Coe to Speak in Forum
Commissioner of Patents to Tell
Of Inventive Genius in Defense

CONWAY P. Coe. United States
commissioner of patents, will discuss
the role of the inventor in the de-
fense program in the National Radio
Forum at 9 pm. tomorrow. The Ma
tional Radio Forum is arranged by
The Star and broadcast over the
network of the National Broadcast
ing Co. It will be heard locally over
Station WMAL.
Superiority in weapons and equip
ment explains, in part, the successes
won by the Nazis during the first
two years of the war. In building
his military machine Hitler has
made full use of modern inventions
and chronological developments. IL
Illustrations in point are the Nazl
tanks and PanZer divisions.
In his address tomorrow Mr.. Coe
will outline the steps taken by the
Federal Government to mobilize the
inventive genius of the American
people in the war to defeat Hitler.
In his opinion, American inventors
will play an important part in Sc
curing final victory for the democ-
racies by providing military weapons
better and more effective than those
of the Axis

u. ). Follows Pattern
OF Dictator Economy,
0'Mahoney Warns
Says Depriving Civilians
Of Needed Materials
Undermines Morale

Warning that the United States is
following the economic pattern
drawn by the dictators, Senator
O'Mahoney. Democrat, of Wyoming
charged last night that civilian sup
ply is being subordinated and re-
strictive program applied to civilian
industry "in a manner that threat
ems the reduction Of civilian living
standards"
The danger to local economic ac-
tiyity and TO civilian industry was
recognized. he declared when the
President established o. P. A. c. S.
under Leon Henderson to balance
the defense effort with civilian in
dustry
This was sound and enlight-
ened program Senator OMahonev
declared, but it is not being carried
out"
Holds Contract Office Failure.
In An address delivered over the
red network OF the National Broad
casting Co. the legislator declared
that the new o. P. M. agency, the
Office of Contract Distribution,
which was established to distribute
defense contracts to little business
organizations throughout the coun-
try. would not meet the problem be-
cause thousands of industrial plants
cannot possibly reorganze for de-
fense production.
Forecasting grave implications for
the maintenance of American mo-
rale," he said this Nation is depend
ing upon the destruction of civilian
morale in Italy, Japan and Ger
many. He pointed out that there
Is general rejoicing at word that the
people in aggressor countries are
turning against their dictators be-
cause Of their inability to obtain
the commodities they were accus-
toned to in civilian life.
And then" he said, I'VE go about
creating exactly the same condition
here by unnecessarily depriving our
civilian economy of the materials
which it needs. We are permitting
our civilian morale to be under
mined. We are inviting imitation and
we are threatening the American
/ standard of living because. in this
/ defense effort, We are following the
pattern drawn by the dictators in
stead Of creating a democratic pat
/ tern of Our own
Wants Balanced Production.
Instead Of Transforming this coun-
try's economy into a military one,
which. suppresses civilian industry
in order to concentrate on the pro-
duction of military goods, attention
should be given to the capacity OF
America to produce what Is needed
for both military and civilian pur-
poses, he said.
Il would give every defense con-
tractor all the raw materials which
that contractor can use within any
reasonable period" he continued
but civilian industry should not be
deprived Of the materials it needs
by permitting the accumulation OF
materials which defense contractors
cannot possibly use for a year
or more"
He pointed out that he had intro
duced a bill now pending before the

Dr.. SteeIman Hoping
For Mine Agreement
Without His Vote
Conci|iotor, Picked by
Secretary Perkins, Has
Had Unusual Success

