It is my intention to go back in business but it will
be only through the cooperation of you who owe me.
The fire that broke out in my place of business last
Monday morning cost me my entire life’s savings.

• PRESIDENT TRUMAN'S BREACH OF PRECEDENT in having
Fred M. Vinsqp sworn in as Chief Justice of the United States in
elaborate White House ceremonies has caused considerable com-
ment in court circles.
Ordinarily the oath is administered at the court in more solemn
ceremonies—usually by the senior Justice, in this case Hugo Black.
In Vinson’s case, however, the court was out of session and he
could hardly be sworn in there until Fall. With John Snyder as
Secretary of the Treasury, Vinson would have been on vacation with-
out pay.
As it is. he will be on vacation, but with a salary of $20,500 a year
as against the $15,000 paid a Cabinet member. The court itself does
not meet again until October.

BUFFALO, Wyo., (%P) — Roy
Wilson recognized a wheel he
saw rolling dewn a steep canyon
road in front of his truck and ,
jumped. It was a front wheel
from his own truck. A split
second latter, his load of legs
shifted and crushed the driver’s
cab.
I have never failed to favor you when you asked for
it... Now I need your help immediately. My accounts
are at my old stand and it will be a great favor to me
if you will call here and settle them as soon as possible.

• SOME ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS have been sounding out
labor on the idea of a “no-strike” pledge for the next year to enable
the country to obtain uninterrupted production needed to combat in-
flation.
Stabilization boss Bowles has had such talks with labor leaders
and they are continuing, but thus far nothing definite has material-
ized from them.
Labor observers seriously doubt that CIO President Philip Murray
or AFL Chief William Green could make such a pledge and make it
stick. * * *
• W1TH OPA AND THE DRAFT out of the way. Congress will turn
on the speed toward adjournment and may quit before the July 17-20
goal set by House and Senate leaders.
Members of Congress are anxious to get home for some political
fence-mending and their departure from Washington also may lead
to a summer vacation for President Truman' ,

Taylor relates that the law got after him for using a loud-speaker
attached to his automobile without a permit.
The Senator was unable to locate councilman so-and-so or the
mayor to obtain the permit and served notice on the local police chief
that he intended to deliver the address the following evening whether
or np.
“Unfortunately, my free-speech test never came off,” Taylor said.
“My car sprung a radiator leak and I had to cancel the talk.”

Talk around Washington is f .vartime OPA boss lacks sup-

Bowles, it is reported, would like to see meals, butter, fats and
oils on the ration lists again and—perhaps bread.
Meantime, the bc.irage laid dojvn by Bowles and other adminis-
tration leaders in behalf of price control apparently is having results.
Some Congressmen are easing up on their criticism of OPA for fear
their constituents may turn against them if prices skyrocket.

The present bill now is before the Senate Naval Affairs Committee
and probably will remain bottled up there for the summer.
All might have been well if the measure had merely gone before
ths Senate Military Affairs Committee, which endorsed it. However,
as a matter of courtesy, the Military Affairs group turned the legis-
lation over to the Naval Committee for hearings.
The Naval Affairs Committee sits in the shadow of the Admirals,
who are violently opposed to one department of National Defense.
Sen. Ellender (D) La., says he has enough votes to block action on
the merger at the present session of Congress. •
