Mr.. Nelson's Position


man Nelson Of the War Production
Board suggests that Mr.. Nelson, In
seeking to let some industries begin
preparing for reconversion to peace
time operations. has lost sight Of
the overriding necessity of keeping
arms output at full blast, lest the
Army and Navy be obliged to revise
their strategic plans and victory be
delayed for our armed forces over
seas.
The record, however, does not sup
port such view, for when Mr.. Mel
son first announced his plan about
three weeks ago. he made a special
point Of emphasizing that 1t would
mean precious little in the way Of
expanded civilian production in the
immediate future" Arms output
throughout the summer, he declared,
would in certain respects enter its
most critical phase, requiring the
greatest possible effort to get it up
to schedule and keep it there. More
over, although Chairman McNutt of
the War Manpower Commission is
represented as opposed to the relax
alton OF WPB restrictions, Mr.. Mel
son made it clear at the outset that
no reconversion of any sort would
be permitted in any area without
prior consultation with the VINO to
guard against cutting into the labor
supply essential to plants working
on military contracts. Indeed, he
asserted that his proposed easement
measures would be revoked if they
were found to interfere with the
need to shift at least 100000 workers
to arms-making areas where there
are acute manpower shortages.
In view Of this record, Admiral
Leahy's letter, voicing the opinion of
the joint chiefs Of stafr OF the Army
ana Navy, seems to misrepresent Mr..
Nelson's position when it implies
that his plan would, in effect, call for
relaxation in war production.
Actually, as Mr.. Nelson has already
explained in detail, he is fully aware
OF the need to keep arms output up
to schedule and has no intention of
letting anything operate against
that objective. At the same time,
however, quite in keeping with the
recommendations of the Baruch-
Hancock report, he is anxious to
have industries make modest start
without delay, on one phase of pre-
pairing for reconversion to peace
time Work-this to apply only to
areas where men and plants are
Idle, where no new war contracts are
IN prospect and where there will be
serious unemployment problem
unless steps are taken to resume the
manufacture of civilian goods. Fur
ther, in MIR. Nelson's words, the we'll
being OF the national economy de-
mands some such action as he pro-
poses, for lust as industrial prepa-
rations for war had to be started be-
lore large-scale lighting began, so
also industrial preparations for
peace must be begun in plenty of
time before the fighting ends"
OF course, if Mr.. Nelson's plan
would have the effect ascribed to it
by Admiral Leahy, it would be insup-
portable. But its opponents have
yet to specify convincingly Just how
1t would cut into war production.
untll they do so, Mr., Nelson's posi-
ton will remain strong.

Babson Park, Mass, Jan. I'll
want to start 1914 by writing to the
millions OF service men wives. So
many of you are wondering what
your hus lands are TO do after their
return. Eertainly, you should not

Why not devote TO this subject
your very next letter to him? Per
haps you will send him this mes
sage from me.
Former Employers viii be Helpful
II your husband had a job when
he was drafted. the chances are
nine out of ten that his former en-
ployer will be proud to take him
back. Not only does the, Draft Act
require this OF employers who are
able to do so, but employers will
find 1t good business. This will
mean that many women and girls
will be obliged TO quit industry:
but this will be only fair and just.
! wonder II your husband will be
content to again be mere cog in
a big wheel after he returns? Men
differ. Some are born to work for
others and will be happier doing
so: while some men will do better
in a little business b. themselves.
Some prefer large cities; while

lABORS REVOLT
AGAINST HILLMAN
(Santa Monica Evening Outlook)

