Considerable inquiries have been
made by the committee as to why
1000 miles of telephone cable, de-
veloped for war purposes, was Of
fered for sale by the Government at
$40 a mile, whereas the production
cost to the Government during the
war was said to have ranged from
$50 to ST. a mile. The. committee
was told Western Electric had
bought about 10000 of the $4,000
miles of this surplus.
Mr.. johnson said this equipment
was dependable" and that, while
1t could be used by telephone COM
panies as a substitute for regular
wire, in practice telephone COM
panies would replace 1t with more
costly wire as soon as possible.

Firm 5 Explanation
|0f WAA Aid Receives
Favorable Reaction
BY. Don S. Warren

An explanation by the Western
Electric Co. as to why 1t aided Gov
ernment agencies in identifying and
locating huge quantities Of surplus
telephonic wire and equipment, to-
day brought favorable reactions
from members of the House Surplus
Property Committee investigating
surplus disposal deals.
Warren F.. johnson, assistant
purchasing offlcer Of Western Elec-
tric, told the committee his COM
pany's interest in assisting War
Assets Administration officials In
finding and identifying properties
declared surplus was dictated by the
need og getting critically short
items to meet postwar telephone Gus
toner demands.
While Western Electric sent men,
bers of its staff to search declara-
tions and inspect stored surplus
material, Mr.. johnson declared fatty
his company played no part in "fix-
ing" prices at whicsh many miles of
wire and telephone equipment were
sold.
Firm Boosted by Davis.
On occasions, Western Electric
agents were asked what the COM
pany would be willing to pay, but
Mr.. johnson stressed the company
was submitting sealed bids on ma
terials offered for sale and merely
was answering inquiries as to sthii
in response to questions from Gov
ernmeut war assets oficials.
Representative Davis, Democrat
Of Tennessee. a member Of the CONF
iiittee. declared he thought Govern
ment surplus property agencies
would. have been better OF" II they
had turned the whole job Of dis
posal Of telephone equipment over
to Western Electric.
Another committeeman, Repre-
sentative Ridley, Republican, Of
Oklahoma, commented he thought
it would have been possible In the
disposal Of telephone equipment to
have "cut out the middle man.

And now comes Autumn with
It's days and nights of equal
length-days like midsummer and
nights so cool as to warn of the
approaching winter. Leaves on
the dogwood are taking on color
and showing the red berries
beneath. Sumac thrusts out its
long fingers of red along every
roadside.
For one who so loves the long,
hot summer days, when it is pos
sible to spend the greater part of
the day in the open, as does the
writer-the season brings touch
Ct melancholy. Not even the poets
can make us like Autumn though
we grant that only Spring can
touch it for beauty in it's early
stages. But James Whitcomb Riley
can have five cannot say with

like nthe sun and the meadow,
which, are not the least concerned
about the coming of winter" we
can only reflect that the sun and
the meadow do not have to
struggle with a worn out furnace.
The sunsets are gorgeous these
