SEES OUTCOME
"If this position is continued,
wherein the representatives of
the people refuse to recognize
the necessity of inquiring into
the grievances of the workers
and aiding the workers to better
these conditions and obtain liv-
ing and working conditions suit
able to American standards, any
new political group taking ad-
vantage of the dissatisfaction
that exists will thrive and might
become an important factor"
Curran criticized the committee
for refusing to grant q hearing
to Harry Bridges, West Coast
maritime leader, affiliated with
the CIO. The Australian-born la.
Dor leader has been described as

wrong in the country. The fact
that we are able to give relief to
these people by using Govern

people Of this country demand
work. They are not satisfied
to accept charity, whether it
be from the Government or from

end breathing spell"
At his press conference to-
morrow, shortly before train time,
Mr.. Roosevelt is expected to make
pronouncement on price levels
that Administration officials hope
will have a salutary effect on the
commodity market. A return to
1925 levels is the goal.
RESPITE FOR BUSINESS
Meanwhile, one White House
caller contended that the Presi-
dent, through a series of moves
during recent weeks, has presented
business itself with another much
desired breathing SPELL"
This visitor conceded there had
been no letter to anyone formally
proclaiming an armistice between
the New Deal and business such
as was written in 1886 to Pub
fisher Roy Howard; in fact, pre-
dicted there would be none, but
pointed to a succession of develop
ments engineered by Mr.. Roose-
velt as proof the breathing spell"
actually was in effect.
These moves to reassure bust
ness were listed as follows:
1. Potential expansion Of the
credit base through partial aban-
donment of the gold sterilization
policy. At the 10 to / ratio, the
500, ,000,O 900 in gold returned to
circulation by April would
have credit possibilities Of a
billion dollars.
"SCARES" AVOIDED
2. President Roosevelt's care
full avoidance in recent press
conferences of making any
statements apt to frighten in
dustry.
3. Insistence of Senate Ma
jority Leader Barkley and House
Majority Leader Rayburn, who
are in constant touch with the
, White House, that no more
major legislative proposals are
in sight from the President for
the remainder Of this session.
4. Assurances of RFC Chair
man Jesse H. Jones, following
conferences with Mr.. Roosevelt,
that a way will be worked out
to make loans available to small
' business.
S. The laying down OF an
$500, 100000 naval construction
program, designed to pump oxy.
gen into the sagging heavy goods
industries.
NEW RELIEF TO AID
6. Expenditure Of an addi-
tional emergency $3.50, 0,000,0 900
; for relief.

ers. The President told so mem.

Lynch Bills
Status Stirs
NeW ROW

(I.N.S) A row broke out today
between anti-lynching bill sponsors
and its enemies over whether the
measure should be permanently
shelved by the Senate for action
on the $3.50 100000 emergency re
lief bill or merely postponed.
Senator Wagner CD of New
York served notice he would fight
for "postponement' of the anti
lynching bill, to be considered
again Immediately after the relief
bill is passed.
CONNALLY OBJECTS
"That won't do growled Sen.
ator Tom Connally CD Of
Texas, leader of the opposition.
1.-THE relief bill has the right of
way. The anti-lynching bill
should be laid aside perma.
nently so the relief bill can be
taken up. Supporters of the
anti-lynching bill ought to know
by now they can never get a
vote on that bill"
The showdown was expected K
come Monday. While Admins
tration leaders we're driving fol
Senate action on the relief bill be
fore Monday, there was doubt i
would be reported in time by thu
Appropriations Committee.
Some supporters Of the anti
lynching bill admitted privatel!
they were ION the spot" Opinion
differed on whether motion t,
postpone would carry. With al
overwhelming majority Of tn
Senate in favor of the bill, thougl
unable to vote on it because o
the filibuSter, they found it diff
cult to vote against a motion :
postpone rather than ditch tn
bill entirely.
ATTITUDE OF G. o. P.
Most OF the Republicans wer
expected to vote for postpone
ment, thereby cont inuing y
plague the Democratic majorit,
with the bill. While the G. o. F
Senators voted against cloture
with few exception, they were de
termined to keep the bill befor
the Senate as long as possible.
Despite these maneuvers it wa
generally agreed the anti.lynct
ing bill will not pass at this session
of Congress; that the band o
Southern Senators. augmented b
a sprinkling of western Senators
are organized we'll enough to pre-
vent a vote. With elections il

bill were loath to vote for perma
