SENATE FIGHT IRKS BATISTA
Cuban >resident May Rule By Uscree to Get His ®rogram Started.
HAVANA, Cuba, Aug. 5 (U. P.).—|
President Igencio Batista may suspend Congress and govern by decree as a result of a riot in the Senate vesterday, observers believed todav. The Batista administration was said to have grown impatient with the dilatory tactics of Congress and to have considered stern action even before the fight which broke out in the Senate floor during a dispute over the order in which bills should he debated at the extraordinary session called by Batista Saturday. Twenty Senators, including Premier Carlos Saladrigas, were swinging their fists. The incident may cause Batista to take drastic steps to get his program in operation, it was believed. He is especially anxious to get machinary in motion for handling an expected $25,000,000 credit from the American Import-Export Bank,

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
Ciano Pressing For Long Pants
ROME, Aug. 5 (U. P.).—The short pants campaign has been called off by Foreign Minister Count Galeazzo Ciano’s newspaper Telegrafo, of Leghorn. “Men, enough of this,” it said, referring to the movement begun a year ago to conserve cloth. “Grown men with hairy legs barely covered with short panties resemble ridiculous, absent-minded professors,” the newspaper said. The editors were offended, especially, by the sight of men in short pants at historic monuments, prisons, public slaughter houses and other “austere surroundings.” “Get back into long pants or women will be justified in wearing trousers which you renounce and the authority that goes with them,” the newspaper said.

GAS RATIONING HINTED IN EAST
If Co-operation Fails, Ickes Aids Say.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 5 (U. PD. —Defense Oil Co-ordinator Harold L. Ickes will decide soon whether compulsion must be used to effect a one-third reduction in gasoline consumption on the East Coast, officials said today. They represented Mr. Ickes as anxious to avoid mandatory restrictions but said that he would have to ration available supplies if motorists fail to co-operate. First he desires a few weeks’ trial of the nightly “blackout” of filling stations from 7 p. m. to 7 a. m. While officials did not con-
