Suggested Speech
Changed by Warren
Ey the Associated Press.

Py the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 31.-A speech
proposed by Republican national
headquarters, denouncing Sidney
Hillman and the C1O Political Ac-
tion Committee for backing fourth
term for President Roosevelt, was
altered by Gov. Earl Warren before
he delivered 1t over a national radio
hookup Tuesday night.
THE New York headquarters sent
draft of a suggested speech to
me and it arrived the day before
at the Capitol in Sacramento" Gov.
Warren told newsmen. Il worked
| it over and made such changes as
to me seemed desirable. Then it
was given to newspapermen."
The Governor declared he was un-
aware why the original speech was
released to the press Monday by
the Republican National Committee
without his approval He said the
speech was killed Tuesday night by
Republican headquarters before pub
lication.
Gov. Warren in the revised speech
thus referred to Mr.. Hillman, chair
man of the CIO Political Action
Committee:
The Republican party does not
propose to buy this election We
insist, though, that Mr.. Sidney Hill
man and his committees shall not
be permitted to do 1t either. We
know that they do have in mind
lavish and uncontrolled campaign
expenditures in behalf of the New
Deal candidates, and that their real
purposes have not been fully dis
closed"
! Senator OMahoney, Democrat, of
Wyoming asserted earlier that Gov.
Warren and Cows. Dwight H. Green
of Illinois and Raymond E Baldwin
of Connecticut had changed their
speeches. given on the same pro-
gram, because the Dewey -Brownell
propaganda was too strong for them
and it will be too strong for the
American people"
In Chicago, Chairman Herbert
Brownell, jr, of the Republican
National Committee would not COM
ment on Senator OMahoney's state
ment. Cows. Green and Baldwin
could not at once be reached for
comment
Efforts in New York to compare
the text OF the proposed speech
with the one Gov. Warren delivered
were met by this statement from
headquarters OF the Republican Ma
tional Committee
The Republican National Com
mittee made its request to kill the
advance copy of the Governors S
speech before broadcast time. 1t
therefore cannot now grant permis-
sion for publication of any parts of
the killed copy

Navy Will Retain Shops
Until Overtime Ban Ends
BY the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO. Aug 3l.-The
Navy declared yesterday it would
not relinquish possession of l04
machine shops here, seized after the
AFL Machinists' Union banned over
time work. until the union made
effective guarantees that the over
time ban had been rescinded for the
duration of the war.
The declaration came in a tele-
gram from Ralph A. Bard. Under
secretary Of the Navy, to Rear
Admiral H. B. Bowen, who was
placed in charge of the seized shops
under presidential proclamation.
The union imposed a work limita-
ton Of eight hours day, six days a
week at time contract negotiations
were under way. The Navy took the
shops over after declaring this
Limitation slowed the war effort.
Most Of the machinists returned
to overtime work after the Navy
seized the shops and posted overtime
schedules. The union membership
refused to rescind its ban on over
time, but voted that penalties would
not be imposed on union members
who did work extra hours on orders
of the Navy.

Government. There can be no de-
mocracy, no popular government
where ownership control is vested
in government organization"
Representative Celler ignited the
merry exchanges regarding Mr.. Hill
man when he praised the latters
views as given to the House Cam
palgn Expenses Committee. He said
the detractors of Mr.. Hillman call
him Communist. but it is hardly
likely" that the two union banks he
heads would permit him to hold
such high Office If he were one.
Mr.. Celler said Gov. Thomas E,
Dewey, Republican presidential
nominee, accepted" $4,000 from
Mr.. Hillman and the CIO for his
district attorney campaign seven
years ago and lit is altogether diff
ferent when one is on the receiving
end"
Representative Knutson. Repub-
hcan, OF Minnesota replied that Mr..
DeWey's managers then may have
accepted the money, but Mr.. Dewey
did not personally, adding that as
1t stands now Mr.. Hillman is the
greatest single asset the Republican
party has in this campaign"
Representative Rankin. Democrat.
OF Mississippi jumped into the gen.
eral melee with a declaration that
the Observation-Disclosures in
public Office" should repudiate the
support of Mr.. Hillman and his
Communist, Fascist machine"
Chicago Activities Discussed.
Mr.. Hillman's activities at the
Democratic National Convention
were brought into the discussion by
Representative Simpson, Republican,
OF Pennsylvania, who said the CIO
leader dictated that the convention
must not nominate James F.. Byrnes
for the vice presidency.
AS war mobilizer, Mr.. Simpson
said, Mr.. Byrnes had the faith of
the public and the people were
shocked when this distinguished
citizen was. denied the vice presi-
dental nomination only because
Sidney Hillman so ordered"
He said that what was done in
Chicago can be done in Washing
ton and Justice Byrnes' position
therefore is not permanent"
Should Mr.. Hillman demand it
Mr.. Simpson added, "Byrnes would
follow Henry Wallace and Donald
Nelson on a one-Way trip to China. 81
He said further that either Mr.
Hillman or Mr.. Wallace, the retiring
Vice President, might be appointed
to head the reconversion office es-
tablished in the legislation now
pending land then we would see A
real cracking down on industry"
Representative Lynch, Democrat
of New York shot back:
1T is to be regretted that a SUBJ
ject so important as this IS being
made a political football
Mr.. Lynch attacked the bill itself
however, as "do-nothing" measure,
failing to protect the worker from
the economic shock of war-to-
peace conversion.
In defense of the measure, Rep
resentative Dewey, Republican, OF
Illinois sided with Ways and Means
Chairman Doughton that reconver-
sion should not mean programs for
which there is no tax revenue.
Mr.. Dewey said the public debt
would be almost $1,000 per capita
when the war is over and every
mother and wife of a soldier should
demand proof wherein an increase
Of our national debt or taxes can
be justified"

Friends Think WiIIkit
Wi|| Support COP
Slate in November
BY the Associated Press.

