The committee disallowed the new plane order, except for 57 replacements. It cut the cash appropriation by $20,884,010, and the contractual authority by $35,780,500. The replacement planes include 14 amphibians, six transports and 37 advanced training planes.

0. K.’s New Land

The committee increased a budget estimate of $866,000 for acquisition of additional land at Army posts by adding $500,000 for F't. Bliss, Tex. and $1,000,000 for Ft. Knox, Ky. The time has come, Gen. Marshall told a subcommittee handling the War Department's Supply Bill, to “face the facts... of the existing crisis abroad.” “Any major developments there should be paralleled by added precautions in this country,” he declared. “If the situation grows more desperate, we should add to the seasoned number of troops in the regular Army and National Guard. “These should be but temporary measures, but they should be taken definitely, step by step, to prepare ourselves against the possibility of chaotic world conditions.” Gen. Marshall said that the Army's “immediate objective” is complete equipment of the 227,000 regulars and the 235,000 Natiorial Guardsmen. The Army was boosted 17,000 men and the National Guard increased 45,000 as part of the limited national emergency declared by President Roosevelt last September.

Bares ‘Great Objective’

The 1941 budget is $39,000,000 short of providing critical items for this initial protective force, he said. The. Army’s “great objective”’— even more important than more soldiers—Gen. Marshall said, is the ultimate procurement of $240,000,000° worth of ammunition, rifles, artillery, tanks and other equipment for the “protective mobilization plan” force of about 1,200,000 men which could be put i the field within four months after outbreak of war.

“Only a dollar?” she demanded.

“That’s an insult.” By then Miss Sheridan and her suitor were in the theater hospital room. Photographers still were snapping pictures and Miss Sheridan started to weep: “Please, oh, please, get me loose. I want to see this picture.” The non-plussed theater manager produced a hack saw, but only managed to nick the creamy arm |of Hollywood’s most widely publicized actress. Mr, Matthews said he had sent out for a locksmith. : By the time the man arrived with the keys, the picture, “It All Came True,” was half over. And Miss Sheridan sat on a bed with her eyes averted from Richard. Unlocked at last, she refused to prefer charges against him and on further thought and assurance that he never had attended Harvard— forgave him. She even invited him to supper after the show. “I guess when you think it over no girl ever got a: compliment like that,” she said. . “Why he even swallowed a key to meet me. .

The Polish General Staff was unable to establish communications with any part of the ‘army. So did Germany strike.” | Herr Goering was speaking to German youth gemerally and particularly those ii*the air service, including anti-aircraft defense. Alluding to the possibility that the German armed forces might find themselves fighting on enemy soil, he said: “Our anti-aircraft defense is only in the interior for the present. The main duty of the air force is at the front. . In Poland antiaircraft showed itself to be sometimes the last backbone of resistance.” The rotund Field Marshal, Com mander in Chief of the Air Force, Aviation Minister and Economic Dictator as well as Adolf Hitler's official] heir, exhorted youth to fight bravely and intelligently, and he romised that, as they had seen the German armed forces rebuilt under naziism, they would see Germany grow into a great and powerful nation, Herr Goering recalled the period at the end of the Wold War ‘when Germany lay in deepest im- | potence, ” when “men who were brave in the first years of the wwr deserted in the last.” The youth of that time was not real “German youth,” he said, ‘‘because it became evil and diseased.” “You boys must one day form a link in a chain which would have been broken had not the Fuehrer appeared after the war,” he said. The} Official News Agency said today that German bombing planes had ‘successfully attacked” merchant: ships in a British naval convoy in the northern waters of the North: Sea. Previously, it had been announced that three Allied planes and two German craft were shot down in battles yesterday over the Western Front.

Air Battle Reported Off British Coast

LONDON, April 3 (U. P.).—Two air battles off the British Coast were reported today ‘in which two German planes were said to have been shot down and one British fighter was believed lost. Scene of one battle was off the Yorkshire Coast where German planes attacked a British convoy, British fighter craft engaged the Germans. . One British Spitfire plane and one German Heinkel were reported downed in the combat. The second air combat took place at an unspecified location off the Northeast British Coast. One German plane was reported shot down in this fight. |
