The eastern two-thirds of the country was blistered by a record-breaking heat wave today as a blanket of ovenhot air stretched from New York to Omaha. A cold front moved slowly into the Great Lakes region

but most of the rest of the nation had no chance of relief.

Truman Stalls Steel Action

By United Press WASHINGTON, June 26 —

President Truman was reported ready to play “tit for tat” with Congress today by rejecting, for the moment at, least, its request to use the Taft-Hartley Act to end the 25-day-old steel strike. The House joined the Senate yesterday in asking that the labor law be invoked to clear the way for an 80-day court injunction against the walkout by 650,000 CIO Steelworkers. Congress had previously rebuffed the Presi-

powers to seize the steel mills. A high government official said Mr. Truman would not invoke the Taft-Hartley law until next week, if then,

ALWAYS HAPPENING, somewhere, somehow~that reverse twist, that ordinary situation doing a somersault. And no wonder. No two human beings are alike. The fixes they can get into, the mistakes and misdemeanors, the snafus and rhubarbs, the téugh breaks and happy endings, are practically infinite. What man has bitten what dog today? That's what everybody picks up his newspaper —every single day—to find out. Nobody is ever disappointed. There's always at least one “Well, whaddaya know ...!” and usually a lot of them. For you, the stopper of the day may be strange bedfellows in politics... for your wife, it may be a new inside-out pocketbook. But neither one of you can do without your daily charge of amazement and amusement — your newspaper.

Residents in Denver, Fresno and Portland, Ore, will view telecasts piped into theaters or hotels because they have no TV stations on the air. Altogether, live telecasts will be available to 107 of the 108 stations in 65 cities throughout the country.

Man Drowned As Canoe Upsets

INTERNATIONAL FALLS,

Minn.,, June 26 . (UP)—Thomas

Kidwell, 20,7 Oak Park, Ill, drowned in Lake Kebetogama near here yesterday when his canoe overturned in 30 feet of water. A companion, Edward M. Mose, 22, also of Oak Park, saved himself by hanging onto the canoe until it floated to shore 15 min utes later. Sheriff Adolph Johnson of St. Louis County said Mr. Kidwell hung onto the boat, but sank about 100 feet from shore when he became hysterical. The youths were returning to shore from an island in the lake at the time of the accident. They had been vacationing at the lake for the past 10 days. Mr. Kidwell was the son of Less Kidwell, a mining company executive.”
