WASHINGTON, April 26 (U. P.). —Government agencies lent a helping hand today to speed congressional investigations of whether Frank Costello and other big time gamblers have been profiting from government contracts. The justice, treasury and navy

departments and the maritime commission were surveying their files for information on the Aero-Dy-| namics Research Corp. and its subsidiaries. | Aerodynamics was chartered here in 1941 as a non-profit organization working in behalf of scientists

Interior

/ Chairman Styles Bridges of the senate appropriations * ‘committee predicted that the senate would restore part of the cut voted by the house in the interior department appropriations bill. The house bill, passed last night, authorized $161,413,513 for interior during the fiscal year beginning July 1. This was $133,999,900 less than the $295413.413 President Truman had requested. Western reclamation proj-y ects bore the brunt of the cut.

Labor

Chairman Robert A. Taft of the senate labor committee expressed opposition®to a proposal for outlawing industrywide strikes under the anti-trust laws. The plan would make

would permit industrywide bargaining if there were no industrywide strikes. Taft said he did not want to go that far.

Veto Senator Carl A. Hatch (D. N. M.) said senate Republicans could not override Presiderit Truman's first veto of the new session if they tried, because they lacked the two-thirds vote necessary to do so. Senate Re- | publican Whip Kenneth S. Wherry, Nebraska, agreed that this probably

“This grand jury will retire July 1. It is therefore apparent we will not be able to complete the work that should be done; it will have to be continued by the succeeding grand jury. “We respectfully direct the attention of the court to the fact that investigaing facilities of the grand jury are limited. If a thorough investigation is to be made of this matter, hundreds of persons whose names appear as voters in the 1946 primary election will have to be interviewed. “We have received complete cooperation from the prosecutor's office, but with only three investigators now available to work out side the grand jury room it is apparent our inquiry must proceed slowly.

critical session of the United Nations general assembly. The general assembly convenes at 11 a. m. Monday to tackle the explosive Palestine problem, an issue closely linked with President Truman’s $400 million program for combatting Soviet expansion in the eastern Mediterranean, Possibly because of Mr. Marshall's in Moscow and preoccupation with European affairs the American position on Palestine still is cloaked in secrecy: U. 8 Delegate Warren R. Austin has not indicated what stand the United States will take in the composition of the proposed United Nation Palestine inquiry commission. Russ Stand Unknown Arab states are trying to broaden the United Nations session to get a flat decision now on whether the British should get out of Palestine and give up their mandate. This the United States as well as Britain will oppose. The Russian attitude has not been revealed. A move was afoot in the United Nations to give places on the Palestine commission to the Big Five, five neutrals, and Arab and Jewish representatives. The Big Three have not indicated their attitude toward this, In Palestine itself violence still was simmering. The chief of the British army's criminal investigation at Haifa was shot to death by two assailants riding in a taxicab. Reflections of the Big Four conference appeared both in Moscow and Beflin. In Moscow the new May day slogans were announced, including admonitions to the Soviet army to “stand guard over the peace you have conquered” and to workers everywhere to fight for a

stable peace and beware of imperialist plans for war.

Today it's happening. But it's spotty so far. Newburyport plan (10 per cent cut) is being resisted by big merchandisers in some areas. Note that no big cities have adopted it. But as inventories pile up and supply pipelines fill, prices are bound to soften in numerous lines. Textiles still haven't nudged downward much at wholesale levels. There's talk about shoe prices slipping but little action. Steel and aute people disavow reductions because of 15 per cent wage hikes of recent days. Scrapiren prices have tumbled from last month's high. On foods there are signs of downward price swing, though cuts haven't reached consumer levels. Canned-goods stocks are half again as large as last year, with big packs in sight for coming season, indicating cheaper prices. Fats and oils are down, and this should mean easing of prices on soap, shortening, salad oils and margarine. Tallew (for seap) down from 27 te 20 cents a pound, and coconut oil (also for soap), is down frem 25‘te 20 cents in recent weeks. Drops in cottonseed, soybean and other oils range from § te 10 cents. Hogs and cattle were $30 a hundredweight two months ago. Now good hogs are $23.50, cattle $26. Wheat is off from its March peak and corn has slipped 20 cents a bushel. Again we say: Inventories furnish key. When shelves are stocked to worrisome highs, then we'll get real, not token, cuts.

Democrats Happy

REPUBLICANS had hoped this would be first spring of Democrats’ discontent. But Democrats in congress are happy; and, with notable exceptions, lazy.

They're coattail riding again. This time it's Mr. Truman's coattails, Some enthusiastic Democrats say G. O. P. victory in "46 will be shortest political trend in history. They point to Gallup poll showin Truman stock up; te Chicago and Wisconsin elections and reports from West that Democrat may get seat of late Fred Norman eof WwW; But shrewd partisans say trend won't continue unless Democrats learn, once more, how to be minority party. Senate Minority Leader Barkley found time for overseas jaunt. House Leader Rayburn pursues his easy-going way. They're relying on G. O. P, mistakes but rewards are diminishing from that direction.
