Senator Smith has said that
in the interest Of time. commit
tee consideration was limited to
proposals made by Gen. Eisen-
hover for revising Taft Hartley.
There were IA changes sug-

were incorporated In the bill

would repeal the Taft-Hartley
section which gives State laws
precedence over the Federal Law
in the matter of the union shop
Taft-Hartley permits the union
shop, which is prohibited under
the right-to-work laws.
Another amendment, intro
duced by Senator Ives, Republi-
can, of New York would allow the
National Labor Relations Board,
at its discretion, authority to
cede to the States Jurisdiction
over labor disputes even though
a case had an impact on inter-
state commerce.
The Ives amendment appar-
emily was designed as q substi-
tute for the controversial pro-
posal made by Senator Gold
water, Republican. of Arizona.
That amendment would give the
States very wide jurisdiction over
labor disputes and union ac-
tivitieS.
Senator Goldwater indicated
he was rewriting his amend
ment in an effort to make it
more acceptable. He said his
objective was to return labor
disputes to the community level

public scolding from the North

mander in Central. Europe, the

night.
The outspoken marshal told a

the proposed European Defense

1t supports without reservations,
would be too unwieldly and
should be replaced. Called on
the carpet by Premier Laniel to
explain his utterances. Marshal
JUN left the Premier and De-

ing for him. The cabinet subse-
quently dismissed the marshal
from the top posts Of adviser to

However, action could be delayed
ndefinitely through the intro
duction Of numerous amend

But insiders said the Republi-
can strategy would be to move
to table the civil rights amend

have plenty votes to do that.
The Republicans are willing
to table the politically explosive
amendments because there is a
separate civil rights bill on the

tion to table.

On Paraguay Revolt
BY the Assoeioted Press

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina,
May 6.-Paraguay was blanketed
under official silence today, but
unofficial reports trickled out
that Army elements had staged
a revolt against President Fed
erico Chaves' regime. It was un-
clear who held control.
Government radio stations in
Asuncion, the Paraguayan cap
ital, remained off the air, but
private sources gave varying ac-
counts of the revolt which ap-
parently broke out yesterday.
A private radio station said
loyal government forces sue
ceeded in quelling the revolt. It
added that Police Chief L. Petit
was killed in the fighting.
An account from Clorinda, on
the Argentine side of the Para
guayan border across from Asun-
cion, said the insurgents held
the capital. 1t said President
Chaves and his ministers had
taken refuge in Asuncion's mill
tary academy after the rebels
seized control of communica-
tions.
The Clorinda report said the
rebels had set up a three-man
government in the capital.
Other reports said several gov
ernment leaders were killed. in
fighting yesterday, including
Gen. Alfredo Stroesner, COM
of Paraguay's armed
forces. -.
These reports said a cavalry
division, about 500 men, had
spanked the revolt and that loyal
troops and police had rallied to
Mr.. Chaves' defense.
