ish Discussion OF
Welcome

LONDON, June 21-P-The Sum
day Pictorial, which said in its
June Is issue that Sonora Eva
Duarte Peron, wife of Argentina's
president. would not be welcome
in Britain, published a rejoinder
tonight by Lord Strabolgi, laborite
peer, declaring she would be.
Sonora Peron is expected to visit
Britain July Is to 10 after visiting
Italy and other countries on the
continent. A reception committee
has been formed here under the
craftsmanship of Lord Davidson,
chairman of the Hispanic council.
The council reported tonight that
it had issued q memorandum to
its staff saying that 1.-The HiSoanic
oovrcil is an unofficial organlza-
ton and does not pretend to know
\. a. official policy is except when
it is announced" but that it under
stood the government welcomed
Sonora Peron's visit.
Strabolgi's article in the Sunday
Pictorial said:
81 can best describe her as the
South American Eleanor Roosevelt.
She is intensely interested in poll
tics and, in particular, has played
a considerable part already in her
own country in encouraging i'm
provement of hospitals, the open
ing of schools for orphan children,
housing for the poorer sections Of
the population and homes for the
aged. Xxx
How true is it to say the pres
ent government in the Argentina
is Fascist?
Admittedly the country came
into the war very late, but so
did some of our other allies. Ad-
mittedly, also. there was delay in
roofing out Nazi and other Ger
man influences. Certain phases of
the government certainly are die
tatorial, but we must remember
that this is South America, where
D e cy is comparatively
young.
ION the other hand. the election
last year was fairly conducted and
it gave Peron and his government
a large majority. He has shown
himself friendly to the Jews and
has discouraged anti-semitism.
II believe the natural courtesy
and hospitality of the British people
will insure a warm-hearted re-
ception for this talented lady, Who,
I am confident, is only DESTROYS of
strengthening the links between
her country and ours

This was the margin forecast by
q other supporters of the bill, 100.
Taft expressed the belief that
the sharp floor fight had streng-
thened his side, rather than weak
:, ened it, and told newsmen: .
Is "We're all right. The line is

:, The agreement for a vote came
when Senator Morse. (R.-Ore.)
= gave up what he acknowledged
i, rs. a filibuster "to assure unllm-
" tied debate' after holding the
:, floor ten hours nonstop.
It followed an hour of whls'
pered conferences on the loo1
and dickering in the cloakrooms
among Senator Wherry (R.-Neb.)
the COP whip, and a dozen other
leaders of both sides. Wherry said
that his earlier experience IN
Grading mules helped him to
win the agreement.
The House voted yesterday to
override the veto as soon as Mr..
Truman's blistering message had
been read. Similar action by n
Senate thus would make the bill
Law as soon as the officers of
congress signed it.
The bills supporters demonstrate
ed during the night that they can
sleep on cloakroom couches with
the best of them. Each time some
one forced a nose count, they
came out in numbers. The presi-
dents supporters were less evld-
ent as the night wore on with one
attempt after another for a vote
agreement being blocked.
The usual show of the senate
grinding ahead without respite, Its
first marathon of this kind since
1927, brought crowds of si~ght-seers
to the galleries. The bobby-sox,
all-night movie crowd had pro-
vided most of the few spectators
who stayed through until dawn.
While the senate argued, admin
istration and labor leaders were
busy attempting to build pressure

"The result of sustaining the

we cannot manage John l.. Lewis

Senator Flanders (R.-Vt.) an
nounced he will vote to override
the veto although he is "dubious'
about some of the bills provisions.
Flanders said he will introduce
some proposed revisions in the
measure, if it becomes law. He
did not specify Aese.

Of the agency have been warned

for the future.
Veterans Administrator Bradley
imposed the freeze in an order sent
last night to deputy administrators
in the 13 branch area offices.
He declared: with even more
restricted personnel ceilings an
ticipated the services provided in
your branch areas should be mani
festly defensible both from stand
point of efficiency and economy.
"You should consider this prob
lem in the light of the need to
furnish maximum service with pres
ent personnel, bearing in mind the
future possibility of having to do
the job with even fewer personnel" ]"
Medical Personnel Exempted.
Only new personnel who can be
hired, the order said, are medical
personnel and, in isolated cases,
