NEW YORK, Nov. 28-District
Attorney Thomas E. Dewey made
routine announcement today that
he would return to the private prac-
tice Of law next year, but stirred
political speculation when he said

eminent, that is, how far and to
what extent the Finnish military
policy is one of combined operation
of the Germans and Firms vitally to
1nIure Great Britain and her aSso-
ciates and to threaten the northern
supply: lines over which Russia is
receiving supplies and assistance
frem Great Britain and the United
States, to aid Russia in resisting the
Hitler forces of invasion and con-
quest, and to what extent that Fin
nish policy is menace to all Amer
ica's aims for self-defense.
The recent journey of the Fin
nish Foreign Minister to Berlin to
join with Hitler's puppet govern
ments over Europe in signing the
'Anti-Comintern Pact used by Hit
Ter solely as an instrument to wage
a war Of conquest and domination
against free people, is highly signifi-
cant and cannot be camouflaged or
explained away by propaganda at
tacks on nations engaged in defend
ing themselves.
The secretary went on to say
that the department was giving
careful attention to all the reports
and information which might fur
nish definite answer to this ques-
ton.
United States Concern Made Clear.
The concern of this Government,
which has been emphasized by the
studies made by the War Depart
ment and the statement of the Sec
retary of War on November 25, as to
Finnish policy in this regard, has
been made abundantly clear to the
Finnish government, the secretary
said.
THE Secretary concluded by say
ing that every act of the Finnish
government since the delivery of its
note has confirmed our apprehen-
sions that it is fully cooperating
with the Hitler forces"
Minister Procope of Finland told
q press conference yesterday that
Finland had explained to the United
States 1t intended to fight in Rus
sian territory until Finland had a
defensive line-similar in principle
to the American outpost in Iceland
from which it could protect itself.
He said that Finland's adherence
to the anti-comintern pact climaxed
20 years of official Finnish antipathy
IN Communism. He would not saw
however, that Finland would stay
out of the Axis. He said only that
Finland has not joined the Axis.

Mr.. Dunn said for several days

Sunny skies were in prospect for

Meanwhile Alaska and North

Contractors Deny
Equipment Id|ed
On Ordnance Job
Some of Rented Machines

Senate Group Is Told
Earlier Story on Page A-D.


BY the Associated Press.
Contractors building the Govern
ment's shell-loading plant at Milan.
Tenn. produced affidavits today dis
putting charges of previous witnesses
that 35 pieces of equipment rented
for the project remained idle most
of the time.
A. Kingsley Ferguson, chief liaison
officer for the Ferguson-Oman Co.,
and Will R. Manner, Nashville, Tenn,
their attorney. appeared before the
Senate Defense Investigating Com
mittee to deny charges of waste and
extravaganza in construction of the
Wolf Creek Ordnance Plant.
Mr.. Ferguson and Mr.. Manner read
sffidavits which in some instances
directly disputed testimony of Philip
w. Harrison. formerly with the
equipment section of the Construct
ing QuartermaSter's Office at Milan,
that the Government paid fancy
rentals for equipment which was
little used.
Held standby" Machinery.
In other cases. the aff1davits de-
dom used as necessary standby"
machinery rented for protection
against possible emergency and
other equipment as material rented
before it was essential due to the
fear it might not be obtainable later
Mr.. Manner introduced an affidavit
from John H Taylor, superintendent
of transportation and equipment for
the contractors. saying Mr.. Harri-
sons services at the project were
terminated" because of his refusal
to comply with rules and regula-
tons
Mr. Taylor's statement said that
Mr.. Harrison had told the commit
tee a consolidating of truck pools in
one instance would have saved the
Government 100000, while the ac-
tual cost of the trucking involved
during the period involved was
s53687.
Says Statement Is Incorrect.
An affidavit of Wallace H. Faulk.
assistant general superintendent for
the contractors, described as "ab-
solutely incorrect a statement by
Mr. Harrison that one tractor re-
manned idle three months while rent
payments accumulated. Mr.. Faulk
said the tractor in question was used
IA hours day.
One grader which Harrison testi-
fed was idle so per cent of the
time, was described in an affidavit
by Mr.. Faux as a wet weather"
grader, rented for s55 a month,
which was essential for work to
proceed on rainy days.
Another tractor listed by Mr.. Har-
rison as idle 90 per cent of the time,
said an affidavit by Mr. Taylor, was
used six hours day by a crew
working only eight hours a day in
all
An electricity generating plant
about which Mr. Harrison testified,
Mr.. Ferguson told the committee,
was necessary to the project, both
as. a standby against electricity
charges during drought spells and
for the operation of electric ma
chimes used in making up payrolls

Difficulty Predicted
In Administering
Excess Profits Tax
Bur Association Clinic
Told Treasury Must
Maintain Standards

Fear that administration Of the
new excess profits tax will prove
to be the most difficult and unsatis-
factory task" ever undertaken by
the Internal Revenue Bureau was
expressed yesterday by James C.
Peacock, a former legislative drafts
man for congressional committees
and the Treasury.
Discussing the 1910 excess profits
tax at the 18th tax clinic, held at
the Mayhower Hotel by the taxation
section of the American Bar Asso-
citation, he declared that the Treas
ury, in its dealings with taxpayers,
cannot afford Ito fail in maintaining
standards of business conduct just
as high as those which the Depart
ment of Justice eXacts of taxpayers,
be they manufacturers or physicians
in their dealings with each other"
The meeting, presided over by
George M. Morris. was attended by
nearly 200 persons. In addition to
Mr.. Peacock the speakers were DR.

division of research and statistics of

cedure conforms to the basic re-
uuirements of the committees re-
concentrations" he said. The older
and wiser agencies have recognized
this fact. The Interstate COmmerce
Commission and the Board OF Tax
Appeals are supersensitive on ths
score of the impartiality of their
spirit, the completeness of the OPP
portunity for hearing, and the me-
ticulousness of their fact finding.
"Other agencies which we might
but do not name-have MADE
regulations of just the opposite SORT
and the result is that their lives
are a constant tempestuos confu-
sion. Some of them have required
reorganization and some have abb
solutely failed to achieve any sub
stantial part Of the objectives for
which they we're formed, merely be-
cause their procedural habits have
made the courts, the Congress and
the public believe that they were
not competent for great tasks
