TEETH EXTRACTED

The long debated, controversial
price control bill. as II passed the
House by a vote OF 224 10 l6l, had
its teeth extracted by a coalition
of Republicans and south er n
Democrats. placing IL in a form
which administration e A d g r S
termed ineffective.
Before sending the measure 10
the Senate, the House by voice
vote refused the provision permit
ting the price administrator TO
license business provision which
the administrator, Leon Hender-
son. has termed the backbone OF
enforcement of any price control. =
The House also refused TO re-
treat from provisions which limit
farm price ceilings at below
boom year provisions
which Henderson has said "virtu-
ally exempt agricultural products
from control.
GOVERNMENT POWER HIT
Likewise, the House drastically
restricted the governments power
t. buy and sell in the market,
which Henderson said was vital. "
The House also refused 10 write
any form of wage controls into the
measure, and voted to create a
five-man presidentially appointed
Senate-confiImed board of review
with power to veto any ceilings
imposed by the administrator.
As passed, the bill would estab-
lish q price administrator at Sl0,-
600 a year. appointed by the Presi-
dent and confirmed by the Senate.
The administrator, subject "a
overriding by the board OF review
would be empowered to place cell
ings on any industrial prices OF
rents in defense areas which he
found to be inflationary.
FARM PRICE RESTRICTION
He would not. however. be al
lowed to impose any ceilings on
farm prices al below 10 per cent
of parity. the prevailing price on
October I. or the 1919-1929 aver
age, whichever of those three al
derivatives was highest.
In computing ceilings for indus
trial prices, the administrator is
directed to give due considera-
ton" to the price of the commod-
ity between October ! and 10. but
he Is not bound TO SET them as of
those dates.
II a person feels he is injured
by any ceiling. he has right to
appeal TO the board of review. and
later. to the courts if the board
does not grant his plea.