~
NEW YORK, Aug. 31.-Wendell
L. Willkie may keep the Republicans
and Democrats guessing until only
a few days before the election, but
friends here are betting the 1910
COP presidential nominee will stick
with his adopted party.
Mr.. Willkie, who has not said
which candidate he will support In
November, if either, admittedly has
embarked on a campaign to force
both President Roosevelt and Gov.
Thomas E. Dewey as far out into the
open as he can on domestic and
foreign issues. He is particularly in
terested in those relating to postwar
organization to secure future peace.
1t is the Willkie thesis that the
presidential nominees are practical
men who want to win an election
and to that end desire to avoid as
A'ASsSAA SoAeAoNCAoy dS DOSSlUle.
Countering this. he has tried to make
them talk on debatable issues.
Politicians differ over Mr.. Willkie' s
ability to swing any stable bloc
OF voters, but the mere fact that
they cannot gauge the effect of his
potential Endorsement keeps most
OF them treading lightly. They re-
member that in 1910 he polled more
votes for President than any Re-
publican in history, after leaving
the Democratic party.
Mr.. Willkie believes he has made
substantial progress in helping
move both Gov. Dewey, the COP
nominee, and the President toward
what the Willkie adherents call
more liberal" views on foreign
policy.
Mr.. Willkie has two written invi-
tations from President Roosevelt
for a conference on foreign policy
either at the White House or at
Hyde Park, with the agreement that
meeting could be held entirely
of the record" He will accept
neither, unless it is by virtual presi-
dental command-something that
is not likely to happen.

Plane Output Board
SET for Dissolution as
Wilson Leaves WPb
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The Aircraft Production Board
created nearly two years ago tt
crack a tight bottleneck in >plane
output, was slated today for dis.
solution-its job done-as the man
who organized it left the Washing
ton scene.
With close to 5000 planes already
built this year and production roll
ing at the rate of 100000 planes
annually. Charles E. Wilson, retiring
executive vice chairman of the War
Production Board, disclosed yester-
day that members had recommended
discontinuance of the emergency
aircraft unit. The recommendation
has gone to j. A. Krug, acting chief
of WPB.
I'VE think the bottleneck has been
broken" Mr.. Wilson said at an in
formal news conference that closed
his last day at the war agency.
Meanwhile, 1t was reported that
another WPB vice chairman has
followed Mr.. Wilson's lead and sub
mitted a resignation. Two sources
within the agency said that L. r.
Boulware, in charge of operations,
had written to Mr.. Krug of plans
to leave. Neither Mr. Krug nor Mr.
Boulware would comment.
August Output Under Schedule.
Sidney J. Weinberg. vice chair
man in charge of special problems. -
already has resigned, blaming
"demagogic intriguers" in WPB for
the split between Mr.. Wilson and
Chairman Donald M. Nelson, now
on a mission to China.
Mr.. Wilson estimated that plane
production in August would be
slightly under schedule - about
1900 instead of 8,2OO-but he said
this was nothing to worry about
because I'VE got all the planes we
wanted" Of types needed. Output
OF B-29s, the new Super Fortresses
was close to schedule, he stated.
Under Mr.. Wilson's direction as
chairman of the Aircraft Produc-
ton Board, American plane pro-
duction rose to peak output of Oils
ships in a single month, March o1
this year. Before the board was
organized less than half that mum.
Der was being produced each month
and many were trainer types.
The tapering off of current
monthly schedules to around 5000
planes is due to emphasis on heavy
bomber types
New Bookkeeping Blamed.
Mr.. Wilson said that actually the
failure to meet schedules this month
and last could be attributed to a
new system Of bookkeeping, rather
than to any lag in production. The
system excludes from the final count
planes that still have to go through
modification centers where they are
fitted for particular jobs This tai
loring' Of planes in modification CEN
tiers. rather than in assembly plants
averts the necessity of halting pro-
duction lines.
When reporter asked II the dis
sension within WPB to which he at
tributed his resignation had had an
adverse effect on war production
Mr.. Wilson pondered and then said
he hoped it hadn't. He added. how
ever, that undoubtedly internal
strife had interfered with efficiency
OF the staff.
The retiring executive. returning
to the presidency of General Elec-
trio Co., had warm praise for men,
bers OF his personal staf1 at WPB
He said it would be difficult to find
men who had worked "as diligently
and effectively for war production. ="
And that goes for reconversion,
too," he added.
