WAGE, PRICE CONTROL BILL
NEARING APPROVAL IN HOUSE
WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.—(AP)—A bill giving Presi
dent Truman discretionary control powers over wages,
prices, rationing and credit was only a few short steps from
House approval today. /
| _Still to be settled before the bill goes to the Senate,
which starts debate on a similar measure today, is the ex
’ tent of authority the President would have to curb the
granting of credit and to control commodity market specu
lation.
’ Republcians and some Southern
Democrats want the credit powers
limited to real estate credit and
consumer credit, with business
| loans exempted. Yesterday they
put through an amendment em
bodying their views by a tentative
vote of 151 to 124, but administra
tion forces believed they could re
verse this on a roll-call count.
They want the credit controls to
be extensive.
Republicans also have pending
strongly-backed amendments to
limit real estate credit curbs to
the financing of new construction,
and to deny to the President the
power to control commodity mar
ket speculation. Most Democrats
are against-the GOP amendments.
Except for the extent of credit
provisions still to be decided, the
bill now follows the general lines
of legislation the President has
| said he would accept, even though
| it gives him more power than he

Compromise Made
Its more controversial wage and
price control provisions were ap
proved overwhelmingly after
Democrats and Republicans
worked out a compromise to break
a week-old House stalemate.
All the powers proposed for the
President would be discretionary—
he could use them or not use them
as he saw fit to cope with war
born inflationary trends.
He could:
1. Order rationing of almost any
thing at any time.
2. Channel scarce materials into
essential fields and order top pri
oritory for defense production.
3. Requisition for the govern
ment materials, supplies, equip
ment, or facilities needed for na
tional defense. Owners would be
entitled to just compensation and
would have first choice on regain
ing their property when the Gov-

The Allied gains on the south

Associated Press Correspondent
Tom Lambert reported advanced
units of the Army’s Fifth Regi

miles to join forces with the 35th
regimental combat team 12 miles
east of battered Chinju. That
closed the steel trap.
The link-up cut off an estimated
100 square miles of rugged land

In the fighting for Chinju, the
trapped battalions are estimated
to have been halved down to 1,000
from their original strength of
about 2,000.
ISRAEL LEFTIES PROTEST
BRITISH NAVAL VISIT
JERUSALEM— (AP) —Mapam,
the leftiest and pro-Communist
political party of Israel, bitterly
criticized in the Israeli parliament
here the recen!, courtesy visit to
Isreali’s ports by Admiral Sir
John Edelsten, commander-in
chief of the British Mediterranean
fleet.
Moshe Erem, a Mapam spokes
man, said the British navy “had
served as an instrument for the
immigrant huat and had block
aded the country during the stug
gle for liberation.”
Premier David Ben Gurion re
plied “we prefer to forget the past,
not only in our relations with
England, but also with all states
which in the past acted against
the Zionist movement.”

$2,000,000,000, to spur production
of needed things. ,
5. Put ceilings on wages and
prices and adjust them from time

Other Moves
In other moves linked to Com
munism and the Korean crisis:
1. The Senate Finance Commit
tee appeared about ready to vote
a $1,500,000,000 annual boost in
corporation taxes. That done, the
committee will turn to plans for
boosting individual income taxes
by $3,000,000,000 a year.
2. The Senate passed three in
ternal security . measures, includ
ing one that would bar from the
U. S. any suspected subversive
agent. Not even diplomats would
be exempt if they were so sus
pected.
In imposing price ceilings under
the House bill, the President would
have to consider livels that ex
isted in the period between May
24 and June 24 of this year. But
he would not have to stick to those
levels.
He could not stabilize wages or
salaries at rates lower than those
which prevailed during that
period. The House refused to.say
he couldn’t make them higher.

(AP)—An elderly woman from
Grinnell, Ta., was brutally choked
to death in her berth on the
Southern Pacific’'s Golden State
Limited early today as she register~
ed an assault attempt,
Sheriff 1. V. Pruitt of Cochise
county said Harold T. Lantz, 28,
a discharged railroad employe
from Tucson, had confessed the
slaying.
Victim of the murder was iden~
tified as Mrs. Ada C. Parks who
the sheriff estimated was between
60 and 70 years old.
Pruitt said the 180-pound Lantz
boarded the trgin at Bisbee. '
‘“He was bux;ning and had no
ticket,” the sheriff related.
Less than a half-hour later the
man ran screaming to the con
ductor that a woman had been
murdered.
“Lantz first told the conductor
a stranger had done the killing and
escaped,” Pruitt said. “Later he
told us that he did it.”

Malik out of the presidential chair.
If the <losed meeting fails to
move Malik, there may be other
consultations on a new procedural
step—but the speech-making is
certain, the U. S. source said.
: Lot of Speeches
" Some delegates were resigned to
a continuous verbal exchange until
September 1, when the British
delegate takes over the Council
presidency.
“We have lots more to say,” the
U. S. source asserted. “If Malik is
going to keep on making propa
ganda speeches, he is going to
have to listen to a lot of American
speeches, t 00.”
Other delegates, who have
chafed under Malik’s tactic of giv
ing himself the floor as Soviet del
egate whenever he wants to at
tack U. N. aid for South Korea,
are ready to swell the chorus.
Opening the oratory floodgates
cannot halt U. N. military action
underway since June. Speech
making will hold up attempts to
force Malik to allow South Korea’s
representative to take part in
Council sessions’ and a vote on a
pending U. S. proposal condemn
ing North Korea for its continued
disobedience of the U. N. rulings,
which Malik contends is illegal.
More verbal exchanges also will
hold up further action on Malik’s
insistence on seating Red Chipa or

LOS ANGELES.— (AP) —By
day, Peter Zeolla fashions fire~
places of marble for the homes of
the wealthy. By night the 52-year¥
old stone cutter relaxes with a
hobby—chipping stone.
His idea of resting is to fetch
his tools and chisel delicate de
signs on a rough slab of marble or
onyx. Handnrade ashtr?ys, book
ends and lamp stands are his
specialty. His latest creation: a
scale model of a C-47 twin-engin
ed transport plane fashioned out
of brittle onyx—even to the wings.
It took him two months to com
