Creates Split
Among Senate
GOP's, Democrats
Assail President
Capitol Hill, May 27. A fight
to the finish is developing in the
Senate over Mr. Truman's de
mands for emergency labor legis
lation. It has cut clean through
party lines with Republicans and
pro-labor Democrats lining up
side by side to defeat the "draft
or work" measure. During the
debate, Mr. Truman was ac
cused of bad faith and a "cheap
exhibition of ham acting" by Re
publican .Senator Morse of Ore
gon, and of "Fascism" by Demo
crat Sheridan Downey of Cali
fornia. Labor has lined up almost to
a man against the President's
program to ban strikes against
the government. William Green
of the AF of L denounced it as
"Fascist." And 300 CIO work
ers from New York made the
trip to Washington to lobby
against the measure.

Stassen Is Preferred
By Carolina Students
For Nexf President
i
Chapel Hill, May 27 (UP)
Don't bet your bottom dollar on
it but' the students at North
Carolina seem to favor former
Governor Stassen for the next
President, with Secretary of
State James F. Byrnes and Sec
retary of Commerce Henry A.
Wallace running right behind
him. At least that's the opinion
of the 1,157 students, veterans,
non-veterans and coeds, who an
swered the poll of the student
Tnfpmninnal Relations Club.
They also thought that the Unit
ed States should keep the Pacific
overwhelmingly for
a firmer policy with Russia, and
declared on a 6-to-5 margin that
tw hmitrht. this country should
keep the atom bomb secrets
rather than turning' them over
to U.N. Maybe the other three-
quarters of the -student ooay,
who didn't vote, think ditterent

Peggy Jurgensen, YMCA 's All-Around Girl,
Has Good Answer to Every Student Inquiry
By Posey Emerson
Amidst noting that Joe Col
lege had moved from Old East
to Steele, selling a few tickets to
the Junior-Senior dance, telling
a crestfallen junior that no cor
sages were allowed to be given
at dances, and locating a baby
sitter, Peggy Jurgensen man
aged to say that she thought
Carolina was a wonderful place.
Her official title is secretary
of the YMCA which is another
name for a Jack of all trades.
Recognition of her contributions
to campus life was made last
week when she was tapped by
the Valkyries as an honorary
member.
Mrs. Kai Jurgensen, wife of
