200 armed sheriff's deputies herded
$50 to 400 unresisting pickets into

submitted peaceably on orders of
their leader, Herbert Sorrell, head
of the AFL Conference of Studio

decorators.

The new situation developed
when Is Sheriff's deputies marched
down the street in front of Warmers
main gate to the jeers of the
pickets.
On a parking lot nearby, 80 plain
clothes deputies, including thres
women, waited quietly. Three of
the plain clothes men were armed
with machine guns, and tear gas
bombs were issued to them.
We will fill every Jail in this
damned country if that's what they
want" blared the voice of a strike
leader from a sound truck.
We are enforcing the State law
that requires free entrance into a
building" Inspector John Henry of
the sheriff's department explained to
reporters.
Pickets Told to Return.
Promise that the mass picketing
would be resumed was given by
Mr.. Sorrell before the arrests
started.

told the pickets. But as soon as

ferred to the Organic Act and the Senate Journal and decreed that the 24th hour of the 60th day of the Session had expired at l:30 o'clock that afternoon. The Senators might sit there for 60 years if they wished but would have no authority to act further, he gave his opinion.
 Senator Lyng moved that notice be given the House that the Senate was ready to adjourn. Again the mo- tion failed.
 Senator Gordon followed up the Attorney Generals statement by asking how any business could be conducted anymore - even adjourn ment. The General Appropriations bill was then passed "out of order" he concluded. Again applause rang from the galleries and brought an outburst from Senator Leo w. Rogge. This is no show house"
 Where's Clock?
 Senator Gordon then asked MT Roden if action taken by previous Legislatures after the 60th day had ever been disputed. MT. Roden re- piled that he knew of none that had ever been questioned. Senator Gordon asked the President to rule as to whether the Senate could act any longer. That request brought another outcry from Senator Rogge: Where is your clock?" he demanded, pointing to the hooded timepiece on the Senate chamber wall. Senator Joe Green put in that the Journal would show that they were still on the 60th dev.
 Senator Whaley moved directly for adjournment, sine die. The motion lost, 2 to T, 3 absent. It was sug- gested that a recess be taken till the next morning. Senator Gordon sug- gested a. m., then agreed to a 5 o'clock, 8. m. meeting as suggested by Senator Lyng. President Coffey pointed out that the pay of the help had stopped, which brought a rejoinder from Senator Gordon that he would be willing to help pay the employees out of his pocket.
 Senator Lyng moved for adjourn ment to 8 O'clock a. m. yesterday. The motion was defeated by the same ' to ' vote. Senator Rogge immediately followed with a motion for adjournment, sine die. Again the Senators present split 2 to 2, the yea" votes being cast by Senators Collins, Green, Rogge, Scott, Shat tuck, Whaley and Coffey.
 That was plenty for President Coffey. Gentlemen, I'll see you at a. m.," he announced, took up his hat and strode from the cham Der amid waves of applause. The Senate Journal was ordered to show recess until o'clock this morn- ing.

 The vote was overwhelmingly for adjournment. Representatives had al- ready spent half day waiting for Senate action. sleeping in chairs, restlessly pacing the corridors.

Remarks applied by Senator Gordon brought several Senators to their feet and the ensuing clamor required a heavy gavel" to suppress.
 Senator Collins, in his reply tc why the labor measures had been suppressed, disclosed additional evil dence that the closing hours rebel- lion of Senate conservative" had been brought about by attempts from outside to control the actions of the Senate. Queried Collins: If these labor measures were so impor- tant, why was House Bill 25 jump ed ahead of everything to force the passage of Sl,0o0 for the Governors entertainment fund deficiency? There could have been lots of bills passed" he continued, If the Sen ate had been allowed to work on its calendar in the regular order"
