President of Socony-Vacuum Co. attacks bill to separate production, refining, and transportation of oil products. Washington, D.C., June 21. John A. Brown, President [...] Socony-Vacuum Co. Inc., told a House Judiciary subcommittee today that a bill by Rep. Vincent [...] to 'divorce' production, refining, and transportation of petroleum products from the marketing of them was 'senseless.' The bill aimed at possible monopolies resulting from all units of distribution of petroleum products by one company. 'From the standpoint of the consumer and retailer, this proposal is a harmful and uneconomic infringement on the freedom of buying,' he said

NLRB general counsel defends board before House Labor Committee. Washington, D.C., May 31. Charles Fahy, general counsel for the National Labor Relations Board, told a House Committee on labor today that the Wagner Act procedure in labor trouble is 'fair, full, and sound.'

Hiwassee Dam and powerhouse. This plant is in a remote location and has relatively few visitors. The reception is correspondingly small. Its scheme of lighting may be noted. The round holes in the ceiling conceal "downlight" units which concentrate strong direct light on persons and objects from invisible sources. Background lighting is supplied from tubular units laid in coves along two sides of the room which throw light chiefly on the upper part of the walls and the light colored portion of the ceiling. Visible light fixtures are combined with air conditioning outlets and are decorative only. A large window along the left side of the room permits observation of the control room

Dams under construction. Watts Bar Dam, shown here under construction, has a semi-outdoors type powerhouse with an enormous gantry crane (to the right of the picture) for installation and removal of units. The project is further distinguished by a control building which is entirely removed from the hydro plant, being located some 120 feet higher on top of a steep cliff and with direct connection to the switchyard behind. The windowless left wing of the control building houses the control room; the tower-like structure in the back accomodates air conditioning, restrooms, etc. The glass wall, upper level, contains the reception room with a broad semi-circular overlook terrace, the story below the terrace devoted to offices

Twenty-seven Japanese veterans from tank units stationed on the neighboring island of Saipan during World War II (WWII) came to pay respects to fallen comrades during a 60th Anniversary reunion. These veterans had family and friends stationed on Guam, and they didn't learn of their fates for years following the war. They came today with their families to place flowers, burn incense, light candles and give prayers at Tarague Beach a sight of major conflict during the war.
