make complaints, how to file
appeals, difficulty in dealing
with the dodos without business
experience who, in the general
manpower shortage, have of ne
cessity been brought into gov
eminent to enforce the maze of
wartime regulations.
AS sidelights on these COM
plexities, there are the recent
announcement that OPA is now
trying to boil down its 81 VOL
umes of orders into five, and a
check up on the number of war
agency field offices set up to ex-
plain the war program and try
to lend helping hand to the
small business man.
AROUND 1900 OFFICES
There are 106 Smaller War
Plants Corporation offices, 10
War Production Board offices.
102 district and regional Office
of Price Administration offices
(not counting the $500 ration
boards, IL regional War Labor
Boards, $50 Wage and Hour law
and Wage Sterilization offices.
II regional, state and TT area
War Manpower Commission of
fees plus 1900 U. S. Employ
ment Service offices, and 26
Department Of Commerce re-
gional offices which are suppos-
ed TO be able to answer all the
questions about all the others.
The mere personnel problem
Of getting good men for all
these 500 or more principal and
1000 local offices means quail
fications go down, even when
enthusiasm and intentions arc
the best.
In the demand for reports. APP
plications and appeals for these
agencies, Quincy Adams finds
that local firms Of Accountants
are doing land-office business.
Instead of bothering with the
formidable forms himself, the
small businessman is inclined
to turn the job over TO the ac-
countants-for a fee, Of course.
Sometimes this results in in
accurate information furnished
to the government. Where
specific answer is difficult the
accountants0Uut of their knowl-
edge and experience of business
conditions III the area. vii. fill
in an approximate answer
which satisfies the requirement.
of the form and keeps .hc gov
eminent agency happy, even If
it's wrong.
HESITATE TO INFORM
ON WHOLESALERS
Reluctance to report known
violations of government orders
causes many small business men
a lot of self-imposed grief, Mr.
Adams reports. Forced tie-in
sales provide the best example.
1t is against the Emergency
Price Control act for a whole
saler or distributor to force
retailer to accept goods he does
mt want as a condition to re-
ceiving goods he does want, yet
retailers won't file formal pro-
tests for fear they will be black
listed by their supply house.
Another source of confusion
TO employers comes from inno-
cent violations of the wage sta
bilzation law. Not being too ia
miliar with this law, wanting to
keep their employees, employers
are frequently waking up to dis
cover that they have given some
worker an unauthorized raise.
Going to the Regional War La
Dor Board and confessing all to
an enforcement attorney may
lead to a penalty disallowance
of payroll for income tax pur-
poses. Too many employers still
don't know about War Labor
Board Form 10, which permits
the employer TO file a new or
revised schedule Of wages for
government approval under the
wage sterilization pr ogram.
Yes. another form.
