charged that the Office of Price

This would give manufacturers

The Democratic leader worked
for a passage vote under the COM
pulsion of a threat by Senator
(R.-Wis.) to call before the
Senate proposals to reject Presi-
dent Truman's government reor-
g~anization orders.
These orders will become effec-
tive at midnight July 10 if both
houses do not disapprove. The
House passed resolutions which
would kill the orders. The Senate
Judiciary committee voted. in eff
feet, to sustain the orders. But TN
der the law the House resolutions
to kill the reorganization went to
the Senate calendar with privileged
status under which any Senator
could call them up.
Wiley moved to bring them up
Thursday, an action which would
lay the OPA bill aside. When Bark
ley protested this was playing into
the hands of those who want de-

til Friday, adding that he won't
be turned aside then.
This threat obviously pleased
Senator O'Daniel O.-Tex.), who
walked over to confer briefly with
Wiley. O'Daniel told reporters he
expected to "say quite a few
words before any final passage
vote. Since he talked on the sub
ject for more than eight solid hours
