Labor Bill oes Open ast Stand

Vote Due Today On Measure

WASHINGTQN, «June 8 (U, P). ~—Senate foes of the Taft-Hartley labor bill swung into the last round

_ Of their hopeless fight today. They

issued & warning that the legislation would split the country into warring camps. Republican leaders hoped the measure be put to a vote

before nightfall. The opponents|

Republicans were confident their Bil would pass by better than the two-thirds majority needed to kill a veto. So optimistic were they over the outcome that they agreed to schedule the vote late today when absenteeism tends to be higher than usual,

Refuses to Budge On Information Stand

Chairman John Taber warmed that his house appropriations committee again would turn down the state department's request for funds for its foreign information and cultural program unless some changes were made. Before the department gets any money, he said, it must “clean house of Communists and inefficient personnel.” A bill now before the house would give the information program specific congressional sanction.

Asks Hearing On Film Star's Charge

Columnist Lowell Mellett asked the house un-American activities committee for an immediate public hearing on a charge that he “pressured” Actor Robert Taylor into making a pro-Russian film. * The charge was made last month while a subcommittee wag in Hollywood investigating alleged Communist efforts to dominate the film colony.

* Mr. Quill charged the board of transportation was permitting use of uninspected cars. He predicted workers would refuse to operate unsafe subway equipment. The threatened shutdown of New York's 740-mile subway network which carries 8 million passengers daily was a new climax in worker resistance against the labor policies of the board of transportation. Mr, Quill said the board used uninspected trains to counteract a “legal slowdown” which 29,000 subway operating employees were carrying out against the world's fastest transit system. Prohibited from striking by a state law, the workers have slowed

The slowdown followed inaugura- | tion by Board Chairman Charles P. Gross of a split-shift schedule for the summer. Mr. Quill charged that Mr. Gross had added 140 extra trains on the three subway division to “cover up” the slowdown and that the required inspection of each car every 48 hours no longer was possible, Union observers said trains were running from eight minutes to two hours late by the time they finished runs.
