Senate Rejects Attempt To

WASHINGTON, May, 9.-W.H-
The So, $50, 600, 900 British loan sur
vived another major congressional
test Thursday when the senate re-
jected an attempt to toss the
measure to the house for prior

Encouraged administration lead

The rejected parliamentary
maneuver challenged the constitu'

The point was raised by Sen. Ed

gued that the loan bill was a

house.
Senate Democratic leader A1ber

ASKS
SAFE CONDITIONS
Lieut. Governor Addresses
State Wide Industrial
Conference

RALEIGH, May. o. @ Nov
is the time to strike for safe work
ing conditions in North Carolina
1t. Governor L. Y. Ballentine told
delegates to a statewide industrial
safety conference here Thursday.
The 1t. Governor gave the open
ing address to a group of about SO
safety men from North Carolina
industries and from the State La
Dor department. The meeting was
called by Forrest H. Shuford, State
Labor commissioner, to organize a
program for promotion Of safety
throughout the state.
Ballentine said that people are
becoming "safety-minded,'" but not
enough so, as highly casualty fig:
ures indicate. "The importance Of
safety becomes even greater as
our living becomes more congested
and mechanical" he said. "Devel.
opment of sound bodies through
stress on recreation and physical
education will be futile unless they
are protected in our industries
and on u highways"
Responsibility for prevention of
accidents lies with individuals =
employers and employees alike. he
said, adding that the State Depart
ment of Labor is doing "a most
excellent job and that the safety
program being developed has the
full support and endorsement of
Governor Cherry and himself.

louis-Conn Seat Sale
Draws Buying Horde

NEW YORK, May 1O.-Sale of
tickets to the Louis-Con heavy
weight title bout June 10 has opened
and through most of yesterday a
double line of fight fans eagerly
snapped up the pasteboards at
prices ranging from $40 to $10O.
Comparatively few buyers asked
for 500 ringside tickets. However,
thousands of mail orders have been
received for the most expensive
brand
Most enthusiastic prediction heard
was that gate of s4,O00,000 might
be realized for the first heavy
weight fight since before the war.
1t was disclosed that ringside seats
would rise, tier upon tier, away
from the ring at Yankee Stadium
until they reached point where
IA steps would be required to climb
to the back row. AS a result of
this. several thousand seats in the
lower stand will be unsold.
