of the White House. The charac-
tiers were a score of top steel COM
pany officials, wearied py more
than 8 hours of talk, and two
equally weary Government media =
tors. The mediators were John
R. Steelman, assistant to President
Truman, and David Stowe. a
White House administrative assis-
tant.
AS CIO and Steelworkers' Union
President Philip Murray left the
White House last night, a reporter
asked him if the steel workers
would be back on the job as usual
tomorrow morning. Mr.. Murray
smiled, shook his head, and re-
piled:
why ask me an iffy question
like that?"
The participants would not
comment on what went ON inside
the meeting.
There was no word as to whether
the two administration officials
were making progress toward
bringing feuding steel manage
ment and labor closer together.
The objective was to get approval
of a new work contract which
would free the vital steel industry
from months of strife.
Agreement Chances Lessened.
This, however. was the situa-
ton:
The Supreme Court ruling
barring Mr.. Truman, during sell
zure Of the steel mills from giving
the steelWorkers a wage raise les
sened the chance of agreement on
new contract. It removed a big
club which Mr.. Truman had
over the heads of the man
agement negotiators.
The ruling raised the possibility
OF another steel work stoppage
tomorrow. The steelworkers were
promised a wage increase in re-
turn for calling off a three-day
strike Friday. Now that the court
has said they can't get it, the
workers might renew their strike
regardless of what their leaders
tell them.
Mr.. Truman tried to make good
on the promise yesterday. He told
the White House negotiators
bluntly that unless they reached
quick agreement on wages he
would move tomorrow cor as soon
as we can get ready" to impose
higher wages on the industry.

piano came through and we had
to put scafolding in there to keep
the whole thing from falling
down."
One of the reasons why the
White House almost fell down."
in Mr.. Truman's opinion, was the
fact that President Coolidge put
in an upper floor with a concrete
top" without strengthening the
walls or foundations.
The President recalled an anec-
dote about Mr.. Coolidge as he
paused before a portrait of Mrs.
Coolidge with her collie dog. He
said he once looked at the picture
with Senator Morris Shepard Of
Texas and the Senator said:
Harry, that dog got my break
fast one time. when I was down

The President said he asked,
How did that happen?"

reorganization plan now before
Congress. Unless the plan is
voted down by a full membership
majority of either House within
so days the whole program goes
into effect.
From the outset, the city heads
have strongly favored creating an
advisory group to help guide their
policies. 1t was the absence of
such provision in the defeated
council manager governmental
plan that prompted much of their
criticism.
Mr.. Donohue said last night
that now that the blueprint is we'll
on it's way toward reality the Com
missioners have already buckled
down to the task of plotting de-
tailed methods of actually reor-
ganizing.
Advisory Council First Task.
One of the first tasks, he said,
is to establish the council.
1--WE would like your comment"
the Commissioner told his raGio
audience, ION the size and COM
position of this important body"
Mr.. Donohue indicated earlier
that he tends to favor a large
membership on the council. He
said he feels that Is would not be
too many. Chicago. he pointed
out. has a city council of about
so members, representing as many
wards.
At any rate, the Commissioner
said, he hopes the Districts ad-
visory council will be sufficiently
large that it can set up a number
of subcommittee among its men,
bership.
In response to questioning, Mr..
Donohue said it is uncertain at
this point whether the new ad-
visory body would take over the
functions of the many separate
committees and councils that now
advise the Commissioners on diff
ferent matters.
Administrative Set-up Studied.
Both Commissioner Donohue
and Engineer Commissioner Ber-
nard l.. Robinson have declared
that another primary step they
are undertaking now is the forma-
ton of a municipal administra-
ton department.
This is one of the 16 depart
ments they propose to establish
in their overall reorganization.
1t is vital, the Commissioners
feel, that before any of the other
departments can be formed, the
administrative branches such as
personnel, budget, finance, prop
erty and purchasing must first
be pulled together into one de-
'partment.
In Congress. the Senate Gov
ernment Operations Committee
has scheduled hearings May is
on the reorganization plan. Chair
man Mcclellan, Democrat. Of Ar
kansas, indicated the session will
be for the routine purpose of Civ
ing interested parties a chance to

