the fortress, which stood atop a
similar hill, 5000 yards to the

Then we saw tanks 60 into

a string Of monstrous, angry

Cites Speed
Made On Bill

Representative Irvine 4. Watkins
at home for the week end from the
General Assembly, where he IS a
member of the House, gave it as his
opinion today that the revenue bill
now being considered by the finance
committee would be reported out IN
about two weeks after hearings have
been concluded and all sections of the
measure approved.
Mr.. Watkins is a member of the
finance committee and is familiar
with progress being made on the bill.
He feels that the legislature as a
whole has gotten off to a good stalt
and that it should have no trouble
completing its work within but little
more than the constitutional sixty
days prescribed for the biennial
meetings OF the legislature.

Edsel Ford to answer an allegation
by the union that the Ford Co. pro-
voked the strike "as part of its de-
sign to impede national defense"
Says Men Pushed Around"
Mr.. Widmans statement alleged
that union workers were roughly
searched" and pushed around and
punched" by a heavily armed crowd
of about so men" after entering
Gate 4. AS each worker entered
the gate, the statement went on,
"a service worker brought him to
heavily armed crowd of about so
men. Union buttons were
ripped of coats and hats and union
cards were taken and torn up"
Mr.. Dewey said this afternoon, fol-
lowing a new series of conferences
with State officials and U. A. VIC.
I. o. representatives that he believed
Substantial progress" was being
made. He said he had assurances
again from Ford executives that no
back-to-Work movement will be
countenanced while mediation ef-
forts are being continued.
Expects Early Agreement.
Mr. Dewey added that he expected
to formulate before nightfall an
agreement with company officials
for the evacuation of the Negro
workers within the plant.
He declined to discuss a suggestion
that the Negroes would be taken out
on large Ford freighter now at
the company docks with steam up.
Mr.. Widman, however, said the union
would agree to their peaceful eyacu-
alton through the picket lines.

they played last July.
