majors.
Seven major companies and the
Conservation Committee of Cali

S. attorney general in charge of
the department of justice’s anti
trust division.

Company, Shell Oil of New York,
Tidewater Associated, Richfield

Congress Balks
At “Fair Deal”
WASHINGTON, VP) — Senate
rejection of a Presidential plan to
reorganize the National Labor Re
lations Board was cited by Repub
licans Saturday as proof that
Congress won’t go for the Tru
man “Fair Deal.” By a 53 to 30
margin — with 18 Democrats,
chiefly from the south, voting
with 35 Republicans—the Senate
nullified the NLRB revision that
Mr. Truman wanted.
About an hour later it junked
by a 65 to 13 count another Tru
man proposal involving the comp
troller of the currency.
Senator Wherry of Nebraska,
the Republican flood leader, said
the labor board showdown “prov
ed that Scott Lucas has only about
one-third of the Senate with him
when the President wants to put
over his ‘Fair Deal’ program.”
Majority leader Lucas (D.-Ill.)
led the opposiiton in the futile ef
fort to save the reorganization
plan.
these untruthful charges against
• us with all our strength.”

Airman Blow n Into
Air At 28,000 Feet
FORT WORTH, Tex. UP) — An
air force lieutenant was sucked
from a B-36 bomber—28,000 feet
in the air—late Friday.
Maj. Edwin D. Easley, plane
commander, reported that no crew
member saw a parachute open af
ter the explosion.
Airmen call it an explosive de
compression—the violent blast of
air from within a 'pressurized
high-flying plane out into the thin
air of a high altitude.
The flier was identified as 1st
Lt. Freeman B. Horner, the bom
bardier, formerly of Miles City,
Mont. His wife and three children
are at the Horner home here.
The accident apparently was
caused by faliure of the pressure
system on the giant bomber.
The bombardier’s window was
ripped open by the blast which
happened over Salome, Ariz., the
plane was on a training mission
to Fairfield-Suisun Air Base,
Calif.
The plane returned here Friday
night after circling the area of
the accident in search of the miss
ing flier.
A ground crew and air search
was conducted Saturday.

held to answer in the Commis

Daring Gunmen
Get $15,000 Holdup
THOMPSONVILLE Conn. UP)—
Four gunmen, their faces hidden
behind gas masks, Saturday slug
ged and three Brink’s guards of
$15,000 in the pay room of the
Bigelow-Sanford Carpet factory.
The four men, all believed arm
ed with shotguns, apparently es
caped in an automobile after they
tied the guards.
The guards were so badly beat
en on the head and face they had
to be taken to the Mercy Hospital
in nearby Springfield, Mass., for
treatment.
The holdup men were at first
believed to be trapped in the plant
but a minute search of all corners
of the building failed to reveal
an ytrace of them.
The money represented the
payroll of 300 third shift employ
ees of the carpet concern.
The daring robbery took place
about 4 a.m., about an hour be
fore the third shift was due to
leave the plane.
The guards were bound in the
small office of tHe plant’s wool
house after each was clubbed
twice on the head, apparently
with gun butts, police said.
O. A. Lundburg, pioneer min
ing man of Candle who spends his
winters in the States, returned
yesterday on P.A.A. and is enjoy
ing meeting his old-time friends.
