action is taken. More and more, they
feel that sponsors of the legislation,
including the Army and Navy, have
not made out a convincing case for
compulsory service.
Labor Waste Inquiry Voted
Latest move to obtain additional
facts on the manpower situation is
the decision of the. Senate committee
to make an inquiry of how the War
and Navy Departments are utilizing
their manpower. The committee hear
ings are to be expanded to include
such an investigation, Chairman FL
bert d. Thomas said.
Committee skepticism of "brass
hat" arguments in favor of a labor
draft have been increased by reports
of labor surpluses at various places
and the report of the Mead War In
vestigating Committee that it had
found excess manpower, wasted
labor, boarded labor and enforced
loahng" at the Norfolk, Va, Navy
Yard.
Senator James M. Mead, head of
the investigating committee, believes
that surveys to determine how war
plants utilize their manpower should
be required in any'manpower bill that
is passed.
Mead said the bill as passed by the
House would "fail Of its objective"
because it would not stop labor vast
ing in plants that are overmanned.
Opposition Increasing
Meanwhile, comments of individual
Senators continued to Indicate that
the May Bailey bill, which passed the
House Feb. 1, will be rewritten in the
Senate to conform more closely to the
job control system already being OPP
Grated by the War Manpower Com
mission and the War Food Admins
tration.

HYPOTHYROlDISM, or a lack
Of thyroid secretion from the gland
in the neck, is a well-known and
rather common disorder. Never
theless, treatment of this condition
is often delayed until complica-
tons, such as heart damage, occur.
Doctor Jacob J. kohlhas of
Philadelphia suggests that pa
tients with hypothyroidism are
less sensitive to pain and bodily
discomfort than are normal per-
sons. This happens because their
mental reactions I slow. The pa
tent also gets used to certain
changes that go on IN the skin as
we'll as to loss of hair, constipation
and slecpiness. Other symptoms
which may occur are changes IN
the voice, poor appetite II ulcers
or sores on the tongue.
The principal symptoms of this
condition are putliness of the face
and eyclids, swelling of the tongue
and voicc-boX or larynX which pro-
duces a hoarse, slow speech. The
skin is rough and dry. The hair
falls out all over the body. There
are sluggishness Of the intestlnes
and poor memory.
If these symptoms appear, a
basal metahollsm test should be
made to determine the rate at
which the body activities are gong
on. This test is made by having the
patient breathe INTO i small tank
and measuring the amount of
oXygen he uses up IN a given
period of time. In the patient with
hypothyroldlsm, the basal meta
bolism rate is below normal.
Another test for hypothyroidism
is 10 determine the amount Of a
fatty substance known as choles-
tcrol in the blood. In hypothyroid-
ism the amount of blood choles-
terol is increased. However, there
are other conditions, such as dia-
betes, blocking of the bile passages
and a high fat diet, which may
cause a rise in the blood choles-
terol.
If with these tests, and a study
of the symptoms, it is stlll uncer-
.ain as to whether or not the pa
,ieut has hypothyroidism, d test

Of 3-No TrumDs car be of devas-
tating effect Among the high
ranking players who employ it.,
the convention usually applies

the unusual asset of a tenace-type

establish diamonds at once and
score a sure-thIng game With the
double, however, compelling West
to lead the dummy's spade suit,
game became impossible for
South.
West obediently opened his
highest card of the dummy's spade
suit, enabling East to run off four
tricks there in a trice. He returned
a heart, but really it made no diff
ference what he did, The declarer
had no chance to take nine tricks
without getting a couple in dia"
monds. The moment he tackled
that suit, East scored his X for
the setting trick.
Notice that if West led any
thing except a spade, South would
have made his contract beyond
peradventure Of a doubt. East
could have scored no more than
three tricks in the spade suit un-
less West led it, and the latter
could never get the lead except to
the opening trick.

pass the Andersen amendment,
Representative Monroney, Demo-
crat, of Oklahoma said it would en-
able the Secretary of Agriculture
to nullify an executive order of the
President. Mr.. Andersen told re-
porters last night that the present
President has not yet issued any
executive orders dealing with this
subject.
Representative Kitchener, Repub-
lican, of Michigan. joined in the
debate to declare, the House knows
Clinton Anderson the newly ap-
pointed Secretary of Agricultural
and is willing to place the respon-
sibility on him 80
Anderson Didn't Vote.
Mr.. Monroney made the point
that If the amendment becomes law
Mr.. Anderson will have little time
for anything hlt signing his name
to orders.
Mr.. Anderson did not vote on the
amendment which would make him
the supervisor of all food policies.
Earlier In the day, however, he had
expressed his approval of one of the
other amendments-the one de-
signed to increase meat production
by opening up the smaller slaughter
houses.
The slaughter -house amendment
was offered by Representative Pat

general support. In directing the
Secretary not to impose production

ule heretofore issued with respect
to food shall be valid or binding
unless approved in writing by the
Secretary Of Agriculture within 90
days.
This would give Mr.. Anderson the
discretion to approve the existing
OPA set-up, or withhold his written
Endorsement Of present policies. Any
changes to be inaugurated likewise
would go to him for approval.
Sponsor Cites Reasons.
Mr.. Andersen told reporters last
night his amendment spells out in
clearer language = power Congress
intended to give the Agriculture
secretary in the original Price Con-
troll Act, and that 1t will require
one man to make decisions now
scattered among many agencies, at
fecting food. He said he offered 1t
on the assumption that the newly
appointed secretary will be work
ing in harmony with President Tru-
man in carrying out the amend
ment.
Forty-eight Democrats joined
with l62 Republicans and one minor
party member in putting over the
food-czar amendment. Against 1t
were 154 Democrats and one Ameri-
can-LAborite.
Appealing to the House not to

