WASHINGTON, July 25 - Presi- dent Trumans expected signature was the last step needed to re- vive OPA today.
 Except for rents, many of the agency's wartime powers will be curbed or removed.
 But on Capitol Hill, virtually no one expressed any real doubt that the President will sign the calender bill which the Senate passed a few minutes after midnight 53 to 26, and sent to the White House.
 The House previously had ap- proved the measure, 210 to 142.
 When signed by MT. Truman, the bill automatically will re-estab- : fish rent and many of the price ceilings which lapsed July l. OPA's plans are to follow quickly with number of temporary adjustments on prices, pending calculation of new and higher ceilings required under the measure.
 The bill gives OPA life through next June, but it prohibits restor- ation of price controls at least until August 20 on such major market basket items as meat and dairy products, as well as on grains, petroleum and tobacco.
 During the final long and some times bitter debate, Senators Wher- ry R.-Neb.) and O'Daniel GD.- TexD joined with others in de- manding rejection of the compro- mise bill approved by a House. Senate conference committee.

 The radioaelvity was so great that two tugs which went to the rescue of the Saratoga, under or ders from Task Force Commander Vice Adm. w. H. P. Blandy to try to beach her, had to turn back and let the gallant old lady die alone.

Oldest Aircraft Carrier Sunk

Oldest Aircraft Carrier Sunk
 Aboard USS Mt. Mckinley, July 25-At least seven times the Jap anese claimed they had sunk the 33.o00-ton Saratoga, oldest aircraft carrier in the U. s. Navy.
 Ironically, she went down in a former Japanese -owned lagoon.
 On two occasions the enemy's claims were almost right. A tor pedo crippled her once. Kamikaze (suicide) planes banged her up on another occasion.
 The Saratoga started out as a battle cruiser but was converted to a carrier during construction to meet terms of the Washington Naval Treaty in the early 1920s.

On top of that, there has been
very noticeable improvement in
the supply of both manufactured

Those who forecast that the
virtual elimination of price con-
troll and a return to the free
market would result in immediate
and disastrous initiation, were as
badly fooled as will be those who
think that prices will return to

What actually happened was
that some prices rose in the first

turned downward. The idea that
the public would pay any price
for anything was proven baseless.
As Time put it, more and more
sales clerks heard two long for

In the rioting 10000 stormed

HAITI RULED BY SIX
MAN JUNTA since
0USTIhG OF LE5COT

PORT AU PRINCE, Jan. 16
(ANP). = A six-man junta took
over the reigns of government here
for Haiti and President Ellie Lescot,
who is now in the United States,
after fleeing the country.
The military junta, made up of
Col. Frank Lavaud, Maj. Antoine
Levelt and Maj. Paul E. Magloire,
took over after four persons were
killed in a day of disorders, during
which mobs sacked and fired homes,
stores and factories of Lescot sup
porters while light tanks and arm
ored scout cars patrolled the city
in an attempt to restore order. The
four were killed when a crowd
broke into jewelry store, smashed
showcases and carried off loot.
When Lescot failed to make a
promised broadcast last Friday,
violence flared anew the next day.
Troops wavered, then threw their
support with the people, who swept
unchecked through the streets, yell
ing ''he is gone"
What will be his punishment is
also speculation, but reports indi-
cate he will be exiled.
A series of political develop
ments, based upon the unpopularity
of his reelection to a seven-year
term by the national assembly in
1914, might be responsible for the
overthrow of the Lescot admins
tration.
The underground oust Lescot
movement gained momentum a

students stormed the Ministry Of

SPECIAL CONGRESS ELECTION

ATLANTA, Jan. II (ANP). =
Several hundred Atlantans were re-

the registration lists as result of
the interest heightened by the COM
ing vote for a successor to Robert
Ramspeck as congressman from the
fifth district comprising Fulton,
DeKalb, and Rockdale counties. The
election comes off Feb. II.
The Atlanta Branch NAACP ap-
pointed special committee to con-
tact pastors of all churches, re-
questing that they call this import
ant matter to the attention of their
respective congregations in Sunday
services. Speakers were assigned to
make brief remarks.
Registration also was spurred by
the fact that special bond election
is in the offing this year.
