" Plans eW Road

The city plan. to erect a new sea V all, widen Marine Way to its rveyed width and connect the road to Brooklyn avenue | The city needs another read through town, and during the pavIng of Alaska Way it will he the only route open to traffic other than the long detour out 1 Mill Bay to the Brooklyn ave- i nue junction." Mayor Lee Bet tinger said.
 Kraft's beach warehouse will be moved from it's present loca- tion to back of the dry goods store and the creek will be filled
 Ben Kraft has expressed his willingness to have the ware- house moved.
 However no papers have been signed or 8 survey made showing where the road will go through Kraft's property
 The completion of the transi- tion manhole at the corner of Brooklyn and Alaska Way has solved the problem of drainage and will eliminate the small creek that ru1s under knudsen s and the Kraft dry goods store
 The city is advertising for bids on the project.
 Earlier the city planned to construct the secondary road be- twe.n Brooklyn avenue and Mill Bay road, starting between Pat Abston's home and Walter Kize, 8 and running to Brooklyn, coming out below the Quality Bakery
 A letter from Marshall Crutcher, administrator ot tn w. J. Erskine estate. granted permission to the city to cut through lots Al and 42 of U. S. survey 562. which are lots aioin- ing Mill bay road beyond the Bakery.
 However the permission to use the lots was granted with the understanding that the right to cross the ground may be ter. minated at anytime without not ice and that in no case shall 1t last longer than one year
 Councilman Jack Hinckel sad, the cost of the job and the short period the city could use the road does not warrant the spending of the city's mon-

House. Returns Labor Bill To Committee

Continued from Page One) ton forces needed to swing eight votes overnight to put the Wood bill in the cooler.
 They succeeded in getting the needed margin although there was one more vote cast today than in yesterdays ballot.
 The motion to recommit was supported by 193 Democrats. IS Republicans and one American Labor member.
 Voting against recommittal were 62 Democrats and 147 Re- publicans.
 The outcome served to take some of the sting from the rebuff handed to President Truman by yesterdays vote. He had made Taft-Hartley repeal a key point of his reelection campaign and-af- ter yesterdays maneuvering - it appeared the administration could not put it over.
 Today's vote salvaged another chance some time in the future.
 Rep. Priest D.-Tenn.), the Dem- ocrat whip" or assistant leader, had the job of rounding up the needed votes for the overnight shift.
 Before the ballot, even he ap- peared to be uncertain whether the administration could win. Priest would say only that there appear ed to be a "fair chance"

Recession Will Bring Relief
 To Consumers"

WASHINGTON, (P)-The Pres ident of the United States cham Der of commerce said yesterday hat recession from postwar peaks" of business is inevitable. He added that t will bring "over- due relief 10 millions of consum- ers."
 Earl o. Shreve, in the keynote address of the chambers 37th an- nual meeting, also told some 2,500 business leaders:
 When the current readjustment has run it's course, and buying for n ventory replacement revives. business should find itself on a sounder and infinitely more satis- factory basis"
 The shift to more solid and orderly pattern of prosperity" will be blocked or delayed, Shreve said, if the government raises taxes and lays down economic controls-as proposed by Presi- dent Truman-or, embarks on a policy of in-the-red financing. "It is self-evident to all think ing men," he declared, that the federal budget should be balanced through the economy in spending mot through higher taxes" Two other speakers at the first general session of the four-day meeting offered plans to bulwark prosperity, at home and abroad:
 Busi n S smen should give prompt attention to the task of pricing consumers back into the market by lowering prices and bringing out new products, said Harry A. Bullis, board chairman of General Mills, Inc, Minneapo- lis.
 A price decline is "naturlal and inevitable" Bullis said-"We are laying the groundwork for a long and sustained rise in the living standard of America"
 And Canadian, president Hen ry C. Birks, of the Canadian cham Der of commerce, Montreal, pro- posed an "ABC" committee of American, British and Canadian businessmen to labor for the free ing of world trade from currency and other trade barriers.

Schooner in Distress
Arrives Al C'sted
After 22days al Sea

An eighty-two ton schooner,
the Franklin DIR, whose home
port is St. Vincent, arrived in
Christiansted harbor yester-
day afternoon virtually with
out food and water and her
captain, John Augustus Allen,
in III health.
Captain Allen, part owner of
the vessel, said he sailed from
Curacao on October q, with a
cargo of Demorara greenheart
wood, used in building jetties,
for Trinidad. He became seri-
ously i'll and his condition be-
came progressively worse by
November 3; he was thus un-
able to do anything with the
vessel and turned over COM
mand to the first mate, who
evidently lost his course. Dur
ing this time signals were sent
up with flares and a search
light; these were seen by pass
ing steamers and replies were
made, Captain Allen said, but
no one aboard seemed able to
understand them and the ships
