Thomas Plans 10 Seek
Curb on 0PA Power
By the Associated Press.

Senator Thomas, Democrat, of
Oklahoma served notice on the ad-
ministration today he will attempt
to narrow the field of Government
price control to basic cost-of- living
commodities.
The Oklahoman announced he
would seek to impose a definite
curb on the Office of Price Admin
istration's authority when Congress
acts on extending the stabilizat ton
program beyond June 80, as re-
quested by President Roosevelt in
his annual message Tuesday.
Senator Thomas credited the OPA
with doing "a good job" of controll-
ing retail costs of food, clothing
and other necessities, but contended
attempts to regulate the prices of
noneSsentials of every description
had "harassed business and created
antagonism' toward the entire sta
bllization program.
The OPA now tries to fix prices
Of everything a person buys or uses
from the time he gets up in the
morning until he goes to bed at
night" Senator Thomas said in an
interview. The price of toy pistols,
for instance, has nothing to do with
winning the war The OPA is, in
effect, trying to tell everybody how
to run their business.
If they were to maintain con-
trolls on the essentials of life, and
stop there, the country wouldn't
object"
