The Political Mill
Two Blows Struck in Week on Capitol Hill
Against Government by 'Directives

no matter what was the evident
intent of Congress. He said that
Attorney General Biddle had in
formed him the order was legally
all right.
The administration forces
sought to change the issue dur
ing the Disney bill fight in the
House. They endeavored to make
it appear that the adoption of
the notification clause was work.
ing only in the interest of the
rich-the few high-salaried men
who have over $4,000 annual
salaries. They said it was an
outrage to leave a ceiling on
wages and no ceiling on high SAL
aries. This line of attack shook
some of the less firm from stem
to stern. But enough stuck to
their guns and declined to be
sWayed against their belief that
the constitutional prerogatives of
Congress had been violated. They
were unwilling to sell the Con-
stitution down the river for a
mess of votes. The bill now
goes to the Senate, where the
language of the salary limitation
provision may be revised. The
prediction is made that there
are enough votes in the Senate
to adopt the notification clause.
Senator Vandenberg, Republi-
can, of Michigan, who has shown
himself one of the most con-
Structive legislators, is largely
responsible for the declaration
in the report Of the Senate For
eign Relations Committee that
any agreements made under
lease-lend must go through the
regular constitutional channels
If they are to be effective in the
postwar period In other words,
the administration is on notice.
and so are the governments Of
foreign nations, that no Lease
Lend agreements can bind the
Congress and this country on
future tariff or trade agreements
or other economic agreements.
The Congress will have to pass
on any and all such agreements
in the future.
The Lease-Lend Act" Sena-
tor Vandenberg told the Senate
during the consideration of the
bill, "is exclusively an instru-
mentality of war. 1t has
nothing to do with the terms or
the pattern of the ultimate peace.
That responsibility lies else
where. 1t should not be used.
directly or indirectly, to assert
any general peace commitments.
1t has been used for these col
lateral and unwarranted pur-
poses. The practice should cease"
He pointed out that in article
VII of the so-called master
agreements, under lease-lend
with Great Britain, the Soviet
Union, China and seven other
countries, already attempts have
been made to commit this coun-
try to economic engagements. He
said, too, that In chapted 8 OF
the agreement signed with Bra
I'll, language was included which
might easily be construed as an
agreement on the part of this
country to scrap its synthetic
rubber plants, in which $500 ,OOO.-
900 is now being invested, after
the war. And Senator Vanden-
berg called attention to a speech
made by Vice President Wallace
last July In whcih Mr.. Wallace
said: Personally, I hope that
after the war is over only a few
small synthetic alcohol-rubber
plants are kept running so that
improvements can be made. -.
L trust, however, that the vast
nulk OF our rubber would come
from a really cheap source
from Latin America and the Far
East"

ton OF the Office of War Information
contention that the motion picture

The bright feather in the cap of

OF movie propaganda in North

At the last meeting of the Coun-
Gil a number of matters were dis
cussed and action taken that will
affect the CLIO in Dayton in the
future. Under the following sub
heads m some important bits of
news that we strongly urge every
member to read.
Candidate
Myron Smith, member of Delco
UE Local 755, is a candidate for
the office of City Commissioner.
In every Local office, there will
be petitions to be signed to as
sure Smith of a place on the ballot
in the coming elections. The Coun-
Gil offices and the offices of the
Dayton Union News will be well
supplied and we are asking every
member to stop in and sign. The
CIO has representatives in many
of the government agencies that
are being set up all over the coun-
try, and If there was ever a spot
where we need representation, it
is on the city commission. Any
one who knows Myron Smith also
knows that he is a man with the
courage of his convictions and can
do a real job for CIO if we give
him the support that he needs
in the race.