4 The actions of Boss Sidney lllllman
and his Political Action committee are
being sharply criticized by the AFL and
the Railroad BrotherhoodS and with rea-
son. The ClO attempt to compel its mem
berS to vote as a unit is so un-Amerlean
that even its own people are aroused by II.
The close relations of Sidney Hillman
with the communists is further reason
for condemnation. The Communist party
formally dissolved but the association
which replaced it threw all its support
to Hillman and the ClO. With that help
Hillman was able to capture control OF
the American Labor party III New York
which resulted in revolt against him of
serious proportions.
The attempt to dictate how ClO mem
berS shall vote is a direct and faithful
copy of communist principles and prac-
tees. The communist must follow the
party line or be expelled. The ClO COM
mand to its members is equally dictator
ial and un- American.
Fifteen AFL unions join in publishing
a weekly newspaper, Labor. Its critl-
cisms of l1illman and his PAC are un-
reserved. 1t declares the ClO slush fund
may cause "the most serious repercuS-
sions from one end of the country to the
other" and that never has any group
in the labor movement attempted to raise
such large funds for political purposes"
1t declares that the tests imposed by
CIO on candidates Frequently emphasize
issues of no direct concern to the working
man" and adds that IIllmans course Gre
ates "ominous possibilities for the entire
labor movement" and will strengthen
the hands of organized labor's foes and
increase the demand for more rigid regus
laton of labor unions
In an article in the AFL weekly news
service, a leading labor publicist Philip
Pearl. SAYS the CIO is ''baSically inse-
cure" and that its only hope for survival
lis the election of national administra-
tion so committed to the CIO that it will
use the machinery of government to sup
port and perpetuate the CIO during a
period when nothing else can hold it to-
gether."
These are representative statements
from sound labor leadership. They indi-
cate a clear understanding of the Com
munist-ClO program and its dangers
both to labor and the country. They also
promise growing labor revolt against
Hillman's bOssism that will lose Mr..
Roosevelt more votes than the CIO can
win for him.

CIVILIAN IS BYSTANDER
AS USUAL, IN BUREAU TILT

And now two other bureaus At Wash
ington are at loggerheads; and again the
civilian public is the innocent bystand-
er" who will be the ultimate casualty.
Happily. this row may not hurt anyone,
inasmuch as the two chiefs are at war
over something which they may never
have any authority TO handle. 1t all Is
about prices civilians must pay for goods
moved back into production when the war
in Europe ends.
II profoundly is to be hoped. and If
the temper of the public these days means
anything. these bureaucratS will have
nothing To do with reconverSiOn. At least
not for long. This country can not af-
ford to gamble with the present bureau
set-up or New Deal tactics when the
time comes To emerge from war emergen-
cy regulations and RECOMMENDATION.
This row is between the big chief HIM
self-James F. Byrnes. the Presidents
man Friday of the War mobilization bu-
reau and Chester Bowles. director of the
office of price administration. They Just
can't agree on the peoples business. No
BODY expects il and so if it helps to while
away the hot days at Washington, why,
let the gentlemen row to their hearts
content. An even bet they both are
wrong, and no matter which one wins
out the public will be the loser.
1t is a right bitter row and displaces
for the moment the Smouldering embers
of the hot dispute in the office of war
production. Byrnes and Bowles will give
Sailor Krug a chance to try to piece to-
gether what is left of WPB after the
Nelson Wilson Roosevelt SkirmiSh in
which the commander-in-chief let Wilson
get away, sent Nelson to China and pick
ed out the next bureau victim.
According to flashes from the scene
of conflict, Byrnes is all for a blanket
increase over pre-War prices on all items
emerging from war restrictions and
which are slated for civilian production
and distribution. Bowles backs a plan
to keep most of the maj or items at the
same price level as before the war, in
Guiding automobiles. And then BOwles
comments while some commodities are
going to come back at higher prices than
when they went out, not all of them Will
be higher
In spite of the New Deals policy which
is to fix everything by arbitrary direc
tives and despite the fact that the ad-
ministration has set aside every natural
law and rule, it is quite possible that two
factors will move into the matter OF
prices after the war; the good old rule
of supply and demand, and the cost of
production. both fully aware of higher
and properly so, wages.
1t will be bad day for reconversion
if and when the various bureaus in Wash
ington undertake to carry on. To large
measure their functioning has been hope
lessly failure, at times disgracefully
so, in war emergency times. Heaven help
the country if they try to run things in
the reconverSion period.
