A PROSPEROUS CITY

One city. at least, in the United
States, is prospecting. With the new
crop OF alphabetical agencies, re-
calling those OF NRA days. Wash
ington is growing by leaps and
bounds.
The population, which was AGO.
900 during the early 1930s, was $685.
600 in the 1870 census. Thousands
OF workers have reported TO de-
tense jobs since that time.
During NRA days, the govern
ment employed between 10000 and
10000 workers. Today the figure
exceeds 10000 compared with =
World War high OF l17,760.
Defense agencies are OVERLOOKING
into new federal buildings designed
for other uses, hotels and apart
ment buildings, while building pro-
grams are being rushed TO keep
pace with emergency employment
demands.
Some of the new defense agen-
oies created since January Of this
year are known as the DEM, OPM,
OPACS and the NDMB.
OEM-the Office for Emergency
Management-is the overall paper
agency tying the presidential
executive offices 10 nearly a score
of separate divisions. 1t is under
the direction OF William H. Nc
Reynolds, administrative assistant
10 President Roosevelt.
The OPM-Office OF Production
Mansgement-under the direction
OF Director William S. Knudsen and
Co-director Sidney Hillman is
charged with accelerating produc-
ton rates OF war materials.
OPACS-Office of Price Admin
istration and Supply-has joined
the ranks to police the prices OF
commodities during the emergency
with powers to arrest unwarranted
price increases and intlationary
trends. Leon Henderson. an NRA
economist, heads OPACS.
NDMB-The National Defense
Mediation Board-was created by
executive order in March to I'M
tangle disputes IN defense indus
tries. DR.. c. A. Dykstra, former d.
rector OF the Selective Service sys-
tenn. is chairman.
Other alphabetical agencies will
be created soon to administer the
lend-lease program and the Civil
ian Defense Administration.
