Auto Big Three
Hits WPB Over
Output Divisions

DE1ROII, June 22. tUP1-Ihe
Big Three of the automobile indus
try, General Motors, Ford and
Chrysler-strongly have protested
the War Production boards alloca-
tions for passenger car output
during the last half Of 1945.
The major companies charged
that WPB's quota structure calling
for 691,018 cars from 10 producers
in the nine months beginning July
l Disseminated against their deal
ers.
They told WPB's Detroit regional
office that an 8000-car minimum
assignment for five smaller ccm-
panies would provide a cOmpetti-
tive advantage for distributors of
those firms.
DENIES FAVORITISM
A regional WPB official denied
that the quotas we're discrimina-
tory and said the Big Three would
still have a 10 to margin over
scme of the smaller companies in
any given area"
General Motors, with five diyi-
sions, drew nine-month quota OF
285, ,238 cars. Chrysler's three divi-
sions were next with 148.905. Fords
quota was fixed at 119,730.
Next to these were: Studebaker,
27,825; Hudson, 2l,602; Packard,
2O,118; Nash, 1850, and WHY'S
Overland, Graham Paige, and
Crosley, 5000 each.
The spokesman said the quotas
provided starting figure only, ana
he warned that these are quite
temporary in nature"
Productions conditions, partic-
ularly the problem of material
supply, may change within few
weeks, he said Adjustments may
be expected on a fair basis VIXEN
special conditions warrant"
All companies agreed they will
be kept busy meeting the early
quotas once production starts, how
ever, most of them-especially the
Big Three-insist their quotas will
not occupy facilities and available
manpower.
BY EARLY FALL
First face-lifted 1912 models are
due in early fall, with Ford con-
ceded an edge in getting INTO pro-
duction. Hudson, Packard, Stude-
baker, Nash and Willys are other
anticipated leaders.
These cars will be distributed un-
der rigid government rationing
controls, the WPB said. The ave
rage motorist will have to wait a
year and a half to two years, the
industry believes.
Production in the IL months
starting July is expected to be
2,146,000 passenger cars. An in
dustry-wide production rate of g.
100000 a year is the goal. Top
annual production before the war
was 100000 in 1929.
Objection to the quotas by the
Big Three was based on the con-
tention that the Big Three dealers
across the nation would be allowed
frcm one to four cars each, while
distributors of smaller companies
at the same time would have 10 to
II cars available.

WASHINGTON, June %. CUP)-
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower wants
to teach the German people that
crime doesn't pay"
He wants to do it by Furnishing
those responsible for war crimes,
not the German people as a whole.
In measured words the five-star
general sounded the theme of this
country's participation in the mill
tary occupation of Germany.
You can't build peace on hate
or with a club" he declared.
You must find the war criminals
and all must be punished. That's
the only way 1 know to teach them
that crime doesn't pay"
Eisenhower, who is head of oc-
cupying forces in the American Sec
ton of Germany and also U. S. rep
reSentatlve on the Allied control
council in Berlin, made his views
clear following his triumphant re-
turn to America.
MUST BE DESTROYED
AS for punishment, Eisenhower
said the German general staff which
has planned wars since 1906 must
be destroyed. Members must be seq
regated SO they cannot pass on their

doctrines. Their records must be de-
stroyed.
He said 5000 German war crimi-
mails already had been segregated
by Anglo American forces and there
would be others. He said members
of the storm troops who were en-
rolled up to September, 1914, should
be considered war criminals or at
least that the burden of proving
they were not should be on them.
After that date Hitler filled SIS
ranks where he could.
Eisenhower also gave Americans a
clearer picture than they have had
to date of the U. S. army's post
war setup in Europe. This is the out
look:
FORCES OUTLINED

