House Leaders Hint Recess; Roosevelt May Send

Message to Congress. WASHINGTON, July 24 (U. P.) o

Jongressional leaders today promised | :

impatient members a final answer by Monday as to whether the administration’s new anti-inflation program requires legislation. House leaders were hinting that the odds favor an informal recess, starting next Tuesday. Senate Democratic Leader Alben W. Barkley indicated that the president would send a message to congress. The pending decision is whether new drastic controls over prices and wages require regislation or can be invoked by executive action under the broad war powers possessed by President Roosevelt. Sources familiar with minute-by-minute changes in the legislative situation said Mr. Roosevelt and his attorney general, Francis Biddle, have not yet decided whether the present threat of inflation can be met by executive action.

Many Anxious for Recess

Many members of congress are anxious for a recess to enable them to campaign for the fall elections. Nearly half of both the senate and house already have left the city and leaders are trying to hold a slim guorum here until Monday. House Democratic Leader John W.

“You are going to find that drastic action will be taken against anyone in any labor organization who tries to bring about a stoppage of work over jurisdictional disputes, even to the application of the laws of treason, if necessary.” William H. Davis, chairman of the war labor board, supported this statement by his fellow public member of the agency, and today both Mr. Davis and Mr. Morse said that the policy they thus espoused applies to the “wildcat” or unauthorized strikes that recently have shown steady increases. The statement, said Chairman

as|Davis, “applied particularly to wild-

cat strikes because the international labor organizations have loyally supported the no-strike agreement.” Mr. Davis said there had been

He cited instances in which union heads had threatened to disband local unions, agreed to the discharge of strikers, and otherwise acted to make good on the no-strike pledge. Meanwhile, the most recent compilation shows that since Jan. 1 and to the end of June, notwithstanding the post-Pearl Harbor pledge of national labor leaders that strikes could not be allowed to interfere with war production, 906,043 man-days were lost as a result of strikes in war industries. The number of unauthorized strikes grew in. each month from January through June, and the number of workers involved and the
