Trumon's Charge Bill
Cuts Executive Power
By J. A. O'Leory

A new battle between the
! White House and Congress was
touched off late yesterday when
President Truman vetoed a bill
dealing with the method of in
vestigating appointees to the
Atomic Energy Commission.
The President described as IAN
unwarranted encroachment of the
Legislative upon the Executive
Branch" the bill which would have
enabled the Senate members of the
Joint Atomic Energy Committee to
call on the FBI to investigate nomi-
nees for the Atomic Energy Com
mission.
Senator Knowland, Republican, of
California, one of the chief advo-
Gates OF the bill, came bsck with
this reply:
by his veto of this legislation
the President has lowered an iron
curtain which will prevent the
Senate from having access to in
formation essential to the discharge
of the Senate's constitutional re-
sponsibility of confirmation. Our
constitutional obligation is no less
than his
HickenloOper Hits Veto.
Senator Hickenlooper. Republican,
of Iowa, chairman of the Joint
Atomic Energy Committee, called
the veto "ill-advised and unwar-
ranted." Both Seantors urged Con-
gress to override the veto.
Mr.. Truman argued that, aside
from the question of constitution
ality, he regarded the bill as "un-
necessary and unwise" because it
would authorize Senators to direct
the head of an executive bureau to
perform functions for Congress at
the same time that the FBI chief
was performing similar functions for
the Executive Branch. The Presi-
dent said this would involve 1.-The
possibility of confusion and mis-
understanding as to which branch
controlled"
This controversy over investigative
procedure comes to a head while the
! Senate still has before it the Presi-
dents recent reappointment of the
Atomic Energy Commissioners fol-
varying terms. as follows:
! Chairman David E. Lilienthal fol
five years, Sumner T. Pike for foul
years, Lewis L. Strauss for three
years, William w. Waymack fol
two years and Robert F. Bacher fol-
one year.

ments at this time, have proposed
instead that the tenure Of all five
commissioners be extended unit
June 30, 1850. This would be nearly
two years from the August l expira-
tion date on their present terms.
They are proposing to do this by
passage through both houses of ar

By the Assoeioted Press

BY the Associated Press
DETROIT, May 15.-The Ford
Motor Co. tossed a bombshell
into automotive labor negotia-
tions today by serving notice on
the United Automobile Workers,
CIO, that it would fight to the
last the unions demands for a
3O-cent hourly increase. 1t even
proposed a wage cut.
John S. Bugas, Ford vice preSi-
dent and director of industrial re-
lations, told Ken Bannon, the
unions Ford director, in letter
that one OF the company's five spe-
cific proposals in contract negotia-
tions, which probably will be re-
opened before July IS, would be to
eliminate wage differentials between
Ford and its major competitors.
Ford average wage rates currently
are S1.53 an hour, compared with
SLAB for Chrysler Corp. workers
and SLAP for General Motors.
Says Ford Will Fight for Cut.
Asked if such a company pro-
posai meant that Ford would fight
for a wage cut, company spokes-
man quoted Mr.. Bugas as saying
"It certainly does!"
The union, In demands served
on Ford May 3, asked a 30-cent
hourly increase in wages.
Mr.. Bugas' message was directed
to the UAW at a time when $4,000
Chrysler workers were out on strike
over demands for third round of
postwar pay raises at the 30-cent
figure.
A few hours before the Ford ulti-
matum was received Emil Macy
acting UAW president in the alb
sence of Walter Reuther, declared
in Philadelphia that the striking
Chrysler employees were waging the
Nations most important" labor
battle.
Victory in the Chrysler strike will
get nearly all workers wage boost
without a strike" Mr.. Macy said.
Wants Public Security.
But the Ford announcement said
top priority" should be given in this
years wage talks to public secu-
rity'-rather than union security
or company security
I'VE think the American people
are tired of negotiations which seem
to have no other aim besides gain
for all parties except the consumer, "
Bugas wrote Ken Bannon. national
Ford director for the UAW.
Specifically, Mr.. Bugas proposed
that "substantial' wage dif1eren-
tials between Ford and its competi-
tors be eliminated. Ford average
rates were reported approximately
10 cents higher than Chrysler and
General Motors. averages"
He also proposed Ford wage rates
be scaled throughout the country at
community or area wage levels.

Wine Foneiers Indignant
Over Swiss Color Blend
BY the Assoeioted Press

GEN EVA.-Switzerland's white
wine fanciers are gurgling indig-
nantly over their glasses. With the
country's vineyards bulging with a
new crop of grapes and wine cellars
still crowded with previous vintages,
the federal council decided to get
VINE moving by permitting wineries
to make red wine out of white. This
Is done by adding little red wine
to lot of white wine.
The difficulty is that Switzerland
produces twice as much white as red
wine, but the hardy Swiss drink twice
as much red as white. &.
The mixing of the wines was the
only means available to get the
wine moving" Federal Councillor
Rodolphe Rubattel explained re-
Gently to Parliament. There was
no reason to doubt that the mixture
would be accepted" The Swiss
Tourist Agency, which keeps close
eye on such things, reviewed the
situation and said: whoever has
the nose and taste to tell the differ
ence between vintage and a mixed
wine still has q rich selection"
