In Labor BillBy The Associated Press ;G*-®«P o t Senators De- A noth^ hurdle in the auto- termined to Block

mobile industry’s wage negotiations was b^eved to have been cleared today as the basic steel industry generally Appeared willing to follow the principal terms o f the U. S. Steel-CIO Steelwor-kers pact. Although more than 2,300membera of one of Maryland’s five otriklng telephwte unions were due back on their Jobs Monday, no signs of a break appeared efae- where In negoUaUons toward national Mttfement of the 20-day-old Strike.

Negotiators for the ClO-Unlted Automobile workers and Chrysler werc understood to have setUed on a new contract along the line of terms In the agreement with General Motora Oorp., which provided an increase of llh i cents sn hour plus 31k cents for six paid holidays a year. The present UAW-Chrys- ler contract covering 75,000 production woricers expires at midnight tonlghL

Settle On New Basic TermsBethlehem Steel Gorp., Youngs

town Sheet and Tube Co., and Welrton Steel Co., .also had setUed on new basic terms of about 121k cents more sn hour for their 9^- 000 employes.

Inland Steel company at Chicago offered its 14,350 employes s similar boost but under certain conditions "designed to assure union responsibility.”

Withvtwo fabricating concerns, the Sheffield Steel Corp., at Kansas City, and the Copperweld Steel Corp., Glassport. Pa., also agreeing to meet the higher scales, nearly a quarter of a mUlion of the union's olalniM memberahtp o f 880,- 000 or-more had been covered by new contracts for the year.

The Copperweld agreement was reached under unusual conditions as the plant's employes were out on a strike, in protest against the suspension of the local’s seven officers for absenteeismv The CIO- Steel workers branded, the fivq- day-old stike “wildcat” and ordered pie workers to return. They voted to stay out until their officers are returned to their Jobs.

Attempts to Make Measure Any TougherWashington, April 26—(d>)— A

group of determined senators rallied around the pending labor bill today ' to fight every amendment niiich would make It tougher on uniohs.

Senator Ellcnder (D-La), who wants ths measure passed as it stands, said ^'We’ve got s chance to best them.'*.

Senator Taft Ut-Ohio), who supports four amendments, countered with "I rather think we've got the .votes."

Taft rejected the argument of the other group that a preXKlen- tlal veto of the general labor bill may hinge on the outcome of the Senate debate. He eald the amendments are not.**vitsr enough to change the president'f mind one way or the other.

.\gainst COBsultlng TnunaaAs for a suggestion by some

senators that President Truman be consulted on the legislation, Taft said:

"I don't see that It would do much good.”

He added he has no Idea what the president may do, "but 1 am convinced that if he Is going to veto a atronger bill, he would veto the present Senate bill too.”

The two Mnstors were interviewed before 'Taft Went Jnto a a meeting of the nlne-man'senate Republican Policy committee, of which he ia chairman, to discuss plana for getting the amendments through the Senate next weMi.

The debate will be resumed Monday and will probably last all week and longer.

Taft, Joined by Senator Ball ( R- Mlnn), and othera of both parties, wants to:

Prohibit unions from Interfering with worker’s rights to self-organisation; tone down the practice of industry-wide bargaining; enable private employers to get injunctions to block Jurisdictional (inter-union) strikes; and prohibit union-controlled welfare funds.,

Prortaloas Not In Bill NowThe bill as it stands does not

contain those provisions. It does contain a ban on closed shop contracts; elimination of bargaining rights of foremen; creation of an

'independent mediation service; Injunctions to stop strikes endangering the national health add welfare; a ban on Jurisdictional strikes and other practices.

Speakers against the Taft-Ball smendmehts are expected to include Morse (R-Vt)

Here ia the general st^nd of those senators:

(1) They want-some'labor bill to become law; (2) they believe the present bfil, apfiroved by the Senate Labor committee, is reasonable; (3) They think that'if it is

Reclamiatioii Funds ‘ Cut Being Fought

W e t t e r n RepubHcans Will Try to Get Senators to Provide FuU Amount Asked

By J m o h MsrWir , Waahlnctaiw April IS—tfP)—

KaelUBaUon? Therc'i • fl|1it In O onrrcu over It. What dor* It bb*m iT Hot)'* the atorjr.

Mudi of Um western United .StetM waa known aa the great Anartoan daaert. Raintall w m aearce and atill la. In much of It

Because of the unwatered land waa DO good for crops, the early •sttlere tried to reclaim It from the desert.

They'Uld it by homely ^vlceS. each aa ditches th a t carried water to their dry land from stream s and d» on.

The limit for this kind of reclamation waa reached about IfOO. Miiiirma of acre* atm could be reclaimed but—

rrom 1900 it became clear further reclamation would have to be done 0(1 a big scale In a way that would carry water many mile# to many farms.

