War Goods FIowinQ
Back From Pacific,
Synder TeIIsCritics
By the Associoted Press

Blasting back at Senate critics,
Reconversion Director Snyder has
reported that 100000 tons of sur
plus war materials, most of them
usable by civilians, will have been
brought back from the Pacific by
September.
His statement said 1853 Army and
Navy ships already have returned
or are on the way back from the
Pacific with cargoes of leftover
material. He listed new lumber and
other building materials, machine
tools, construction machinery, equip
ment to maintain automobiles,
laboratory instruments, medical
equipment and instruments, storage
batteries, electrical equipment and
scarce metals.
The statement, issued last night,
was prompted by Senate speeches
yesterday declaring that the move
ment OF war supplies back to this
country was slow. The addresses
were made by Senators Tunnel,
Democrat, of Delaware and Know
land. Republican, of California, who
studied the question as members
OF the War Investigating Committee
on a personal tour of the Pacific
theater.
Building Materials Mentioned.
They mentioned particularly what
they said was failure to expedite
return OF building materials, con-
struction materials and small motors.
Mr.. Snyder cited shipping statistics
and said:
This means that between Feb
ruary and September. 1916, total
OF 285 Army and Navy vessels will
have arrived from Pacific ports with
a total cargo of 100000 tons of
surplus materials, the major portion
OF them new or serviceable items
usable by civilians
Ear from ignoring recommended
tions of the War Investigating Com
mlttee, he said, I'VE have studied
them carefully and acted promptly
as the record shows"
He listed specific actions taken bv
the Office of War Mobilization and
Reconversion since January. They
included instructions to the War
and Navy Departments to ship back
from the Pacific all new or service
abe civilian-type items except those
declared surplus locally for sale
within reasonable time.
Other Steps Taken.
Mr.. Snyder pointed to creation of
an lnteragency committee of Gov
ernment officials to list critical
items which should be returned. He
noted that the War Assets Admin
lstratlon had been instructed to hold
special prompt sales of this prop
erty on its arrival in the United
States"
Senator Tunnel had declared that
although nine months have elapsed
since the end of the war, MI. Snyder
has not yet today taken any posi-
tive, clear action on this most i'm
portant matter"
