Senate Leaders Seek
For Speedy Vote on
Labor Curb Measure
Hope to Spend Remainder
Of Week in Debating
Foreign Relief Measure
By ]. A. Q'Leory

| Senate leaders will press fol
a final vote tomorrow or Tues
day on labor control legislation
to pave the way for a wide va
riety of other major bills piling
up on their calendar.
If this hope can be realized, the
remainder of the week will be de-
voted to the administration $780,
100000 foreign relief bill, to help
the people of liberated areas, which
the House cut to $200,o0O, 900.
Both houses also are expected to
iron out during. the week the few
minor differences remaining In the
$400, 900 900 Greek Turkish aid bill
and send it to the White House. AL
though Chairman Vandenberg of
the Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee was not ready to announce
last night whether he will accept or
go to conference on House changes
in the measure, he said II see no in
surmountable difficulty over early
agreements"
Tax Debate Due in Week.
Senate debate is due to start a
week from tomorrow on the $4,000
100000 cut in personal income taxes
approved by the House and reported
Friday from the Senate Finance
Committee. Democratic efforts to
change the tax program, or to give
debt retirement precedence over tax
relief next year, may keep that sub
ject before the Senate until the end
of May.
Meanwhile, there are a dozen big
appropriation bills that should be-
come law by June 80, only one OF
which has passed both houses.
All of this means that the Re-
publicans will have to exert every
effort to keep the Senate program
moving at faster pace if they to
stick to their present plans to ad-
journ Congress July 31-tne date
fixed in the Congressional Reorgan-
ization Act. It could be extended by
action of both houses.
Truman Weighs Portal Bill.
Meanwhile, President Truman
faces a decision by Wednesday
whether to sign or veto the bill out
lawing most of the more than S.
000,000,000 in portal pay claims.
Some of Mr.. Truman's we'll
wishers in Congress were reported
yesterday to be urging him to sign
the portal bill to offset the political
effect of the veto they expect him
to apply later to the final version
of the labor measure.
Although the labor bill the SEN
ate is about to pass is less drastic
than the one the House approved
these Democratic congressional
sources are convinced the COM
promise finally worked out in con-
ference will be unacceptable to the
White Eouse. Their rca~onino is
that if Mr.. Truman signs the portal
bill and vetoes the general labor
control measure, the Democrats
could meet Republican charge
that Mr.. Truman is entirely pro-
labor.
Move to Override Veto Seen.
Chairman Taft of the Senate
Republican Policy Committee ex-
poets an effort will be made te
override a veto of the labor bill
For that reason Republican lead
ers are hopeful the Senate version
will pass by more than two-thirds

for colored farm youth of South
Carolina, reports E. N. Williams

visors of Negro Extension work
in that state.
The camp, which is to be nam.
ed in memory of Harry Daniels.
late Extension supervisor who
served the state for more than
twenty-five years, will be situat-.
ed on a 267 acre site spreading
along Lake Marion near Orange

purchased for $1,000 with funds
raised by the colored farm and
home demonstration agents OF
the state.
Altogether, the agents have raj.
sed nearly 5000 and they have
asked the South Carolina State
Planning Board for $4,000 doll
ars to construct two dorminator-
les, a recreation hall, workshop
and a model farm home.
Camp plans also call for the
establishment of small mode
farm, and the seeding Of 10000
pines for naval stores and tim
Der, and 200 pecan trees. The
agent expect to collect enough
from the sale of naval stores
timber, pulpwood, pecans, and OIL

a large nart of the operating ex.
penses of the camp.
With the construction of CAM

to get under way next year, there
will be a total of four state cam
pue and 303 county camps TO-

