Hull Assumes Power
Over All Federal Units
With Interests Abroad
Action Token in Step
To Coordinate Agencies;
Lehmon Opposition Seen

Secretary of State Hull has is
sued orders giving the State De-
partment supervisory authority
over the foreign activities of
every Government agency which
has interests in the foreign field
the Reconstruction Finance
Corp, Office of Economic War
fare, LeaSe-Lend Administration,
and the Office of Foreign Relief
and Rehabilitation Operations.
Director Herbert H. Lehman of the
Office of Foreign Relief and Re-
habilitation is expected to resist the
order, which is dated August 81.
The purpose of the order is said to
be twofold: First, to coordinate the
activities of agencies which in the
past have often clashed with each
other, and second, to center in Sec
retary Hull control over all under
takings in foreign affairs by the
American Government.
Mr.. Lehman is reported to have
understood when he was given the
post or relief director in the State
Department last December that he
would have almost autonomous
power. He has found himself pushed
aside by the Office of Economic War
fare and by AMG, both of which
have undertaken to plan the relief
of areas overseas wrested by the
Allies from the enemy, such as North
Africa and Sicily.
New power has been given within
the department to Thomas K. Fin
letter, deputy director of the de-
partment's Office of Foreign Eco
nomic Coordination, to work out a
program of relief and aid in terri
tories freed from the enemy. The
relief program has been developing
slowly because Assistant Secretary
of State Acheson. in charge of for
eign economic coordination, has
different views from Mr.. Finletter
about the nature of the program for
the freed territories.

Representative SABBATH, Democrat.

Once that objective has been ac-
complished, our policy will be to

quest by Mr.. SABBATH, chairman of

creased"

that restaurant prices were from so
to rs cents higher an order than six
