PITTENGER
SAYS
BY Rep. william A. Pittenger.

During the recess in August, I was
back in the Eighth district, and dis
cussed our domestic and foreign prob
lens with as many people as possible.
Returned to Washington on August 81
to be present for a vote on the bill
giving soldiers, sailors, and marines a
right to an absentee voters's ballot in
November.
Legislation to check living costs
Since my return, no more important
legislation has come before Congress
than the bill to prevent imitation. 1t
is otherwise known as the Price Con-
troll Bill. 1t became law Friday, Oct.
2. No one can question the dangers
and menace of imitation to the Amer
lean people In my opinion, President
Roosevelt has ample authority to act
under the War Emergency legislation
passed several months ago. However,
he asked for more legislation, and he
got it. There can be no question about
administration officials now having
authority to check living costs Un-
fortunately, this does not mean that
the question is settled. We may have
a repetition of the mis-management
and mistakes that resulted in the
freezing of automobiles, tires, etc, in
connection with the production of
synthetic rubber, which is still a mess,
unless the new rubber administrator
can correct the mistakes of the past.
1t is not pleasant to say these things,
but I have pointed out before, we
must have the most capable men in
America for leadership in administra-
tive positions We can lose the world
war at home by wrong domestic poll
cies and procedures, and by faulty and
childish methods of carrying out de-
tails of laws passed by Congress. So,
the new Price Control Act is not 60
ing to work unless experienced busi-
ness men administer it.
Food shortage and farm help: We
can almost say that we have a food
shortage NOW, instead of saying we
are going to have one. Responsibility
for this unpleasant result rests square
ly upon the Department of Agricul-
ture. Shortage of farm help is due to
many factors, but responsible govern
ment officials are not doing what they
can to meet the situation. There ap-
pears to be a difference of opinion
among three of the government
agencies involved. The War Man
Power Commission headed by Paul
McNutt, the Department of Agricul-
ture, headed by Claude Wickard, and
the Selective Service System, with
General Lewis B. Hershey as its Di-
rector, are the three departments in
volved. They ought to get together.
From various sections of the district,
get letters telling me that essen
tial farm help is being taken under
the draft regulations. These letters
point out actual facts, and challenge
serious consideration.
Take one example, widow writes
me that she has three boys in service
and two more subject to draft. She
has asked that one of the remaining
boys be exempt so there can be some
one to operate the farm. Her request
has been denied by the authorities.
Such procedure is absolutely wrong.
Any person with slight intelligence
knows, (and the big shots ought to
realize IT'D that if this policy con-
tinues, there is not going to be enough
food to feed the people in our towns,
villages, and cities.

WHAT MINNESOTA
EDITORS SAY

Virginia Enterprise-Why is it that
so many politicians of certain kind
yap about the "inequities" of the
Minnesota homestead lien law, when
just a little investigation of its work.
ings reveals no one injured, and the
foreclosure provisions of the act
exercised in but inc case in the entire
state? The law has been on the
books for a number of years, and it
has tended to make some people
honest who would otherwise have been
perfectly willing that general society
should carry and care for their kin.
and they well able to provide an
aged father or mother with home and
living. 1t must be that those who
want the law repealed are irked be-
cause present circumstances stop
them from foisting their parents on
the taxpayers. If all of the people
were so minded and unwilling to dis
charge simple duty and debt to the
generation which reared them and
gave them well-being, then there
would be no such thing as public
bounty for anyone, no matter how
deserving. When you hear the tear
jerkers talking adversely about the
lien law, check their statements.
Mist likely, they will be wrong, very
wrong.
Long Prairie Leader-Something the
people cannot nderstand-requeSt by
some bureau down in Washington that
Henry j. Kaiser, west coast ship
builder be indicted for going into the
market and paying more than ceiling
prices to get steel he needs for the
ships he is building on war orders.
We think he ought to be given a
medal. Kaiser, who has aStoniShed the
country by devising ways and means
of building cargo ships in less than

years, is one of the men who Is help

SCOTS at red tape to get materials de-
layed by bureau bungling, an effort

st. James Plaindealer-The news
papers of this country do more free
work for the government than any
other branch of industry. Advertising
is the stock in trade of newspapers
but they are willing to donate many
millions of dollars of space, and other
millions of dollars of service. When
grocer, clothier, foundry, telephone
company furnish merchandise to the
government they are paid for it. But
newspapers are asked for and ex-
pected to furnish their advertising
space without a cent of compensation
And they do it beyond means ot
measuring.

State Departments request for
explanation of the battleship
Dunkerque's return to Toulon-a
step taken in spite Of agreements
that we would be informed be-
forehand Of her movements-the
ships never left the United
States.
The arguments of French
diplomats that We were playing
into Nazi hands by giving the i'm
preston that we were attempt
ing to starve the French popula-
ton no longer impressed the
State Department. which ordered
all shipments to territories under
Vichy's control stopped.
Whether the same policy will
apply to Martinique and Guade-
loupe is uncertain. The French
authorities in those islands. and
especially Admiral Henri Robert,
who commands the three ship
fleet in the West Indies, have
hitherto been cooperative. But
there are growing indications
that German submarines oper-
ating in Caribbean waters now
may be sneaking into Martinque's
ports for supplies and especially
information, despite the vigilance
maintained by American consuls
and naval officers whom Admiral
Robert has permitted to reside
in various sections of the islands.
