Controls Not Feasible
PANEL IN JEOPARDY
Overriding OF Decisions
Seen As Reason Back OF
z New designations

WASHINGTON, Oct. g.
(UP)-Industry members Of
President Truman's W a g e
Sterilization board resigned
Wednesday and threw full
responsibility for administra-
ton of pay controls on the
White House.
In an accompanying letter to
Mr.. Truman, the two men,
bers, A. Coleman Barrett and
Earl N. Cannon, said it had
been apparent to them, since
the AFL Maritime wage case was
decided three weeks ago, that pay
controls are no longer feasible.
They concluded by urging the
President to lift all wage controls.
The action placed the board in
jeopardy. Informed sources said
that it put it squarely up to the
President whether the agency shall
be abolished or its functions trans
ferred to the White House.
Barrett and Cannon, who asked
that their designations be effective
as of Thursday, were said to feel
that, since Mr.. Truman and
Sterilization Director John r.
Steelman can override their de-
cisions, as was the case in the
Maritime decision, the President
should take full responsibility for
the success or failure of the ad-
ministration's hold-the-line p r o.
gram.
Barrett read the letter of resigna-
ton to the wage board. The
White House said the President
had not yet received it and doubted
that there would be any comment
before Thursday when MI. Tru-
man will hold a news conference.
Chairman w. Willard Wirtz and
labor members of the board had
no comment.

CETACEAN SPELL - We have
finally found out all by oursel1
something that a long succession OF
English teachers could never ex-
plain to us - the reason why Her
man Melville wrote ''Moby Dick"
He didn't write it for money. He
didn't write it for fame. He didn't
write it for the Society for the
Preservation of the Whalebone
Corset.
He wrote it because he was fore
ed to by sheer fascination. The
Great White Whale, like a mon
strous marine Frank Sinatra, had
cast its Old Black Magic over
him.
We know, because we're going

in a delicate negotiation where the

in the Middle East Mr.. Truman
has for the first time in American
history been making commitments
which place upon the Unite d

for the security of the whole re-
