RELIEF PROGRAM
 IS FACING FIGHT

Washington, June 15.-(UP)-The administration faced a major test of strength today in senate considera- ton of President Roosevelt's $1,5OO,- 100000 relief program for the 1888 fiscal year.
 Veteran senators predicted vig- orous fight between White House supporters and members seeking to restrict for the first time the admin istration's blanket spending author ity.
 They expected debate to last sev- eral days. Controversy centered on two points:
 l. Provision that local communi- ties be required to furnish 70 per cent of the cost of projects under the Works Progress Administration.
 3. A section prohibiting WPA from using unobligated balances of past appropriation bills.
 Both issues split the senate ap- propriations committee with the presidents forces losing. The com mittee minority submitted a report bitterly assailing the majority de- cision.

 Electric Plant

Ambridge, Pa, June 15.!(UP)- Twenty men were injured in riot ing between rival unions today when the National Electric Products com pany tried to reopen its strike bound plant here.
 Extra police discharged tear gas bombs before order was restored.
 The company had ordered its 1850 employees to report for work today after the national labor relations board upheld a wage scale contract the firm recently signed with the International Brotherhood of Elec- trical Workers, an American Fedora ton of Labor affiliate.
 The United Electric & Radio Workers of America, affiliated with the Committee for Industrial Or ganization, had charged violation of the Wagner act against the company and called strike in the plant two weeks ago.
 March of A. F. of L.
 Fifty workers, said to be members of the A. F. of L. union, marched up OuSS avenue, chantlng: were going back to work; we're going back to work" Five hundred pickets and a milling crowd of 5000 sympathizers watched. As the group neared the plant, someone shouted: Don't let them go through" The pickets charged workers 50 feet from the 14th street gate. The workers were clubbed with broom handles, sticks and fists. Stones and bricks were thrown during the brief fight.
 c. I. O. spokesmen had announced they would resist efforts to reopen the plant when the management last night invited the workers to re- turn today. Extra police had been placed on duty as a result.
 The officers discharged several tear gas bombs to restore order.
