PROGRAM.
T To GO ON, SAYS
WH|TEHOUSE
No Change Contemplated,
President Indicates in Answer
To SWope Proposal

President Roosevelt will run the
MIRA and the NRA will continue
it's present supervisory position
over business for some time to
come, plans for business self-regu-
lation Notwithstanding it was APP
parent here today.
At the same time, the President
is interested in and pleased to see
the numerous plans for ultimate
regulation of the nations indus
trial and business Set-up by bust
ness and industry itself. He has
studied the Swope plan for self
regulation and business control
of the MIRA, and hopes to see de-
Velopment of many other such
proposals.
No Change for Present
For the present. however, Mr..
Roosevelt feels that the place for
MIRA authority is within the Fed
eral Government. When business
has advanced under that super
vision to a point where the Presl-
dent feels it is capable of running
itself, the Executive made it clear
here he would be only too glad
to entrust that job to it.
In line with the Presidents
thought that all plans such as
that suggested by SWope should
be gone over carefully, the Con-
sumer's Advisory Board has
created a committee to study the
latter. This committee will have
as a guide several requirements
which the advisory board set out
as basic necessities in any work
able program for industrial con-
troll. These we're:
|. There must be recognition
of three parties in industry
the consumer, labor and the
management and ownership
group.
2. The Government should at
all times be in an authoritative
position to impose checks and
balances so that none OF the
three parties in industry may
dominate anOther.
Planning Is Aim
3. Whenever the management
group is afforded relief from
regulating influences of compe-
tition in determining prices and
other vital matters. other par
ties to the bargain must be
equally strengthened.
The whole study plan OF the
new committee falls directly into
line with Mr.. Roseveit's known
policies of long term planning.
Generally speaking, the idea be-
hind the study is for a better I'M
derstanding of the problems in
volved in self-regulalion of bust
ness, with a view to an ultimate
permanent MIRA set-up. That is
a matter of months, if not years,
but the groundwork, nevertheless,
is being done now.

LOVE- INSPIRES
FLEET MOVE

Love and sentiment today was
advanced by the Administration
as among the principal reasons
why it intends to spend a million
dollars to bring the United States
fleet back to the Atlantic next
year.
Both at the White House and
the Navy Department it was
stated that one of the primary
factors in President Rosevelt's de-
cision to withdraw the fleet from
the Pacific for an Atlantic cruise
was the desire to enable officers
and men who are natives of the
East to see the wives and sweet
hearts from whom they have
been separated for nearly three
years.
The battle force, or Pacific
Fleet, which includes the battle
ships, heavy cruisers. and aircraft
carriers, has not been on the
East Coast since the summer of
1890. The scouting force, or At
lantic Fleet, has been away for
nearly two years.
Both forces have been sta
toned in Pacific waters since
March, 1882, when trouble began
in the Far East.
Other factors responsible for
the change were the desire Of
President Roosevelt to make a
gesture of friendship toward
Japan and to enable the Navy to
increase it's navigation and cruis-
ing efficiency.
