Thomas Is Retained
By Building Laborers.
Sampler Faces Trial

Local "A, AFL Building Labor
ers' Union, last night voted to re-
tain Henry Thomas as its presi-
dent in the latest development in
the complicated affairs of the
union.
Mr.. Thomas was suspended last
month by the Executive Board
following union trial on charges
he had Communist affiliations.
He denied the charges but ad-
mitted he was an ex-Communist.
He was reinstated later and the
vote last night was to determine
if he should be ouSted or retained
as president.
Mr.. Thomas said he was re-
tanned by an Overwhelming" ma
jority. His chief critic, Thomas
G. Sampler. secretary-treasurer of
the local, said there was much
confusion at the meeting and he
didn't know what the final vote
was.
Mr.. Sampler, who also has ad-
mited to being an ex-Communist,
now faces union trial on charges
preferred by Thomas constitu-
ent. Mr.. Thomas would not
oivulge the charges but it is
known they deal. in part, with
Mr.. Samples action in making
statements to the press derogatory
to the union president.

News Received Calmly
In Truman's Home Town
By the Associated Press

INDEPENDENCE, Mo-, Nov. 2.
President Truman's home town
took the news of the assassination
attempt almost as calmly as the
President.
The Blair House pistol battle
still was the main topic of con-
versation around the Independ-
ence square today, but otherwise
the main reaction was one of re-
lief that the President was not in
jured.
"You can't scare him by shoot
ing at him." said Everett Miller,
courthouse building superintend-
ent and a close friend of Mr.. Tru-
man.
Hes a soldier and has been
under fire many times"
The independence Examiner re-
ceived several telephone calls yes
terday shortly after the shooting
but otherwise. a reporter said, the
town did not seem unduly excited.
Friends and relatives of the
President received many calls
from those who first heard of the
assassination attempt. The word
quickly spread through the town.
Mayor Robert P. Weatherford,
jr., said plans would not be
changed for a dedication program
at the Independence Memorial

dents scheduled visit here.

Conflicting claims of what the
voters will do Tuesday continued
to descend on Washington today
from Republican and Democratic
campaigners. -...
Senator Brewster of Maine,
chairman of the Republican Sena-
torial Campaign Committee, said
he believes the COP will gain a
minimum of four seats in the Sen
ate, with IAN excellent probability
of netting eight. The Republicans
need seven to take control.
AS against this forecast. Leslie
l.. Biff1e, secretary of the Senate,
a prominent Democrat. said re-
ports reaching him indicate the
Democrats will increase their Sem
ate margin by one or two seats.
House Forecasts Also Conflict.
Several days ago spokesmen for
both parties on the House side
Evening star., 1950-11-02

made similar conflicting forecasts
on the fight for control of that
body. where the Republicans must
add 49 to the 169 members they
now have to control.
Two questions are bothering all
politicians attempting to peer into
the future. These are:
/. Will the vote be heavy OF
light?
2. How are the farmers of the
Midwest, who tipped the scales for
President Truman in 194S, going
this year and will they turn out
in large numbers?
Heavy voting in the big cities
ordinarily helps the Democrats,
and a large turnout in the rural
areas should aid the Republicans,

KrOll sees Heavy Vote.
Jack Kroll, director of the CIO
Political Action Committee, be-
lieves the vote will be heavy. He
predicts As million will 20 to the
polls, which would set a record for
a non-presidential year.
Mr.. Kroll also told reporters he
expects the Democrats to pick ur
three or four additional seats in
the Senate and Is to 80 in the
House.
If that happens. he said, it will
mark a historic change" because
the party in power would be i'm

Missing Vessel,
 Headed for kngh9Fage, Arrives in California

SAN DIEGO. Calif., Oct. 3 - aH Its crew of five down to 8. ra- toned supply of water and only beans and rice in it's food lockers. the. 47-foot schooner Tantalus. of Minneapolis, Minn., arrived here today
 The vessel was the object of a widespread search by Coast Guard planes in recent weeks when it be- came overdue on a trip from Man zanillo expected to take about 8 month. The Tantalus left Man zanillo Aug. 8.
 Capt. Warren o. Christanson, %, of St. Paul, REinn., said that the sturdy two-masted vessel swung 800 miles out to sea to avoid the hurri- cane area, and then fought strong headwinds as it headed back to the coast. The auxiliary engine was used sparin9ly for fear of running out of gas
 Aboard were Christianson's wife, Faith, 28; Harry Colman, 2l, who will leave the vessel here to assume studies at Carleton College, North field, Minn.; Eldridge Arnold, 22, and James R. Mcdonnell, g, an accountant, Cranston, RI.
 The Tantalus, built by Christian son over 4-year period, sailed down the Mississipptfrom H1inneap- oils last Nov. IS with Anchorage, Alaska, as ultimate destination. Christianson, g June, 1949, gradua e of the University of Minnesota lew school, plans to open a law office there.
 The Tantanlus will remain in Southern California waters this fall and winter.

Spider Monkey,

During visiting hours, the mon
key house at the ZOO is never with
out fascinated guests. Spider mon
keys are accomplished acrobats,
furnishing breathless entertain
ment for youngsters who feel con-
fldent they can duplicate some Of
the stunts. Monkeys never lack
appeal.
Being Of a shy disposition, the
performers work toward the cage
ceiling or treetops. Watch them
change positions with each other,
like gay trapeze performers wait
ing for applause, swinging with
ease with feet and hands occupied.
The long prehensile tail is q fifth
hand holding steadfastly to It's
anchorage, permitting the monkey
to pilfer anything within reach.
In Indian and other Oriental
countries, spider monkeys enjoy
special privileges which they often
abuse. They enter homes by OPEN
ing doors or lifting latches; they
delight In opening boxes, and they
take home whatever appeals to
them. They are used to children,
and children adore them for the
way they accept spanks with utter
unconcern.
There are q number of species
Of spider monkeys indigenous to
tropical America, all highly special
ized for an arboreal life. Indeed,
they are more adopted to such a
life than any other monkey. Their
extremely light weight enables
them to climb higher among the
thinner top branches and their re-
markedly long legs and arms per-
NIT greater reaching power. The
long prehensile tail, which varies
In length with the species OF the
moneky, has many uses.
AL spider monkeys have tiny
head with pinched, shr,lnken
cheeks, bright eyes filled with curi-
osity, . pink tongue and sharp
teeth.
