Leaders Expect 1t to Be
Nearer June l; Monopoly
Fight Is Launched

Washington April 3O-(AP) Chair
man May, Democrat, Kentucky, CT
the House Military Committee, sad
todya he had asked a House Approp-
nations subcommittee to set aside
$124,0o0,00O of President Roosevelt's
proposed new public works fund for
construction of five major army nj
bases, and improvement of existing
army posts.
One of the new air bases would be
located in Alaska, May said, and the
others would be established at strA-
tegic points in the United States
proper
Other developments:
Adjournment sentiment gained i:
both House and Senate today in the
wake of another humping defeat for
the administration on the revised
wage-hour hill, despite President
Roosevelt's latest demand for such
legislation.
Senate Majority Leader Barkley
held to his prediction Congress woul
pack up and go home by May i.
House leaders fixed the quitting date
close to June 1.
AS for the anti-monopoly message
received from the President yester-
day, the consensus was that it would
not prolong the session.
Senate and House were in recess
Decentralization of the business
structure became a broad new admin
istration objective This goal was set
by the President in a militant anti
monopoly message to Congress, asking
100000 appropriation for studies
of virtually all fundamental aspects
of the nations business life, pre-
liminary to congressional action to
break up "a concentration of private
power without equal in history"

the National Mediation Board wou!t
come into action. The board may en-
ter a dispute at the request Of either
