e NIGHT FINAL SPORTS 2-X . Lee and 0'Mahoney Defend Amendments In Price-Control Bill Call Farm Bloc Changes Aid to War Production; Compromise Sought (Earlier Story on Page A-15.) BY the Associated Press. Senators Lee, Democrat, of Oklahoma and O’Mahoney, Dem- ocrat, of Wyoming contended on the Senate floor today that Sen- ate amendments written into the price-control bill at the behest of farm bloc members would help rather than hinder the war ef- fort if they became law. ‘The discussion was touched off by Benator Lee, who sald newspaper reports indicated that a joint House- Senate committee, seeking a com- promise version of the bill, had about decided to abandon an amendment by Senator O'Mahoney to permit farm price ceilings to rise with urban wages. Senator Lee contended the O'Ma- honey amendment was “necessary to maintain and increase produc- tion.” “For the Government to allow a fair price for agricultural commodi- ties,” he said,” will not only not, hinder the war effort but will ac- tually help it. “The O'Mahoney amendment, if agreed to, will help win the war.” He added that parity prices as now defined, based on 1909-191 levels, did not constitute a fair re- | turn for the farm. Senator O'Mahoney said the pur- pose of the Senate farm amend- ments was “to help the Administra- tion increase the production of agricultural products and thereby increase the supply.” “It is well known,” he added, “that when the supply is increased there is very little chance of an increase in prices.” Hetch Hetchy Power Sale \ meeting of American Ministers.

Mr. Vinson said the measure ‘would require those organizations to report information on their offiy clals, activities and financial condi- tion. Providing penalties ranging up to & maximum fine of $5,000 or a year’s imprisonment, the bill was in- troduced as an aftermath of the Naval Affairs Committee's report on its investigation of shipbuilding contracts, industrial profits and union finances. Mr. Vinson contended the legis- lation would provide protection to the members of the affected organ- izations and to the public against misuse of funds, and would “compel disclosure of the activities of various pressure groups seeking to influence legislation.” The bill specifically would apply to two types of organizations. A “labor organization,” Mr. Vinson de- | fined in the bill as a person, un-" incorporated association, committee | or federation or any organization which represents one or more work- | ers for collective bargaining.

But we do believe that since racing has such a definite recreational value it can be continued despite the war. “We are co-operating with the defense effort to the fullest extent and naturally if the Army asks us to call off any particular meeting it will be called off instantly and with a cheerful spirit.” | D.

President Roosevelt in a letter to Chairman Robinson of the House Public Lands Committee today op- posed amendment of the Raker Act to permit sale of Hetch Hetchy power to private companies. Mr. Robinson said the President, in the letter, declared San Francisco had violated terms of the Hetch | Hetchy grant for more than a generation and the people of San Francisco had not received the benefits on the great project that Congress expected them to get. “It appears that you are being | asked to suspend or delete that con- | dition so that the present illegal arrangement for disposing of Hetch Hetchy power continue,” Mr. Robin- son said the letter continued. “I said some months ago that no prudent Congress and no prudent administration would be willing to amend the Raker Act for this pur- pose,” the letter continued. “Noth- ing that has been shown me since 1 made that statement would lead me to alter my conclusion. I am confident that a feasible solution of the problem will be worked out, within the framework of the ‘exist- ing law 50 as to maintain the wise policy of conserving the resources of the national parks for the people.” Representative Mott, Republican, of Oregon told the committee he deemed the President’s action in ad- dressing a congressional committee which was considering proposed legislation was improper, but said | that generally he agreed with the | views expressed by the Executive, Viereck Asks Court For Change of Venue A change of venue because of alleged “inflamed” public sentiment was sought in District Court today for George Sylvester Viereck, in- dicted Nazi agent booked for tri Fobrahcy & for trial Defense Counsel Emil Morosini of New York sought to have the trial removed from Washington or post- poned until public sentiment will allow the defendant “some measure of a fair trial” Also flled with Justice T, Alan | Goldsborough was & motion for re- | argument of the defense petition to suppress evidence allegedly seized by F. B. I, agents when they ar- rested Viereck in New York and searched his apartment and office. Justice Goldsborough, who has eliminated himself as trial judge in the case, granted the Treargument petition and set the hearing for 10 o'clock Thursday before either Jus- tice F. Dickinson Letts or Justice James W. Morris. Previously Justice Goldsborough had denied the de- fense plea to suppress the evidence, Viereck was indicted for alleged failure to file with the State De- partment a complete statement of his activities as a representative of the German Government,. In regard to the change of venue plea, District Courts have held re- cently, particularly in criminal assault cases, that contentions that public opinion was “inflamed“ had no substance in fact and that spe- cific evidence of prejudice was lacking.

The law permits plants doing de- fense work to charge off 20 per cent yearly of the cost of new machinery, it they obtain certificates showing that the costs are not cared for in the price of the articles made by the machinery and sold to the Government. | | Commutation to Life Urged for Slayer, 16 BY the Associated Press.