to be operating a clean plant, the
amendment gave him permission to
require the slaughterer to make q
percentage of his meat output avail
able to the armed services. 1t also
empowered him to provide for local
inspection of slaughter houses. and
to authorize the shipment in inter-
state commerce of meat so pro-
duced.
The fight for broader court re-
view of OPA regulations by the in
junction process was led by Repre-
sentative Dirksen, Republican, of
Illinois. A similar amendment was
advocated in prior years, but failed
OF final passage.
The House rejected numerous
other attempts to amend the bill.
including the following proposals:
BY Representative Case. Repub-
lican. of South Dakota, to authorize
the Secretary of Agriculture to ar
range with the armed forces to
make reserve military food stocks
available for civilian purchase, but
only when he could give assurance
that such stocks would be replaced
before needed.

lican, Of Massachusetts,, to provide
that no disabled war veterans be
required to give ration points in
connection with the purchase Of
| food.
By Representative Voorhis, Demo-
crat. of California, to provide for
lifting price ceilings when the sup
ply Of a commodity equals the de.
mand, unless there Is evidence OF
monopolistic control.
BY Representative Hartley OF New
Jersey, to provide that no merchant
should be required to limit his sales
by any weighted average price nmi-
tation as between articles Of clothing
Of different values.
The amendment requiring cattle
sheep and hogs to be considered
separately In fixing professor price
ceilings, for which both branches of
Congress are now on record, was
sponsored in the House by Repre-
sentative Bates, Republican, of

Miss Margaret Vogel of Baltimore
in 1890. His son, Thomas A. Edison
Lake, helped his father with sub
marines for time, but was more
interested in designing airplanes
and high speed motors for boats.
Mr. Lake left school when he was
20 and worked for eight years in a
foundry. His first submarine, a
crude coffin shaped affair. was
launched in 1894. 1t proved little
more than that his ideas were prac-
teal.

Later, he built the Argonaut, a
cylindrical craft, SO feet long, 9 feet
in diameter. weighing 81 tons and
driven by 30-horsepower engine.
The designer and crew of five
travelled more than 1000 miles in
this craft during the testing process
He next built the Protector which he
launched in 1902 at Bridgeport, fol-
lowed by the Simon Lake x, launch
ed at Newport News, Va. When he
decided his submarines were prac-
tical, he formed company and
began selling the craft abroad until
war broke out in 1914
Mr.. Lake had lost most of the
fortune he had accumulated during
his earlier career as a submarine
builder, but his confidence in the
usefulness of the craft never di-
minished.
AS touch of poetic justice, Jules
Verne, the imaginative Frenchmar
whose fantasies had started Mr.
Lake thinking about submarines

The Army yesterday announced
a so per cent overall reduction in
the Nations artillery shell produc-
ton program.
Affecting plants in 20 States, the
cutbacks will take place gradually
through September. They will re-
lease approximately $4,000 workers
in A plants, the Army estimated,
but said that normal attrition and
turnover would materially reduce
this figure"
Reductions ordered affect manu-
facture of all high-explosive artil-
lery shells from the 81 nm. to the
240 NM, as well as the 80 nm.
armor- piercing and the rs nm. and
155 nm. chemical shells. ... D.

VINO officials were instructed to
take immediate steps to direct re-

Simon Lake, Builder of First
Successful Sub, Dies at 70
Inventor Always Sow
Endorsed Craft as
Peace Instrument
~ the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BRIDGEPORT, Conn, June %.
Simon Lake, father of the
modern submarine, died tonight
in st. Vincent's Hospital here
after a brief illness. He was Is.
Simon Lakes inspiration for de-
veloping the modern submarine
came directly from Jules Verne's
Twenty Thousand Leagues Under
the Sea-" which Mr.. Lake read
avidly when he was a boy of 10.
He kept thinking about submarines,
and doing something about them.
almost to the end of his life.
He never lost faith in the under
water craft as instruments of peace.
eff submarines had been used
commercially, there would have
been no need for war;" he said two
years ago. why do nations go to
war? To get oil and foodstuffs.
Well, there is 10 times more oil
and foodstuffs under the sea than
ever was on land. and the equip
ment is available to obtain it"
Built First Successful Sub.
The idea of the submarine was
not new when Mr.. Lake became
obsessed with 1t. There were crude
types of submarines as far back as
the Revolutionary War and again
during the Civil War, but it was Mr.
Lake who built the first such craft
to operate successfully in the open
sea.
Mr.. Lake often complained that
he and other inventors had to
struggle against the stagnation of
'monopolists," who stif1ed the pro-
posals of inventors during wartime.
His first large orders for submarines
came, he said, from Russia, Ger
many, Austria and Italy. He once
said he spent 20 years and 81 ,O00,-
900 before he could get the United
States interested in the under-sea
boat.
During this war, Mr.. Lake said
he tried without success to interest
the Government in huge submarines
that could carry cargoes of tanks
and helicopters, or amphibious
cannon equipped submarines that
could be discharged from large,
craft on the ocean bottom and pro.
eeed to land.
Tried to Raise Lusitania.
Mr.. Lake once tried to salvage
the Lusitania, sunk off the Irish
coast during the last war. His most
ambitious salvage operation was the
attempt to find $4,800,000 in gold
reported to have been sunk with the
British frigate Hussar in the East
River at New York in 1880. He
began work on this project in 1884
and for three years, while the worl6
waited. he searched for the fortune
on the river bottom. All he evel
found were few modern coins
dragged from the muddy bottom.
Mr.. Lake was born In Pleasant.