To Look Into Rulings
By Cecil HolIond

A Revenue Bureau ruling al

ten off as bad debts for tax pur-
pose yesterday seemed headed fol
a double-barreled airing by Con-
greSS.
Senator Gillette, Democrat, OF
Iowa, said his elections subcom-
mittee may look into the loans
made to the New York Demo-
cratic Committee.
II intend to call the matter up
for discussion at a meeting of the
subcommittee tomorrow" Senator
Gillette said. "Then we will decide
whether it is something for us to
investigate and find out whether
there has been any circumvention
by subterfuge."
Representative Kean. Republi-
can, of New Jersey called for top
bureau officials to explain the rul-
ing in a public hearing.
Mr.. Kean is a member Of the
House Ways and Means subcom-
mittee investigating tax scandals
Nunan Again Scheduled.
He voiced his demand as the
subcommittee prepared to hold
a public hearing tomorrow for
the twice-d delayed appearance OF
former Revenue Commissioner
Joseph D. Nunan, jr.,, as a witness
The subcommittee is investigating
an unexplained $161 900 traced
to Mr.. humans accounts in the g.
year period from 1945 through
1850. Mr.. Nunan was commits
sioner March. 1914, until he re-
sighed to return to the practice
of law in New York on June 80
1947.
The suggested inquiries were
set off by the Senate speech
last week by Senator Williams
Republican, of Delaware. In the
speech Senator Williams disclosed
that three wealthy citizens had re.
ceived Revenue Bureau rulings
that a total of $4,000 in loan.
to the New York Committee .coulc
be written off as bad debts.
Mr.. Kean said that Deputy
Commissioner of Revenue E.. I
McLarney must appear publicly
to explain his decision on the
matter in 1948. He added thai
Commissioner John B. Dunlar
also should appear before the
House subcommittee ito explain
how any recurrence Of this situa.
ton will be handled in the future.
Seeks Basis for Ruling.
The New Jersey Representative
said he wanted to know what in.
fluences may have been exerted or
the bureau which caused "the
hasty decision" on the ruling. He
also said he wanted to know
whether any other individuals
Republican or Democrat-have In
the past been accorded the same
favorable treatment.
IF this decision is in accord
with the law. which I doubt very
MUCH" Mr.. Kean said, "the law
must promptly be changed. Other
wise, such methods of writing of
campaign contributions on income
tax returns as bad debts and,
thereby, making Uncle Sam con-
tribute handsomely toward polit-
ical campaigns may become a gen.
eral practice !"

tration for Defense as production
of aviation gasoline felt the
igreateSt pinch of the national oil
workers strike.
The PAD said the cut would
apply to both commercial airlines
and private planes. The order
would halt use of gasoline for all
sport and pleasure flights.
Motorists meantime have had
little trouble getting gasoline for
automobiles. But representatives
Iof major oil companies are to

committee tomorrow to discuss
whether an emergency exists in
auto gasoline.
Under the PAD order on avia-

Tuesday to the end of the month
to IS per cent of the gasoline they
used in March.
Because of the longer period in
March, the actual cut in allowed

on schedule changes Friday, to be
put into effect in the event the

ably would be affected first, with
some being discontinued and
others Cancelled temporarily.
Changes Take Week.
Elmer Thompson, vice-president
Of the Air Transport Association,
declared:
"It's a long. tough job to change
schedules-it takes a week or more
to work out complete changes.
Frank Brunton, manager of the
American Airlines Office here, said
schedule changes are being worked
out.
! A spokesman for Eastern Air
Lines said the first probable effect
on Eastern's operations would be
combining of shuttle flights be-
tween here and New York.
Daily Reports Filed.
Capital Airlines, which has been
filing daily reports with it's main
office in Miami on gasoline sup
plies available here during the
strike, said effect of the order on
its schedule of about 80 flights
a day is not yet known.
The Trans World Airlines Office
here has received no instructions
concerning schedule changes.
The airlines reported no short
age of aviation gasoline has de-