Bedamailon Law l*aa*rd So Oongreas In 1901 pasaed a

reclamation law to help mak'e weatsm lands fertile. The act atlll stands. It cover* 17 weatem *tstes-

Since 1902 the government ha* ly tn t about $1,000,000̂ on reclamation work.

The value of the.cropa raised on the land reclaimed through gov- amment help aince 1902 ha* been about $6,000,000,000.

The goveniment now has M im - gation, or reclamation, projecta in operation and another 2# ■ under eonstructlon. ̂ . .

About 6.000.000 acre* of land are supplied with erater from tb* govemmoot ayalema now. Anottar 8,000.600 will ba supplied when the new projecta are flntahed.

That won't b# th# Um^. Mora acres can be supplied with waUr tn the yeare ahead as yven more projects are added.

Denead Upon Irrtgallou Except for the graaa-growing

ranges where the cattle feed, moat of the 17 weateri. atatek depend span irrigation for crops.

As time paaaed. the gdvemment advanced from simple Irrigation projects to huge plant* whk'h could halp supply not only water tor inlgaUon but electric power to surrounding areas.

Example:In 19S6 the government ftnlshed

Boulder dam In the lower Oalora* do river a t a cost of $13̂ ,000,000.

I t helps irrigate 400,000 acres of laud and It suppUas alactrle power to lower California, lower Nevada, and eastern Arlsona.

U m reclametlon programe arc carried but by the Interior department.

Like every other government agency, each year It muat go up to Congreas for money to keep running another year.

All euch requests go Oral to the HoaM Approprlatlona committee.

raqueats are then handed to a number of aubcomrallteca.

committee decided It needed only $02,717,600, a cut of $$$,284.600.

Then the eubcommittea sent out lU whseked-down 6gure to the full Ho^use to vote on. The House put back only $6,176,000 of the reclamation money.

There waa only one man from the west—Repreeehtative Stock- man, Oregon Republlcan-^-on the subcommittee.

(•rhe Republlcaha, In control of the committee* end of Gongroea, ara cutting down govarnment ax- pensea becatme they promlaed to).

But the W atern Republicans In CbngresM t6ok a look a t this big cut In the fund* for reclamation wor...

They’re mad. Reclamation helpa their people In the west. So, now they are going to try to get tha Senata to vote for what Interior asked.

Thia announcement waa made In moat of the churchea last Sunday and it appeared on the different church calendars and ahould result In less confuslor than waa the case In former, years.

In the peat all |>ubllc clocks were not allowed to display daylight saving time, but the S tate Legislature during the past week, changed the law, and now all clocka can now display daylight aaving time.

A brat the only public clock In town affected Ir. the jiaat waa the one In the tower of Cheney Broth- eraSaplnning mill.

Through Three WarsThe District, organized In 1897,

is now old enough to have lived through three wara; the Spanislv American war tn 1898.. World War T in 1918. and World War II in 1941.

Early in the war the officers of the Fire District realized the dan8 grr to Manchester residents and property because of air raids, and set out to protect against any such hazards. This waa done by the formation of auxiliary Are Aghters and an organization of 136 men waa set up. The classes wene so arranged that night workem could be drilled during the day and the day workers at night. The district piitvhased additional equipment for their use consisting of extra hose, a 1,250-watt lighting plant and generator, crash helmets. stirrup pumps, an extra pump tank extinguisher and ordered a new 760 OPM American X.aFrance pump, equipped xvlth a 100 gallon booster tank which wtui delivered Ih 1942.

Practice bombs were demonstrated and practical experience waa given to the men In handling the bombs. A survey was made of all men of the department and a schedule was set up so as to m - Bure the .tresence of all available men at given times. The auxilisry Ore Aghters were trained to statp in and special attention was givwn them in the proper handling of equipment at Ares.

A group of about 20 men to a class were drilled and took their course of training with the regular Are trucks, ladders and other equipment owned by the District and this was further augmented by equipment loaned by the Government. Courses were given tn Aret aid, war gasses, handling of n s masks and actual training and handling of tear and several other tjrpea of chemical gasses. Among the equipment loaned by the Government and distributed by member* of the department to ‘the *Mf- ferent Are houses and the homes of regular and auxiliary members, were three skid pumps, four trail-1 era, together with all the Are Aghting equipment, 3,200 feet of two and one-half inch hose, and 1,600 feet of one and one-half inch hoee, steel helmets, coats, gas masks, ladders, palls, adapters and Attinga to make up a complete fire Aghting truck. All of the akld pumps were of 500-gallon capaedty and were mounted on three, one and one-half ton tniclu furnished by the town. Bodies of the trucks were made of lumber salvaged from the hurricane stocks sawed in 1938 and plywood. Pujnps and equipment were mounted and spray-painted a bright red.
