period"
He said he believes the ex-
ample Senator Taft set in CO.
operating with the Eisenhower
administration will be remem-
bered by supporters of the
Ohioan.
The new Majority Leader said
it is his feeling that the congress
sional leaders who go to the
White House regularly have a
dual function to interpret the
views of members Of Congress
to the President, as well as to
bring back the administrators
viewpoint. And he added that
President Eisenhower has shown
a real desire to get the viewpoints
in Congress.
AS he prepared to leave for
the West Coast, Senator Know
land said that there are only two
developments that could bring
Congress back for a special ses-
sion before January. One would
be an unfavorable September
tax collection. The only other
thing likely to produce a special
session would be a "worsening
of the international situation. -
"If the Korean truce should
break down or aggression break
out at some new point, I think
there is no question but that
Congress would be called back, "

OF Speculation Over
Successor 10 Taft

The name of DR.. Arthur S.
Flemming, director of the Office
of Defense Mobilization, was the
feature of political speculation
today over a successor to the
Senator Taft, Republican. of
Ohio.
Gov. Frank Lausche, a Demo-
crat, will appoint Senator Taft's
successor to serve until a special
election in November, 1854.
There were strong indications
today that Representative Ben
der, Republican, of Ohio, may
seek the seat in that election.
Served Under Both Parties.
DR.. Flemming is listed as a
Republican in the 1928
who's Who" He has held a
number of Federal and State
offices under both parties, and
served for many years as a Re-
publican member of the Civil
Service Commission in Washing
ton. He has never held elective
public office.
The report that Gov. Lausche
would appoint him first ap-
peared in the Middletown (Ohio)
Journal. DR.. Flemming said in
Washington that he had not
discussed the matter with the
Governor and does not now
have any plans to run for Sena-
tor in 1854.
Gov. LauSche, attending the
Governors Conference in Seattle,
declined to comment.
Representative Bender, who
now represents Ohio's 23d dis
trict, has been in Congress con-
tinuously since 1888 with the
exception of one term, the 81st
Congress in 1949-50. Six of his
terms were as congressman-at-
large. Prior to that he was a
State Senator for five terms.
Predict He'll Seek Seat.
Political and personal friends
predicted freely that the Con-
gresham will run for the Taft
seat. They described him IAN
almost certain candidate" They
say his past record in State
politics has made his name
familiar to the voters.
In Washington, Mr.. Bender
would say only: II have no
statement to make at this time"
Meanwhile, a move in the
Ohio State Legislature to pass a
law requiring the Governor to
appoint a Republican and STEP
ping up the primary date to No
vember of this year apparently
has collapsed. Legislative lead
ers repeatedly were fearful of
adverse public reaction.

Taft Act Message

gerty said the staff was far
from completing work of draft
ing proposed Taft Hartley
changes, and he indicated fur
ther efforts to get the message
to the Capitol were postponed
out of difference to the memory
of Senator Taft, co-author of
the labor law.
The last word came yesterday
from Senator Smith, Republican,
OF New Jersey, chairman of the
Senate Labor Committee. He
came out of another conference
at the White House to say that
nothing in the form of a state
ment on Taft-Hartley from the
President would be ready before
mid-September, at the earliest.
In the last few days, mean
while, at least two publications
have printed a full-text draft
of a presidential message to
Congress suggesting 19 changes
in the labor law. Some changes
would have been made, but this
draft is substantially what Gen.
Eisenhower would have recon-
mended to Congress had not
the decision been made to kill
the whole project.
Wreck of Act Seen.
Nearly all of the 10 changes
would have eased restrictions
imposed on labor unions by the
Taft-Hartley Act. A manage
ment adviser who was instru-
mental in drafting the law said
the changes would have "gutted"
the act. Another industry spokes-
man said the proposed draft
would have done credit to Harry
Truman in his palmiest days"
"The whole tone was wrong"
he added.
The draft would have lifted
most restrictions on union boy
colts, legalied the closed shop in
some industries, made more su-
pervisory personnel eligible for
union membership and, among
many other things. given the
Federal law precedence over the
much more strict State labor
laws.
The mystery is: Who sold the
White House on the program?
Best guess it that it was Secre-
tary of Labor Durkin, who favorS
making far more sweeping
changes in Taft-Hartley than
any other official.
The pro-labor message is dead,
but very much alive all over
town is full-scale investiga-
ton aimed at finding out who
"leaked" to the press the draft
of a confidential" White House
paper.

with criticism or confuse him by
pointing out how he could have
played the last hand better. It
is interesting to note this treat
ment not only adds points to
Mr.. Abel'S score-but to Mr..
Dale's as well.
In today'S deal Mrs. Keen led
the queen of clubs and Mr.. Abel
scanned the dummy before play
ing.
i He saw no losers in spades,
none in clubs and none in hearts
There was only one loser in dia-
mondS if Mr.. HeinSite had the
ace or queen and Mr.. Abel could
guess which.
While wondering how he would
play the diamonds, Mr.. Abel
remembered a favorite saying
Of Mr.. Dale's: Don't become so
fascinated with the play of one
suit you forget about the Others"
So he looked at the other suits.
It wasn't very likely, but the ten
of hearts might solve his prob
lens.
He won the first trick in dunn
my with the ace of clubs. He
cashed the king and ace of
spades, then the king Of hearts.
Now, entering his hand with
the king of clubs he caShed the
ace of hearts. When he led a
third heart and ruffed in dummy,
Mrs. Keen'S queen dropped.
He had discarded diamond
from the board on the ace of
hearts. It wasn't simple now to
re-enter his hand with a trump,
lead the good ten of hearts and
discard second diamond from
dummy. After this he conceded
q hand trick and spread the
hand.

Just leading the jack of dia-
monds and letting it ride" said
Mr.. Heinsite.

who had the queen" replied Mr..

Revenge Anna Pavlova,
the great Russian ballet
dancer, was a fury when
aroused. One day, while on
tour in this country, she
quarreled with her ballet
partner. That night he de-
cided to get his revenge.
At one point during the
performance, she was to
make a leap and land in his
arms. AS she left the floor,
her partner. instead Of pre-
pairing for the catch. calmly
folded his arms. Pavlova
came down with a crash.
The curtain was immedi-
ately rung down, and the
theater manager appeared.
Ladies and gentlemen"
he announced, due to a
circumstance beyond our
control, the performance
will not continue. However,
a movie will be shown in
stead"
The curtain went up, and
a picture was flashed on the
screen. The audience, still
murmuring, settled back.
Suddenly a blood-curdling
shrek brought them to their
feet. From out the wings
dashed the ballet partner,
pursued by the enraged Paw
Iowa, who was brandishing a
club. The two ran round and
round the screen with Paw
Iowa trying desperately to
land a telling blow.

be done by the mere inclusion of

case Delaware might be said to be
in the position of barely holding
its own. We as citizens cannot
afford merely to maintain our pres
ent program Of education in the
light of the exacting demands which
are being made by society upon

Concerning adult education, DR..
Miller stated that, at is difficult
to understand why no provision

of it's State program in this par
ticular area, and through the serv-
ices of this Department we have
been able to build UP a unique con-
/ ference on citizenship. Without any
funds for these services, the State
of Delaware will be doing nothing
for the many adult citizens who
are now in the State and the many
hundreds who are expected in the
near future"

ed out, ct is my personal feeling
/ that, so long as the State requires
4 teachers to renew their certificates

land/or other means, the State has
an obligation to assist the teachers
in-service in the meeting of the

Consistent with our plans for
the upgrading Of the teaching level
in the State is the request for in
service training funds. This serv-
ice would be given not only to
