Hartford May 17-The Water bdry Validating Act seemed assured of final passage in; the House today and at press time House Republican members were in caucus and word received from that meeting detin- itely assured Waterbury legislators in the Senate that the Act would receive favorable passage sometime this afternoon.
 The House gave every indication of trying to wind up affairs today. By this procedure they will deposit in the laps of the Senate final deci- sion on all bills. Perhaps the one obstacle to the final decision of the General Assembly today will be the Wage Salary Increase Bill for state employees. Democrats in the Sem ate may split on this measure but it is believed if a sufficient vote in the Senate is forthcoming it will carry the original House Republican sponsored bill.

 President Truman, in stinging rebuke to Congress, late yesterday stepped up the maximum draft age from 26 to g in an effort to save the near wreckage" of the Sel- eetive Service system and make up for the loss of the teen-agers.
 Both Democratic and Repub-

 MT. Truman told a news confer ence that he had signed the em- ergency draft extension bill reluc- tantly and only because conditions would be worse without it." He pointed out that the act kept intact draft machinery and preserved the veterans unemployment rights.
