The Senate mulled this one over
yesterday: Can a Senator lean on
his desk and still be said to hold
the floor?
The question never was settled.
Senator Lodge, Republican, of Con-
necticut, presiding, refused to rule
on the point, which was raised by
Senator Morse, Republican, of Ore
gon during his f1libuster on the
Taft Hartley labor bill.
Senator Morse said that Senator
Brewster, Republican, Of Maine had
objected to his taking "a little more
restful" position and he wanted to
know his rights.
X Il II X
Incidentally, Senator Morse said
st Just don't like filibusters" He
told his colleagues of his own long
talk: This is not f1libuster to
prevent vote. This is a fllibuster
to assure unlimited debate in the
Senate"
Senator Morse once was a pro-
fessor of augmentation. Another
top man in the Senate fllibuster was
Senator Taylor, Democrat, Of Idaho
who gained much experience in de-
livering speeches as a tent-show
actor. -
Senator Lucas, Democrat, Of I'LL
nois, who had been out of the city,
returned to the chamber in mid
afternoon and asked Senator Morse
how long he had been speaking.

Neither Side Trying
To Settle Bus Strike,
ST. Louis Mayor Says
BY the Associated Press

ST. LOUIS, June 21.-Neither
the Public Service Company nor the
streetcar and bus operators union
Is making "any sincere effort" to
negotiate a settlement of the nine
day-old transportation strike, May
or Alloys P. Kaufman said today.
The mayors blast against both
sides in the dispute came only a
few hours after he and U. s. Con-
ciliator A. E. johnson criticized
representatives of the company and
union for arriving two hours late
for today's meeting.
In his earlier statement Mayor
Kaufman said, "If you had shown
the same disposition to reach an
agreement on the controversy be-
tween you as you have displayed as
to matters Of your own convenience
and comfort, this controversy would
have been settled long ago."
Mayor Kaufman S asked Ii he
was considering revocation of the
Public Service Company's operating
permits but he replied that it was
an involved question with many
illegal angles"
Meanwhile, the automobile traffic
situation showed some signs of cas-
ing again today as many stores and
industries were closed over the
week end.
Bus service was started for hos
pital employees with members of the
Missouri National Guard driving
Government vehicles but the vast
majority of the population still re-
lied on the thumb to get rides.

Judge Igoe Cleared Of Delay
In Rail Reorganization
BY the Associated Press

CHICAGO, June 21. - Fedora
Judge Michael l.. Igoe was cleared
today of accusations that he hac
delayed reorganization of the bank
rupt Rock Island Railroad for almost
two years, but a United States Cir.
cult Court Of Appeals decision added
that IA years was longer than should
be required for a reorganization.
The circuit court ruling was made
yesterday on a petition of senior
creditors of the road to transfer jur.
isdiction from Judge Igoe to the ap.
pellate court. Judge Evan A. Evans
senior appeals jurist, made the rul.
ing.
The effort to remove Judge Igoe
was begun after he had modified
reorganization plan approved by the
appeals court. He contended the
plan, which allowed senior bond
holders to appoint four of five reor-
ganization managers, would permit
the Rock Island to be dominated
by Eastern banks and insurance
companies.
Judge Igoe's modification would
give the district court rather than
the senior bondholders power to ap-
point a majority of the managers.

NEW YORK, June Ala youns
mother, second cousin of formel
Secretary of War Henry L. Stim.
son, turned up at a Manhattan
hotel tonight after a three-day dis.
appearance and told relatives thai
she was glad they had found her.
Mrs. Barbara Clement, "a, whose
mother is the former Cabinet mem.

