Sen. Flanders Says Coal Contract Was "Appeasement''

WASHINGTON (P) - Senator Flanders R.-VtD declared yester- day that if industry as a whole copies the "appeasement" of John L. Lewis by coal and steel men, the government twill be forced to step in" with controls over wages, prices and profits.
 The New England manufacturer and laWmaker said there was an "ominous parallel" between "Tne Munich pact with the Nazis" ard the contract which the united mine workers won from northern mine owners and the U. s. Steel corporation.
 In each case, he asserted in an address prepared for the secon l economic institute of the United States chamber of commerce, peace has been purchased, but at too high a price to be repeated" |"
 Flanders, who heads one of three Senate-House sub-commit- tees investigating high prices in various sections of the country, said that these business men who now were charging what the market will bear" are building up a threat of losses and bankrupt cy in the future"
 Runaway prices" Flanders said, twill not only hasten the coming of a depression but also greatly increase its severity"

Railroads Demand lO% Freight Hike

WASHINGTON, (P) - Jacob Aronson, chief counsel for the na- tion's railroads, contended yester- day that an immediate 10 per cent increase in freight rates is the least amount needed to keep the carriers operating at a profit the rest of the year.
 Aronson, who is vice-president and general counsel of the New York Central system, opened fi- nal arguments before the Inter state Commerce Commission on the railroad5s plea for an emer- gency 10 per cent increase in freight rates pending decision on a requested 27 per cent permanent boost.
 The oral arguments for the car riers and objecting shippers a"e expected to take about two days.

PENNYCOOKS RETURN FROM VACATION IN SCOTLAND

MT. and Mrs. Charles Pennycook returned Tuesday from their trip to Glasgow, Scotland, where they have spent six weeks visiting with relatives and freinds whom they had not seen for many years.
 They state that food is still ra- toned and many things are more scarce than during the war. One egg a week is all that the Scotch people are allowed and a weeks ration of meat, invariably mutton, is an average Americans daily fare.
 The Pennycooks were kept on the go seeing various parts of Scotland, such as Dundee and Newtyle, and visiting old friends and landmarks, including an old retired Alaskan, former friend of MT. Pennycook in the early days.
 They also spent two weeks in Montreal and two weeks in Van couver. On their return they came by boat from Vancouver to White horse and on the highway from Whitehorse to Fairbanks. They stated that the highway is in ex- cellent condition.
 They are making their home in the Rydeen residence on First ave.

WASHINGTON, (P) - Republi- can Congressional leaders adopted show me" attitude today on the question of a special session of Congress.
 One of the first things President Truman is expected to do when he arrives here tomorrow follow ing his trip to South America is review the foreign situation with top diplomatic advisers, who al- ready have indicated their belief that Congress will have to deal with it before the end of this year.
 Joseph w. Martin, Jr., speaker of the House, told a news confer ence yesterday he sees no reason for a special session to consider further aid for Europe before he next scheduled meeting of the ,eG- iSlators on Jan. 3.
 He said information of his own from very good sources" indi- cated there is mo immediate dan ger" in the foreign situation.
 Secretary of State Marshall and undersecretary Lovett have inti- mated strongly that affairs abroad are so critical that a solution can not be put off until January.
 Martin, however, said he is in- formed that except in remote cases Europe has good crops this year and there should be no severe food shortages.

.0PA 10 Discharge 800
This Month, Reducing
Staff Here 10 1,4N

Another 300 employees of OPA's
national Office here are scheduled to
! be dismissed this month. reducing
the headquarters staff to 1850. BY
April OPA will be down to a rock
bottom" staff that will carry on rent
and sugar and rice controls.
This was disclosed today by an
agency spokesman who reported at
the same time that nearly half of
the 1900 persons released by OPA
here in the last two months have
found other employment.
Most of these went into industry,
he said. The total might be higher
but officials lack information on
what happens to all its ex-workers,
the spokesman said.
BY April l. the agency--now a
part of the Office of Temporary
Controls-will number $4,000 en-
ployes here and in the field. This
figure is considered essential to car
ry on remaining control programs.
The biggest item, of course, is rent
control.
$1,000 at Peak.
This will compare with the all
time peak payroll of $1,000 on July
81, 1945. OF these, $500 were en-
ployed in the national Office.
On October Is, 1916, when the
dismissals began in earnest, OPA
had $4,000 employees on it's rolls,
with 5000 working in Washington.
The agency's latest report, as of
January l, showed 10000 employees,
including 1,750 working here. The
approximately 300 slated for dis
missal this month have been en-
gagged in cleaning up records.
OF those dismissed in recent
months, stenographers were easiest
to place because of the great de-
mand in and out of Government
Placements also were easy for in
vestigators, attorneys, statisticians,
economists, business specialists, ac-
.countants, information specialists
and administrative officials.
Demand for Accountants.
The spokesman disclosed there
had been an unexpected demand for
cost accountants Firms that had
plenty of record keeping under OPA
regulations apparently found 1t
profitable to continue portion of
this accounting
Many OPA officials were on leave
from private industry and have
since returned to their old jobs.
An exception to the rule of re-
turning to old jobs is former Price
Administrator Paul Porter. He has
decided not to resume the chair
manship of the Federal Communi-
cations Commission. but has ac-
cepted a Government assignment to
head an economic mission to Greece.
