Ten-point Program
For Reconversion
Offered by ToIan
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
A sweeping 10-point program for
shifting the Nations industrial ma
chinery from war to civilian pro-
duction under the direction of q "re-
conversion car" was advanced to-
day by Representative Tolan, DEM
ocrat, Of California to prevent post
war chaos and confusion" He
proposed:
l.. Immediate appointment of a
single administrator to coordinate
Federal, State, local and civilian
agencies.
2. Creation of a central board Of
directors" composed of three mem
bers OF the House, three of the Sen
ate and representative each from
agriculture, labor and industry. This
board would supervise the admins
traitors activities.
8. An advisory council appointed
by the Governors Of the 48 States
to balance sectional needs and to
furnish the central agency with in
formation on possible channels for
relieving unemployment.
4. Appropriation of sufficient funds
to retain a staff of skilled technical
experts to chart the steps necessary
for conversion to peacetime produc-
ton as war needs slacken.
Would Appoint Committee.
5. Formation of q congressional
committee to draft any necessary
reconversion legislation.
6. Institution Of immediate sur
veys by local communities and by
the States to determine their own
employment potentiaities and post
war labor prospects.
Z. Creation of a new agency
similar to the Small War Plants
Corp.-to aid little industries in re-
conversion.
8. Use OF local draft boards as
community employment centers for
returning soldiers.
8. A long-range study of new prod
ucts, new materials and new inven-
tions in the back to work" pro-
gram.
Decide Plant Dispositions.
10. Determination of what dispo-
sition should be made of Govern
ment-owned industries-which ones
should be scrapped, which ones
sold to private interests, which ones
retained or leased, and which ones
packed ayay in grease to insure a
source for munitions production in
an emergency.
"All this" said Mr.. Tolan, adds
up to a tremendous task. But it is
perhaps the most serious economic
problem the country has con-
fronted in its history and 1t is one
which must be answered"
Mr.. Tolan is chairman of the
House Committee on Defense Mi
grafton, which, early in the war
recommended Capitalization of the
war industrial effort and appoint
ment Of war mobilization director.
