who deserves the credit. Now in the
third year of the war. one-half of
our national production is for war
purposes. During the last war,
which lasted only year and half,
only one-quarter of our output was
for war purposes. We are now spend
ing 30 billion dollars every four
months on the war; that's as much
as we spent during the entire 1S
months of the last war.

This is due partly to his own OBJ
vious competence, and partly to the
fact that he represents something
the American people have found to
their liking-rationing. For ration
ing, with all its irritations, is largely
the peoples own operation.
Out of total of 1000 OPA
workers, 100000 are unpaid volun-
teers. At times the number of VOL
unteers has reached $685. 900. These
people are all neighbors of the peo-
Pile who are rationed, are themselves
the vicitims-or beneficiaries-oft the
same rationing. So when Bowles
talks with Congressman about the
work of his enormous staff, he is
talking about the Congressmen's
own constituents.
Free of Politics.
There was time when it seemed
possible to make political capital out
of the annoyances that resulted
from rationing, but that time has
passed. The system is accepted
Last winter the ballyhoo against
subsidies was SO loud some people
got the impression that repeal of
subsidies was as important as the
defeat of Hitler It's not like that
now. Congress seems satisfied with
a situation that leaves it opposed to
subsidies in principle, but agreeable
to them in practice.
There is every reason to believe
Congress will vote to continue OPA
operations very much as at present.
Committee members have confined
their suggestions to possible i'm
provements in detail. Several mem
bers want amendments of the regu-
lations to care for hardship cases."

Nobody, however, seems to have

suit in general price increases.
There is a disposition on the part
Of some members also to argue for
either increased court review or the
establishment of board of review
within the OPA. Appeal to the courts
can be taken now only when penal
ties are imposed by the OPA. Only
36 such appeals have been taken,
Notwithstanding that OPA has sus-
pended licenses in 5000 cases be-
cause of violation of regulations. A
great many automobilists have had
their books taken from them, but
only two have appealed to the
courts.
May Point With Pride.
All in all, OPA seems to have met
the test of popular acceptance. 1t

An issue in the coming campaign.

was that of the Democrats at the
very beginning when it was dis
covered that Leon Henderson had
been appointing as many Republi-
cans as Democrats-some said more.

will point with pride this summer
