BOWLING

The highlight of last nights bowl
ing on the Elks Alleys were the
games between first place Capitol
Theatre and runner-up Baranoi
Cigar Stand. The low scores lndl-
Gated pressure on both teams was
heavy. but the Baranof team had
sufficient extra punch to take two
points. placing them only one game
behind. Next week concludes the
first round. Since both Capitol and
Baranof face formidable COMPETE
ton at that time, the probable first
half champion is still a toss-up.
In the mems individual scoring
last night Leonard Holmquist was
high man in series with 504 and
single game of ITO. The women
were paced by Vivian Powers with
a ATS series and Florence Holm
ouist with a 1875 single game.

For Servicemen Dropped
By The Associo1sd Press

The House Armed Services
Committee today shelved q plan
to let the Government build
$97 SAB 900 worth OF homes for
families of servicemen in this
country.
The committee struck the pro-
vision from multi-million dollar

recommendation of Chairman
Vinson. He said the job should
be turned over to private firms
operating under the Wherry Act.
That act gives government aid
to contractors putting UP houses

Senators Want
Postal Cutback
Order Rescinded
Committee Votes,
9 to 0, to Direct
Donaldson to Act
BY The AsscSiesed Press

The Senate Post once Com.
mittee today approved a resolu-
ton directing that Postmaster
General Donaldson drop his econ
omy cutbacks in the postal serv-
ice. The vote was Q 10 o.
On April Is Mr. Donaldson cut
down on a number OF services.
explaining that the department
lacked the money TO continue
them. One order cut residential
mail deliveries TO one day and
reduced deliveries in business
areas.
Mr.. Donaldson also shortened
the hours of window service and
dropped some night handling Of
mail.
Barrage Of Protests.
Since his orders were issued,
there has been barrage Of pro-
tests.
Mr.. Donaldson said the reduce
tiops were necessary because Con-
gress had decided against max
ing postal rate increases he had
recommended. He proposed in
creaseS to bring in about $500
millions year. The House
trimmed that to 500 million and
the Senate has not acted.
For the fiscal year beginning
July l. Mr., Donaldson asked q
$2,235 GOT 900 appropriation, Con-
gress has not acted finally. but
the House Appropriations Com
mittee has recommended that the
departments funds be held 10
S2,207 100000 Mr., Donaldson said
actual expenditures during the
present fiscal year will top S2,-
100000.
Recommendations Go to Senate.
The Senate committees recon-
mendations go to the Senate. Tha
committee approved q resolution
and two bills, which would have
the effect of cancelling Mr.. Dom
aldSons cutbacks.
II the Senate and House should
take the same view as the COM
mittee. Congress would be obli-
gated to supply the money needed
for the restored services.
Just before acting on the meas
ures the committee heard Presi-
dent William c. Doherty Of the
AFL National Association of Let
ter Carriers protest that the cut
backs are working a hardship on
the men who carry mail and are
injuring their morale.

House Rejects Attempt
To Divert Budget Bill
As Final Vote Nears
Hoffman Tries to Take Up
Truman Proposal to
Cut NLRB Power
By John A. Giles

The House moved toward final
action on the huge omnibus appro-
priations bill today after rejecting
a Republican attempt to take up
President Truman's plan to strip
the National Labor Relations
Board chairman of his powers.
AS the session opened Repre-
sentative Hoffman. Republican of
Michigan moved that the House
lay aside the appropriations meas
ure and consider the Presidents
reorganization plans instead.
But Majority Leader Mccormick
OF Massachusetts. who was pre-
siding, ruled that under a unani-
nous consent agreement adopted
April 5, the $40 billion money
measure would have to be finally
disposed of first unless the mem
bers voted otherwise.
Hoffman Stresses Time Element.
Mr.. Hoffman pointed out that
the reorganization plans submit
ted by Mr.. Truman, including the
one to change the NLRB, would go
into effect May "a If adverse
action was not taken before that
date, whereas Congress had until
June 80 to provide appropriations.
"The danger of permitting the
President to propose a reorganiza-
ton plan without insuring the
right Of either branch Of Congress
to reject was time and again
pointed out and stressed when the
basic reorganization law was de-
bated in the 81st Congress-" Mr..
Hoffman declared. That such
danger was real is now appar-
ent."
IT is entirely strange that a
House that passed the Taft Hart
ley Act and which has refused to
repeal that act, should permit a
President, politically allied with
labor unions, by reorganization
plan No. IL to repeal one of the
more important provisions of that
act-the provision creating and
defining the duties Of the inde-
pendent general council"

For the second straight day,
United States marshals broke into
the luxurious Woodley Park Tow

the second time she refused to be

Aided by locksmith, and using
their solid shoulders, two men
from the marshals office and an
attorney pushed into the place this
morning. only to find Mrs. Keleher
in bed. with covers drawn up To
her chin.
After q conference, the marShals
decided to move the furnishing.

apartment, and as the work begar
Mrs. Keleher could be heard sob.

The marshal's Office meanwhile
had summoned an ambulance tt

would be taken.

Mrs. Keleher said she probably
would go to the Glenn Dale San

40 pounds in a year and now
weighs 1877.
