Administrator, or that Vice President
Wallace would come out and de-
nounce Secretary of Commerce Jones
as muddler and saboteur.
The resignation of Chester Davis
is serious blow to our war econ
omy. He is easily one of the ablest
men that the President has named
during the 10 years that he has been
in the White House. AS l recall, he
was the first Administrator of AAA
and resigned from the government
service because he did not approve
of things that were being done. He
later became governor of the Fed
eral Reserve for the ST. Louis dis
trict and very reluctantly resigned
that position to take over the thank
less job of War Food Administrator
at the insiStence of the President.
Mr.. Davis gave two reasons for his
resignation. He found that he didn't
have free hand and he doesn't be-
lieve in subsidies and rollbacks, both
of which the President considers es-
sential to controlling initiation.
The Wallace-Jones feud has been
brewing for long time and is of
little consequence 1t is generally
believed that the attacks on Jones
were inspired by some of the Presi-
dents closest advisers who seek to
force him out because he has on
a number of occasions stated that
he is opposed to fourth term. The
political hatchetmen who are after
his scalp will undoubtedly get it as
they are very close to the President
and the President has no love for
any man who cannot see the neces-
sity of fourth term.
Beat it if You Can.
Representative Albert j. Engel
(R.), of Michigan, continues to rem
der effective service to the nation by
exposing glaring examples of Ad-
ministration waste. On Tuesday of
last week he told the House how
machine-gun assemblers in the ma
TONS war plants receive from 81, ZOO
to $8,740 year while American
fighting men must do the same work,
learning even to take down and as
semble their weapons blindfolded,
for as little as $50 month base pay.
Girls, 18 years old, who were dime
store ribbon clerks few months ago,
are now getting SOS week as weld
ers after two to six weeks exper-
ience, which is at the rate of SO $50
Askov American., 1943-07-08

year, or more than the $4,000 an
nual base pay of an army major.
Mr.. Engel recited an instance where
an assistant foreman in government
arsenal was recently offered $11,5OO
year to go to work for another
plant. General Marshall, army chief
of staff; General Douglas Macarthur
and General Dwight Eisenhower each
receive $1,000 year less than that
offer.
''The public is informed that we
are spending three, four or FIVE bill
lion dollars, or more, month and
the public takes it for granted that
we are making great progress" Rep
resentative Engel told the House.
'This not only discourages economy
but actually encourages waste. The
more a department or service can
spend, the more credit it is given"
Fast Work.
Congress is capable of moving at
great speed once it becomes deeply
stirred. Never has there been bet
ter example of this than when both
bodies moved to override the Presi-
dents veto of the Connally-Smith
anti-strike bill on last Friday, the
whole thing taking less than three
hours. In the Senate the vote was
56-to-25 and in the House the score
registered 244-to-1O8, nine more than
the necessary two-thirds. This is
said to be the first instance in the
history of the republic that Con-
gress has overridden a presidential
veto in time of war.
There is little doubt that the over
riding of the veto will have political
repercussions. Some astute observers
have expressed the opinion that as
a result the President will not be
candidate for a fourth term: then
there are number of cases of Sen
ators and Representatives who will
feel the wrath of labor leaders in the
next campaign. Indeed, the Amer
ican Federationist warned Congress
men: 1--WE shall endeavor to vote out
of office any member of Congress
who supports this BILL
Labor leaders may not approve this
legislation but the rank and file
should do so because it restores to
them control over their own unions.
It IS not generally known that there
are unions that have not held an
election in 18 or 20 years, and while
millions of dollars have been COL
lected in dues, no accounting is made.
The new law provides for 30-day
cooling off period and referendum
by secret ballot under government
supervision on all proposals to strike.
It also requires accounting of dues
collected and elections at regular
periods Statements that the new
law places organized labor in strait
jacket are just so much poppycock.
Presidential Veto Sustained.
The action of the President in Veto
ing the bill to extend the life of the
Commodity Credit Corporation was
anticipated. The veto message came
to the House last Friday afternoon,
accompanied by stinging veto mes
sage which was sustained by vote
of 154 to 228, we lacking two votes
Askov American., 1943-07-08

of commanding the necessary two
thirds to override the veto.
The bill as it passed Congress
would have prohibited the payment
of roll-backs and subsidies on agri-
cultural commodities. 1t also con-
tanned rather severe restrictions on
how the President could spend the
money. The borrowing power of the
Commodity Credit Corporation was
increased in the bill from 1850 mil
lion dollars to 3,4OO million dollars.
The President had no objection to
the increase but he did seriously
object to being restricted in the
spending, which is an old Roosevelt
weakness.
AS this is written, it is uncertain
whether resolution extending the
life of the present law will be acted
upon before the Congressional recess
sets in. AS the matter now stands
the responsibility for controlling in

Martin Asks PASSAGE
Of Pay-as-you-Go Tax
Before Easter Recess
Bloc of 40 Democrats
Forms Behind Drive
For Immediate Action
BY the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
House Minority Leader Martin
called today for passage of pay
as-you-go tax legislation before
the start fthe congressional
Easter recess, scheduled to begin
April II.
IF we do that" he told the
House, I'VE will find out that
we'll be welcome when we go
back home"
Earlier, bloc of Democrats had
formed behind the drive for tmme-
diate reconsideration of pay-as-you-
go tax legislation.
Majority Leader Mccormack yes
terday expressed hope the House
soon might vote again on the knotty
issue.
Approximately 40 Democrats
signed letter addressed to Chair
man Doughton requesting that the
Ways and Means Committee bring
new tax measure into the House
at once. More signatures are being
sought
The Democrats apparently aimed
at passage of a bill embracing a 20
per cent withholding levy against
the taxable portions of wages and
salaries, and the abatement of a
substantial part, but not all, of one
years taxes to ease transition to a
current nayment baSis
COP Also Demands Action, q
Other Republicans also demanded
quick reconsideration of a pay-as-
Eou-go tax plan, with Representative
Woodruff of Michigan, a Ways and
Means member, telling the House
American taxpayers are beginning
to burn with indignation over the
threatened delay now being voiced
by administration leaders-or some
of them-in devising a tax bill
which will embrace current pay
ment features"
Mr.. Doughton, returning from a
five-day rest on his North Carolina
farm, told newspapermen he would
submit the Democrats letter to the
committee "and if the members
want to put pay-as-you-go ahead of
other pressing matters that's all
right with me-"
When the House last week voted
down the Ruml plan to skip an in
come tax year and tossed all pay
as-you-go legislation back to the
committee, Mr.. Doughton said pay
as-you-go legislation probably would
not be considered again until late
spring or summer.

crat, of New Mexico gave this list of
the first to sign the letter to Mr.
Doughton:
