Republican hacking for the price and wage stabilization bill became apparent in the senate yesterday but farm bloc members considered renewing their fight for a new farm parity formula despite President Roosevelt disapproval A caucus of 23 Republican senators resulted in an announcement that they unanimously agreed the bill had been substantially improved by amendments in the banking committee hut several indicated they definitely would support the measure when it reaches the floor Monday. Republican Leader Mc-Nary of Oregon told newspaper men he was inclined to support it, reserving the right to vote for some amendments. abor Cost in Formula Senator Bankhead "I) -Ala) was Undecided whether to press for floor consideration of his amendment revising the parity formula to include me cos! ot tarm labor. I he committee rejected the proposal Friday. The existing parity formula does not take the farmer's cost of production into direct account.

It establishes a ratio between the price of 1 tie things the farmer grows and the things be has to buy. based on the relationship which existed in the IWiH-U period Bankhead contended that the farmer was the only producer whose prices were set without reference to his labor costs He proposed a 4 fi percent upward revision of the parity base to cover those costs. He emphasized that even so. the labor of the farmer and his family would not he taken into account. Leaders of farm organizations conferred with Bankhead and other farm state senators yesterday but were not in agreement on whether the Bankhead formula went far enough.

An agriculture subcommittee will meet Mondav morning before debate opens to consider pos sible amendments Expert to Meet Deadline Meanwhile the house rule.s committee will decide Monday on the procedure to be followed in considering the anti-inflation measure in that chamber, starting Tuesday. Leaders in both senate and house expected to pass their respective bills by the end of the week and to be able to adjust any differences and complete congressional action by the Oct. 1 deadline set by the president. Extended debate may result in the senate from another Bankhead proposal, accepted by the banking committee, establishing a floor of 90 percent of parity under important farm commodities thru government loans The present loan rate is 85 percent Senator Taft iR-O) declared the amendment was counter to Ihe general aim of the bill and would force prices upward. Senator Danaher estimated it would raise the cost of food bv about Sfifi.OOO.OOO a year.

Other senators indicated they would insist on a more specific directive to the president concerning wage levels. They talked of attempting to restore an amendment Jejected by the committee which would establish as a guide the "little steel" wage formula which provided for increases of not more than 15 percent over the Jan. 1, 1941, level to match higher living cosls.

New Lexington To Be Launched WASHINGTON (Pi The new aircraft carrier Lexington, replacing the one hich was sunk last May in the Battle of tin- Coral sea. will be launched next Saturday one year ahead of schedule, the navy announced yesterday. The Lexington will be the second carrier launched since Pearl Harbor The Essex, prototype of a new class to which the Lexington belongs, entered the water at Newport News, Va July 31 It will be some months, however, before these two new "flat-tops" can bp cnmplptely fitted out and ready to join the fleet. The new Lexington will be launched at the Bethlehem Steel corporations Fore river plant at Quincy, Mass.

Mrs. Theodore Douglas Robinson, who christened the other Lexington 17 years ago in the same yard, will give the new ship ils name. She is the widow of a late assistant secretary of the navy. The navy, racing in secrecy to build the world's biggest and hardest hitting fleet of carriers, has made public little data on Essex class vessels Janes Fighting Ships says they displace around 25.000 tons, cost about SfiO.OOO.OOO and have a complement of more than 80 planes and 2.00(1 officers and men. Speed, a prime essential of an aircraft carrier, was listed as 35 knots.

Eight Essex ships were ordered in 1940 and Ihe Lexington, first of those being built at Quincy, had not been due off the ways until the fall ot 1943. But the need for them'now is great and officials have promised I here would be no delay in getting them into action as soon as possible. The navy, fighting an aircraft carrier war with Japan, has lost two of the carriers with which it entered the war the Lexington in the Coral sea and the Vorktown at Midwayand has five left: the Saratoga. Enterprise. Wasp, Hornet and Ranger In addition there are whatever carriers may have been developed by converting speedy merchant ships.

Shipping experts suggested vesterdav that the. best way to combat the new Nazi tactic of making prisoners of torpedoed ship captains was for the crews to play dumb when approached hy I -boat commanders Since June at least 11 captains of I'nited Nations vessels as well as some chief engineers hav been taken prisoners by the Germans. Berlin recently described this as a standing order to (Inman submarine commanders as substantiation of their sinking claims ('apt. II Martin, national vice president of the Masters.

Mates and Pilots association, outlined the suggested procedure: Just have the men tell the submarine commander that the captain is still aboard the ship -and don't let skippers wear uniform caps The advice alreailv has been followed succcssl ully in at least one case where the captain warned those in his lifeboat as the I'-boat hailed them. "When they askeil for me, I just wasn't there." he said. However, in some cases. Martin said, seamen, excited by the torpedoing, are likely to react immediately ith a pointed finger hen the U-boat politely asks for the captain.
