Tube Strikers Say
Pickets Will Tie Up
New York Ferries
By the k.seeioted Pre.t

NEW YORK, June 3.-Striking
engineers and trainmen peacefully
picketed the Pennsylvania Rail-
roads ferry terminals in both New
York and New Jersey today as well
as property of the Hudson g. Man.
haitian Railroad-shut down four
days ago by wage dispute.
The Pennsylvania, which aug
mented its service between New
York and New Jersey when l15,000
H. & M. commuters were stranded
by the walkout, was accused of
strike-breaking" tactics by the
union.
The pickets were under instruc-
tions not to interfere with commut-
ers-onN to enlist their sympathy
by informing them of the dispute.
-Four men, carrying placards,
started marching at the Pennsyl-
vania Terminal in Jersey City dur
ing the morning rush hours.
| Picketing of the terminals, pickets
said, might halt operations.
May Respect Picket Lines.
The crews of the ferries-mem-
bers of the Masters, Mates and Pi-
lots Union, all AFL-were quoted as
saying they would not cross picket
lines to get to work.
The ferry crews started work to-
day before the picket line was es-
tablished at am, and many of
them boarded the ferries in New
York, the union said.
Milling .throngs of commuters, in
tent on reaching work in New York,
glanced at the quartet of pickets
who marched in relays, then raced
for the crowded ferries.
| Various ferries from Jersey City
are a principal alternate to the H.
g. M. tube trains, which operate
between Newark, N. j.; Jersey City,
Hoboken and New York Other al
ternateS are the Holland and Lin
coin tunnels for automotive traf-
flee and the Pennsylvania Railroad.
Pennsy Runs Extra Trains.
Most of the commuters who reg
ularly use the H. & M. today reached
the ferry slips on extra trains oper-
ated to Jersey City by the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad or on buses which
extended their lines during the
strike.
! Picketing also continued today at
the Pennsylvania Railroad Station
in Newark.
The striking unions, units of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi-
neers and the Brotherhood of Rail-
road Trainmen, contend that the
Hudson & Manhattan company
should grant the 1871 hour
wage increase recommended by
President Truman and put into ef-
feet on all the major rail lines.
The company maintains it cannot
meet the added cost because it car
ries no freight and cannot seek a
freight-rate increase.
The H. & M. was taken over by
the Government during the recent
national railroad strike and was re-
turned to private ownership only
four days before the present strike
was called.

distribution, the department stated
Determination of eligibility for
Government-owned wheat will de-
pend upon the relative shortage OF
consumer flour supplies in specific
areas served by the mill seeking a
loan, and upon the amount OF
wheat available to the mill latter
it has exhausted all possibilities
of obtaining additional supplies
through other than Government
channels the department said.
The department also announced
it was prepared to supply wheat
to mills in position to expedite
milling of flour for export.
Samuel H. Rogers, vice president
of Wilkins Rogers Milling Co. here
reported that flour supplies ir
Washington were very short" but
that his concern hoped to help re.
lieve the situation somewhat by its
June output.
This mill would not be eligible

as it has managed to buy enough
wheat to grind up to the quota al
lowed by the Government.

Flood Waters Recede
In Pennsylvania After
Killing ; Persons
BY the Associoted Press

PHILADELPHIA, June 3.-Flood
waters, fed by 20 hours of contin-
uous rains, receded today after
rampaging wildly over many por-
tions of Pennsylvania - flooding
homes and stores, disrupting trans
portation, communications and in
dustrial activity and killing at least
three persons.
The disastrous floods-second In
Pennsylvania within week -
claimed the lives of an 11-year-old
Cub Scout and an unidentified man
IN the Philadelphia area. A 9-year-
old girl was drowned in Western
Pennsylvania.
The rain-swollen Schuylkill River
and its tributary streams boiled over
as the Weather Bureau recorded the
second heaviest June rainfall in its
history. Only in 1896 was 1t heavier.
No Estimate of Damage.
Flood waters inundated Mana
yunk, a section of Northwest Phila-
delphia, covered parts of Fairmount
Park-second largest city park in
the Nation-and halted Reading Co.
and Baltimore & Ohio trains.
There was no official estimate of
damage.
The Valley of Bungalows" bor-
dering Perkiomen Greek in nearby
Collegeville. was hardest hit by the
waves of rushing water.
Robert Montgomery, II, was swept
to his death when a rescue rowboat
capsized. He was one of 80 Cub
Scouts marooned on little island
in the muddy Perkiomen. The 9TH
ers were rescued by the quick
thinking of two Collegeville firemen
who improvised an overhead rope"
tied to tree on the island and a
telephone pole on the mainland,
100 yards away.
Rescue Work Praised.
Paul Snafer, manager of the Phil
adelphia Red Cross chapter, said
only the noble job the College,
vile flremen did saved the lives of
those other 80 kids" The Scouts
had been on an overnight camping
trip.
The Susquehanna River in North
ern New York and Central Eastern
Pennsylvania and the Allegheny
River in Western Pennsylvania rose
slightly as the all-day downpour
whipped the two-State area, but
reports indicated there would he no
repetition of the havoc that took
IA lives and caused more than
100000 damage last week.
Low-lying sections of Uniontown,
Pa, were awash when Redstone
Creek and Coal Lick Run over
flowed their banks. Several hun
dred persons fled their homes and
damage was estimated at thousands
of dollars.

on Capitol Hill have said they ex-
pect the President to veto the mea-
sure. The author, Representative
Case, Republican, of South Dakota
commented, however, that ut is in
conceivable to me" that the Chief
Executive would reject it.
Further Action Opposed.
Supporters of the Case bill are
planning to oppose further action
on the Presidents emergency legis-
lation until he acts on the former.
Their strategy is to prevent. il
possible, a situation which would
permit Mr.. Truman to veto the more
far-reaching Case bill while signing
his own temporary measure.
Republicans say privately that in
the event of a. veto they may permit
it to stand simply by failing to show
up for the vote on whether to over
ride.
1--WE now are in the position OF
having voted to put permanent
strike legislation on the books" one
COP leader told a reporter. IF the
President vetoes it, the response
bility will be his. We can go before
the country and say we did what we
could to cope with the strikes, but
the President blocked us with a
veto"
CIO President Murray said in his
letter to the President that the Case
bill would encourage and increase
labor disputes instead of curbine
them" 3
Mr.. Murray made public the 5000
word letter he sent to the President
setting forth in detail the argument
that the Case bill Is part of a con-
tinuous campaign that he said has
been going on for 10 years "to re-
press labor and destroy its rights"
The bill would-among othe,
things-set up5a Federal mediation
board, require a 60-dayr cooling -of1
period in disputes which the board
recognized as serious, and punish
any worker who strikes during that
period by removing his right to
return to his job. .rs
