Will Retain
Recent Pay Hike

LOS ANGELES, May "a. up
The municipal department of water
and power commission decided that
department employees could keep
recent pay increases despite objec-
tionS of President James B. AgneW
that the pay hikes were in VIOLA
ton of the economic stabilization
policy.
However, the board voted that
the city attorney report on the
proposal that the national associa-
ton Of municipalities be asked to
institute a test case to decide the
commissions liability in the case.
Such a test case would find out
if it would be practicable to have
the beneficiaries of the pay in
creases set up a fund from which
the money could be repaid should
the courts hole the city officials
liable for violation of the wage
stabilization act and of the war
labor board rulings.
The pay raises, in most cases eX-
ceeding $40 a month, exceeded cost
of living indices by more than two
per cent, a board of conSultantS had
reported to the commission.

TOOTHSOME TALE
OF A COWGAL

Dale Evans debut on a horse as
celluloid sagebrush queen was
disastrous. Her teeth flew out of
her mouth and the horse stepped on
them. But since then everything
has been going along nicely, thank
you.
For the sake of the record, Dale
is one of the prettiest young gals
who ever jerked her thumb at a
Hollywood posse and said, They
went thataway."
Half the screen glamor girls we
know wear caps on their teeth.
That's what catapulted out OF Dale's
mouth the first time she rode a
horse in front of movie camera
a $500 set of nice porcelain caps for
her lower three front teeth. And
earned if the horse didn't ignore
her yells.
A dentist has since fixed up
Dale with a set of non-flying caps.

BiddIe Defends
Ward Decision
In House Probe

WASHINGTON, May "a. tUP)-
Attorney General Francis Biddle
conceded Wednesday that there is
room for disagreement on the legal
aspects" Of the governments seiz-
ure last month of Montgomery
Ward q Co.'S Chicago properties
But" he told a house committee
investigating the case. no attorney
general in advising the President
can do more than interpret the law
as he sees it, trusting TO the courts
to correct him if he is wrong and
to congress to make any changes in
the law which it deems wise"
Biddle. third witness before the
committee. emphasized that he be-
lievec he was right in telling PreSi-
dent Roosevelt before the seizure
that he possessed full authority
under the war labor disputes act to
take over the properties.
MAIN ISSUE
THE ultimate issue" he said
was whether all CT our effort anG
energy was going to be devoted to
fighting our enemies abroad or
whether the country was to be dis
tracted by an internal economic
war waged by recalcitrant employ
ers or recalcitrant unions as the
case might be
Biddle insisted that Montgomery
Ward was in no different position
from the owners of other plants and
facilities that have been taken un-
der the act"
CITES DUTY
1t was "our duty To treat the
company exactly as the statute re-
quired and as other owners had
been treated in other cases." he
asserted.
Biddle justified presidential ac-
ton in the Ward case - even if the
firm was not engaged in actual
war production - with the state
ment that:
Unless the civilian economy is
tc be dismissed as uninlportant, or
unless we are TO assume that only
part of the country and not all of
it is at war, this was an emer-
gency situation.
But if congress should decide
that changes in the law are neces-
sary, Biddle urged attention to two
points:
l. No statute dealing with war;
time disputes should depend for
its application on technical distinc-
ticns between manufacture and
production on the one hand and
other essential economic operations
on the other"
2. The presidents power to deal
with labor disputes arising out Of
defiance to war labor beard orders
should not be narrower" than the
WLB's power to deal with such dis
putes. Otherwise. it will be impos-
sible to enforce WLB orders.

Although prices of some California

Dale didn't get mixed up in hoss

cause she could sing.
PAPPY WAS WORRIED
The Rogers-E Evans Warbling COM
bination was an immediate hit. ES-
pecially for Pappy Evans back in
Fort Worth, Tex. Pappy was wor-
ried when his little girl went to
Hollywood His last words to her
when she boarded the train, were
I hope you don't have TO kiss
those birds out there"
AS Roy Rogers feminine co-star,
however, Dale never gets kissed. It's
against the code of the celluloid
west. KiSSin, to juvenile audiences,
is sissy stuff.
But Pappy," Dale said, has
never stopped worrying
In the picture In Old Oklaho-
ma" Dale played a western dance
hall queen, revealing a healthy eX-
panse of silk-coated leg. "Pappy

Until a few years ago, Dale Evans
was stenographer in Fort Worth
life insurance office. That was her
first job after leaving school and
Uvalde.
A BOOST FROM THE BOSS
One cay she was singing in the
office Her boss came in but in
stead of firing her on the spot he
gave her singing job on the COM
pany's local radio program. She
was a big hit. The next step took
her to the Chez Paree in Chicago
where an agent heard her and ar
ranged a screen test and contract
with goth Century-FoX. She never
saw a film camera, though, until
FOX dropped her option ana she
went to work singing on the Ecgar
Bergen radio show.
Dale has been back to Fort Worth
only once since then. And that
trip she will never forget.
The people she had known there
welcomed her back with a party
at the Adolphs Hotel. An ice show
was playing in the hotels supper
room at the time and the regular
dance floor was frozen over

the meeting and what bearing it

project.
The President responded that the
project was in the "iffy" stage.
He added he didn't know if

simply the development of oil
sources

there had been a change, but that
conversations with the British still
were In progress.
Two questions are to be consid-

should be started at once, and who
should build it and how.