scientist one day that 1t would be
fine idea to let word seep up to
his director that, by mischance, he
had got into the range of the other
pictures camera,
"Then, we put the clincher on 1t"
DR.. Wensel says. ELLA Kazan was
directing the other picture, Sea of
Grass so we had him call Taurog
and ask for me- Kazan's story was
that had wandered into his picture
and that he needed me to finish the
sequence. Kazan suggested that it
would take only about day of my
time away from The Beginning or
the End"
In the fashion of Hollywood skep-
tics, Taurog was not quite convinced,
but neither did he want TO gum up
another directors picture if it ac-
tually had happened that DR.. Wensel
strayed too prominently into a Sea
of Grass" scene.
"Taurog was quite cagey about it,"
DR.. Wensel says. But shortly after
his talk with Kazan, he came over to
me and told me the latter wanted to
see me. He did not know Just what
it was about, he said, but it seemed
like good idea that I should drop
over and talk with Kazan. He ended
up by saying I wouldn't be needed
the next day and that maybe had
better drop over to the other side
of Lot 2 and see what it was all
about.
IT DIDN'T drop over. Instead, I
took the day of and went to the
races"
AS to their actual feelings about
the bomb, both Drake and DR.. Wen
sci play them in the picture.
II guess the part of Matt Cochran
determined the way I feel" Drake
says. "He never could make up his
mind completely about the meaning
of the thing. I can't either"
DR.. Wensel is much more definite.
He says:
Eve had to do it. If we had not,
someone else would. If any power
is going to have the atomic bomb,
I wanted it to be this one. The way
things were going at the time in the
research into fssion, there was
nothing else for us to do. We did it,
and I don't think we could have
done it except under the stress of
war;"
Both the actor and the scientist,
for all the difference in their emo
tions on the subject, think 1.-THE
Beginning or the End" will contri-
butte to the intelligent disposal of
the bomb problem.

a scientist in the Government, and
Tom will continue acting in Holly
wood.
It is not that DR.. Wensel did not
enjoy his brief career as an actor,
nor that Tom was not fascinated
with acting for while like bright
young scientist.
AS a matter of fact, it develops
in a chat with them, the two not
only mixed routines but learned to
admire each other in the mixing
process.
"He's quite an actor" Drake says.
"He acts like scientist" DR.. Wen
sci says of Drake.
+ X
DR.. Wensel became an actor more
or less by circumstance in Holly
wood. He went out there to work
on The Beginning or the End" but
his job was to be technical advisor.
He stepped into the film in one
quick scene to play himself. That
turned out to be a singular thing
since everyone else involved in the
bomb project is played by an ex-
pensive actor, or actress, in the
M-G-M opus which has its world
premiere at the Palace tonight.
Dr.. Wensel thinks his future focus
on science is more or less guaranteed
by his contract as an actor.
Norman Taurog (the pictures
director) tied me UP, I think" he
says. "He made me sign con-
tract which provides that I never
should act again."
DR.. Wensel feels that strong
public demand for him as an actor
might make Taurog relent, but he
is even much more positive that
there will be no such public de-
mand.
Mrs. Wensel, he admits, does not
think much of him as an actor,
either.
Hollywood's practical joke streak,
its proneness to gags on technical
advisers from strange professions,
gave DR.. Wensel some of his most
unforgettable moments during his
months of work on 1.-THE Beginning
or the End"
But, Drake recalls, the physicists
turned out to be quite gagster in
his own right.
DR.. Wensel was always being
kidded about getting mixed up in
another picture being shot on Lot
No. 2. Taurog was his greatest
kidder.

Figures On The 1916 Owls
By Paul Macy

The Owls are clicking off quite a
few double plays this year-1O6
through Sunday-but they are long
way from their record of last year,
when they lead the league with 1853.
Not only that, but find, on check
ing over the official statistics for
1916, that of the 1913 teams that
played last season in the two Major
Leagues and the AZ Minor Leagues,
there were only IS teams. that com
pleted more double plays than the
Owls, and when you consider that
the Owls played IA less games than
any other of the teams that were
ahead of them - they played 40
games less than either San Francisco
or Sacramento-their record is all
the more remarkable. Here are the
statistics of the first II teams in
double plays:
