"Inasmuch as all sides are asking

He had reference to the fact that.
while the Connally and Ball bills

Senator Maloney, Democrat, of

100000 Expected
To Lose Jobs in
Defense Shift
Sovines & Loan League
Hears Pleas for U. S.
Employment Aid
BY the Associated Press.


CORAL GABLES, Fla, Dec. S.
Predictions that about 100000
Americans will lose their jobs during
the next year because Of the shift
in industry to defense purposes were
made yesterday before the United
States Savings and Loan League.
Several economists who took part
in the leagues panel discussion
agreed that the 1000 900 figure was
about right, and all urged that the
Government take immediate steps
to assist workers in non-defense
plants to find jobs in armament
factories.
DR.. Ray B. Westerfeld. professor
of political economy at Yale Univer-
sity. asserted that price control
efforts would not be effective under
the present setup, partially because
of what he described as "a lack of
confidence on the part Of business
men in the personnel slated to head
the program"
Westerfeld added that in his
opinion the Nations entire economy
would have to be placed under q
system of drastic rationing, such as
that now used in Great Britain.
Earlier, the delegates heard Mayor
Roy Lecraw of Atlanta describe Fed
eral housing projects as communistic
enterprises and that occupants know
they are receiving a direct subsidy
which is weakening their char
acters and initiative and sounding
the death-knell for their individ-
uality."
An opposing view was presented
by George M. Conner. economic ad-
wiser to the Anti-Trus Division, De-
partment Of Justice.

British Claim 500 Toll of Axis
Ships Taking Supplies to Libyo

in the Central Mediterranean, most
of them loaded with gasoline, am
munitions and supplies, is steadily
boosting the percentage OF Axis
losses. he added.
He told correspondents he thought
the Germans would probably never
get the use of the French fleet.
Il don't know what the morale
of the French feet is now but they
haven't had much sea time and a
sailor who doesn't go to sea isn't
much use. There is always the pos
sibility the French. however, under
a certain amount of coercion and
threats, might be stimulated to fight
against us.
1T is obvious that use OF the
French fleet would be great help
to the Germans. Seapower is one
of the biggest factors OF this war
and if the Nazis get the use OF the
French warships, naturally it would
to some extent be prejudicial to our
interests"

County Must Approve
War Building Roads,
U. 5. Official Says
Arlington Boord Still
Hopes to Get Alternate
Route to Save Hotel
Earlier Story on Page A-1.)

Approval of the Arlington County
Board will be needed before plans
for a 15-mile system of highways
to serve the new War Department
Building in Arlington County can
be carried to completion, Joseph
Barnett, principal highway design
engineer of the Public Roads Ad-
ministration, said today.
Speaking at a meeting of the
Board of Trades Highway Commit
tee. Mr.. Barnett said preliminary
work, already under way, could con-
tinue, but that the $1,000 900 project
could not be completed as planned
until the County Board gives its
approval.
He explained the boards sane
ton would be needed for closing GER
tain streets and for other operations
vital to completion of the system.
Apartment Project Involved.
The board so far has withheld its
approval because of difference be-
tween Arlington and Federal Off
cials over the proposed routing of
part of the Alexandria bypass route,
which bisects a tract on Arlington
Ridge road near Columbia pike, for
which a 100000 apartment-hotel
has been approved. County officials
have been trying to have the by
pass relocated so that the apart
ment-hotel could be built.
Arlington County Manager F1Vnk
C. Hanrahan. guest at the meet
ing. told reporters that Arlington
planning officials still believe the
alternate route they suggested could
be substituted for the route pro-
vided in the plan and thus avoid the
property where the hotel would be
built.
I'VE don't want to be placed in
the position Of fighting the Govern
ment," Mr.. Hanrahan sa6 u But We
feel that the plans are n vet final
and that provision still can be made
to save the apartment-hotel prop
erty."
He said Arlington officials want
to give full cooperation to Federal
oficials and that they have hopes
Of having their alternate plan &C
cepted.
Projects Value Cited.
The county manager said he felt
the hotel means as much to the
District and to the Army and Navy
as it does TO the county or any one
else because Of the housing accom-
modations it would provide.
Earlier today. Public Roads Ad-
ministration officials explained they
had given careful consideration TO
the proposed relocation to avoid the
hotel property. but pointed out that
it is in direct line with the proposed
route skirting Alexandria. They said
they believed the large volume OF
traffic 1t would carry will justify the
most direct routing that can be
obtained.
