Reed Raps Roosevelt S
Pledges 10 Labor al
Price Act HEARING

The administrations food subsidy
program is being carried on because
of promises made by President
Roosevelt to organized labor "and
has little or no relation to price con-
troll" Senator Reed, Republican, of
Kansas charged today as the Senate
Banking Committee entered the
final week Of hearings on continual
ton of the Price Control Act.
Senator Reed placed in the record
a letter he had just written to Price
Administrator Chester Bowles, as
serting that the subsidy policy is in
fiationary.
Meanwhile, all indications are that
committee members who do not
favor the subsidy program may turn
their efforts to placing some limita-
tions on such payments, rather than
renew past attempts to ban subsidies
entirely.
Raps Administration Policy.
Senator Reed told the committee
administration officials have "left
the impression with the country
that there is definite and substan-
tial opposition to maintaining con-
troll over prices, and except for their
efforts a conspiracy to defeat con-
troll might be successful"
This is the usual hog wash"
Senator Reed continued. There is
no substantial opposition in the
Congress to the extension of con-
troll over prices during the war and
sometime thereafter.
/ There is very large amount of
criticism of the OPA and its meth
DDS of administration. There have
been numerous SUGGESTIONS offered tc
the committees, both of the Senate
and the House, to simplify admin
istration and to make it more effec-
tive. I certainly hope the COM
mitCee will give serious considera-
ton to such suggestions. There is
room for great improvement along
these lines. But, the cry set ur
that price control is in danger is
incorrect, misleading and apparently
designed to alarm the country"
i Spence Seeks Early Action.
Chairman Spence of the House
Banking Committee promised, mean
while, to seek early floor action on
price control-subsidy legislation, as
serting he had no intention of try
ing to delay consideration until
House Republicans are in Chicago
for their party's national conven-
ton.
1--WE have agreed to end hearings
by May g." he said, adding that he
was in favor of reporting the bill
to the House at that time, with the
hope of getting it to President
Roosevelt long before the present

Then came the ordeal of getting

theoretically this was considered
