lease-Lend Program
Based on Indefinite
War, Acheson Says
By the Associated Press

~ the Associated fTess.
Congress was told today that war
planning must be based on the as
sumption that hosilities will ''go on
indefinitely, both in Europe and In
the Far East"
Assistant Secretary of State Dean
Acheson. appearing before the House
! Foreign Affairs Committee, said
that, although ''the military situa-
tion appears to be favorable to our
cause In nearly all areas of the
j world" rosy predictions "can only
lead us to error"
Mr.. Acheson testified in support of
the administrators request for an
, extension of the Lease-Lend Act. a
request which has prompted Repub-
hcans to ask for data on postwar
reconstruction plans.
Would Wait on Farley.
One COP committee member, Rep
resentative Vorys of Ohio, proposed
q delay in extension of lease lend
beyond its present June 80 expira-
ton date until we know the agree
ments made by the Big Three in
the Black Sea area"
Chairman Bloom and Represen-
tative Wadsworth, Republican, of
New York, predicted, however, that
the extension would be voted as
requested without serious difficulty
On questioning by Mr.. Bloom,
Lease-Lend Administrator Leo T.

the program is purely "a military
aid for prosecution of the war" and
will have nothing to do with eco
nomic aid to foreign governments
after the war.
That is the function of the
United Nations Relief and Rehabii-
tation Administration, Mr.. Crowley
said.
Mr.. Vorys had requested detailed
reports of UNRRA and other world
economic plans.
"The people and the Congress
must know within the next six
months what, if any, part the
United States will take in the re-
construction and rehabilitation of
Europe" Mr.. Vorys said.
Lease Lend Status Sought.
IT want to know whether lease
lend will be a part of that program"
he said. THE President has said
1t will not be but we have these
programs: Immediate relief and
civil support for liberated areas, pro-
vided by the military, relief and
rehabilitation work after the mill
tary steps out, permanent recon-
struction as contemplated in the
Breton Woods agreements.
I'VE can't divide these things into
water-tight compartments" he told
q reporter. I'VE have to have the |
whole picture in order to legislate
intelligently on the future of lease
lend"
Mr.. Vorys said there is no ques-
ton in Congress but what lease
lend aid should be continued so
long as the fighting goes on.

WASHINGTON (LPA)-Ameri. can ex-servicemen are returning home to find that they and their families are homeless. This situa. ton, which one labor leader has called "catastrophic," has finally shaken official Washington into taking action to solve the housing shortage. From every major city there have come moving stories of the plight of returning servicemen.
 Rep. Wright Patman, taking the bull by the horns, has introduced a bill intended to establish price ceilings over new construction, and to estab- lish ceilings on existing housing as we'll. In addition, his bill would en- power a housing ear" to allocate materials and where necessary to sub sidize the construction of new low cost housing accommodations. Labor spokesmen are being heard on the Pat man bill, H.R. 476l, this week.
 AFL Housing Committee secretary Boris Shiskin has indicated that the AFL stands back of the principles of the bill, although it has reservations about specific sections of the measure which the AFL believes might we'll lead to further prohteering by home builders.

.Debunking Some
 Misconceptions Of Norton Bill
Measure Threatens Collec. tive Bargaining Through
 Restrictions

WASHINCTON-FP)-Apop popu- lar misconception about the Tru- man proposal for the peaceful set- clement of labor disputes is that it is merely the extension of the sys- tenn long applied to the railroad workers into the industrial field.
 This false assumption is encouraged by many newspapers and by a good many congressman in attempting to show that the measure is really mild and that labor's objections are not soundly based.
 THREATENS BARGAINING
 As 2 matter of fact, the Norton bill CHR. 49O8) carrying the Tru- man proposals, is a real threat to
