Washington, D. C.
There are three distinct groups in
Washington all pulling in different
directions at price control legisla-
ton. There is a group which be-
lieves with Bernard Baruch that a
ceiling must be put on all prices and
wages. There is a group, represent
ed by Leon Henderson, price con-
troll administrator, which believes
that only those prices which show
signs Of getting out Of hand should
be controlled. There is. a third
group in congress which simply re-
fuses to take any action. These lat
ter are the ones who are RESPONSE
BILE for delaying consideration Of the
present bill which is widely criticized
by many in all three groups.
The result of these conflicting
groups is a growing fear that infa-
ton which cannot be checked will
! be upon us before we know it.
For a while it was thought that
the administration might follow
Canada's plan of price control
which is soon to be put into effect.
First, Canada tried a piece-meal
method, similar in some respects
to Mr.. Henderson's ideas. Then, in
asmuch as this did not work salts
f~actorily, ceilings on both prices
and wages were written into a new
plan which more nearly resembles
that supported by Mr.. Baruch's fol-
lowers.
Details of Britain's price control
policy we're recently reported by Of
fcials here and they reveal some
interesting theories of particular in
terest now. This policy may explain
why it is being said that some peo-
pie in Washington believe "a little
imitation is a good thing" in spite of
the dire warnings as to what will
happen if price rises are not
checked Immediately.
British bidding System
The British, it seems, have come
to the conclusion that freezing prices
and wages and profits just do not go
hand-in-hand with a maximum war
effort in a democracy. They say
frankly, You have to bid for a
maximum war effort" In other
words, you have to permit the work.
man to get bigger wages, you have
to give the farmer higher prices.
you have to offer industry a bigger
profit, if you expect a maximum eff
fort in the machine shop, in the field
and orchard, behind the desk.
Therefore, you have to follow a GER
tain amount of elasticity in prices
and wages and that means a
certain amount of imitation.
Equally frankly the British have
evolved this maxim: Building mo-
rale is just as important a. checking
imitation. You can give the work
man certain social advantages to
improve his morale, you can re-
| move some Of the business mans
restrictions-but you must also bid
for their services with something
more material-money.
When full war production is fully
achieved, when every human unit
and every piece of material which
is not actually needed for the mini
mum non-defense production is at
last being utilized in the var effort,
then prices can be frozen, the Brit
ish believe, and not before.
1t is perhaps this philosophy which
some of the administration leaders
have borrowed and which eventual
ly will be adopted by congress-if
it is not too late by the time con-
gress makes up its mind to act.

such gaudy little warriors as Jimmy
Wilde, Pancho Villa and Johnny
Buff.
The bantanfs did a lively and
profitable business in the time of

large. fighters must be big-the big
ger the better. That is why Mr..
Richard LemoS will have to do things
with a real bang to catch the at
tention of the world of which he is
champion.
For that matter. his debut seems
to have carried a pretty good bang.
The man he knocked out for the
title, Petey Scalzo, is better than
fair fighter. Mr. Scalzo was recog-
nized by the National Boxing Asso-
citation and, strange TO say, the
N. B. A. was right. What's more,
