ment by the end of this week.
While the conferees may restore
some degree of control over essential
commodities that were decontrolled
by the Senate, including meat. dairy

the final draft of the bill virtually
is certain to represent a drastic

Although some OPA supporters
believe Mr.. Truman should veto the
bill in the hope of getting a short
extension of the present law. there
are others on Capitol Hill who
doubt that Congress would pass a
straight extension if the pending
bill is vetoed. In that event veto
would mean no control after June

Managers Marking Time.
House managers have been mark
ing time on the emergency strike
bill since the President vetoed the
long-range Case labor disputes bill,
but they probably will decide soon
how to proceed with it. There are
three courses of action open to
House leaders when they take the
bill to the Rules Committee: Ask
that it be sent to conference; move
to concur in Senate changes, one
of which eliminates the power to
draft workers who strike after the
Government takes over an essential
industry; or, place the Senate
amendments before the House for
disposition. There has been specu-
lation that. If the latter course is
followed, the House might revive
the Case bill and try to send it back
to the White House as part of the
emergency measure.
Although leaders have not made
detailed plans for adjournment, there
is considerable sentiment for going
