The agreement—subject to rati- j fication of the union's locals by! July 1 after approval by the union's Policy Board—provides that the In creases be retroactive to June 11,j dale of an original 6 per cent offer made by Westinghouse. More Than 20 Plants Involved. The 70,000 employes work in more than 20 plants where the union holds bargaining rights. Announcement of the agreement by W. O. Lippman, Westinghouse vice president, and James J. Matles, Electrical Workers’ representative, ended months of negotiations. It provides hourly employes with increases ranging from 9 to 16 cents per hour, plus an additional paid holiday — Washington’s Birthday — making a total of seven paid holi days. Salaried workers earning up to $625 a month would receive the 8 per cent increase, plus >-i cent per hour additional to compensate them for the new paid holiday granted hourly paid workers. Effective Until April, 1950. On June 11, Westinghouse offered a 6 per cent increase to the electric j workers, the Federation of Westing- 1 house Independent Salaried Unions and the AFL-International Brother hood of Electrical Workers. The latter two represent about 10,000 employes. A company spokesman said the 8 per cent agreement applies only to the electric workers. Under the ! agreement, which runs until April f, 1950, the union may reopen negotia tions once this year to negotiate wages and salaries.

June 21 (NANAY— The French colonial administration j ■ is launching a determined effort to wipe out cannibalism in French Equatorial Africa, according to a Brazzaville dispatch to Aftonbladet of Stockholm, and is imposing hard labor penalties for offenders. The two developments prompting this renewed drive are: 1. Vote bv the Fourth Republic of a new criminal code proclaiming ! among other things that “trade in ; human flesh, its sale or use is pun | ishable by forced labor," similarly i “he who takes part in sale, pur : chase or exchange of human bones or addicts himself to magic, witch-; I craft or charlatanism * * *” 2, Recent discovery of a huge stack of human bones in a quarry a few miles from Brazzaville, evi dently the remains of cannibal feasts since the marrow bones were 1 all carefully broken. Threats of direct penalties, the : Swedish reporter comments, have had to be widened to break the hold of witch doctors who enjoy a free supply of meat by promoting; annual. human-sacrifice rituals toi "appease the gods.” Anri because! the natives consider these sacrifices; necessary they fear the results of dcnouncing'witch doctors. Chile reports finding estimated i reserves of 2,000,000 tons of 33 per i cent borax. ADVERTISEMENT.

Weary Capitol Force Cleans Up Litter Left by Wearier Congress Capitol employes today wearily cleaned up the litter left by bleary eyed Senate and House members as they struggled to the end of the 80th Congress yesterday. “We really had a busy time.” said a member of the Senate cleaning force that came on at midnight and had the Senate chamber back in something approaching order by 8 a.m. today. Piles of discarded papers ana trash of every sort had been left behind as Senators trudged home yesterday morning after their sec ond longest continuous meeting on record. The 80th Congress passed into history when the Senate adjourned at 7:i4 am. after having been in session for 44 hours and 15 minutes. Phe House had quit at 6:55 a m., after 20 hours and 55 minutes. The Senate fell nearly 10 hours short of the endurance record of 54 hours and 10 minutes it set in 1915. In the effort to complete action on key issues, signals from Re publican leaders changed almost by the minute in long closing hours as a murky dawn caught the law makers still at their desks yester day morning. Democrats taunted the Republi cans for their scrambling in both Senate and House. Senate Minority Leader Barkley, a slow speaker with a barbed wit, summed up Dem ocratic taunts when he said “the Republican moguls in Philadelphia sent word down here not to adjourn without passing farm and housing bills.” A compromise farm bill finally was passed, but the Senate and House leaders could not get to gether on a comprehensive housing bill. “In all my years in the Senate,” Senator Barkley said. "I have never seen such utter chaos and confusion in the closing hours of any Con gress. “We've been here for 40 hours with constant promises of confer ences always on the verge of doing something. In one room, conferees are talking about a long-range farm bill. They might give birth at any moment. In another obstet rical ward they are talking about giving birth to a housing bill.” Senator Barkley added that It KSfeeilOBIG* \ Delicious Drinks [.six flavors AT GROCERS' iKoolAidy GAS RANGES MatfAC GJtejj When baying from us, there Is the single responsibility of deliver ing and installing.

Moo rc St CH«srnut 2800 • Houts 9-5.30 Party all reminded him of a quotation: "O tempora, O mores—Oh hell.” In all the confusion over the housing bill. Senator Barkley said he was reminded that a long time ago an English king had shouted “a horse, a horse, my kingdom for a horse.” Now, he added, he could imagine Senator Taft, Speaker Martin and other Republican leaders saying “a house, a house, my can didacy for a house.” mis sauies were greeted Dy laugn-, ter from both the floor and the; galleries which by that time—after 3 a.m. Sunday—were thinning out after being packed for many hours earlier. House galleries were filled almost to the end. Adjournment had been put off from hour to hour throughout Satur day night, while Senate and House Republican leaders met frequently in Speaker Martin’s office. Compromise bills were written in cloakrooms. Democrats protested in vain that they could not even see copies of some of the bills that were being passed, but the Republicans had the votes to put them through. Most of the Senate and House members napped in rooms and cor-j ridors near the chambers. Some brought in cots from their homes. Several slept in their seats. But calls for a vote could bring them quickly on the job. _j 1 Espotabs Ho Misty Tnl« « T«bl«t Form « E«y to T«li« in new modern coaches THE JEFFERSONIAN All Stats Rtstrvtd All-Coach Streamliner Lv.
