Vatican Paper Fears
Great Postwar Race
For Secret Weapons
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
VATICAN CITY, Aug. 18.-L'Os-
servatore Romano predicted today a
"feverish race for secret weapons
in the postwar world and rebuked
scientists who work on them.
The Vatican city newspaper said
in an editorial that an armament
race was an inevitable consequence
of the last atrocious episodes of the
war"
Discussing postwar prospects, the
newspaper also objected to the
transfer of persons from one country
to another to eliminate national
minorities.

overtime, downgrading Of workers
etc, as argument for easing Of wage
controls. Industry, planning to re-
convert, knows something is COM
ing, but is held by uncertainty.
3. Policy governing disposal OF
Government-owned property, par
ticularly war plants and tools, is
not sufficiently specific, in fact there
was evidence of lack of policy. Un-
certainty over acquisition Of tools
is delaying peacetime planning, par
ticularly in the West Coast air
craft industry.
4. WPB's policy Of releasing ma
terial and production controls as
rapidly as they are not needed for
war meets with almost unanimous
approval of industry-large and
small, although a few fear that big
industry and old customers might
profit from 1t at expense Of the
others. A sizeable segment Of labor
opposed the Idea.
Unemployment Aid Vital.
5. Congress must act speedily to
adopt legislation providing for
emergency unemployment compen-
sation and for better social security
legislation. This is needed both for
relief when mass layof1s from war
work come and as a means of keep
ing necessary labor in war work
now.
6. The ONCE of War Mobilization
and Reconversion apparently has
done little to tie the action Of indi-
vidual Federal agencies into pro-
gram to cover all aspects Of recon-
version. There is no overall Gov
ernment plan for orderly return to
peacetime pursuits, although many
generalities have been uttered about
necessity for full production and
employment.
Industry in all areas visited was
vehement in its denunciation of
OPA-particularly in the matter of
pricing new goods coming on the
market. The evidence In that
direction was so strong that 1t was
obvious something was wrong
Manufacturers complained Of being
so tightly squeezed by prices as
to kill the initiative to produce
OF long delays in getting prices.
OPA Slow In Action.
A manufacturer of packAging
machinery, released from war work
said he applied to OPA last jan
uary for prices on 80 machines
and had just received tentative
price for one of them. This, per-
haps, exaggerates the general sit
uation, but typifies the problem
many manufacturers are encounter
ing.
The manufacturer said the price
fixed for the one machine was too
low for profitable production. He
said there appeared little he could
do but shut down his plant until
the situation cleared.
Labor, as a whole, thought OPA
was doing a commendable job with

| In limitations of the budget given
it by Congress, although some lead
ers also were critical of pricing de-
lay. Labor believed there should be
much tighter enforcement of price
ceilings, particularly on food and
clothing-that OPA should be pro-
vided funds to hire many more en-
forcement officers.
Small Business Fearful.
Small business interests were fear
full that the little manufacturer
would be the one most injured by
the so-called cumbersome pricing
methods for civilian goods. They
pointed out that big business had
the resources to sit tight and wait
until the situation was Strengthened
out-something the small producer
could not afford to do.
The need for action in the field
Of surplus property is best por-
trayed by the experience of the
West Coast aircraft industry. The
big plane makers have tried vainly
for months to get prices and terms
on the Government-owned machin-
cry in the plants they are operat-
ing, SO they can make definite plans
for commercial work after the war.
The information has not been forth
coming, and the charge was made
that disposal agents, knowing the
war equipment must be written off
at great loss, are fearful of public
criticism.
Although the amount OF actual
reconversion underway so far in
the areas visited was so small as
to be negligible. planning was 60
ing forward on all sides. 1t ap-
peared not too late-though dan
gerously close to it-for the Gov
ernment to clarity its position in

The company, in lengthy state

union no-strike pledge, and denied
a union contention that an official

Meantime, settlement of seven
labor disputes involving some $4,000
