haven't been in any of them, and
there was no occasion for their play

Mcclellan Says Butler
Is 95% Wrong on Aid
To South America
BY ]. A. OIEARY.


Senator Butler, Republican, oi
Nebraska, was "95 per cent
wrong" in his recent claim that
the administration has spent at
least 100000 in South
America, Acting Chairman Nc
Kellar of the Senate Appropria
tions Committee charged today.
Taking the floor to reply to the
Nebraskan's criticism of boon
doggling" by dog gooders," Senator
McKellar said that in the past three
years total expenditures were ST.
426, 1922 900.
The bulk of this total, however,
was S1,102, ,637 900 for the purchase
of strategic materials and ships
needed in the war effort. and for
which this country received def
mite values, he said. This left total
actual expenditures in Latin Amer
lea at the relatively modest war fig-
ure of 1924, ,185 ,OOO."
Outlay Put at S324,185, 900.
/ so, instead of the six billion or
the eight billion as reported by Sem
ator Butler and his newspaper and
magazine friends as result of their
flying trip to various capitals of
Central and South America, we find
that these expenditures aggregated
only S324.l80,000," the Tennessean
declared.
Senator Mcclellan drew the con-
clusion that, after a flying trip of
/ SIS days and 10000 miles, Senator
Butler was IS per cent right and 95
per cent wrong in his figures
Il think he has been grossly and
grievously misled,' Senator Nc
Kellar added, referring to Senator
Butler
Il think he mas been, so to speak,
taken in and previously imposed
upon. AS to his report I shall
criticize very freely, but as to his
honesty and character 1 shall make
no aspersions
Loans Are Listed.
In addition to the cash eXpendi-
lures, Senator McKerar listed loans
by the Export Import Bank of S120,-
028,000 and by other agencies of
S536,000 This made grand total
of $1.547 1886, ,000 from which he de-
Quoted repayments and cash on ac-
count of lease LEND, leaving a net
spent of ST $4,000.
Senator McKellar sought to show
that even his 1924, ,l85 900 net figure,
outside of war supplies, is much
too high"
First, it includes S93 3,646 900 of
lease-lend transfers on which repay
ments of approximately $4,000, 900
are expected" he said. Secondly it
includes military and naval expendi-
lures of $1589 100000 of which $108,-
095, 900 was spent on airports and
other military facilities absolutely
vital to our antisubmarine activi-
ties, the ferrying of planes to Africa
and protection of the Panama Canal.
Third. it includes $7947 900 for
sanitation around these airports and
bases and in connection with the
procurement of strategic materials.
Deduct the s30O00,00O to be repaid
on lease-lend transfers. the capital
investment in airports and military
facilities, AND the expenditure of
sanitation and the 1924, ,185 900
shrinks to $178 8,593 ,000"

PAW Foresees Little Hope

Prospects of increased gasoline

In fact, PAW added, unforeseen

state regional reductions in present

PAW Administrator Ickes has said
that military use Of gasoline, par
ticularly high-octane airplane fuel,
will increase during 1914 in both the
Atlantic and Pacific war theaters.
Quotas are entirely dependent on
war needs" PAW declared. and a

Nevertheless, the possible status of
Gen. Macarthur and any other pres

was considered very vague under
this order. The letter of Secretary
Stimson now has cleared the atmos-
phere.

tary man on active duty may be
nominated for President or Vice

BY GOULD LINCOLN.

Backers OF Gen. Douglas Mac
Arthur and 1t. Comdr. Harold
E. Stassen for President are ex-
pected to redouble their activi-
ties, now that Secretary Of War
Stimson and Secretary Of the
Navy Knox have agreed that
service in the armed forces are
no bar to nomination and elec-
ton.
Recently Senator johnson, Demo-
crat, of Colorado, declaring the New
Deal is dead" urged his party to
nominate Gen. George C. Marshall
chief of staff. The ruling of the
War and Navy Secretaries would
clear the way, also, for Gen. Mar
shall should the Democrats wish to
nominate him.
Vandenberg Asks Questions.
The issue was cleared up at the
instance of Senator Vandenberg
Republican, Of Michigan, who has
been a leading proponent of the
nomination of Gen. Macarthur
Today he made public the answers
he had received from Secretary
Stimson and Secretary Knox to the
following questions:
IL. Can an officer. without any
direct or indirect participation in
the movement himself, accept a
draft nomination for high public
office from a major political party?
y. Can an officer, thus drafted,
accept such q nomination and re-
main in the armed services during
an election campaign in which he
does not participate and in which
he takes no part?
"3. II elected under such circum-
stances, can an offlcer resign to ac-
cept such an election from the
people?'
StimsOn and Knox Reply.
Secretary Stimson replied:
In the circumstances set forth In
YOUR letter, no War Department
policy or regulation will be so con-
strued as to prevent an Army officer
from accepting nomination for the
presidency or vice presidency of the
United States and remaining on
active duty in the armed services
during the election campaign. At
the pleasure of the President, he
may, If elected, resign to accept the
office or. If eligible therefor and de-
sirous OF so doing, retire"
Secretary Knox replied:
THE answers to all three oues-
tions, assuming the facts to be pre-
cisely as set forth by you. is in the
afflrmative, subject to the limitation
that 1t is discretionary with the
President whether or not he will at
any time accept the resignation OF

women. In some instances, Mr.. Vim
son held, price "squeezes" have con-
tributed to abandonment of manu-
facture while, he implied. WPB gen.
orally has not exerted sufficient
force to induce manufacture.
Mr.. Vinson stated that provision
would be made for moderate price
increases to clothing manufacturers
where needed. In addition, he said
that WPB will be expected to "util-
ize its legal authority" to correct
shortage conditions. WPB, theoreti-
cally has the power to compel man
ufacturers to make the needed goods
regardless of profit margins.
officials said textile mills have
Evening star., 1943-12-13

stopped making cloth for low priced
clothes because it is more profitable
to make the more costly goods and
luxury clothing. The Nations pur-
chasing power has increased 50
greatly that most families have been
able to buy the more expensive
things. This trend h>- >dded great
lv to the cost of living, in a way
that is not reflected in Govern
ment statistics on price rises.
Parents have encountered in
creasing difficulties in finding
clothes for children in stores, par
ticularly warm winter wear. Work
clothes are scarce, too, and many
cheaper lines for adults. such as
low priced dresses. have disap-
peared almost entirely.
Meanwhile, there is plentiful
supply of luxury items and more
costly adult clothes. on which the
manufacturer profit is large.
Mr.. Vinson said that any price
increases allowed mills to encourage
production would have to be ap-
proved by his ofnce. In the order
to Price Administrator Chester
Bowles and WPB Chairman Donald
M. Nelson he stated, however, that
increases will be granted for scarce
goods manufacture, where the profit
margin of all textiles made by mill
is not unduly high
Prize Markun Iiu,ifed
This increase should not allow the
mill more than per cent over cost
Where mill is making excep-
tionally high profit on total opera
tions, no increases will be granted.
The order brought into the open
a controversy of long standing be-
tween OPA and WPB. Price officials
have contended that textile mills are
making more money than ever be-
fore and that where mill is making
good profit on its overall output, it
should be willing to manufacture
low priced goods at little or no
profit. WPB contended that the
only way to increase production of
the scarce goods was to raise CELL
ings and thus encourage mills to
make such goods
The whole issue is expected to
come to a head shortly when Mr..
Vinson will consider raising prices
for manufacture of work clothes
goods, such as chambrays, denim
and covert.
