Jam In Senate
 Appropriations

WASHINGTON, (P)-A total of $26, 1909, ,282, ,632 in appropriations piled up today behind a plodding Senate and there appeared little chance of a quick break in this log jam.
 A bipartisan bloc of economy advocates is challenging almost every expense item in an attempt to chip off few millions here and there.
 A Senate-House com m itt e meanwhile worked on a compro- mise to keep the governments vast machinery rolling with emer- gency funds until the cash can be provided by appropriation.
 The House and Senate passed a stop-gap measure yesterday-the second time this year-to provide a part of the money which should have been available by July 1. The House voted to keep the money flowing to agencies through August. But the Senate put the cutoff date at Aug. b. Conferees are trying to work out this diff ference.

Keep Flags Waving Is Problem

WASHINGTON, CP)-The star spangled banner-longer may she wave.
 That's the goal of a researcher project undertaken by the public buildings administration, which buys flags for more than l,5OO buildings at cost of about SIS ,OOO a year.
 The average cotton-and-woo flag lasts 27 days, buildings com missioner w. E. Reynolds told re- porters. The flags fade and tear more quickly in winter than in summer, and some areas are hard CT on flags than others. On build ings in the windy, fOggy San Francisco Bay area, for example, at least one new flag must be in- stalled every day, Reynolds said.
 Last winter, for the first time. a nylon flag was tested. It was flown from the new Interior building for 76 days, a record for that season.
 Nylon costs about twice as much as standard bunting, how ever.
