Over Sessions Mixup Special to Central Press @ WASHINGTON—Senate Democrats, now in the minority, are chuckling at the troubles of their Republican colleagues and wielding the “needle” whenever possible to point up their mistakes. The GOP scheduling of Senate sessions was a case in point. First the Republican leaders announced that the reorganization act ideas. would be closely adhered to by having Senate session’ only on aa and Friday, with committee meetings the he things began to pile up on the new leaders. They decided to have night sessions Monday and Wednesday. Many senators showed signs of not liking that too much. When the Greek-Turkish aid issue came to congressional attention, the program really hit a log jam. The GOP Jeaders went into another huddie, came up with a recommendation for meetings six days a week, and night sessions as necessary. AU along, the Democrats on the sidelines have been saying, “when are you going to make up ~ your minds?” _ To cap everything, the Republicans recessed the Senate over the first weekend under their : on program without calling a Saturday session. eG @ PRESIDENT TRUMAN’S popular reception in. Mexico has caused gvome Latin and South American diplomats. to welcome any plans ‘the chief executive may have to visit other countries ‘south of the _ border.” Diplomatic circles second the acclaim of Mexicans who put their friendship on a personal basis in shouting “Viva Arrita.” They feel that his personal charm, simplicity and self-effacement did more to further the “Good Neighbor” policy than all the solemn pronouncements of State department officials. Mr. Truman's trip to Mexico was made, more or léss, on the spur of the moment and it isn’t known whether he contemplates any more sojourns to Latin or South American Republics. But there is a feeling in Washington diplomatic quarters that he could climb into the “Sacred Cow” and fly southward to any one of the countries and be just as well received as he was in Mexico. ae a * s Eo a @ LOOK FOR A “TOUGH” BILL to come out of the House labor om on gece -_ to the peceral of a much more restrictive jure than one now ng considered by th nmi — sg by the Senate labor The legislation will go much further than any other labor bill mh Congress since the advént of the New Deal.

That would really be something!
When you think of how terrific our Fourth celebrations are already, alternating between the two towns, you ¢an imagine what a state-wide wallop JOINT celebration would pack, from the tourist-publicity point of view. : Ever since I returned to this area last May, I’ve had the conviction that the ‘real future to be promoted was as a tourist center.
