Frank Graham. acting chairman
of the Mediation Board, told a press
conference the board had considered
the case at closed meeting and
decided to defer action pending the
outcome of a conference called by
Sidney Hillman, acting o. P. M. di-
rector, late this afternoon.
The Kearny yard was one of four
big East Coast shipbuilding plants
working on defense production which
were beset by labor troubles.
Mr.. Granam said the company
had turned down board recommen-
dations made last week and that
after failure of such recommended
tions 'the only thing left to do is
to refer a case to the White House"
Plane Plant Was Taken Over.
In one Mediation Board case re-
ferred to the White House-that of
a strike at North American Avia-
tons plant in California-the Army
took over the plant temporarily.

lehem Steel Co. were subjected to a
work holiday. but c. I. o. union Off
cials ordered 5000 employees back to
work at two Bethlehem plants in
Brooklyn. The third Bethlehem
plant where the stoppage continued
is on Staten Island, N. Y. The work
order followed a conference of COM
pany and union officials.
just before the back to work order,
Mr.. Hillman hastily called con-
ference here of Federal shipbuild-
ing and c. I. o. union officials with
defense, Navy and Maritime Com
mission officials to discuss the strike.
The meeting was hurriedly called,
he said, "in view of the vital i'm
portance of shipbuilding in the de-
fense effort"
Cruiser Launching Delayed.
At the Kearny plant alone, $493,-
900 900 worth of naval ano merchant
ship construction was hit by the
strike called by the c. I. o. at mid
night. Other defense production
was halted at the New York yards.
Because of the stoppage, company
officials said launching of the Navy's
light cruiser Atlanta, scheduled for
Saturday, would be postponed. They
added that delivery of two merchant
vessels would be delayed.
The stoppages at the Bethlehem
yards, the company said, involved
union representation, but officials of
both C. I. o. and A. F. L. unions said
wage demands were the root of the
trouble.

BY the Associated Press.
The House this afternoon SuS-
tanned by two votes President
Roosevelt's veto of legislation
authorizing expenditure of $320,-
100000 for defense highway
needs, thereby killing the bill.
The members voted. on a roll call
announced as 251 to 128, to override
the veto, but the vote fell just
two votes short of the necessary
two-thirds required in such cases.
The Senate voted 81 to 10 yesterday
to override.
After the House roll call had been
completed Speaker Rayburn an
nounced that the vote was "close
enough" to warrant recapitulation
so the roll was read-a rare proce-
dure and the vote was announced
as 251 to 128.
With 379 members voting on the
question, 253 Affirmative votes would
have been required to pass the bill
over the veto.
Chairman Cartwright of the House
Roads Committee told the House
the President vetoed the legislation
because it did not give him the
power to spend the money where he
wants" He urged that the veto be
overridden.
Representative Taber, Republican,
of New York, a frequent critic of
administration policies, urged that
the veto be sustained, contending
the measure authorized more ex-
penditures than were needed.
