Henry !! Ford Urges
Early Elimination Of
Wartime Controls
By the Associated Prsss.

4 By the Associated Press.
DETROIT, Nov. 4.-Henry 70. \
today advocated the earliest pos
sible elimination Of wartime con-
trolls over materials, production and
distribution and asserted that the
future is none too bright as things
stand right now" for "the millions
Of young men and women whose
world this will be in a few years"
In statement from his ONCE in
nearby Dearborn, Mr.. Ford said:
THE inspiration to work hard, to
compete strongly with the other
fellow in the same business, has
almost been destroyed. Wartime
controls that tie up raw materials,
restrict production and limit the
distribution of goods have got to
be discontinued as rapidly as pos
sible after the war If our American
system of living and doing business
Is to be resumed.
| Condemns Continued Control.
To-day we find some disciples of
government preaching doctrine Of
continued control over private en-
terprise and that means control over
individual initiative. We had more
than $50 years of the American way
Of life before we began to hear this
kind Of talk. 1t must be stopped
| now"
Mr.. Ford said that not all of the
problems of today and tomorrow lie
with government or business. "A
good portion of It," he said, slies
with those who work in the shops
and factories of the country"
Asserting that mo real American
workman wants anything for MOTH
ing: what he wants is chance to
work and get ahead on his own
ability" Mr.. Ford continued:
"Idleness is the reason for many
of our troubles. My thoughts today
are with the young men who are
coming home from war with a blank
wall OF inopportunity facing them.
We owe these men, the ones who
have been sent abroad, everything
we can think Of In the way Of help
and encouragement. They will
want this help In the form OF q
chance to show what they can do
not in the form of a patronizing
gift obtained by heavy taxes on
their own families.
Young Men Have Little Chance.
What chance, under our present
system, have these young men,
should they want to express their
individual ambition and spirit OF
invention, or their mere willingness
to work hard at q good job? They
must, according to current rules,
get in line and wait their turn.
In a land which is distinguished
for freedom Of speech, freedom of
religion, freedom from want and
freedom from fear, any lack of al
freedom Of job opportunity isn't 60
ing to set well with the men who
have fought to save us on the bat
tlef1elds of the world.
Il hope, and I'M sure, that these
men and their brothers and sisters
at home are going to ask a lot of

even greater contribution to the Ma

Antonini, who, with other interna-

eating the status of Italian labor, de-
clared that 40 years of fascism have
left their marks in the minds and
character of some people, but the over

Describing living conditions in Italy
as desperate Antonini added there
was little work because industries have

Convention On Housing
Provisions Of c.. ]. Bill

Chicago (ILNS).-Full resources of
the housing industry and of the Ma
tional Housing Agency must be de-
voted to the achievement of the goal of
a good home, within his means, for
the returning war veteran, Admins
traitor John B. Blandford, Jr., of the
MIA told the national convention of
the American Legion here.
Discussing the housing provisions of
the G. /. bill of Rights" he declared !:
Il have confidence that the housing
industry and the government will see
to it that the goal of good homes for
veterans does not become vehicle for
bodybuilding, unreasonable prices or
excessive financing that will impose an
undue strain on the veterans income" :"
He said that the Legionnaires them
selves, as veterans of a previous war,
could effectively join with industry,
labor, government and American citi-
zens in all walks of life' in the task
of starting now "to build the founda-
tiOns for post-victory America that
will make possible good jobs, good
homes and high standard of living
for men now on the fighting fronts and
for all American citizens"
Adoption of the "G. L." bill by Con-
gress reflected, Blandford said, the
deep interest of the American people in
the future of the returning veterans
and contains a full recognition on the
part of Congress that one of the most
veteran will be for good home"

HIGHEST Court To
Heur Test Suit
Challenges Right To Detdin
u. S. Citizens Without
Trial By Jury

