impression they were about to re-

ment. Letters from some irate
"skips" were introduced to show
they expected either a Govern
ment check or at least a legacy
from a departed relative.
The only question before him,
Trial Examiner Ballinger said, was
whether the letters were "decep-
tive" in offering a check for a
small sum" when only a dime
was involved.
Mr.. Bennett said a dime was
certainly a sum" and contended
it was a small sum-"
Mr.. Ballinger said he would
take the case under advisement
for a month and commended Mr.
Bennett. You have been as fail

EIIender Blocks Action
On Court House Paintings

Senator Ellender, Democrat. OF
Louisiana blocked Senate action
yesterday on a bill to convert the
old Federal Court House in Ju-
dietary Square into a portrait gal
lery when the courts move into the
new building on Connecticut ave-
nue..
Senator Ellender argued that in
view of the shortage OF Govern
ment Office space, action on the
bill should be deferred until after
the courts are ready to move.
Senator Green, Democrat, of
Rhode Island, in charge of the
bill, said it had been amended to
meet that objection by providing
that the General Service Admin
istration would have first claim
on the building if the Government
needs it for Office space. Senator
Ellender said he still thought ac-
tion should be put off.
Senator Green said there is need
for a portrait gallery because
paintings of many distinguished
Americans are hidden away be-
hind doors and in dark corridors
of various buildings.
