Vice-President Gar7ler Not Figure No,u But Real Help
 to Present Administration
By BYRON PRICE (Chief Of Bureau, The Associated Press, Washington

Press, Washington
 It was not by accident that it fell to Vice President Garner, above all others, to fire the first shot of the Democratic Congress- ional Campaign.
 His rise in prominence and in- fluence in the Roosevelt Admin istration has represented one of the most remarkable turns in mod ern politics.
 A year ago he was so much on the outside that politicians specu- lated whether an open estrange- ment between him and the Presi- dent could be avoided.
 Today hardly anyone--and the statement is made advisedly = is more on the inside than Garner.
 No Vice President in many years has been more truly a vital part of the administration with which he served.

Slaves Of Running Wild by Congress Just Prior

By HERBERT PLUMMER

WASHINGTON, July 10.- The manner in which Robinson of Ark ansas, Senate Democratic leader, staved off what appeared to be either defeat or at least a telling blow to Administration hopes on the last day of the Seventy Third Congress will be reviewed by Wash- ington observers many times dur ing the coming months.
 It cannot be denied that admin istration leaders were a crestfallen bunch on the preceding Saturday midnight when they witnessed their carefully laid plans for ad- journment smashed to bits by re- calcitrant senators.
 For days they had schemed to bring the hectic session to close. Up until o'clock it looked as if adjournment was "in the bag.' All major bills on the Presidents pro- gram had been passed. Only the formality of approving few rout- inc reports remained
 Then almost immediately the sit- uation changed.

 TO MAKE REPLY
Dea dine Set for More Trouble Tn Portland

Eleventh hour efforts to bring about an armistice to forestall a general walkout of more than l00,- 900 union men in Portland, Oak land and San Francisco are being made on several fronts this af- ternoon in the maritime strike, ac- cording to Associated Press ad- vices received by The Empire.
 The principal move is going on behind scenes at the hearing in San Francisco of the Federal Labor Disputes Board which expected in- formation late today from the shipowners that have an important bearing on the much sought truce Details are withheld. The work CTS are still holding out for con- trol of the hiring halls.
 Deadiinc Set
 Thursday noon is set for the general walkout in Portland unless definite developments come in the meantime.
 President William Green, of the American Federation of Labor, has notified Union leaders at Portland they are without authority to call a general strike.
 The Oakland Central Labor Council has called for a general strike vote at the earliest possible moment.
 Twenty unions of San Francisco have either signified willingness to walk out or left the matter in the hands of the Strategy Committee
 DEATH IN SEATTLE
 Another death and increasing general strike threats in three coast cities drew the Longshore- mems strike rapidly toward a new crisis today as the Presidents Fed eral Board in San Francisco plead ed for an armistice.
 Gunfire added the seventh vic- tim to the death toll since the walkout and started when Steve WdUoOli, dSCO 1o yCulo, opCCldi deputy sheriff, fell fatally wounded in the Seattle business district during a battle.
 Are Attacked
 Watson and several other depu- ties, who had been on dock duty, were allegedly attacked by the strikers. The auto in which Wat son and others were riding turned over. Ivan Gill, Union seaman, has been arrested for questioning The police said they had been informed strikers had been riding in Gill's automobile and this bunch precipitated the battle.
 General Strike Threats
 Trade Unions in Portland and Oakland took definite action to- ward demoralizing general strikes while a similar threat is hanging over the San Francisco area. These threats sp,rred the Federal Media ton board to determined attempts to bring about truce.

DANGER OF RUNNING WILD

Robinson made no attempt to disguise his anxiety in his "lec- ture" on the department of Sen ators delivered around midnight. Nor did the statement of McNary, the Republican leader, made after all plans had miscarried, that Monday morning would see new session of the Senate help his dis position.
 everyone realized what failure to adjourn at the appointed time could bring about.
 This is reelection year. As so often happens in such years members of Congress find it diff ficult to resist the temptation of passing all sorts of bills to satisfy

SAFENAY SALES
SET MARK

Safeway Stores, Inc, sales of
SIG, 0OO,46 for the four weeks
ended June 16 marked a new
high record since reporting on
the present basis began at the
opening of 1882. The gain was
1913 per cent over the like period
of 1888, which was the highest
rate of advance with one excep-
ton, that of the February "a re-
port, since the turn came in July
last year. The February gain was
1879 per cent.
In only one four-week period
since May, 1882, have gross sales
topped the $18,0OO,000 mark up
to the present report. This was
in the four weeks ended october
7, last.
AS result of the latest four
weeks showing, Safeway sales for
the first "a weeks this year have
a N ounted to $106,417,354, as
against $96,560,744 in the like
period of 1898, a gain of 1912 per
cent.
Progressive Sales Comparison
In the first "a weeks Of 1882,
Safeway did a gross business of
Sos, 627 ,485, or about per cent
larger than in the like 1884 period
but in no % days of the 1882
comparison period did sales reach
the level of the last four weeks
under report.
safeway is operating about 200
fewer stores than at the begin
ming of 1882. Reduction began
actively with May, 1882, and went
ahead at rapid pace as dupli-
eating establishments were con-
solidated. Handling of this stu
alton has been continued down
to date as leases have expired or
been found possible of adjustment
in less desirable or overcrowded
locations.
Thus far this year to June 16,
Safeway reported net elimination
of 81 store units, the only in
crease in any four-week period
having occurred in the last re-
port, when the net increase was
one store.

Help
MARKET RISE
High Low 1900
By WALL STREET SPECTATOR

BY WALL STREET SPECTATOR
NEW YORK, June q GN.S).
The market is up to its old tricks.
A week ago, when everyone ex-
pected it to go up, it took a spill
for a few days. Yesterday when
the cards were apparently stacked
against it in the bearish steel
news, it turned around and
marched right up.
Some good dividends came
along later to help out, but the
reassuring thing to Wall Street
is that the market held so we'll in
the early dealings and no liquida'
ton came in.
Steel forecasters look for one
more steep drop in operations
and then gradual sterilization.
The decline is likely to carry
the rate under 40 per cent, but
at that won't be as big as the
one this week. Action of the
steel shares suggests that this has
been pretty we'll discounted.
Pretty soon they will be looking
toward second quarter earnings
reports, due at the end of next
month, and the outlook for fall.
Estimates are that General
Motors will show around $3.50 a
share for the first half. This
would make nearly 80 cents for
the second quarter.
The Atchison dividend dispelled
some of the sourness on the rail
road situation.
The big question is whether the
President will sign the railroad
pension bill. Today is the last
day. If traffic holds. carrier
earnings in the last half will be
better, since the roads for the last
two months have been spending
heavily on maintenance.
Roads that are expected either
to resume or to pay more money
include Central of New Jersey,
Reading, Louisville & Nashville.
Union Pacific, and Atlantic Coast
Line.
The hope is that the market
will behave better and thus give
the President a good send-oft on
Saturday.
