‘Won't Help Much’ On Mr. Truman's desk were bills covering only four of the

Mr. Truman was reported ready to sign into law both the price @unu wousing DIS On i0e ground that “they won’t help much, but they n't do any harm.” In own anti-inflation program, Mr. Truman had asked for authority to reimpose wage-price controls, allocate scarce industrial goods, tighten up on rent

exchanges, reimpose the wartime excess profits tax, and ration es-

On housing, the President had appealed for approval of the Taft-Ellender-Wagner bill, including its provisions for public housing and slum clearance. Intead,. Congress approved a easure liberalizing federal loan guarantees in an effort to encourage private builders to put up more low-cost housing. Wherry Satisfied There was talk from Republcans and Democrats alike of another special session. But as of now it is just talk. Mr. Taft told a reporter he doubts that Congress will meet before Dec. 31, although members gave Republican leaders authority to call Congress back before that date. The Presiden der his constitutional powers. can recall Cons gress at any . . But White House insiders report that he probably will not do so. They say he prefers, instead, to put the issues. up to voters between now and Nov. 2.

Acting Republican leader Kenneth 8. Wherry of Nebraska, said Congress has done “everything dfecessary in the emergency field.” Democratic Whip Scott W. Lucas of Illinois, charged that the GOP leadership had failed to “eliminate politics” in acting on prices and housing. He said Mr. Truman’s political stock “definitely is on the upgrade,” and that the special session had boosted

it. Discount Threat

Democrats refused to take serously the suggestion of Sen. Homer Ferguson of Michigan that Congress consider impeachment proceedings against the President. Sen. Carl Hatch (D. N. M.), a close friend of Mr. Truman, described Mr. Ferguson's suggestion as “preposterous, absurd.” Sen. Clyde Hoey (D. N. C.) who has criticized Mr. Truman on the civil rights issue, rallied to his defense and accused Ferguson of making a “political tirade.” The Michigan Republican spoke of impeachment on the Senate floor Saturday night in denouncing Mr. Truman for his refusal to let Congress see the loyalty files of government -agencies. The President's action, Mr. Ferguson said, has hampered his committee’s investigation.

Fugitive Hunted In Lagrange Area

Companion Held After | Stolen Car Crash

Times State Service LAGRANGE, Aug. 9—A state

police manhunt for an Ohio escaped convict went into its second day today and. police spokesmén said the fugitive

might still be “holed up” in this area. Still. at large was Timothy Sams, 24. Held in jail here was Sams’ companion, 21-year-old Jack Charles Kidder, who landed stunned in a cornfield after their stolen car plunged off a dead end road in a wild police chase Saturday night. Both escaped from Mansfield, O., State Reformatory Aug. 4, according to the story Kidder told Sheriff Glenn ' Eash and state troopers. Kidder said the. pair had stolen a car in Toledo sand driven to Lagrange. i Sheriffs Begin Chase They were spotted by a Lagrange garage man siphoning gasoline from a truck late Saturday and deputy sheriffs sought to arrest them. After a zig-zag chase over country roads, the fugitives’ car overshot the deadend road at 90 miles an hour at the Elkhart County line.

In the belief that he was seriously hurt, Kidder gave himself up after several hours in the cornfield.

Kidder was taken to Goshen for treatment of minor injuriek and then was brought back to jail here. Sams apparently escaped the smashup unhurt and disappeared although police threw a mile-square cordon around the field. Called ‘Dangerous’ Police said it was possible Sams, whom they described as “dangerous,” might still be groping around on foot through upstate tall corn or that he might have reached a road and caught a ride out of the vicinity. Both escapees had been doing time on robbery convictions.
