DO WE WANT sNYDERvILLEs?-

Nv WE WHNl oN DETF ILLEfo -
Two girls were dragged off to jail
recently for pitching tent on Bos-
ton Common, veterans have been de-
manding the right TO build shacks for
their families in Central Park in New
York, hundreds of frantic appeals for
apartments-any size, anywhere, any
price-fi!l the classified ads.
Those are symptoms Of the worst
housing shortage ever foisted on this
nation, and they're only the beginning.
Unless decisive action is taken quick
~, watch for rebirth of the old sum
communities Of tents and shacks that
mushroom in deserted lots, along river
banks, on the outskirts of town.
Only to bring the story up to date,
these new housing projects should be
called Snydervilles in tribute to Re-
conversion Director John w. Snyder,
whose actions thus far have endeared
him solely to the real estate interests.
The way to solve the housing crisis
is not just to insure greatly expanded
new construction, as Snyder has done,
but to make sure that new homes are
moderately priced and that price cell
ings are set by legislation on both
new and old homes. 1t won't help the
veterans or thousands of other home
seekers if there are apartments avail
able-but at prices they can't afford.
The inflationary effects Of Snyder's
initial order dropping all wartime con-
trolls on construction is already being
felt. A page l story in the Wall Street
Journal blithely announces, Rents Are
Going Up: and predicts that an ordin-
ary Broom apartment which used to
rent for $50 month or less will bring
at least 800 to $1C0 a month in the
new apartment houses.
And those rentals are just a fore
taste of what will happen generally
if industry wins in its fight against
OPA price ceilings on existing dwell
ings. Snyder is reported sitting up
nights trying to decide whether to bow
to the landlords demands for dump
ing all housing price controls or to
heed the good advice of OPA officials
who are calling for legislation against
real estate initiation. Organized labor
can help him make up his mind by
writing to him and their congressman
urging them to legislate price controls
on housing.

Committees On
Mining To Meet
Soon In London

Paris 0LNS). - International tri-
partite industrial committees for coal
mining and inland transport set up by
the international Labor Organization
will meet for the first time in London
in December. This was decided by the
governing body Of the international
Labor Office which met in Paris prior
TO the opening Of the international
Labor Conference here Oct. Is.
1t was also decided that each coun-
try's delegation would comprise 6
members - 2 representatives each
from government, management, labor.
The ILO announced that the inter
national organizations of trade unions
in the coal mining and transport in
dustries'wll be invited to send repre-
sentatives to the London meeting. The
primary function of the committee at
these first meetings will be to facili
tate an exchange of views between
labor, management and government
on the problems of the industries.
In addition the governing body de-
cided to hold meetings in Brussels
next year of committees for the tex
tile, building, civil engineering and
public works industries. 1t may be re-
called that it was decided by the gov
erning body of the ILO at it's oath
session in London last January to set
up committees for Z wain industries,
the others being petroleum production
and refining, iron and steel produc-
ton, and metal trades.

Cattle State Senator's
Muster Opposition
Ito S18 Ceiling Price

Opposition to the Governments
decision to place an $l8 ceiling on
livestock mounted today as Senator
Butler, Republican, of Nebraska an
nounced bipartisan meeting of
would be held in the next few DAYS
to go over the entire livestock
problem =
At the same time, aides of Senator
WEerry, Republican, of Nebraska
disclosed that he planned to re-
introduce resolution calling for
special flve-man committee to in
vestigate conditions prevailing in
production. distribution and mar
keting of livestock and the effect
|of Government directives on such
production.
From New York came reports of
dissatisfaction with the ceiling or
der, which is slated to go into effect
January %. Markets Commissioner
Henry M. Brundage said the action
accomplishes absolutely nothing
and "just means more black market
operations" Jack Kranis, counsel
for the New York Retail Meat
Deealers Action Committee, declared
the new ceiling would mean a Accent
increase a pound to consumers, the
Associated Press reported. >
At Chicago, P. o. Wilson, secre-
tary manager of the National Live
stock Producers Association, said
the order showed lack of under
standing by Government officials
ION what it takes to get beef pro-
duced." But, he said, the order
is an improvement over an original
proposal for ceiling of $17.50.
Senator Reed Republican, of
Kansas charged that the order con-
stituted another OPA blunder"
which, he claimed, would result in
reduction of 3,5OO,O0O,000 pounds
of beef production this year.
Opposed to these views, however.
were comments from Senator
o Mahoney, Democrat, of Wyoming
who said he believed cattle feeders
generally will be satisfied with the
new ceiling. Likewise, the Ameri-
can Meat Institute in Chicago de-
clared that if ceilings are rigidly
enforced, it should dry up black
markets and make more beef avail
able to the armed forces.
Price Administrator Bowles, at a
news conference late yesterday
hailed the action as "a boon to
housewives and dealers in helping
them to get their fair share of all
grades of beef at fair prices" He
also insisted that the ceiling would
not adversely affect packers, feed
'ers or producers of livestock.
Declaring that "our entire pro-
gram of meat price control was in
danger of breakdown" Mr.
Bowles pointed out that live cattle
represented the only important
basic food commodity not yet un-
der ceilings. "As prices of better
grade animals rose and beef ceiling
prices held stable, a large percentage
of choice and good grade cattle went
to a minority of slaughterers selling
meat above ceiling prices" he de-
clared.
