SENATE KILLS
 WALKER LABOR \ BILL 4 TO 4
Campbell, Frawley, Pow. \ CTS and Hess Unite
 s Against Measure

Although amended in several re- spects, Nthe Walker labor bill went down to defeat in the Territorial Senate this morning when 1t failed to win majority, the Senators di- viding four and four Campbell, Frawley, Powers and Hess voted against the measure while Bru- snelle, Devine, Roden and Walker supported it.
 President Hess brought in several amendments which were adopted but with Senators Frawley and Flowers making a determined stand against the entire bill and Senator Campbell objecting particularly to section three which would have re- ,auired an employer to give on de- mand written statement why he |iischarged an employee the pro- |posal was doomed
 | Powers Denounces Bill Adding his voice to that of F,raw- ley, who denounced the measure Saturday, Senator Powers declared before the Senate that he consid- cred the measure as an attempt at vicious class legislation.
 T was a union man for years, although I am not now affiliated" he said. My leanings are entirely ir that direction. I served on vari- ous union grievance committees with railroad organizations and all ways will be a friend of union la Dor, but this is not a union labor bill This is an attempt at vicious class legislation"
 s Claim Based on Code
 Proponents of the bill contended it was tended to nothing more than be in line with present section "A of the NRA code guaranteeing the right of collective bargaining but opponents charged 1t went much further and was entirely unneces- sary if it only carried out the code.

U. s. CHA M ER PRAISES SOLONS IN SLOW WORK.
Business Leaders Feel Con gress o. K. in Careful
 Scrutiny of Bills

WASHINGTON, March 11.-Des- pite hints from the Capital today that the White House had cut re- bellious Democrats, signs are plen- tiful on Capitol Hill that Congress will continue to give all Admins tration proposals critical and oft en prolonged scrutiny
 Praise for the comparatively slow procedure by the House and Sen ate this term was voiced by busi- ness today, as represented by the United States Chamber of Con- merce.
 Many observers held that this is the first session since President Roosevelt took office, that Con- gress had begun to take it's custom ary hand in shaping legislation They ventured, too, the opinion that any pressure that the Chief Executive had brought on behalf of specific measures had found him acquiescing later to a new or der.
 Already there has been discus sion among some Democratic lead CTS about the advisability of side tracking Administration legislation that is not on the must" list. Sc far, their efforts to accelerate con- sideration of Administration pro- posals have been futile, except or non n-controversial bills.
 Word from those who have talked to the President is that he shows no particular concern although neither of his prime proposals work relief and social security has advanced.
 However, so far he has not sus- tained defeat and may get what he wants in the end.
 The Unite d States Chamber praised the action of Congress on the grounds that the legislators were taking plenty of time to de- hberate on important measures.

 DAMAGES GIVEN
 IN TRUST CASE
Hartford U. s. Court Awards that Sum in Pro-
 test Over Aluminium

HARTFORD, Conn, March H. The Bausch Machine and Tool Co mpany of Springfield, Mass, was awarded damages of $2,868,900 against the Aluminium Company of America in the United States District Court here Saturday night.
 The jury returned verdict of $965,300 but since the suit was based upon the Sherman Anti Trust Act, the judge trebled the amount as a matter of course. This action is mandatory under the pro- visions of the act.
 Attorneys for the defense gave notice of an appeal.
 The Springfield company con- tended in the suit that the alumi- mum firm monopolized, not only eliminating all efforts of compe- tition in the production of virgin aluminium in this country, but also making arrangements with foreign producers to keep the domestic price of the virgin metal at an exhorbitant figure.
