Price Program, Bowtes Says

Chester Bowles said yesterday that
the Office of Price Administration

reconversion with a three point
pricing program keyed to speed OF

signed to facilitate full produc-
ton"
Asserting that the full resources
of his Office were being thrown into
the job of setting fair reconversion
prices and setting them fast" the
OPA chief in addressing the Hart
ford Chamber of Commerce said the
program called for:
/. "Industry-wide pricing fol
those who cannot proceed under
their last ceiling prices at which
they sold in 1941 or 1912"
2. Individual price adjustments
for firms whose costs are out of
line with the rest of the industry
3. A procedure under which small
firms whose sales before the war did
not exceed $1,000 and will not ex-
ceed that volume during the next
year will compute their own ceiling
prices on a streamlined form" That
procedure, he said, would result "in
lifting the load Of red tape from
small business"

Speedy Action Seen
On Tax-Aid Program
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Plans were laid today to speed
through Congress a tax revision pro-
gram designed to improve the cash
position of business and industry by
$4,000, 100000 during reconversion.
Chairman Doughton of the House
Ways and Means Committee an
nounred he will introduce the bust
ness Lid tax bill Monday.
Representative Knutson, Repub-
lican, of Minnesota, Republican
leader of the tax-framing commit
tee, predicted hearings can be COM
pleted and the bill passed by the
House with week or 10 days.
The committee expects to open
public hearings Tuesday.
The measure proposes no material
reduction in ultimate tax burdens
but is intended to speed postwar
payments on rebates and credits due
industry. This would make billions
OF dollars available for reconversion
No change in either the individual
or corporation income tax rate is
contemplated at this time.
Mr.. Doughton's bill will embody
recommendations made jointly May

Committee and the Treasury De-

Curran Is Appointed
Attorney General 10
Fill WaIsh's Term
By the Associated Presx.

BALTIMORE, June 16.-William
Curran, a major power in Baltimore
Democratic politics for many years
has been named by Gov. OConor
to complete the unexpired attor-
ney's general term of William c
Walsh, who retired from office, ef
fective yesterday.
The Governor disclosed that Mr.
Curran would take Office in several
weeks and that Deputy Attorney
General Hall Hammond, himself a
prominent candidate for the post
given Mr.. Curran, had been asked
to direct the Office in the interim.
Mr.. Curran had advised him, the
Governor said, that he would moi
seek election to the position for Q
full term in 1916, but was interested
only in the unexpired term. Mr.
Curran plans to close out his pri-
vate practice.
The appointment yesterday came
as something of surprise, since
only the night before sources close
to the Governor intimated that Mr.
Hammond would be named.
Three men were prominently men,
toned for the post, Mr.. Curran, Mr.
Hammond and Frederick F. c.
Webb. Salisbury.
The Governor devoted much of a
six-page statement to explaining
his reasons for appointing Mr.. Cur
ran, among them being:
Strong backing of Mr.. Curran' s
candidacy from members of the bar.
His (Mr. O'Conor's) personal
knowledge through a quarter of a
century of experience in the law of
Mr.. Curran's abilities. Judgment and
general qualifications.
His belief that Mr.. Curran will
devote himself earnestly in such an
exalted legal position to the exclu-
sion of any prior considerations"
The latter point was in answer to
some criticisms of Mr.. Curran's
candidacy on the grounds that his
long partisan political activity would
initiate against his success in office.
Mr.. Curran,5 commenting on his
appointment, said it was d a.scSEage-
