WASHIN0TON-The good
people Of MiIlvilIe tpop. a.
OO0), way down in south CEN
troll New Jersey. paid honor the
other night to q locol boy who
hod mode good. His name was
Leon Henderson.
n the name doesn't mean
much to you now. scribble It
over your grocery list shopping
pod in the Kitchen, for the &C.
ton of the MillviIlites wos
prophetic. The foir name OF
Leon Henderson will be q
household word before many
more bottles ore fought in
Washington. and you wouldn't
wont to be tokine the name in
voin.
II 46-yeor-oId, Sworthmore
oroduote Henderson can keep
his boIonce, he stands today
the best chance in the world
Of being the Bernard Boruch of
the present war. He achieves
this potential stature by REQ
son Of his presidential appoint
ment as administrator of the
Office of Price Administration
ond Civilian Supply OPACS
for short-ond thot's another
word to scrowI on the wall.
MAKES NEW
DEAL HAPPY
New DeoIers in Washington
today are hoiIine the appoint
ment of Mr.. Henderson to this
high but obscure office as q
greet victory for their side in
the fight for power as to who
shall boss the defense effort
the New Dealers or Big Bust
ness.
Up to now, Big Business. os
personified by Knudsen, Big
gers, Nelson, Stettinius and
the doIIor-o-yeor men, have
been on top. Appointment Of
Henderson to head OPACS is
the first shoveIfuI in another
heop thot is probably destined
to be just os big as OPM, if
it doesn't actually come to
over-shodow it, which is the
better bet.
The authority with which
Mr.. Henderson's OPACS is fill
ed is tremendous. Without re-
peotine the long presidential
order erecting this new alpha
bette agency and studying it
closely. It is perhaps impossi-
BILE TO give any reoi erosp Of
what Henderson, OPACS and
company can do.
1t is. not too much to soy
thot this organization Procti-
coIly amounts to on economic
ministry with absolute control
over all prices on all supplies
and commodities from hot
soft mush to cold hard steel.
There hos never been anything
SO for reaching in this line in
American government. 1t is
therefore something to watch.
II may be around for q long
time, even otter the war is
over.
The governmental oroonizo-
ton theory is thot OPACS and

WEIGHING PAcT'S
vALUE-,-1N kAlLllGRAMs

tv =.
\ lot 81 very sooocious-sound.n9
sniecsxs have been written TO- weigh tne
worth ar the recent agreement oetween
Russio and Jopon.
Whot's needed to weigh the worm
of such a pact in Europe or As'o nowo.
dovs IS a jewelers. balances, win nice
calculations in milIioroms.
judging by the recent use OF me
Solemn pact" ond the pledged woro
az those in authority. they ore more
like bits Of propaganda and contt'ou-
tions to the war OF words than solemn
pledges to be odhered to.
lsit worth, for instance, as much as
.I,e poct of friendship signed between
Hunoory and Yueoslovio only tour
months before .Horthys ornies tell on
j prostrote Yueoslovio much as Musso-
Inns columns leoped upon Prostrote
France?
Is il worth as much as the non-o9-
preston treoty Russio hod with Po-
land. running until l945. which did not
prevent Russio's carving off her shore
81 Polond otter Hitler hod struck with
Russio,s blessing?
IS il worth as much os the JoPon-
cse agreement to the Five-Power Ireoty
which guaranteed the territorial inte9-
rity OF Chino?
Is il worth, as much as the 0ermon
non-oooression treaty with Denmark
sioned Moy 81, 1889?
Is il. worth as much as the ont-
Cominte.n agreement signed by Ser
many. ItoIy ond lnpon in 1896?
Al Ia short, is it worth anything at all!
r Suppose Gerr1ony and Russio found
themselves at war with one onother;
that Russio had lost the Ukraine and
IFS Block SEQ outlet, and was hord-
pressed? % you, or does anyone in Rus
sio, or ia Jopon, seriously think japan
would turn down thot golden opPortu-
nifty to settlewith Russio because OF the
treoty? Suppose japan overreoched
herself southword, and, getting into
trouble With Britoin, the Netherlands,
and possibly, the United Stotes, be9on
10 disinteqrote? Do you, or does anyone
il Russia OF Jopon believe that Russio
would restrain its noturo' inclination
70 settle Monchurion motters without
regard to this treoty?
Treaties ore worth what post per-
formonces indicates thot they moy be
worth. The record Of the post four or
five-yeors in Europe and Asio suggests
that they ore worth about q dime O
dozen.
Thot Is probobly what Angus Mac
donold, Conodion naval minister,
n,eont when he sold, I'VE took up
aims with greet reluctance. We shall
beor them with even greater firmness
We sholl not 10y them down until
honor walks the earth ogoin"
We ore still in an ero of cynicism
ushered in by ChoneelIor Bethmonn-
Hollweo Of Germany, who. in 1914,
could not believe thot Britoin proposed
llterolly to come to the old Of invaded
Belgium according to its treaty obIieo-
tions. "Whot! cried increduIous Beth
