CONGRESS-:
Pay adjustment

Government employees were in
line for a pay increase as result
of congressional action but an ad-
ministration measure to raise the
minimum wage to so cents an hour
appeared doomed because Of the
farm blocs insistence that the same
bill hike the parity formula over
President Truman's protest.
The senate and house strove to
get together on a uniform pay in
crease for U. S. employees follow
ing their approval Of conflicting
raises. While the senate had ok. d
an II per cent boost. the house
voted $500 year advance. Since
the house also decided to limit de-
partment appropriations in the 1947
fiscal year to those of 1916, how
ever, the higher pay would cover
fewer employees and thus cut the
federal payroll by 1000. 900.
In pushing for an upward revision
of the parity formula as an amend
ment to the 60-cent-an-hour mini
mum wage bill over President Tru-
mans veto threat, the farm bloc
sought to protect farmers returns
in period Of rising costs. Trum.
peting administration disapproval,
Secretary Of Agriculture Anderson
declared revision Of the parity for
mula to include farm wages would
result in 80 per cent boost in
farm prices and spark an imitation

RAIL PAY:
Balk at Findings

In protesting the 16-cent-an-hour
raise awarded by q labor-manage-
ment arbitration board, railroad un-
ion officials declared that the boost
granted failed to meet higher living
costs and adjust differences in pay
between railroad workers and en-
ployees in other industries.
Declaring railroad workers were
entitled to a 46-cent-an-hour in
crease, B. M. Jewell, representing
IS incorporating unions. and E. E.
Milliman. president Of the Brother
hood Of Maintenance Of Way En-
ployees, asserted that the minimum
award should have included III
cents an hour for higher living costs
plus the general industry-wide 1871
cent-an-hour postwar advance.
Meanwhile. railroad officials also
complained against the arbitration
boards wage decisions. estimated
to add up to $500 per year for
1,220, 900 members Of three operat-
ing and IS incorporating unions and
cost the carriers 1884. 900, 900 an
nually.
Echoing the carriers warnings
that increased wages would require
rate boosts, President Fred G. Cur
ley Of the Santa Fe announced that
the 16-cent-an-hour award was too
large and his road would immedi-
ately appeal for higher freight tar
ifs. Stating that the wage increases
would add $4,000. 900 yearly to
Santa Fe operating costs. Gurley
said the boost coupled with higher
material. supply and fuel costs
against reduced income made the
step necessary.
Because both the railroads and
unions had agreed to accept the

UNO:
Weather Storm

Fraught with danger to the
United Nations Organization and
world peace. the tense RussoIran-
ian dispute melted under the prom
Use of diplomatic compromise, with
Moscow saving face and Tehran its
sovereignty.
Secretary Of State James Byrnes,
chief U. S. delegate to the UNO Sc
curitv council, started the happy
train of events, suggesting that both
countries state their position in the
dispute over Russian failure to with
draw from Iran before UNO consid-
cred action in the case.
Russia had walked out of the Sc
curity council after its decision to
consider the question and Byrnes'
proposal offered an excellent oppor-
tunity for the Reds to walk back
in without losing prestige. Making
the most of the chance, the Rus
SLAMS wrote UNO that they were
pulling out of Iran without imposing
any conditions for their retirement
and their troops should be gone by
May 6.
Taking his cue. Trans representa-
tive then told the security council
that if definite assurances could be
obtained that the Russians would ap-
ply no pressure for oil concessions
or Red-backed provincial govern
ments as a condition for withdraw
al, Iran would consider the matter
closed.
And upon that happy note, UNO
appeared to have overcome its first
great hurdle.

Illegal Spending Of Public Funds

WASHINGTON, July 29, -(P- Comptroller General Lindsay C. Warren told Senate investigators that "it has looked as if everybody and his brother were out to get the government during the lush war years"
 Warren made this statement to the Senate War Investigating Committee. At the same time he appealed for greater powers for the General Accounting Office as ..the last bulwark for. the. pro- lection of taxpayers of this coun- try against unbridled and illegal expenditures of public funds"
 Some high officials of govern ment, he said, accepted entertain ment, including cocktail parties, hotel bills and even travel from contractors while at the same time drawing travel expense and per diem (daily allowance) from the government"
 This practice was "the rule rath- CT than the exception"

 The Departments announce ment reiterated the hope that Russia and France likewise will accept.
 Despite this hope, the expecta- ton among diplomats here is that the United States and Britain at once will work out details for uni flying their zones economically, that France probably will. join promptly and that Russia will re- fuse to cooperate.
 The announcement which will mark a step in the hardening of the great power split in Germany came as Secretary of State Byrnes met with Prime Minister Atlee and Foreign Ministers Molotov and Bidault in the first day of the Paris Peace Conference, the State Department said.

WASHINGTON, July 29, -LP)- The Senate Banking Committee today unanimously approved Pres ident Truman's three nominees for the new Price Decontrol Board.

Mead, Dayton, Ohio, paper company executive, as members.
 They will be paid at the rate of Sl2,000 a year.
 The boards first assignment is to decide by August 20, whether meats, dairy products, grains, cot ton seed, Soybeans and hundreds of products made from them : should be placed back under price controls at that time. If it makes no decision, ceilings automatic ally will be restored

NRLB Survey
 Salmon Packers Union Vote Taken

. WASHINGTON, July 29, -|P)- The National Labor Relations Board is engaged in a far-flung fishing expedition-taking a col lective bargaining vote among the Alaska salmon canners.
 Like the workers who follow the salmon, prepare him for the &able and clap a red can around him, an NLRB staff of six agents is visiting each big cannery as the salmon run hits its peak.
 Clad in long-handled underwear and layers of sweaters, the boards aides, some accustomed to Wash ington's sultry summers, are hop ping around by pontoon plane to count the ballots of approxim- ately 1900 workers eligible to $ote.
 The canners are employed by members of the Alaska Salmon Industry Inc, an association, and four independent operators.
 The balloting at fifty widely scattered cannerieS in the south eastern district of Alaska, from sYakutat to Hidden Inlet, will be completed some time next month.
 Voting at each cannery is timed to coincide with peak payrol!s so the maximum number of work CTS will cast ballots. Thus, starting out of Juneau early in July and working down to Ket- chikan, the agents movements are dictated by the natural habits of the salmon and the weather. Elections don't start at any can nery until it has been in opera . tion five days.
 The balloting is being managed by Russell R. Miller, the boards ace vote counter who arranged and supervised the nationwide coal strike vote among more than A 300, ,000 bituminous coal diggers in. 1945. The huge job was done . in 9 hours.
 Since the board was established II years ago it has conducted a. bout 30,000 elections under the Wagner Labor Relations Act. Few however, have presented the tus- sle with nature and weather that the current salmon industry vote is offering.
 Only one other ballot was com parable. That was among the same workers last year. It prov ed to be inconclusive, and the current count is, in effect, run off. None of the labor organ,z-
