made during the hearing on the bill
by Representative Sims TO give The
president power to take over All the

Secretary Baker said that unless

concerns are reluctant to enlarge
their plants to meet war needs be-
cause the great expense involved
would make a financial loss almost in

war period and after the war ended
would be useless.
