THOMAS WAGNER MEASURE TO CURB PRICES
IS INTRODUCED. BACKED BY Clio

but said the clio does not think price
reduction can be achieved. Taylor
has been asked, in view of this, to
shift support from his own measure
to the Wagner bill.
Reeves proposals to the committee,
given in the name Of the CLIO, and
embodied in the new bill would:
/. Freeze all prices as of January
5, l94S until price control machinery
could be set in operation and unnec-
essary price ceilings could be re-
moved.
9. Authorize the President to ration
commodities which affect the cost of
living and production, with az eco
monte sterilization co-ordinator III
charge of price control and ~rationine
programs. Authority would extend
through March 1850.
3. Enforcement would be along the
lines Of the old OPA, with a $4,000
maximum penalty for violators and
right to appeal to an emergency court
for adjustments.
4. Control bank credits.
Reduction Of present high prices
a main point in the Taylor bill, would
not be possible under the Thomas
Wagner measure except in two spe
cial instances - an unusually higl
price for seasonal products at tn,
January 5 freeze date. or an expert
mental high price on an item newl,
on the market. Otherwise. the bill
would try to put a lid on today's livinI
costs rather than reduce them.

that the job was filled that Green told
reporters the offer had been made and
that Wheeler had accepted.
In Washington, however, Wheeler
said he had doubts about being able
to give full time to the post, which
would pay about 100000 yearly, and
also told newsman he differed with
the labor leaders on two major issues
the wisdom of fighting against re-
election Of all members of congress
who voted for the Taft-Hartley bill,
and the wisdom Of about support for
the Marshall plan.
Wheeler said he assumed some may

gresham who had been a friend OF
labor and voted for the bill thereby

Even as Thomas rose in the senate
to offer his measure, which is de-
signed to curb further rises in the

Of this sort. AS he outlined the pro-
visions Of a bill adequate to the ur-
jgent need of fighting initiation, news
reached the committee room that
Thomas had acted.
Other bills before the group. REEVE
said, were not right. He said the
Barley bill Is. 1889, containing the
main points of President Truman's
anti-inflation program, will not eff
fectively control prices. The CLIO
cannot support a bill which confines
price control to the wholesale Level

nor can we support a bill which fixes

1922. He was running mate Of Old

good voting record on labor issues for
some years, but broke sharply with
President Roosevelt in 1897 over
FDR's attempt to liberalize the SUI

From that time on he bucked FDR
on many important issues, domestic

ABRAHAM LINCOLN
Now, more than at any other time, it appears that
we should hesitate a moment and give recognition to the
marvellous qualities Of Abraham Lincoln.
He was born in humble circumstances and remained
humble even when he was President of the United
States. The very simplicity of his faith makes one
stop and wonder. Abraham Lincoln was a friend of
the working people. Doesn't it seem strange that the
great men Of history whose names are cherished and
reverenced should all be of the same type? They all
carried a clear realization that the working people are
the "Salt Of the Earth as the Bible SO clearly states.
They all seem to have a sympathetic understanding and
generosity toward the common people.
Men and women are hoping today, perhaps more
than at any other time in the history of the world, that
the greed and corruption and the crime that has marked
American social and governmental life shall be done
away with and that a new era will be born.
