snagged today for the second
time in the House.

of objections by Representative
Gross, Republican of Ohio.
Mr.. Gross suggested that the
parking spaces could be pro-
vided on the vacant land that
Congress has acquired just east
Of the Cannon House Office
Building. There are proposals
to use this land for a Library
Of Congress Annex or a men,
orial to James Madison, or
some combination Of the two
projects.
The parking lot bill, which
came up under a consent cal

over without prejudice. The
same thing happend to the
bill two weeks ago when there
was an objection to the fact
that there was no ceiling on the
amount Of money for the lot.
Most of the property involved
In the bill is now used as q

Chances Called Dim
Rescue workers, hampered by
poor air and the possibility of
another cave-in, had said last
Tuesday that chances of
getting the men out safely
were dim.
Workers tried for several
hours shortly after the cave-in
to get into the deep sections
of the mine but found many
passages blocked by coal, rock
and debris. Water in the de-
bris also darkened hopes for
O rescue.
The mine has been reacti-
waited recently, after being
closed for some years because
of a poor coal market. The
reopening came about when
there was an increasing de-
mand for deep mine anthracite
coal.
Hopes were raised somewhat
Friday when mine inspectors

ment to watch over the leaking
tank car.