One sure bet about the three
member board arbitrating the cap
tive coal mine dispute is that DR..
John R. Steelman, public represent
ative on the body and generally con-
Sidered the KEY man, will cast the
deciding vote only as last resort.
And, those familiar with DR.. Steel
mans record as director of the
Labor Department Cancellation Serv-
ice will tell you that there's fair
chance that the boards decision
will be unanimous.
DR.. Steelman is a great believer
in, and ardent practitioner Of, the
philosophy that the best way to
settle a dispute is to obtain vol
untary agreement between the
parties concerned. There's nothing
he'd like better than to have Ben
jamin Fairless, president of United
States Steel Corp, and John L.
Lewis, president of the United Mine
| Workers, come to terms of their own
accord.
In fact, if it were not for the
:
idential request that he serve on
the three-man board. 1t is doubtful
if DR.. Steelman would agree to sit
in on a case in which both sides
consented in advance to accept the
boards decision whatever it might
be.
You can't decree cooperation"
/ Nv
lators. You can't do it any more
than you can legislate peace or
prescribe harmony"
DR.. Steelman, who was awarded a
Phi. D. degree by the University of
North Carolina in 1928, has had
remarkable success in getting labor
cooperation without decree, indus
trial peace without legislation, and
employe-employer harmony without
prescription
He started thinking about labor
problems while he was working his
way through five colleges after a
boyhood on an Arkansas farm He
worked in wheat fields and logging
camps to pay his tuition. He served
in the World War, later went back
to school for A. M. and Phi. B. de-
! greeS from Vanderbilt University
He studied year at Harvard Uni
versity. Then he Joined the faculty
/ of Alabama College, Montevallo,
Ala, as professor of sociology and
economics, in 1928
That he did a lot Of thinking on
| labor problems is shown by the i'm
preston he made on Secretary of
Labor Perkins when she went to
Alabama College to make a speech
in 1884.
They discussed the problem Of
solving labor disputes at length, and
shortly after Miss Perkins returned
to Washington she summoned DR..
Steelman to the Capital as a trouble
shooter in the Labor Departments
Cancellation Service.
For 18 months he attained impress
sive results in controversies in SO
States. For year he was a special
assistant to the Secretary of Labor
In 1887 he was promoted to the di-
rectCrShip of the conciliation service.
Through his hands have gone pre-
liminary negotiations on most of
the big labor disputes that have
; reached the Defense Mediation
Board and the White House. The
order setting up the Mediation
Board directed that 1t should re-
ceive only cases which the Concilia-
tion Service had been unable to
| steer to settlement

WASHINGTON, JAN 81 No.
body paid much attention to Rex
Tugwell's return to New Deal job
but the job itself could turn into
one of the administrations far
reaching experiments.
TugWell who is chairman of the
New York City Planning commits
sion, is serving without pay as spe-
cial adviser to Secretary Ickes. He
is heading up a group that will
have to decide how to put into ef-
feet a law which will change the
whole economic foundations of the
island of Puerto Rico.
Back in 1900, Puerto Rico passed
o law forbidding any corporation
to own or control more than 500
acres of land. The law had no
teeth and never was enforced. Un-
der Ickes' guidance, however, an
enforcement act was adopted in
1885. and this law has finally been
upheld by the supreme court. The
island government, with Ickes' aid,
is now moving to enforce it.
This could turn Puerto Rico up
side down. Upward of 100000 acres
of land in huge sugar plantations
could be broken up. One suggestion
is to parcel such land out in small
tracts for family-sized farming.
This, of course. would shift the is
land away from its present one
crop dependence on sugar and
would constitute about the biggest
experiment in land-use planning
the government has ever under
taken. p.
Tugwelrs committee, which in
cludes Ben Cohen, is made up
chiefly of experts from the Agricul-
ture and Interior Departments. 1t
is now beginning to make prelim-
mary surveys. and will go to the
island late in February, probably
for a two-month stay, to figure
cut the speed with which enforce
ment of the law should proceed,
what indemnity should be paid
the dispossessed corporations, the
size of the farm parcels that should
be established and so on.
MORE
WORRIES
Congress is already beginning to
worry about what will happen
when the program is completed and
the enormous stream of govern
ment spending dries up. There is
now pending in the house and SEN
ate legislation introduced by Con-
gresham Voorhis and Senator
Wagner to set up . post-emergen-
cy economic advisory commission"
to look into the problem.
This commission would be made
up Of three senators, three con-
gressmen. and six representatives
