House 283 to 130
(Continued from Page One)
party ticket.
Taylor’s threat brought a quick
promise from Senator Taft (R
Ohio) to bring Congress back this
summer to hammer out some
sort of a draft law.
Before voting to pass the bill,
the House beat down a motion by
Rep. Philbin (D-Mass> to send
the measure back to its armed
services committee. This move,
which would have killed the bill,
was defeated 283 to 125 on a roll
call vote.
The measure goes to the Sen
ate for concurrence in House am
endments. If the Senate refuses
to agree, then the bill will go to
a conference committee to com
promise differences.
Senator Wherry (R-Neb), acting
majority leader expressed con
fidence the Senate can “break
any one-man filibuster on the
draft” and go through with plans
to adjourn Saturday night.

Approval of Funds
Fairbanks Airport
WASHINGTON, — f/P) —Maj.
Gen. Frank Everst of the Air
Force asked a Senate appropria
tions subcommittee yesterday to
approve $5,000,000 for an airport
at Fairbanks, Alaska.
Everst, former commander of
the Air Corps’s Yukon Sector,
told the committee considering
the second deficiency appropria
tions bill, the airport at Fairbanks
was needed.
Similar pleas were made by
Delegate Bartlett of Alaska and
James Davis, director of the Ter
ritories division of the Interior
Department.
The House Appropriations Com
mittee allowed $8,000,000 cash and
$5,000,000 contract authorization
for the Civil eronautics Adminis
tration to construct an airport at
Anchorage. It eliminated the Fair
banks funds saying it did not
believe that airport is justified
now.
WASHINGTON. — <JP) —Dele
gate Bartlettt of Alaska said yes
terday efforts will be made in
the Senate to restore to the sec
ond deficiency bill $5,000,000 for
an airport at Fairbanks Alaska.
The House appropriations com
mittee, in approving $8,000,000
cash and $9,000,000 contract auth
orization for an airport at Anch
orage, eliminated funds for Fair
banks.
It said, however, if need is
shown for the Fairbanks airport
the situation will be considered.
Bartlett said he had assurance
from senators they would try to
amend the bill*
FAIRBANKS, — (JP) —The
Fairbanks Chamber of Commerce
asked yesterday for “reexamina
tion of date” by the House Appro
priations Committee which Tues
day cut from a pending bill, a
$5,000,000 for a municipal air
port here.
The chamber telegraphed Ter
ritorial Delegate E. L. Bartlett,
members of the committee and
other congressmen to urge res
toration of funds.
The Fairbanks airport had been
authorized earlier in a separate
measure passed by both houses
and signed by the president.

some former members of Local
7 who have since organized the
Seafoods Workers’ Union, had
