n-Control Bills Il Be Tougher in House

‘Master Bill' by Reps. Landis and Gwinn

_ Has ‘Everything in It but Kitchen Sink’

By FRED W. PERKINS

| WASHINGTON,

Seripps-Howard Staff Writer March 21.—First sign from the house and senate

labor committees of actual work on writing union-control bills are that

N.Y.), The measure is reported to have “everything in it but the kitchen sink.”

Disagreement is

shop and indus-try-wide -bargaining, and these © two features may

"Mr. Perkins not be in the bill when it reaches the floor. But both restrictions,

according to members favoring them, will be urged in the committee and in the house.

Balance of Power

The senate committee's work will pe slowed and its product will be moderated by the fact that there is less unanimity of opinion than in the house committee. “ In contrast to strong sentiment in the house committee in favor of a restrictive labor bill, a group of three Republican “moderates” on the subject wield a balance of power in the senate committee.

They are Senators Wayne Morse (Ore.), George D. Aiken (Vt) and Irving M. Ives (N. Y)). Combining with Democratic members they can water down the sweeping proposals of Senator Joseph Ball (R. Minn.). However, as has happened before, the senate version can be strengthened on the floor, and some authorities predict that. a Will Consult Truman

* Another reason for delay is that Chairman Robert A. Taft (R. Ohio) and others still plan to consult with President Truman before they report a bill. They hope to get the President's ideas on what form of legislation he would not veto. Senator Ball has expressed doubt that any agreement can be reached with the White House, and other members say they are sure of

will be tougher and quicker. A. Hartley Jr. (R. N, J.) says the house committee es and should have a bill ready by April 1. will have for guidance and probable dissection a

enough votes in both the senate and house to pass any “reasonable” bill over a veto. The current calm on the labor front, and the apparent fact that John L. Lewis is blocked from another coal strike in the next few weeks or months, are operating to prevent unhurried action, particularly in the senate,

WASHINGTON, March 21 (U. P)). ~The agriculture department re-| ported today that farmers are plan-| ining the largest acreage of crops this year since the war-time peak] in 1944, phasis from wheat, corn and potatoes to soybeans, sugar beets and | other crops, the department says. -| Under present normal spring weather conditions, the department | said: “It appears quite possible that intentions can be realized.” Indicated acreages of spring wheat plantings, the department announced, point to a slightly smaller crop than last year’s record harvest. On the basis of reports from farmers in all parts of the country, the| department said indicated plant-| ings for spring wheat would be 19, “| 280,000 acres, compared with plant- | ings last year of 19,304,000 acres.

Low Reduction

Corn planting indications point to a 87.509,000-acre crop compared

{with last year’s record planting of |

90,027,000 acres, a reduction of less than 3 per cent. But the department said that, with the farmers optimistic’ about | the season's prospects in most areas, this year’s total acreage of principal crops will be slightly larger than in| the last two years. With a near-record acreage of winter wheat crop sown last fall the department said indications are than there will be a shift in em-| phasis to planting of such oil crops| as flaxseed and soybeans. On the basis of indications, he | 1947 flaxseed plantings will total 488.000 acres compared with last [1 year's plantings of 2,639,000 acres.

Over § Per Cent

Soybean ‘acreage will go up more! than 6 per cent according to the pre-planting estimate from a 1946 acreage of 11,404,000 to 12,213,000 acres in 1947.

The department said ently indi- | cations show that spring wheat will drop as acreage for barley and du-| rum wheat increases. The record-breaking potato crop|, of last year will not be repeated again this year as farmers have indicated they will turn in many areas to sugar beets, beans and peas. Indicated potato acreage in 1947 will be 2310,000 acres compared with a last year's 2625000 acres.

Improved Farm Labor

Part of the farmer's optimism for 1947, it was pointed out, can be laid to the improvement in the farm labor and machinery situation. Furthermore, they were able to get much work done in. fields last fall so that they are in good position to start spring work as quickly as the season develops. The department said that with spring weather conditions about normal the soil is in good shape in most parts of the country except the southwest. The aggregate acreage of crops now planned would exceed the acreage of last year by 2,300,000 acres and that of 1945 by nearly 1 million
