ManpoWer-Paul McNutt.

1t is a depressing list. These are the
big jobs, involving immense respon--
sibilities; requiring great executive
ability and carrying great power. And
these are the men who hold them
There isn't first-class administrator
in the lot. There isn't a man with
any business experience. There isn't
one, with the exception Of Mr.. McNutt
tn" Indiana politician, who became
Governor of his State, who was ever
heard of before he came to Washing
ton to New Deal position.
Yet, these men WELD more power
over more people in America than any
public officials IN our hlStory.Uncount-
ed millions flow through their hands
and scores Of thousands OF employees
contend seriously that any one OF
. these men is the best available in the
United States for his job. The names
Of better equipped men will readily
occur. There is Mr.. Hoover There are
Mr.. Baruch, Mr.. Farley, Mr.. Alfred
Sloan, Mr.. John f. Hanes. Why are
not these-and others like them-in
key positions where their ability and
experience could be fully utilized?
Two reasons are given;frst because
they are not New Dealers; second, be
cause for the most of them the Pres
ident has a personal dislike IF there
are any other reasons men such as
those shouId hn ba,rnd from, poe+s +o
which they are so obviously fitted

New Dealers Are On Guard
W Washington, Dec. 10

Washington, Dec. 10.
With the naming of his two Indi-
ana friends - Mr.. Paul McNutt as
Manpower head and Mr.. Claude Wick
ard as Food Director-vanishes the
hope of those who felt that in filling
these important posts the President
would seize the opportunity to make
long-urged changes in his Cabinet
and bring into war management one
or two strong, new, able men calcu-
lated to increase competency and pro-
mote public confidence in the political
disinterestedness Of the Administra-
ton.
No one will argue that the McNutt-
Wickard selections do either. On the
contrary, they undoubtedly lend sub
stance to the charge made when the
war agencies were first set up that
the Administration was determined Il
keep the war management exclusively
in New Deal hands. 1t is unfortunate
that the President could not see his
way clear in his most recent appoint!
ments to disprove this charge, in.

In an interview with the editor
of the Victory Worker, Mr.. Flat
said:
Among the men i'm the ship
yards who will cast their votes at
the coming primaries are many of
my buddies with whom / fought
side by side under General Mac
Arthur in the 151st Light Field
Artillery, in the famous Rainbow

hearty greetings through the col

Submarine Freighters
Would Be Practical,
Says Inventor Lake

Submarine freighters, with ca
pacity to transport 1900 tons of
bulky supplies, and men, to fight
ing zones, could slip past Axis
submarines with utmost ease"
said Simon Lake, seventy-five year
old inventor Of underseas torpedo
boats, before a senate sub-com-
mittee.
"Shipyards could be converted
to building such submarines with
out any conversion, and they
would still have some steel left"
he said.
He declared that after the first
such ship was built, which might
take five or six months, later
models could be turned out at the
rate of one or two a day.

ducing vital equipment for the war
effort.
Realizing that these men are
deeply concerned with the char
acter Of men in office, in whose
hands lies the power to make civ
ilian life pleasurable for them, their
families and friends, l urge ship
workers to read carefully the
statements of candidates for Of
flee, and check against proven re-
ords, wherever possible.
IF such precautions are taken
by voters before elections, they
may then return to their jobs with
calm assurance that affairs Of
state will be handled efficiently by
men Of integrity"

In his prediction statement to
the Victory Worker, Mr.. Warner

candidate for the office of County

latter took office on January Is,

costs of operating the office for
that period was S75O,212, and fees
collected amounted to $3.50 9O2," he
said in an interview for the Victory
Worker. These figures prove that
the office is more than self-sup-
porting. I might also point out
that in the eight year period pre-
ceding, the returns were but S47,-
S87.
81 believe we have demonstrated
that the office can be managed
efficiently and economically, de-
spite the marked increase in the
volume of business that the office
is called upon to handle during
the war emergency.
This war emergency has also
imposed additional responsibilities
and as the wartime program pro-
crosses, 1 anticipate that our office
will be called upon to handle food
rationing and distribution.
THE cost of all this extra work
is being absorbed without mate

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-THE big.

the war today left the took market
relatively cold and leaders gen.
orally milled over downward course.
Wall Street was elated over the
blasting OF the japanese feet in the
Solomons, but buying laesitancy was
evident at the start. A little re-
straint was attributed to the worn
ing Of Secretary Knox that 1t was
only the second round and that a
decisive battle had yet to be fought.
Tax selling, while not particu-
larly impressive as yet, continued as
brake on bidders who inclined to
stand aside or limit commitments
on the idea that offerings from this
source might attain larger proper
tions In coming weeks and enable
them to purchase favorites as lower
levels. A string Of satisfactory divi-
dends also had scant effect on
stocks concerned. In addition, there
were reports of several large blocks
overhanging the market and this
tended to- promote conservatism.
Fractional advances were fairly

Dealings soon slowed and early
gains were wiped out and replaced
with declines in many cases. The
