Relations between the Legislature and the Governors Office were more than little strained yester- day afternoon as the Governor in- formed the House and Senate that he had used his veto power on the appropriations bill for the Depart ment of Labor.
 The House voted II to to over ride the veto, but the Senate lacked one vote-five Senators vote d against sustaining the veto, three in favor-so the necessary two- thirds was lacking and the veto stands.
 Doc Walker Stirred
 In the Senate, Senator N. R Walker of Ketchikan found it nec- essary for the first time to go against the Governors veto. The Senior Member said that to up- hold the Governors veto was the same as tearing the law creating the Labor Department out Of the books.
 And in the House, Rep. William A. Egan, who said he has long ad- mired the Governor as a brilliant man, believed that the Governor veto of this bill was based on cer- tain prejudices.' Egan said he hat ed to believe this, but because of the veto message. itself, could reach no other conclusion.
 The bill, H. B. 30, would have appropriated a total of S37 406.32 for the Department, including a raise to $5,O00 a year for the Con- missioner of Labor.
 The Governor delivered lengthy veto message giving the following reasons for the veto:
 Reasons
 That the appropriation should have been contained in the regu- lar appropriation bill and the sal ary raise in a special bill.
 That the history of the Depart ment of Labor and the original bill which created the Department also had a bearing on the veto. The Governor quoted the letter which he wrote two years ago upon al- lowing the bill for the creation oi the Department to become a law without his signature In this let ter he pointed out many things which he considered defects, in-

LARGE GERMAN
 SUB I5 RAMMED,
 THEN SENT DOWN
Coast Guard Ship Has 12 Hour Running Fight
 with U-bodt Pack

WASHINGTON, March IS. - A large German submarine was ram- med and sunk by the Coast Guard cutter Campbell in the North At lantic about three weeks ago, the Navy announces.
 At the end of 12-hour running fight waged by the cutter against a U-boat wolf pack, the cutter rammed at point blank range, the Navy says.
 The submarine settled slowly by the stern and then sank.
 The Associated Press also pre- sents dramatic successes against the U-boats on the Atlantic not cnly by the Coast Guard but by other patrols.
 Three submarines were destroyed by Allied escort vessels when an at tack was made on convoy.
 Aircraft have also spotted other undersea craft and dropped depth bombs with success or given warn ing and surface craft have done their effective work.
 The Associated Press also gives notice of an attack by British and American fighter planes, RAF Lib orators and Sunderlands that joined in a 72 hour running battle against submarines which attacked another convoy and at least three large U-boats were sent to the bottom. The action is described as one of the greatest naval sea battles of the winter. The convoy suffered some loss.

The W ashington Merry Co., Round
By DREW PEARSON (Major Robert s. Allen on active duty9

WASHINGTON Despite the cri- ticism you may hear of American planes, U. s. airmen who h ave studied the current bombings of Europe say privately that one Am erican bomber is worth five of the British.
 American planes are heavily armed and heavily arrpored. Able to protect themselves, they oper- ate in the daylight, with precision bombing, whereas the British planes, flying at night, must lay down pattern of bombs over a whole area, hoping that the prin- cipal target will be hit.
 British planes can carry heavier load of bombs, but the fewer bombs carried by the American planes are more effective because they go straight to the target,
 Further. American planes nave suffered fewer losses proportionate- ly than the British, both operation al and combat losses.
 In fact the American contribu- ton is so important that the all- out bombing of Germany must await the availability of more U. $. planes.
 Most people think there is a heavy concentration of American planes in England now, and that the current round -the-clock bomb ings are the big show. Neither is correct.
 There was a concentration of U. s. planes in England last summer and fall, made with intended pub licity. This had the effect of send ing the Nazis scurrying all over western Europe to mend their de- lenses. Then U. s. air strength was pulled out of England for the mls- sion it had been intended for-the invasion of North Africa.
 U. s. air strength in England Is now being built up again, and when the time comes, the two air forces combined will stage the show h- tended to knock Germany out of the war.

Leqis|aiion for Veterans May Hif Congress Soon;
 Extra Representation
By JACK sTINNETT

WASHINGTON, March 18.--Any day now veterans legislation may crop up in Congress. When it does, the veterans will be better repre- scented than they ever have been in any previous war,
 A recent poll of the new Con- gress has disclosed that there now are 189 war veterans on the floor -28 in the Senate and 161 in the House.
 Not only does this mean that more than 35 per cent of Congress will be full of sympathy and un- derstanding in matters of rehabil- itation, disqualification and com pensation for disabilities, but it also means that that portion of Congress has working knowledge of military affairs.
 Two Senators and six Represen- tatiyes date their experiences from the Spanish American war. They are Senators Tom Connally tTexas) and Guy Gillette Iowa) and Re- presentatives Culkin, Kitchener, Rog- CTS (Pa). Wadsworth, White and Woodruff (Mich). Senator Gillette and Representatives Culkin and Woodruff also served in World War I.
 Representatives Maas. Satterfield, Scott, Van Zandt and Walters have served in both World Wars I and IT, and Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr., and Representatives Lyndon Johnson, Magnuson, Will Rogers, Jr., and Morley have served in the present conflict.
 Five Senators and 36 Representa- tives served with the Navy, so there's no likelihood that any branch will be sighted.
 Brig. Gen Robert L. Denig, in charge of public relations for the Marine Corps, thinks he has a unique location for a press depart ment. His offices are in the section of the Pentagon building that looks out on Arlington cemetery.
 The other morning." he said recently, i've were trying to knock out some bright pieces and there
