ASKS TRUMAN
10 CALL SPECIAL.
SESSION

A special session OF congress to halt
zooming price rises at home and to
feed the hungry abroad was urged
upon President Truman by Norman
Thomas, chairman Of the national ac-
ton committee Of the Socialist party.
In an open letter to the president,
Thomas declared that: 1T is a shock
ing commentary on the profit system
and on human incapacity that the com
petition Of different European nations
for scarce supplies Of food is making
steadily more expensive the business
OF relieving hungry Europeans while
at home it drives prices to a point
which puts food beyond the reach OF
the poorest Americans"
The Socialist leader called for IAN
excess profits tax which might check
the greed Of some Of the p~rofit-takers'
plus some price control and even
r~ationing of certain essential com
modities in short supply.
Thomas concluded by insisting that
a program for permanent rehabilita'
ton of Europe requires ar end to
the breath-taking wastes Of compete
tive ornaments and urged Truman
to present to the next Assembly OF
the United Nations an appeal for com
~prehensive disarmament under ade'
quate international controls, as an
essential condition for a thoroughly
sound rehabilitation Of the broken
economy of the world under any sorl

IN COOP PROBE
CHARGED BY PATMAn
IN SEATTLE

Seattle-FP-MOre than 400 work
hardened farmers, jammed into cham
bers Of the u. S. courthouse here,
heard Rep. Wright Patman Cd, Tex
charge the current hearings on COOP
eratives are part OF "a campaign built
up by deceit and fraud leading small
businessmen of this country to believe
their competitors are tax exempt.
Patman, a minority member Of the
house small business subcommittee
probing the co-ops. drew applause
when he reminded Rep. Walter Ploeser
(R, Mo-. committee hcairman, that
Hitler didn't like co-ops. The first
thing the fascists did was to destroy
them"
Ploeser, who had prefaced the
groups first hearings in Greenbelt,
Md, with statements terming the CO.
operatives tax exempt monopolies
which threatened the small business
man, toned down his bias in the face
Of a courtroom full Of farmers.
Hostility cracked the air even as
! Ploeser asserted this committee has
not come to any conclusions and that
co-ops are merely an object Of study.
AS the hearings progressed. he and
committee counsel Willis J. Ballinger
needed representatives OF the strong
producers c~o-operatives in this area.
Ploeser asserted the occasion for the
hearings was "a flood OF complaints
from small businessmen. But Rep.
Henry Jackson Cd. Wash.), who sat In
on the sessions, charged the COM
plants were "Organized' and Patman
rounded out the picture by charging
collision between the committee lead
ership and the Pacific Northwest
Hardware & Implement Assn.
Patman read a confidential bulletin
from the association instructing mem
Der corporations to organize anti-co-
operatives witnesses to appear before
the committee. BE sure and get as
many excl competitors Of co-ops as
possible because 1t will be more i'm
pressive," the bulletin said.

of its kind in the southwest, whose
chief officer is one of the major own
