JOHNSON RI v
AVOIDED BY
PRESIDENT
Executive Dodges Queries;
Holds Price Level Not Yet
High Enough

Did President Roosevelt hear
the slashing attack made upon
Father Coughlin and Senator
Huey Long? Or did he read the
newspaper accounts of the speech
of his former Blue Eagle COM
mander?
The President gave no indi.
cation of an answer at his press
conference today. Reporters
pressed the question on him twice
and all that transpired was that
famous President Roosevelt smile.
with several more wrinkles around
the eyes.
However, there are radio sets
in the White House. Also news
service tickerS. and the President
is an avid newspaper reader.
Higher Prices Needed
The President, however, did
make one definite statement in
answer to questions. 1t is clear
that the commodity price level
has not yet risen to a point
where stabilization of prices is
in sight.
The President said the dollar
is not yet back far enough on
the debt side, although the debt
burden has been enormously
relieved.
The President frequently has
used an illustration in which he
sets up two columns, one OF
assets, the other of debts. They
must bear a certain relationship
before stabilization of prices is
desirable. The debt column is
not yet low enough and the asset
column is too high for balanced
stabiliZation.
On food prices, reported to be
soaring, the President was not so
definite. Asked to comment on
these reports, he said his COM
ment would depend on the price
and the locality.
War Profit Data Received
President Roosevelt surprised his
interviewers today by stating that
the Baruch-J ohnson commission
had dug up an enormous mass OF
testimony, evidence, and data on
the general subject of taking the
profit out of war;" and had made
to him verbal report. The data
rest in the State Department and
will rest there until the President
desires to make them public.
All this relates to the fact that
several months ago President
Roosevelt stated to his press con-
ference that "the time has come
to take the profit out Of war"
Later he appointed Bernard
Baruch and Gen. Hugh johnson,
late of the NRA high command,
to find out certain facts and to
report.
Congress Active
Meantime, the Nye committee
has been turning up a mass Of
fact and opinion from the heads
Of munitions works, shipping
works, and allied activities, and
Chairman McSWain, of the Mill
tary Affairs Committee of the
House has introduced a bill to
draft industry in case of war.
The President refrained from
comment on the McSwain bill, but
his statement that the Baruch-
Johnson commission had reported
is the first word of that activity
since it started.
He explained also that the re-
ciprocal trade treaties now in proc
ess of negotiation, particularly the
one with Belgium, are somewhat
experimental. The idea, he said,
was to provide an interchange of
goods, lowering tariffs so as to
provide for the easiest possible
trade.