Bills on Rent Control
And Wool Regulation
| Reach White House
By the Assoeioted Press

Two more bills for which op.
ponents have urged Presidential,
vetoes reached the White House
yesterday.
The measures, dealing with tar
ifs and price support for wool ane
extending rent controls, were passed
after stormy Congressional debate.
The wool bill would authorize
the President to increase wool tar
ifs or impose import limits when.
ever foreign wool shipments en-
danger the domestic price support
program. The bill would extend the
support program through 1948.
Signature Expected.
The second measure would extend
Federal rent control until March l.
1948, and permits an increase in
rents as much as Is per cent if land
lords and tenants agree on lease
running through next year.
Rent bill proponents believe the
President will sign the measure, per-
haps reluctantly, because otherwise
there will be no Federal controls
after July when the present law
expires.
The White House said the Presi-
dent has until midnight July 2 to
act on both bills.
Three Democratic legislators
called the White House late yes
terday to urge the President to sign
the wool bill. They are Senators
OMahoney of wyoming, and Hatch
of New Mexico, and Representative
Granger of Utah.
Senator O'Mahoney told reporters
the President listened very patti
emily" and said he would take the
bill under advisement.
The Senator added:
This is not a tariff bill. 1t does
not propose to increase the tariff
nor does it propose to increase the
cost of wool to consumers. This
measure has only the effect of sup
porting the wool price at the OPA
ceiling established during the war;
Senator O'Mahoney described the
provision permitting higher tariff
or restrictive quotas as wholly dis
cretionary with the President" and
said there was no possibility that
this section would have to be used
before the proposed act expires at
the end of 1948.
He disagreed with assertions that
the measure would scrap the recip-
rocal trade program.

rule, limiting debate. Present rules
require tWo-thirds.
Early in his speech yesterday
Senator Morse called attention to
his own views on filibustering, and
said he would vote at any time for
rule to make the practice impos-
sible.
He declared, however, that he
also was contending for safeguards
against unreasonable use of the
unanimous consent agreement in
fixing time to vote on issues. The
Oregon Senator also argued his
flibuster yesterday was not aimed
at preventing the Senate from vot-
ing on a bill, but merely to delay
a vote until next week.
After Senator Morse had taken
his seat at 4:30 yesterday afternoon,
Senator Russell, Democrat, of Geor-
gia obtained permission to print In
the Congressional Record an article
appearing in a national magazine
in June, 1916, under the title, How
to Bust Filibuster" Senator Rus
sell said the author was 'the dis
tinguished Senator from Oregon,
Mr. Morse"
Levity Breaks Monotony.
Good-natured levity occasionally
broke the monotony of the long
night and day of serious discus
sion of the veto message. At one
point, Senator Ferguson, Republi-
can, of Michigan asked Senator
Morse:
Can the Senator inform us how
much longer he will be talking?"
Il don't know" replied Senator
Morse. Il have glass of milk over
here intend to drink in a moment
and 1t has very invigorating ef-
feet on me-"
The 80 hours and ST minutes the
Senate kept going through Friday
and Saturday also fell far short of
the record for continuous session,
set in 1915, when debate on ship
purchase bill went on for 54 hours
and 10 minutes.
Elated over the agreement to vote
Monday, Senator Wherry told news
men yesterdays developments DEM
onstrated you can crack a hlibuster
whenever majority is determined
to do it."
I'VE never would have gotten a
unanimous consent agreement to
vote if We had not forced them to
stay in session all night and all day"
The success of the continuous ses-
sion was due to the fact that more
than 60 Senators remained at the
Capitol to answer quorum calls
throughout the night.
When a majority fails to remain
on hand for a night session, the
lack ofa quorum forces an adjourn
ment. and ends all proceedings un-
til the next day.

Senate's Record Session
Held in 1915-24 Days
By the Associated Press


Thelongest continuous Senate ses-
sion on record was a two-and-a-
quarter-day marathon in 1915.
The Senate was debating ship
purchase bill and it stayed in session
from noon on February 8 until 6:10
pm. on February 10-a total of Sd
hours, 10 minutes. The bill was not
passed.
The most recent around clock
session was in 1927.
Considering a resolution to extend
the life of committee investigating
the election of William Ware as a
Senator from Pennsylvania, the
Senate stayed in session from II
m. March until 1902 am. March
4, a total of 81 hours and 2 minutes.
There was an 18-hour, 20-minute
session in 1885 over the National
Industrial Recovery Act. That was
pretty much a one-man show. The
late Senator Huey Long, of Louisi-
ana, held the floor for Is hours and
IS minutes.
