in Dispute.
INDEPENDENCE NEEDED
IN MEMBERS, HE SAYS
Truman Motion to Allow Removal
Finally Adopted After
Close Vote.

The unusual strategy Of q member
Of Congress fighting passage of legis-
lation for which he has been a spon.
sor was indicated when the Senate
resumes consideration of the civil
aviation control bill next week, al
Senator McCarran, Democrat, of Ne
vada made plain his disfavor for yes
terday's action in making members
of the proposed control board re-
movable by the President.
The controversy began when Sena-
tor Truman. Democrat. of Missouri
moved to strike from the bill a pro-
vision denying the President power
to remove board members, except
for ineficiency, neglect of duty OF
malfeasance.
Senator McCarran protested that
this proposal would wreck the whole
bill' and announced he would move
Monday to pigeonhole his own bill
providing for creation of the agency.
If this Aviation Control Board is
not independent it isn't anything"
he said
Must Exercise Judgment.
III board member can't exercise
his Judgment as to a crash, accident
or other matters. then what's the use
Of an agency?" he asked.
Recalling the Senate fight over
President Roosevelts court reorgani-
zation proposals, Senator McCarran
asked the Senate:
How would you like to place the
Supreme Court under control of the
President and every time its decisions
do not meet with popular clamor, he
could remove the justices?"
Senator Barkley of Kentucky. the
Democratic leader, replied that a
board member might be efficient. at
tentive to duty. and above malfeas-
ance, but still be most undesirable,
refuse to cooperate. and be out Of
step with the Executive
Referring TO the recent victory of
administration supported Senator
Pepper in the Florida primaries, Sen
ator Schwartz, Democrat, of Wyoming,
said:
The people down there didn't
seem to be disturbed about presidential
powers"
Vote Is Close.
In the first vote on the question,
the go Senators divided evenly. Re-
publicans. Farmer-Laborites. Senator
La Toilette, Progressive, of Wisconsin,
and part Of the Democrats supporting
Senator McCarran.
Administration leaders spared for
time and put Senator Truman's mo-.
ton over by vote of "a to 2s when
Senators Bone, Democrat, of Wash
ington, and King, Democrat, of Utah
changed their votes and Senators
Ashurst, Democrat, of Arizona, and
Hayden, Democrat, of Arizona entered

order to be free under parliamentary
rules to ask reconsideration Of the
question later, a strategem admins

One of Several Incidents.
BY the Associated Press.
Senator Holt, Democrat, of West
Virginia. charged today that Secretary

New Dealish" as they hoped"
Senator Holt charged that Secretary
Wallace's failure to give the defend
ants in the stockyards case an oppor-
tunity to rebut an examiners findings
constituted another attempt to build
up administrative law higher than

GETS MOVED
 ACROSS KUSKOKWIM

The building of new McGrath is well under way according to A. Shonbeck who just returned to Anchorage from the opera tions of the Holky Dredging Co.,, near McGrath.
 The old site of the town is be- ing abandoned because it is so low that 1t floods in the spring and fall so that the floors of build ings and the airport are under water.
 At present the water is over the floor in the old Northern Commercial Company store that burned this summer and the P. A. A. radio operator had to walk around in hip boots when he works.
 New McGrath is springing up on the opposite side of the Kus- kokWim from it's old location on higher ground that is not subject to flooding, Mir Shonbeck said. The N C. has put in new store with a full concrete basement, which is practically unpreced- ented in that area. Lew Laska is also ready to open up a new store and warehouse.
 Elaborate plans are being made to move Dave Clough'S new road house across the Kusko as soon as the ice forms and pre- llmlnary preparations can be made. The miners in this district will assemble their tractors and pull the building across the ice.
 The new airport on the high side of the river is said to be one of the best in the interior and is in position to be open the year around.
 MT. Shonbeck says the interior Is experiencing it's yearly rainy spell and that everything is flooded. He also said that the Holky company has had sat isfactory" season up to date.
