kind of patriotic sacrifice he believes
desirable is found, Mr.. Kilday said,
in the case of Undersecretary OF
War Robert P. Patterson.
In a recent letter to Mr.. Patter-
son, Mr.. Kilday wrote: You have
made the greatest sacrifice of which
I have been informed in connection
with the present emergency. All
men eligible therefore covet a place
upon so important court as the
United States Circuit Court of Ap-
peals. 1t has many attractions-po-
sition, respect and prestige, to say
nothing of life tenure. You gave
UP all of this with practically no
opportunity of regaining the same,
in order that you might be of serv-
Ice to your country in these trying

Profits on Defense
Work for S1-a-Year
Officials AssaiIed
KiIdoy Declares 1t Hurts
Morale; Pays Tribute
To Patterson

The practice of dollar-a-yea- Gov
eminent officials receiving salaries
or substantial dividends from COM
panies prof1ting from defense con-
tracts was assailed last night by
Representative Kilday, Democrat, of
Texas.
"I do not question the motives of
any of the individuals concerned"
said Mr.. Kilday, a member OF the
House Military Affairs Committee,
"but such a practice is not conducive
to the high morale and public conf
dence that the American people
must have in regard to the entire
national defense program.
Mr. Kilday said he realized that
only industry could furnish many Of
the experienced and specially trained
men needed in the Nations pre-
paredness efforts. But" he added,
there should be no grounds for any
doubt that these men serve their
country through pure motives of
patriotism"
Sacrifices Involved.
He pointed out that for defense
executives on leave of absence from
private concerns to deny themselves
salaries or substantial dividends
from those concerns necessarily
would involve financial sacrifice in
many cases. For even if they re-
ceive Government salaries, he said,
those salaries probably would be
much less than the normal income.
THE fact remains, however" Mr..
Kilday declared, that the motives
OF defense officials must be sufh-
ciently patriotic to cause them to
sacrifice financial profit that might
be theirs through their companies
Government contracts"
