WASHINGTON, June 15-— President Truman's plea for team-
work support of strohg economigy controls by all Americans for at|
least two more years had little apparent effect today on Congress’ determination. to write its own curbs.

Nor did it appear that his speech changed any congressional minds on his request for a two-year extension of wageprice controls and more restrictions on rents and credit. Although the Senate Banking Committee plugged away at the final form of a rent control extension as part of the Defense Production quit until Monday.

a new rise on the stock market at a moderately active opening today.
Senate committee abandoned its
hopes of finishing action on the!
bill before next week. Mr. Truman accused beef and business “lobbyists” of selfishly
"trying to scuttle wage-price con-
trols at the risk of wrecking the mobilization program. He said their efforts if successful, could hand Russia “the easiest victory the Kremlin could ask for.”

Mr. Truman will not get all he
wants in changes to the Defense Production Act. The Senate committee yesterday approved putting rent controls under the general mobilization program and extending them. But the rent measure faced a strong test today on an amendment by Sen. John W. Bricker (R. 0), that would permit rent increases: to parallel cost-of-liv-ing rises. It would authorize aikes up to 61 per cent in some rases. In other controls developments In Congress: ONE—Although the Senate rommittee rejected proposals yes-| terday to continue the present] law “as is” for 30 days or for nine months, there were some in-! dieations the House and Sengte might end up with a nine-month extension of the present law with| inclusion of rent control.

Blames Vandalism Such conditions—lack of adequate recreation—were blamed as one of .the leading causes of juvenile delinquency in a recent survey of 20,000 Indianapolis school children conducted by The Indianapolis Times and city schools. Pupils’ said that when recreation facilities are lacking, juveniles: turn to stealing, hoodlumism and other forms of “steam-freeing” delinquency. A. J. Thatcher, city recreation director, blamed repeated vandalism for closing the playground. He sald rashes of vandalism caused over $2000 damage last year, and this year's assault added about another $400. “I'd be tickled to death to open the playground if we could just keep it in shape,” he said. “If police find the hoodlums, or if someone can identify them, we'll open the playground as soon as we have some reasonable assurance that the vandalism won't be repeated.” The children also would be “tickled to death.” With their playground closed, they are playing ball in the streets, wading through puddles along the gutter, and climbing trees in neighbors’ front yards. And they're saying, “Whatta vacation.”
Hoosiers Taper Off On Their Chicken Eat'n
Chicken chomping is no longer anything to crow about. Sale of broilers and fryers, which reached an all-time peak last week, dropped about 20 per cent this week in Indiana, Purdue University statisticians reported today. The drop was from 597,145 to 492,896. The beating taken by drumsticks came as a surprise. Poultry experts had predicted that,

{sales would reach another record the men threatened him with the peak of about 700,000 this week.’
