tionists make bleaching their
favorite summer sport in Southern
California.
Those who want to swim enjoy
the tangy Pacific surf. But the
beach is by no means confined to
swimmers. The smooth sand makes
a magnificent athletic field, and
games of football baseball and
volleyball are organized by bathing

tumbling and acrobaticS.
Others set up checker and ping

for picnics in the cool ocean breeze,
and for barbecueS and hot-dog bakes
in the balmy evenings. There are
beautiful shells, starfsh and moon
stones to hunt. For the children
the beach is a vast sand pile.

Wild Game Photo
Fans Find Jasper
Exciting Section

JASPER NATIONAL PARK,
June 14.-There are more wild
game photography opportunities
within the 1900 square miles
comprising Jasper National Park
In the Canadian Rockies than
any other place in North Amer
lea, says Ivan Dmitri, celebrated
American photographer and mas
ter color lensman.
Fine snaps may be obtained
of elk, moose or big-horned sheep
even from horseback along Jas
per's trails or from the highways
in this park, which is larger in
area than the State of Connecti-
cut, without leaving the auto
mobile.
Moose, adult and cub black
and cinnamon bears, beaver,
deer of all sizes and varieties,
mountain goats, sheep and many
other animals are fair camera
game in Jasper.
The atmosphere, crystal clear,
and mountain lakes fringed with
spruce and pine forests, above
which tower glaciers and snow
capped peaks, offer those con-
trasts of light and shade which
make sharp prints.
The fact that some species of
wild game usually are on the
move and must be approached
against the wind, wild game pho
Biography proves an interesting
pastime. While Jasper abounds
in deer, bear and moose that
can be photographed with SIM
pie equipment, camera hunters
who get a thrill from stalking
their quarry are advised by Mr..
Dmitri to take along telescope
lens, lens shades and filters, as
some animals moving within so
yards of a lens become lost in

East will cut down his average

Accordingly, there is no reason at

at hand to find out who is running

Subcommittee Gets Bill.
The outlook for early action on
defense strike legislation switched
late today from the House to the
Senate when special judiciary
Subcommittee was appointed to be-
gin work Friday morning on the

to ask if he felt the President now
has, or lacks. sufficient power to
deal with the situation.
Senator Connally said there was
some doubt about the adequacy of
existing power Referring to the coal
mines, the Texan thought there
would be no question of the Presi-

defense, but he pointed out some of
the coal might be used to heat

Truman Sees Racket

From Workers Pay,
Senotors Are Told
By the Associated Press.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Nov. IL
Certain labor practices at the Wolf
Greek ordnance plant look like
plain racketeering to me-" Senator
Truman. Democrat, of Missouri de-
clared bluntly today at the opening
session of Senate defense investi-
eating committee which is conduct
ing a hearing into charges of waste
and extravaganza at the big Gov
ernment project.
Senator Truman. chairman of the
committee, made the statement after
1t. Richard l.. Pennington of the
plants ordnance department testi-
fed that Hugo Glatt, business agent
of the Cement Finishers' Union
"a F. L. at the shell-loa ding prof.
ect. collected per cent of the wages
OF union workers there.
You mean he's shaking these
people down for S per cent?" Senator
Truman asked
We'll. he collects it, replied 1t.
Pennington.
How much does it amount to a
week." interposed Senator Brewster,
Republican, of Maine
About ST 900 a week" the witness
declared.
What happens asked Senator
Truman, IF a man refuses?"
Some of them keep on working"
1t. Pennington replied
Senator Truman interrupted at
that point to declare, This thing
looks like plain racketeering to me-
1t. Pennington previously had
testified that cement finishers on the
project paid $50 initiation fees and
So month in dues to the union in
addition to the per cent payment.
The first witness was Maj, Joseph
Horridge, former constructing
quartermaster at the plant and now
the Armys commanding officer
there. Mai Horridge declared he
had encountered no problem of per-
sonnel labor or equipment up until
the time he left the quartermasters
office last March.
Senator Brewster, Republican, of
Maine told Lev v. Loring, president
of the Memphis Trades and Labor
Council and labor co-ordinator for
the. 10 operating unions at the plant,
Il believe you can do labor every
where real service by helping us
get complete information here"
Previously Senator Brewster had
failed to obtain from Mr.. Loring
an estimate of the amount collected
by unions at the plant in dues, ini-
tiation fees and assessments. Mr..
Loring declared he had no way of
knowing.
Don't you think it's the con-
Germ of the Government how it's
money is being spent on these jobs?"
Senator Brewster asked angrily. He
then requested Mr.. Loring to OBJ
tain from each of the 10 crafts at
the plant records of all money COL
lected. Mr.. Loring agreed to do so.
