colony at the Zoo-the birth of cubs

While stork III the nearby bird

Blackburn peered unbelievingly-
from a safe distance-into the dark
den in which Mrs. Ursus (of the
Middendorfh Ursuses of Kadiak
Island, Alaska), had been in retire

Blackburn'S ears and eyes did not
deceive him. There, in corner of the
den, were at least two-he couldn't
be sure of the numbe--tiny cubs in
the midst of hearty meal. From his
point of vantage the head keeper
could not discern the color of the
cubs.
Blackburn rushed breathlessly with
the news to DR.. Mann, who was in

obtained equal division of a $780,

The committee introduced last week

that Newport News Shipbuilding and

Corp. and Bethlehem Shipbuilding Co
were bidding collusively so as tc
share the work.
"AS I told the committee at the

learn that there had been any such
equal distribution of the work" he
told the committee. Since then ]
have had opportunity to examine the
facts and I find that the records are
erroneous in two respects"

REPORT EXPECTED
ON aD-HOUR BILL

Submit Findings With
Hearings Over.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A Senate judiciary subcommittee
started work today on the preparation
of its report to the full committee on
the bill proposing a 30-hour week
Spokesman for industry and labor
presented their divergent views on the
measure during two weeks of hearings
which were concluded Saturday.
Chairman Nicely, Democrat, of West
Virginia, said more than 100 others
had asked to appear.
Objection Already Raised.
Bitter objection to the measure,
which makes its appearance with the
backing of the American Federation
of Labor, already has been raised by
the powerful consumers goods indus
tries.
A 3O-hour week, declared the spokes-
man for this group-George A. Sloan
of New York, chairman of the Cotton
Textile Authority-would "aggravate
and continue the depression"
Give industry "a breathing spell" +"
he appealed to Senator Nicely in a
brief made public by the subcommittee.
Destructive Effects Seen.
Sloan in his brief asserted 30-hour
week would:
"Dislocate industry and destroy con-
fidence, create cost burdens impossible
to bear; increase prices, curtail pro-
duction and decrease employment;
nullify the policy of restoring the
farmers purchasing power to parity,
further curtail exports and increase
imports, retard the normal method of
recovery-revival of the durable goods
and construction industries, force
bankruptcies, foment strikes and labor
troubles and strike death blow at
many small industries, stimulate the
displacement of labor by machinery
and set back recovery for an indefinite
period of years"

very rare among bears" DR.. Mann
said today, "I don't know of a single
case on record where a polar bear
and a Kadiak bear have mated before.
We have refrained from making a
more careful investigation of the cubs
because we are afraid the mother
might kill them if disturbed"
DR.. Mann said the father, fine
cream white specimen Of ursus mari
timus from the polar regions, was
placed in the cage with the Kadiak
brown bear because of crowded con-
ditions at the Zoo. There had been no
hint of a romance between the two.
Mrs. UrSus was presented to the
Zoo several years ago by Paul Red
dington, former chief of the Biological
Survey. She is about 6 years old. Mr..
Ursus, also about years old. came
here as a cub from a Zoo in Scotland
Polar bears are recognized by zoolo-
gists as a distinct type of the bear
family and have been regarded as
most exclusive in their mating habits.
Kadiak bears are like many other
species of the Ursus family in gen.
eral appearance. They are extremely
fond of salmon, which abound in the
vicinity Of Kadiak Island-a taste
which they share in common with the
polar variety.
