the Senate late yesterday by direc-
ton of President Roosevelt, would
empower the Chief Executive to
prohibit the sale of arms and mu-
nitions in the United States to
either Paraguay or Bolivia or rep.
resentatives of those two republics.
The resolution states that if the
President finds the prohibition of
the sale of arms and munitions
of war in the United States to
Paraguay and Bolivia may con-
tribute to the reestabliShment of
peace between those countries,
and if after consultation with the
governments of other American
republics and with their coopera-
ton, as well as that of such other
governments as he may deem
necessary, he makes proclamation
to that effect" it shall then be
unlawful to sell them.
However, State Department Of
ficials said the question of CO.
operation from the other Ameri-
can republics and other govern
ments Is discretionary and that
as worded, the resolution act
ually will give the President
power to act independently.

INCREASES
FAIL, STRIKES
LOOMHERE
Contractors to Refuse Any
Kind of Compromise; Fed
eraI Building to Suffer

Washington contractors will not
meet the demands of labor for
shorter hours and increased pay.
That action was definitely de-
cided upon at a meeting Of the
Master Builders Association held
last night and attended by all the
contractors who are working on
the Federal Building program pro-
jects in the Capital.
A United Front
The contractors, who employ
more than a dozen building crafts,
decided that they will present a
united front against the growing
strike situation.
No compromise will be made,
the contractors asserted, but they
will hold out indefinitely against
the labor demands.
This would result in a complete
tie-up of all work on the Govern
ment buildings scheduled to open
on July i, and would probably
mean that the Federal housing
program, scheduled to start soon,
will be cancelled here.
Demands Are Refused
Work on the Labor, Justice and
I. c. c. buildings was at a virtual
standstill today, with carpenters
and plasterers out on strike.
The carpenters walked out May
/, the contractors having refused
their demands for a wage increase
to $1.3712 an hour and a 30-hour
week.
Plasterers went out yesterday.
They are demanding a wage in
crease Of Is cents an hour, giving
a scale of SITS and a reduction
from 40 to 80 hours a week in
order to spread Jobs to the unem-
ployed members of the union.
No Strike Expected
Threat of a strike in the brick
layers union loomed today in
view of the stand taken by the
contractors last night. The brick
layers wage agreement has ex.
pired, and it is understood they.
too, will demand a SITS rate and
a 30-hour week. The present
scale is $3.50 for a 40-hour week.
Union officials expressed the be-
lief that no strike would result,
but that an agreement could be
reached amicably.
The Department of Labor,
which has failed so far in efforts
to bring about a solution of the
vexing labor problem here, will
try again next week to bring the
union heads and employers to.
gether to get the men back to
work.
Ice Cream Situation
Engineers and firemen in two
Of the largest ice cream plants in
the District were still out on
strike, their demands for a $3.50
weekly increase having been re-
fused.
There will be no sympathy
strike of drivers and inside
workers in the ice cream plants,
union officials said. A meeting
to discuss the projected strike had
been called for last night but was
cancelled when it was learned
that a clause in the striking fire
mems union charter states that
they will not join in any SYM
pathetic strike.
The other workers held that in
view of this they would not enter
into any strike controversy.
The ice cream plants today Is
sued an ultimatum to the striking
employees. Unless they return to
the job within three days they
will be barred and the strike
breakers taken on temporarily will
be given the permanent posts, it
was warned.
There are seven engineers and
firemen on strike at the Southern
Diaries plant and 16 at the Garry
Ice Cream Company.