New York City ULNS). The suit
of Japanese-American Mitsuye Endo,
which challenges the right of the gov
ernment to detain L. s. citizens with
out "A trial by jury, will be heard
before the L. S. Supreme Court Octo-
ber 10, the American Civil Liberties
Union disclosed. A companion suit in
volving the validity of the evacuation
will probably be heard at the same
time.
Miss Endo, who had been held at
the Tule Lake Relocation Center, last
year filed a petition for writ of habeas
corpus which was dismissed by fed
eral Judge in San Francisco. The
Judge declared that Miss Endo had
not sought to secure her release under
War Relocation Authority regulations.
The case was brought before the Cir
cult Court of Appeals in San Fran
cisco this spring and the court with
held a decision pending Qualification
by the L. S. Supreme Court of ques-
tions.
The 4 questions certified to the Su
preme Court ask whether the War
Relocation Authority has the power 20
hold an American citizen because of
japanese ancestry; whether the WRA
has the right to confine citizen after
loyalty to the United States has been
established until he can prove his abil-
ity to support himself; whether ii citi-
zen can be held without trial; whether
IA citizen can be compelled OF report
to WRA before leaving one of the
centers.
In her appeal, backed by the North
ern California Branch of the ACLC,
Miss Endo charged that the WRA,
after clearing her for an indefinite
leave. continued to hold her, pending
proof that she could be self-supporting.
She refused to sign the release papers
on WRA terms.

sion price policy.
In a joint letter, representatives Of
wonens educational, labor, religious
and other groups declared that I'VE
heartily endorse your policy of pricing
major durable goods as they return
10 the civilian market at the prices at
which they were sold before their pro
duction was discontinued, for we be
lieye that these prices should provide
ample inducement for volume produc-
tion for mass market, and that
higher prices would unnecessarily bur
den consumers and absorb an undue
proportion of available consumer pur-
chasing power Your policy Is in the
interests of the consuming public, and
will be a ma jor element in the success
ful transition from the war economy
TO an economy which meets civilian
needs
Now washing machines, refrigera-
tors. vacuum cleaners aud other arti-
cles that have been out of production
during the war should, they said, be
ticketed with the retail ceiling price In
order that consumers may know that
they are paying legal prices.

Washington, ID. c, ULNS).-While
the Western Union Telegraph Co., con-
Siders plans for Il postwar labOr-less
telegraph industry. even to the extent
of facsimile or "telefaX" to replace
messengers, the 10000 telegraph EN-
ployees are hoping the National Labor
Relations Board will soon order ma
tional election SO that one labor union
can negotiate protection for present
workers as well as those in the armed
services
Nearly a year ago Postal Telegraph,
Inc, was merged with Western Union,
giving the latter company a complete
monopoly over land telegraph COM
munications. Already hundreds of
Postal Offices and branches have been
closed, and the total telegraph person
mel has dropped by the thousands.
1t has been estimated by the Federal
Communications Commission that prob
ably half of the $4,000 Postal em-
ployees have already been eliminated,
principally by tsynover of messengers.
Western Union his closed MANY of its
training schools and has employed few
new operators.
Although the American Federation
of Labor. in behalf of its affiliates the
Commercial Teegraphers Union and
two directly chartered federal unions,

Urge Passage

ties for medical care in any given area
is much more likely to be in relation
to its economic resources than to the
health needs of its population"
For these reasons, the AFL declared,
passage of the Wagner-AIurray-Dingell
bill is an urgent national requirement.
The statement summarized the health
provision of this bill as follows:
"In addition to its provisions for
much needed improvements of the en-
tire system of employment security
and old age benefits, it provides health
and disability benefits to practically
all workers not otherwise covered and
to members of their families in indus
trial, commercial, agricultural, domes-
tic and non-proft institutional employ
ment.
"'rhis bill provides the services of a
physician chosen by the worker. Care
is to be available for as long as
needed, at the home, Office or hospital,
including preventive, diagnostic and
Therapeutic treatment and care, as
well as periodic physical examinations.
1T provides for laboratry services,
special appliances and eyeglasses.
1T provides disqualification for 30
days, or longer if funds permit.
''It provides suitable benefits to an
insured worker who by reason of ill
ness or injury is totally unable to work
at his last or usual occupation for 20
weeks in the benefit year, plus II
weeks additional maternity benfits.
1T provides for free choice of ply
sician and hospital and for the free
dom of the doctor to determine the
patients he will serve.
1T provides grants-in-aid for medi-
cal research, education and training.
1T is designed to supplement and
not conflict with presently operating
workmens compensation plans.
in brief II is n carefully considered
plan to meet just the deficiencies which
the inquiries Of this committee and
previous studies of national health
needs have revealed. 1t is our firm con-
viction that anything short of the com
prehensiye program provided In this
measure will condemn millions of our
people To the undeserved suffering and
want attendant on Illness and will CON
tribute to the insecurity of our ma
tonal well-being."