ton whether they would be repatri-
ated permanently or redeployed to

Great Is The OPA

we nave said at odd tines that if a little
common sense could be injected into the o.
flee of Price Administration the American peo-
pie would not have such hard time obtaining
the necessities of life. An example of OPA
dumbness, which well illustrates our point, has
just come to attention.
Among major cities hard hit by the meat
shortage is st. Louis. Housewives have daily
made the rounds of St, Louis stores in search
OF meat without success. Yet East St. Louis had
surplus of meat - more than East St. Louis
housewives had points to buy.
The meat began to spoil and East St. Louis
butchers asked the OPA to permit them to sell
their surplus to St. Louis butchers, where the
need was great and red coupons plentiful
They faced heavy loss if nothing was done
consumer market. They saw a way out of
their predicament and at the same time a
means of putting meat on St. Louis dinner
tables which had long been without it.
But the OPA said no. The meat had been al
lotted to East ST. Louis and there it must stay
and rot
A little common sense would have done the
trick. Perhaps rule would have been violat-
ed. The OPA is great on rules. 1t makes them
faster than a swallow flies. And when one is
made not even an earthquake can change it.
So the meat in East st. Louis went bad and
the housewives of St. Louis went without
Great is the OPA.

Three-Pronged Politics

ALI Landon who still Yields some influence
n the Republican party despite his overwhelm-
Ing defeat when he was a presidential candi-
date believes that the democratic left wing,
the dyed-in-the-wool new dealers, will turn to
4 third party backed by the Political Action
Committee in the next national campaign
While a split in party ranks and allegiance
usually helps the opposition to score VIC
tory, it is Mr.. Landon's belief that non-new
deal democrats backing President Truman
will appeal for republican votes and get them.
From this, as well as from other signs of the
times, it seems most probable that the next
campaign will not follow party lines but be
divided into three groups-right wingers, mid
dle-of- the-roaders, and left-wingers-and indi-
vidual voters will be guided by their prejudces
sother than previous political affiliations. The
I'd party names will remain far as the
two leaders are concerned, and if third
party comes it will receive another, but the
names themselves will be OF small moment.

welt had lived to fin h his fourth term there is
no reason to doubt that the next election would
bring about as great a change in this coun-
try as in Britain. Whatever popularity he
would have held as man would have been
overshadowed by his predisposition for bu-
reacuratic and personal dictatorship. This is
invariably the case with men who remain too
long in any position They come to think they
are indispensable and all-powerful. Mr..
Roosevelt was rapidly acquiring this attitude,
if in fact he had not already reached it.

fore will demonstrate whether President Tru-
mans simple Americanism and good sense
his lack Of showmanship and his vision of the
nations needs in these parlous times, will be
capable Of preventing complete swing to the
left. We can only hope that it does, not neces-
sarily because he is the head of the Demo-
cratic party, though that weighs heavily. but
because he has thus far in his administration
given proof of his full allegiance to the funda-
mental prime. Piles that have brought the United
States through crises in the troubled past.

Woman Cabineteer

Prime Minister Clement Attlee OF Great
Britain has given the post of Minister of Edu-
cation in his new Cabinet to a woman-Miss
Ellen Wilkinson, a former parliamentary sec
rotary in the Ministry of Home Security, fifty
four and red-headed. She is the second woman
to hold cabinet post in Britain, her confrere
being Miss Margaret Bonafield, who once was
Minister of Labor.
Maybe England's experiment of awarding a
portfolio to a woman will be happier than
ours Our only experiment, conducted by Presi-
dent Roosevelt, proved unsatisfactory Miss
Perkins, whom Roosevelt made Secretary of
Labor, and retained in the same post through
three administrations and up to his death in
the fourth, was so invertibrate that her patron,
the President, had to use his extraordinary
war powers to surround her with boards at
great public expense to cover up for her
Mr.. Attlee may have a pleasanter exps-
rience. Let us hope he does Miss Wilkinson
may have the necessary vision and mental
outlook to preside over Britain's educational
program with outstanding success. At any rate
Britain has great advantage over the United
States in that its education program has Cab
met representation.
