Conferees 10 Decide
Restrictions on FEPC
Imposed by Senate
Ry J. A. O'LEARY.

Southern Senators lost their
fight yesterday to deprive the
Presidents Fair Employment
Practices Committee Of its $780,
600 fund in the war agencies bill
but succeeded In placing three
restrictions on the committee S
power to deal with racial dis
elimination in war jobs.
These three amendments must be
adjusted by House and Senate con-
ferees along with other Senate
changes in the $1,000, ,Ooo, 900 supply
bill for q dozen home-front war
agencies, which the Senate finally
passed last night.
After the Senate had refused, 80
to 81. to strike the FEPC money
from the bill. Senator Russell; DEM
ocrat, of Georgia had these three
limitations attached to the agency s
appropriation:
l. Granting an employer the right
OF an appeal to the President from
any order of the FEPC he deemed
unfair.
2. Forbidding Government seizure
of plant as penalty for failure
to carry out an FEPC ruling.
3. Prohibiting FEPC from issuing
any order that would repeal, amend
or modify an act Of Congress.
RolIcan Favorable, n 10 rs.
The second limitation passed by
q rollcall vote of n to rs, while
the first and third went in or
voice votes. These were not all oi
Senator Russell's amendments, but
he failed to muster q ma jority or
the others, which would have:
Prohibited FEPC from taking any
steps that would have the effect
Of abrogating existing contracts be-
tween employers and unions: re-
Iquired FEPC to reduce the number
of colored employees on its own staff
by preventing the use Of more than
one-fourth Of the appropriation to
employ members OF minority ra-

The voting came at the end OF
day in which Southern Democrats,
including Bilbo of Mississippi,
George Of Georgia. Mcclellan of
Arkansas, Hill of Alabama and Con-
nally of Texas opposed the presi-
dental committee.
When the showdown came late in
the day, only Republicans and
Western Democrat, Johnson Of
Colorado, Joined Is Southern DEM
ocrats in voting to strike out the
appropriation, while % Democrats
and 16 Republicans lined up for
FEPC. Senator Pepper of Florida
was the only Democrat from the
Solid South who voted for FEPC.
Senator Bilbo ended one of his
typical speeches On racial issues by
suggesting II his plan to resettle
American Negroes in West Africa
goes through, that Mrs. Eleanor
Roosevelt be considered for queen
of that Greater Liberia"
II do not see why Mrs. Roosevelt
or any one else should object to it,"
said the Mississippian, referring to
his resetuement plan. "Of course,
she did not understand my ultimate
plan. If 1 can succeed eventually in
resettling the great majority of the
Negroes in West Africa. I might en-
tertain the proposition of making
her queen of that Greater Liberia"
Mead Hits Restrictions.
Leading the defense Of FEPC was
Senator Mead, Democrat, of New
York, who protested against hasty
adoption Of the Russell restrictions
after the agency had been sus-
tanned. Senator Murdock, Demo-
crat, of Utah. Joined in to observe
that, after marching up the hill in
support of FEPC the Senate was
marching down again by adopting
the limitations.
Senator Lucas, Democrat, Of Illi-
nois declared, LOB discrimination is
indefensible when manpower bot
tlenecks are impeding the war ef-
fort" The argument running
through the Southern speeches was
that FEPC is working for social
equality rather than against eco
nomic discrimination.
On motion OF Senator Vanden-
berg, Republican, Of Michigan the
Senate restored the Committee for
Congested Production Areas. an

Whenever the General Accounting
Office has reason to believe there is
fraud involved, Senator Murray said,
it will so certify to the Attorney
General, the Justice Department will
step in, and payments to the con-
tractor may be withheld.
If a claim turned out to be fraud
ulent, the claimant would be subject
to penalty of IS per cent Of the

Senator Murray said the compro-
mise was to be presented to the Sem

Collective Security
Urged by Chang at
Dinner for Wallace
BY the Associated Press.

CHUNGKING, June 21.-A gen.
eral system of collective security,
backed If necessary by an adequate
international force, was urged by
President Chang Kai-shek tonight
at q brilliant state banquet given by
him and Nine. Chang in honor of
Vice President Henry A. Wallace.
China wishes to live in good
neighborliness, harmony and peace
with all nations, the generaliSsimo
said.
The Chinese believe, he said, in
an ever-increasing cooperation
with other countries in matters
economic, financial, cultural and
political, land in the development Of
our industry and our immense nat
ural resources We will welcome for
eign investment and foreign tech
nicians."
Pending the Inauguration Of COL
lective security. which he said could
not be achieved unless the military
might of the common enemies is
totally annihilated, Chang said the
United States, the British Common
wealth, the Soviet Union and China
must shoulder the responsibility of
maintaining international peace"
Demilitarization of Japan.
Mr.. Wallace said there was good
reason to hope that the eighth
year of China's resistance. to the
japanese (Which begins on July y
will be the final year Of japanese
aggression in China, in Asia and in
the Pacific"
He said he considered the three
essentials to the maintenance of
peace in Eastern Asia and the Pa
cific to be the demilitarization OF
Japan, understanding and collabo-
ration among the nations of the
Pacific and self-government for the
peoples of Asia.
The japanese are now trading
space for time in the Pacific, but
both space and time are against
them" he said. "In due course, we
hope to find them trading space for
time in China, but they will be
faced with a determined Chinese
Army receiving cooperation from
American forces, which will allow
them no time for trading"
The state banquet followed q tour.
in which Mr.. Wallace rubbed shotil-
ders with cheering students, whom
he told to work for the day when
all the people of China can read and
write"
Guest Of War Minister.
Mr.. Wallace also visited 4 CO.
operative cloth-weaving plant and
then dashed out to an occupational
camp for wounded soldiers, where
he studied the manufacture of UNI
brellas and wicker furniture.
He was luncheon guest of Gen :.
Ho Ying chin, Chinese minister of
war.

ed assertion that he had become the
forgotten man" of the Republican
party.
Such Willkie admirers as Mr..
Bradley and Mr.. Burroughs clung to
the belief that unless the 1910 nom-
inee's ideas on foreign policy and
other issues are approached by the
final draft of the platform the COP
may lose the support Of mini
mum of Willkie- minded, 100000
voters-a margin many party men,
bers consider sufficient to turn the
election tide.
The fact that Mr.. Willkie was not
invited to speak at next weeks con-
vention formed the subject of much
discussion at news conference yes
terday by National Chairman Har-
rison E.. Spangler.
Mr.. spangler insisted that Mr..
Willkie had not been Disseminated
against, declaring he had been in
vited to sit as a guest on the speak
ers platform. OF the group of form
er presidential nominees, only Her
bert Hoover has been asked to talk.
Mr.. Spangler, incidentally, seemed
to side with those who thought
there would be q quick decision on
the Presidential question. predicting

Spangler thought that the Vice
Presidential nomination could be
made the following day.
In Baltimore, Chairman Galen L.
TAFT of the Maryland State Central
Committee left for the convention
with q denial that there will be
split in the delegations ranks. He
declared it still favored Gov. Dewey,
although perhaps one or two dele
gates might shift to Gov. Bricker.
