4 NEW VOTES
FOR PATMAN
MEASURE
CLAIMED
Agreement Reached in Senate
Not to Consider Veto
a Until Monday !;

Senator Elmer Thomas DO,
oklahoma, announced that he
will withdraw his motion to re-
consider the Patman bonus bill
in time FOR the measure to be
sent to the White House by
tonight. He has an understand
ing with Senate leaders that
o. veto will not be considered
in the Senate until Monday.
Bonus advocates today reported
they had virtual assurances that
four Senators who originally voted
against the Patman bill will swing
over and vote to override a Veto
They said that would give them
enough votes to beat the veto.
Leaders Of the immediate cash
payment fight in the Senate de-
clared this situation gave them
even brighter prospects than they
had expected, and redoubled their
confidence of eventual victory,
despite the contemplated veto.
The champions of the Patman
measure in the Senate declined to
make public the names OF those
who they say will swing over, but
it was authoritatiyely stated that
three of the four are Republicans
and the fourth a Democrat.
Conference Held
Meanwhile, Senator Elmer
Thomas CD of Oklahoma, head
of the bonus forces in the Senate,
met late yesterday with some OF
his supporters to discuss the ques-
ton of when he would withdraw
his motion to reconsider the meas.
ure-the only reason why the bill
has been kept at the Capitol.
No decision was reached on that
score yesterday, but another con-
ference was planned for late to-
day, and it is expected that some
thing more definite will be deter.
mined.
Senators in the conference yes
terday expressed the belief that it
will be next week that Senator
Thomas withdraws his motion
and permits the bill to go to the
President, who is expected to toss
the veto right back at Congress.
It is pointed out that there are
today several of the Senate advo'
Gates of the Patman bill still out
of the city, and it is probable the
full strength of the Thomas fol
lowers will not be available in the
Senate until next week.
A move by Senator Gore CD
of Oklahoma, to attach a bonus
payment rider to President Roose-
velt's pending social security leg
islation was defeated by the Sen
ate Finance Committee today, II
to S.
Gamers Stand
The report that Vice President
Garner has privately advocated
passage of the bill has encouraged
the probonus camp considerably
This report also is pointed to by
those who believe the President is
really DESTROYS Of having his veto
overridden as an argument in sup
port Of their theory.
According to reliable reports,
the Vice President has told the
President that to permit the bill

MORE VOCATION
 WORK N AY BE.
 TAUGHT HERE
Sup ndent Phillips Voices Possibility Fol-
 lowing Convention

Possibility that Juneau High School will add, perhaps next year, certain vocational courses to it's curriculum was voiced today by A. B. Phillips, Superintendent of Juneau Schools, in commenting on his trip to the Northwest Educa- ton Association meeting at Spor kane. Wash, from which he re- turned last week.
 Following the Spokane scssion, Phillips said he conferred in Seat tie with A. c. Guido, Northwest Director for the Smith Hughes Act. This act, passed by Congress several years ago, gives Federal financial assistance to high schools wi S h ing to establish vocational instruction.
 Nothing definite has resulted yet from this conference, Phillips ex- plained, but if an attempt now Icing made to have this act ap- plicable to Alaska is successful, Ju- neau High School may benefit from it. A. E. Karnes, Territorial Di- rector of Education, is now in Chi cago attending the National Smith, Hughes Act, Convention. From there he will go to Washington, DC, te petition Federal authorities to ap- ply the act to the Territory. E
 Phillips pointed out that the act has been made applicable to the Territory of Hawaii.
 Among the vocational subjects which Juneau might install if Karnes' efforts are successful, are: navigation, gas and marine en- gineering, radio, blacksmith forge work, tinsmithing and foundry in- struction, agriculture and dairying.
 The vocational subjects now of- fered here include: manual train ing, mechanical training, short hand, bookkeeping. typing, home economic and commercial art.

The entire cast is well adapt ed to the various roles. including as it does Andy Devine, John War burton, Irene Ware, Russ Brown and many others.
