President Truman today entered
Walter Reed Hospital for a check
up after being confined to the
White House for four days with
what was described as a mild
virus infection"
Joseph Short, press secretary,
said the President might be there
for two or three days. The move
was directed by Maj. Gen. Wallace
Graham, the Presidents personal
physician.
Mr.. Short said the Presidents
temperature was normal this
morning. He added:
"He is just about over the virus.
There was no fever this morning.
He is getting very close to COM
plete recovery"
Mr.. Short said Gen. Graham
wanted the President to go to the
hospital because of its facilities for
a thorough checkup.

The President drove to
Walter Reed in his own car with
Gen. Graham, leaving the White
House at TAO am.
1t is the first time in his seven
years in the White House that
President Truman has been hos
pitalized.
During his stay in the hospital,
the President intends to keep
abreast of his work, which is now
devoted mainly to disposing of
about 100 bills passed in the last
days of Congress. He signed about
100 minor measures last night.

Walter Reed with the Chief
Executive to take care of any

Savages aren't so susceptible to

Many physicians. If pressed. will
admit that perhaps one third of
the patients who crowd their watt

New England Arbiter
Orders Textile Wage
Cut 8 Gents an Hour
Decision for RoIIbock
Announced Jointly by
Union and Management
By the Assoeioied rress

NEW BEDFORD, Mass, July
16.-A rollback in textile wages
of 81a cents an hour to the level
of March 10, 1851, was ordered
today by Prof. Walter Gellhorn,
arbiter for the New Bedford-Fall
River Cotton Manufacturers AS
sociation and the Textile Workers
of America, CIO.
The current average scale is
$1.40E2 an hour.
The decision of Prof. Gellhorn,
a Columbia University law pro-
fessor. was announced by union
and management representatives.
Escalator Clause Remains.
The decision allows the union
to retain a cost Of living escalator
clause won by the union in nego-
tiations with management in
March, 1851. That clause already
had netted the workers four cents
an hour increase.
The management had sought a
Is cents an hour pay cut after re-
opening negotiations with the
union last December.
The decision covers roughly
$4,000 employees in the two-city
area. where the wage scale gen.
orally has set the pattern for
SIS 900 textile workers in the
Northeastern States.
Southern Differential Noted.
The union had agreed not to
ask for wage increase for the
Fall River-New Bedford workers,
but held that the industry could
continue the current scale. How
ever, the manufacturers through
Seabury Stanton, association
spokesman. pointed to a differ
ential in wages between the North
and South and proposed the re-
duction.
Several weeks ago, the Bates
Manufacturing Co., with five
plants in Maine, won another
arbitrator's decision, cutting wages
IT cents hourly.

Miller virtually assures Senator
Byrd's reelection in November.
1t entities him to a fourth full
term in the Senate and materially
strengthens his hand for the State
and National Democratic conven-
tions about to get underway.
Senator Byrd rolled up a sur
prising margin of $4,000 votes
over his liberal opponent in the
party primary. An Associated
Press tabulation for 1876 pre-
cincts out of 1873 in the State
gave him 212,025 votes to 1882
for Mr.. Miller.
The vote total set a record for
primaries in Virginia.
In other Virginia contests:
Edmund D. Campbell tri-
umphed over three opponents to
win nomination in the new 10th
District.
Representative Burton was re-
nominated in the 9Th District over
Moss Plunkett.
Wesley w. Cooper was nomi-
mated for the Arlington County
Board.
Victory Amounts to Rout.
Senator Byrd's margin of victory
amounted to a rout in many Vir-
ginia communities regarded as an
Reorganization strongholds.
Chief among these are the neigh
boring cities and counties that
comprise the 10th district, which
Mr.. Miller had been expected to
sweep. Despite the concentration
of Fair Deal proponents in this
district, Senator Byrd trounced
Mr.. Miller with 1900 votes to
spare.
Only one of Virginia's 10 con-
greSSional districts wound up in
the Miller column yesterday. This
was the 9th, or southwest dis
trict, where CIO coal miners
sparked the opposition to Senator
Byrd. Even so, the Senator made
a race of it. On the basis of re-
turns so far, he trailed Mr.. Miller
by 1.406 votes out Of . total
of $4,000 cast.
Promises to Continue Fight.
Despite his bruising defeat, Mr..
Miller came up promising to keep
up his fight against the Byrd Or
ganization. After extending con-
gratulations to the Senator, he
vowed to continue his fight to
overthrow the organization by
electing an anti-Byrd Democrat
as Governor next year. Presum-
ably, his reference was to Dele
gate Robert Whitehead of Mel
son County, who is regarded as q
likely candidate in the 1853 guber-
material primary.
It was a sweet victory for Sen
ator Byrd, a 65-year-old apple
