LEADERS FUMBLE ON WOOL AND BEEF

Jackson Day Junkets of Administration Backers Permit Western Bloc to Put Over New Embargo in Senate; Barkley, Byrnes Seek to Recoup Today.

By THOMAS L. STOKES

Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, April 1.—A series of miscues by Administration leaders in Congress has created a veritable tragedy of errors over the Argentine canned-beef and wool

issue which threatens to undermine the cordial relationship | with Latin America which the State Department is trying | to promote as an essential part of hemisphere defense. | In the latest act, Administration leaders in the Senate] were caught napping late yesterday and the Western beef-| and-wool bloc put over an embargo on foreign food and | clothing in the Fifth Supplemental National - Defense Bill, ratifying at least tem-|: porarily ‘the previous action] by the House. The Administration has sufficient & votes in the Senate to check the]: embargo campaign which twice has: originated in the House. But, when the vital vote came, it turned out that a dozen or so administration Senators had not yet returned from

Jackson Day junkets and the embargo won. 33 to 29. Knew Vote Was Due Somebody slipped up there—for : Senate Democratic leaders knew the | & vote was coming.
