The Richmond News-Leader
found four trends in the voting:
American labor canont be led
to the polls like so many sheep.
City voters are shifting a more
conservative political philosophy.
The Nation is dissatisfied with the
administrations conduct of for
eign affairs. A widespread revolt
has set in against Fair Deal pro-
posals and Fair Deal spending"
The Chicago Tribune said that
"our kind of Republicans was de-
nounced as isolationist" but "the
more sharply this issue was raised.
the more clear cut and over
whelmingly the victory in favor Of
America.
"The time has come for a new

from the word. they esteem it,"

interpreted as a vote for return

One of the results of Tuesdays
election may be that President
Truman will be able to fill a num-
ber OF top jobs for which he has
a hard time finding takers.
Administration circles specu-
lated today whether there may be
solutions for some of the knotty
appointment problems among the
Senators, Representatives and
State Governors who failed of
election.
The filling of two jobs in the
defense program has been of par
tlcuIar concern. One is director
OF price stabilization in the Eco
nomlc Sterilization Agency. The
other is director of civilian de-
tense.
Since Chester Bowles, who failed
OF reelection as Governor of
Connecticut, had been OPA ad-
mlnistrator during World War II,
his name cropped up in specula-
tlon over filling the price stabiliza-
ton post.
Criticized Congress.
When Mr.. Bowles quit the ad-
ministration in June, 1916, how
ever. he let loose some barbed
shafts at Congress for passing a
price control extension bill in
which control powers were cur
tailed.
He was made OPA director in
october, 1943. He put business
men in price control jobs which

use on his farm. In all he pur-
chased less than $4,000 worth
of goods.
In the course of his purchases
he noticed that aircraft COM
puters" were advertised for sale at
5 cents apiece. Thinking they
were something Like a slide-rule
device, he wrote and ordered the
lot Of them.
In his letter he asked that the
instruments be sent to him "by
parcel post"
Stored On Open Lot.
The surplus property officer re-
piled that it would be impossible
the instruments were too bulky
and were stored in the open on an
acre lot.
With that, the purchaser hurried
to Dallas to see what he had
bought. When he learned what
the instruments were-intricate
mechanisms used in aircraft fire
control-he sought to get out of
the contract for their purchase.
1t wasn't the meager cost that
bothered him. 1t was the thought
of moving them and storing them
and the cost that involved.
But the surplus sales officer was
adamant. He insisted the pur-|
chaser was bound by the contract
and had to accept the instruments.
So the former naval officer, then
a farmer, had them carried away
and stored in a warehouse.
Profit of Nearly 100000.
AS Senator johnson quoted the
purchaser as saying, the surplus
Office was delighted to unload what
it thought was a lot of junk on

Later, the Purchaser wrote the
Air Force procurement Office here
in Washington, inquiring if the
Air Force had any need for such
things.
AS Senator johnson related, Air
Force officers soon arrived at the
purchasers home to inspect the
instruments.

Congress during the war.
But when the war ended a
clamor arose in some quarters
for elimination of price controls.
Mr.. Bowles launched a campaign
to keep the lid on, but lost.
His appointment now to a Job
concerned with prices would have
to be confirmed by the Senate
where many members would re-
member Mr.. Bowles' criticism.
Several NPA Jobs Vacant.
In some quarters it was pointed
out that Mr.. Bowles, familiar with
problems of the States as the re-
suit of his service as Governor,
might be possibility for the civil
ian defense post. That Office is
now in the National Security Re
sources Board but it is expected
that when a director is found it
will be split off and set up as a
separate agency. which would give
more dignity to the post of
director.
Several jobs are still to be filed
In the National Production Au-
thority. 1t is expected that the
agency will set up an office of civil
ian requirements, an Office of labor
requirements. a compliance di-
rector and board to hear appeals

The pay in these grades is

WASHINGTON. d. C, May 10
(ADC) -- The JACL Anti-Discrimi-

it has taken no stand" on the Nc
Carran Omnibus bill on immigration
and naturalization.
In an effort to clarity a misas-

favorable to the measure, Mike Ma

nical bill is under study by JACL
Ado legal counsel.
I'VE were pleased to see that the
investigative staff which prepared
the bill Incorporated the immigra-
ton and naturalization provisions of
the Judd bill and Walter Resolution.
but these sections are only small
parts of the Omnibus bill as a whole.

Until we receive our own analy-
sis, and have studied it carefully, as
well as read analyses being prepared
by organizations primarily concerned
with immigration and naturalization,
we will not be in a position to re-
commend a stand on the McCarran
bill.
AT the same time, we also are
waiting for the official Committee

is more than 1000 pages, SO that we
can study the document in conjunc-
