BILL IS SLOWED]

Fight Over FEPC May Hold Up Passage.

Times Washington Bureau WASHINGTON, June 21. — A fight over réstoration of funds for the fair employment practices committee ‘may delay passage of the

$771,538,765 war agencies bill in the

senad® until Monday.

Such delay would give senators an opportunity to study the hearIngs of the senate appropriations committee. Although the bill and committee report were presented by the acting chairman, Senator Kenneth McKellar (D. Tenn.) yesterday, the details of the hearings were not available. They were expected to be ready today: Usually the senate receives the bill, hearings and committee report, then approves the appropriations without delay. If there is some delay, most senators stay away until the final vote comes up. Recently amendments adding $39,006,304 to -the~interior-depart= ment appropriations were approved with only five senators on the floor, and only three of the five voting. Two voted aye and one nay. May Increase Funds If the senate adopts the appropriations committee report on the war agencies bill it will add another $18,773 915 to the bill as passed by the house. The senate committee to date has upped appropriations as reported by the house committee a total of $354,352,481. The war agencies bill, as ‘reported, contains $39,670,215 for the office of war information. This is a boost of $21,670,215 over the $18,000,000 voted for OWI by the house, » In the Interim, OWI Director Elmer Davis’ top-ranking staffers have been lobbying on Capitol Hill. OWI co-ordinates the radio, movies and advertising for the various war activities. How much this costs does not appear in their budget. John Herrick, executive director of the domestic branch, estimated it will take about half of the $1,482,855 contained in the bill for domestic branch operations. Dispute Over Pictures The senate committee recom mended striking from the bill this section: “Not to.exceed $250,000 for entertainment in the United Statés and abroad of officials and others in the

Rep. Marion T. Bennett (R. Mo.) fnserted in the Congressional Record a clipping from an Independence, Mo, newspaper which reported OWI had twice sent photographers there to take pictures of President Truman's home. The story stated that one was from the overseas

domestic branch of OWT. OWI reports that no domestic branch photographer was sent. Dave Eisendrath, photographer - reporter for the OWI overseas branch, spent two weeks in Independence doing the first job and the second was done for the overseas branch by Acme Newspictures.

By JOHN M¢DERMOTT United Press Staff Correspondent ESSEN, Germany, June 21.-—Al-fred Krupp, German munitions (king, was held by British military authorities in a secret hideaway today for possible trial as a war criminal. Military police appeared without warning at the Krupp mansion near here Tuesday with a warrant for the 37-year-old industrialist’s arrest. “Everything is being handled on a very high level,” a high-ranking British officer said. “I think it would be a good guess that he might staid trial.” Krupp, head of Germany's most powerful munitions and armament trust, was the first of Nazi industrialists known to have been. arrested as a possible war criminal, Krupp and other German industrialists had backed the Nazi party from its infancy. Representatives of the Krupp firm already have applied to allied military government officials for permission to resume - production of peace-time goods in their vast factories. Some well--informed British sources indicated that Krupp might be tried on legal technicalities involving’ - questionable international financial deals.
