N.T. Man Admits Two Burglaries, One Entry Attempt

Two North Tonawanda burglar­ies and one attempted burglary were cleared up on New Year's Day when Chief Norris E. Gilles­pie obtained a confession from Merle Shively. 21, of 2161/2 Thompson St. that he had broken the window of an Oliver St. liquor store and stolen $47.94 worth of liquor.

At t h e ' s a m e time, Shively is said to have confessed breaking the window of the Schenck Sup­ply Company, 285 Schenck St., and taking two radios valued at 111.95 This was on Oct. 3. Shively also allegedly admitted an attempted entry into the Block Radio Store at 76 Main St. on Dec. 9.

The liquor store, which was burglarized at 1:45 a.m. New Year's Day, is located at 235 Oliver St. It is operated by Mrs. Emily Cataldo of 115 Roma St., Buffalo.

Chief Gillespie assigned Detec­tive Sgt. Emil Grzenkowski and Officer Joseph Rybacki to the case and they picked up Shively, whom, Chief Gillespie said, his depart­ment has had under surveillance for approximately six months. Af­ter questioning by the chief Shive­ly admitted the burglaries and led the officers to a cache of liquor be ­hind a grocery store in Oliver St. where the police recovered three bottles.

Shively did not say how he had disposed of the radios. Police will question him further while he is being held for the Grand Jury .

Shively aroused the suspicions of the police because '"no matter what happened around here in the last few months," according to the chief, "this fellow seemed to be in the vicinity." The chief described Shively as a laborer in the Durez plant.

Democratic 81 st Congress Opens Gates to Flood of Bills To Help Truman Keep Pledges

Washington (UP)—The 81st Congress convened at noon today with the Democratic leadership confident of enacting a Truman New Deal over the opposition of a wrangling Republican minority.

Back in political power for the first time in two years, the Democrats made their election victory official by installing their own Senate and House officers in place of the outgoing Republicans.

Then they opened the floodgates f to a big backlog of bills through which the Democrats hope to make good on the program on which President Truman led them to vic­tory last November.

But the lone member of the Am­erican Labor Party was among the first to introduce a bill i,n the House to carry out part of the Democratic platform.

Representatives Vito Marcan-tonio, ALP, of N. Y., introduced a bill for repeal of the Taft-Hart­ley Law. That was a key plank in the President's platform, along with higher taxes, expanded econ­omic controls, civil rights, and continuation of the cold war against Communism.

Arpther in the early rush of legislative proposals was the oft-defeated repealer of the tax on colored oleomargarine.

The most controversial item on the first day's agenda was a Dem­ocratic motion to curb the powers of the House Rules Committee, which often has been accused of throttling important legislation. It was slated for floor action around 2:30 p. m., EST.

House Republicans promised to fight i t , to the last ditch, and they hoped for enough support from southern Democrats to kill the mo­tion.

In the Senate, most of the open­ing fireworks were set'off by the Republicans and they appeared to be shooting at each other.

A smouldering rebellion of "progressive" Republican Senators against the Old Guard leadership of Ohio's Senator Robert A. Tal t broke into the open at a G.O.P. conference just before Congress convened.

The insurgents were soundly beaten. One of their number lelt the meeting acknowledging that "the Old Guard is in complete control."

But Senator Henry Cabot Ledge Jr., Mass., who wants to replace Mr. Taft as chairman of the Sen­ate G.O.P. Policy Committee, said he i s n t giving up.

President Truman fires his first shot of the 1949 legislative cam­paign Wednesday when h t will deliver his State of the Union Message to Congress, outlining in broad terms his overall recom­mendations.

He will spell out those recom­mendations in his Economic Re­port to Congress Friday and in his Budget Message next Monday.

Both chambers were in a holiday mood when the 81st Congress was gavelled to order. The galleries were jammed with visitors who applauded loudly at every oppor­tunity. %

G.O.P. Young Turks Beaten; Re-election Of Taft Foreseen

Washington (UP) — Repub­lican Senators battered down a "Young Turk" revolt today and cleared the way for the re-elec­tion c4 Senator Robert A. Taft of Ohio as heed of the Senate G.O.P. Policy Committee.

The actual election of Mr. T a j / and other Senate Republican pf-ficers was deferred until mid-afternoon.

Mr. Taft is a candidate for an­other term as chairman of the policy gioup. The insurgent "Young Turks" were backing Senator Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., of Massachusetts for the 30b.

The preliminary test came at a conference of the 42 Republican Senators who assembled three hours before-the Democratic-con­trolled 81st Congress convened.

On the key vote, the insur­gents were beaten, 29 to 13, on aa amendment to the rules of the Republican Conference. The rules wert revised to allow elected party officers to serve without j imit on their terms.

Under the present rules, and amendments sponsored by the insuigents. Mr. Taft would have been barred fiorn another term as policy chairman because he has served for years.

But as a concession to the in­surgents, the revised rules call for enlarging the present nine-mem­ber committee to 11 members.

The revised rules also call for Section of the policy chair-

,. oy the full conference. Here* tofore, the chairman has been elected by the Policy Committee, six of whose members were a p ­pointed by the conference chair­man.

The first protest heard from the "liberals" came from Sena­tor George Aiken, Republican, of Vermont. He left the conference complaining that "the Old Guard is in complete control" and tha4. the new policy committee would be "hand picked by the Old Guard."
