Mr.. Landlord, however. was
not satisfied but that there had
been a hold up on IS million Of
the appropriation for naval ord
nance. He questioned whether
this amount had been diverted
to some other purpose.
Capt. Charles E. Briner. act

have no effect whatever in the
program for placing modern
weapons of war on Navy ships. ="
Beginning with the new fiscal

Capt. Briner attributed the
cutback partly to the Nays

older type weapons. Another
factor. he added. was a limi-

BokerUnion Defendants
Fail to Attend Own Trial

The Bakery Workers Union
scheduled a trial here today Of
its members who bolted to form
another organization. but none
of the defendants appeared.
The Bakery Workers. headed
by James G. Cross. have been
expelled from the AFL-CIO on
corruption charges. On the
heels Of expulsion came an
exodus Of members who organ
lied q new union. the American

larly called the ABC.
Today the old Bakery Work.
ers nucleus. still led by Mr.
Cross. was all set to try leaders
Of the revolt. There were a
number Of charges. mostly CEN
tering around desertion of the
union.
"No Need Now"
I'VE don't need TO be tried
now" said a spokesman for the
ABC. I'VE already have formed
our new union and have be-
come affiliated with the ALL
CLIO. We're the ones who are
in, and they are the ones who
are out. We ought to be trying
them"
The ABc. which includes
Washington Local ll8. has a
new headquarters at It'll Con-
necticut avenue. At the time
the trial was scheduled today

Of the foremost defendants,

Letter Quoted
The letter to which Mr.. Con-
way referred was addressed to
Peter H. Olson. acting inter-

A spokesman for Mr.. Cross

College Loans
Sought in Bill

The Federal Government
would offer colleges and hos
pitfalls an extra 81 billion in
loans for construction under a
bill Representative Rains plans
to introduce in the House
Monday.
Mr.. Rains, an Alabama
Democrat who is chairman of
the Housing Subcommittee,
said his bill would provide:
S400 million to build dormi-
tories and other housing for
students and faculty;
$500 million for class rooms.
laboratories and other college
facilities;
500 million for non-profit
hospitals to build housing for
interns and student nurses.
The loan program, Mr..
Rains said, would encourage
academic and scientific prog
ress," while helping to com
bat the recession and provide
Jobs for the unemployed"
He said his subcommittee
will take Up the bill, along with
other proposals. when it begins
general housing hearings next
month. The subcommittee
four other Democrats will CO.
sponsor the bill
The $500 million for con-
struction of class rooms and
facilities would establish a new
program Of long-term, low
interest loans. Other phases OF
the bill would expand existing
programs, which now place
ceilings of 1925 million on loans
for college dormitories and S25
million for housing interns and
student nurses.
A source on the Housing Sub
committee said these two pro-
grams soon will use up existing
authorizations, necessitating
the proposed additional lending
authority Of $500 million and
500 million, respectively.
Mr.. Rains bill is more
generous than a measure APP
proved by the Senate Housing
Subcommittee. The Senate bill
would provide loans of 1925
million for college housing, $3.50
million for classrooms and
other college facilities and SIS
million for housing interns and
student nurses.
