Moreover, over-all civilian en-
ployment was 100000 lower in
July than in June, largely be-
cause 439, 900 persons dropped out
of the ranks of workers or job
seekers.
Census Bureau analysts said,
however, that many of them prob
ably were farm wives who did no
work in the fields during early
July because of bad weather.
Farm wives are counted as en-
ployed only when working in the
fields, for they normally do not
seek other outside jobs.
The bad weather slow down of
farming operations caused the de-
cline in overall civilian employ
ment in July. Some Government
experts had expected the total to
break above the record high OF
81 .615,0 900 set in July, 1948, due to
growing non-farm employment.
Farm employment dropped $685..
900 to an 8,440.000 total in July

this measure is enacted promptly
we can do a great deal to ease
the economic adjustments which
our defense effort will require.
"Of course, there is no objec-
ton in these circumstances, to
enactment OF additional standby
control powers which the Presi-
dent could invoke when the need
arose.
MY recommendations of July
10 were designed to meet the
problems Immediately before us.
"The Congress in its judgment
may now want to make price,
wage and rationing controls avail
able on a standby basis for use If
and when needed. but II the Con-
gress were to take this course. the
following conditions appear essen
tial.
First. these additional controls
should be made supplementary to
and not in lieu of the basic powers
contained in the defense produc-
ton bill. The production aids and
limited controls for which I have
asked are essential now.
Second, we cannot afford to
bog down or delay in enacting
what is needed at once and supple
mentary provision should be added
only if they do not prolong con-
sideration or delay action in either
house.
Third, any provisions relating
to prices and wages should not
set up a rigid formula or freeze
in advance of experience. If these
powers are now made available in
advance of widespread need, it is
simple common sense that they
must be written in a form which
allows wide discretion and f1ex-
ibility as to the method and place
and timing of application.
I Fourth, for the same reason,
any grant of price and wage au-
thority should leave open the
question of the method of admin
istration. This should remain
flexible because it cannot be sep
arated from the question of the
extent wage and price controls
actually may have to be applied. y

quest OF the North Atlantic treaty
organization council deputies to
meet briefly with that body dur
ing the current session"
