darn good job. The news prepared
by his organization is supplied to
seven private short wave broadcasting
stations-six which broadcast to Eur
ope and one to Asia. These stations
can use, or not use, the news supplied
them; they are not compelled to send
it out. A checkup shows that about
rs percent of the news items supplied
by Donovan to these stations are

What the nazis particularly dislike
is when these short wave broadcasts

suckIna Social Security Changes

First opposition to the Presidents
plan to extend social security benefits
comes from the Minnesota Employers
Association.
In letter to the Minnesota delega
ton in congress last week, Charles
Hoffman, executive vice president OF
the association, writes:
Indications are that an attempt
will be made to increase payroll taxes
and extend social security coverage.
/. -. We urge you to view with sus-
pic1on any recommendations for
changes in the Social Security Act"
Plan of the administration is to ex-
tend unemployment compensation to
many workers not now covered by
the act, and to equalize old age as
sistance payments by increased fed
eral aid to those states unable to
maintain decent standards.
Current Capital Comment
There are several magazines and
newspapers definitely identified as or
gans Of nazi propaganda that have
been barred from the Canadian mails
which still are being delivered here
by Uncle Sans spokesman. The edi-
tors of these magazines and newspa-
pers generally get their instructions
direct from Berlin. George N.
Shuster, president of Hunter Collegef
challenges isolationist Senator Nye to
participate in on investigation of the
nazi menace to the United States 'un-
der objective auspices" :. The con-
sentative mind of the Herbert Hoover
era still persists. A poll just COM
pleted by Modern Industry" shows
that 80.6 percent Of its readers favor
returning relief to the states. Relief
was taken from the states when this
method broke down completely, but it
seems that some people never learn.
Brookings Institution has come
forward with aid to the fat boys by
publication of a pamphlet entitled,
"The Effects of the Defense Program
on Prices, Wages, and Profits" 1t
urges that farm prices and wages be
fixed, leaving it to taxation to take
care of profits. 1t lays chief respon-
sibility for high prices to increase in

have gone up substantially" Il

Kathryn Lewis May Leave
America First Committee
| Aftermath of a newspaper story i'm
plying that John L. Lewis was trying
through back door route, to get into
harmony with the policy of aiding
Britain and Russia, was a heated ar
gument last week between Lewis's
daughter Kathryn Lewis, and Will
Workers Federation, who is now in
this country with a British labor dele
cation.
Miss Lewis accused Lawther, a
rugged Welsh miner, of being the per-
son responsible for the newspaper
story. Lawther, in turn, spoke his
mind quite plainly about what he
thought of isolationism in general, and
Of the America First Committee in
particular, of which Miss Lewis is a
member.
Miss Lewis, this column learns,
wasn't at all proud of her America
First membership and indicated in no
indefinite language that she would
soon resign from America First. This
is in harmony with rumors in Wash
ington that Miss Lewis either has
resigned from the committee, and an
nouncement of the resignation with
held, or that she plans to tender her
resignation in the near future.
1t is generally understood that
Kathryn, as a member of America
First, really represents her father,
whose private secretary she is. Lewis
has been taking considerable heat
from certain groups in the G. I. o.
for his opposition to the Administra-
TONS foreign policy ever since Hitler
attacked Soviet Russia. Although he
signed the Wood-Hoover round rob-
in" declaring that the entrance of
Russia in the war showed that this
was not war for democracy, for
the past few months he has been dis
creetly silent on the subject. But
continued membership in
First has been interpreted
that he still was opposed to the Ad-
foreign policy.
But persons who have visited with
Lewis recently have brought back
word that he is slowly giving in to
pressure, and is just waiting for an
opportune moment to get Kathryn out
IT America First. They say he no
onger talks like an isolationist.
The choice for Lewis has been be-
ween becoming lone wolf" with |
most of his staunchest supporters de- |
'erting him because of his isolation
SIN, and retaining power by an about
ace on his stand on foreign policy.
It's mighty hard for a power-complex
Individual like Lewis to forsake
