It has come to be the Gus
tom for members of the huge
Commerce Department staff
to call at their chiefs office
at Christmas time and he
looks forward to greeting
them. This has produced
evidence that he might have
rivaled Sherlock Holmes as a
detective.
One days callers included
a group which had come In
from the Census Bureau at
Suitland, Md. Comparing
notes later, they found each
had had the same experience.
The Secretary, after shaking
hands and hearing the call
er's name, had remarked,
"Oh, yes. Of the Census
Bureau"
Since their work had not
brought them into frequent
contact with Mr.. Sawyer, they
wondered how he was able
to identify them. Finally,
some one asked him and this
was his explanation:

they must have come some

When business seemed
headed for a tailspin In 1949,
he took to the road. He
travelled 10000 miles and held
meetings with representatives
of business, labor and State
and local governments In 20
cities. Younger aides who
accompanied him found he
set a grueling pace. He
brought back ideas and left
confidence with those he met.
II told them things were 60

did," he recalls.
Mr.. Sawyer. who is 63, was
born In Cincinnati. AS a
young lawyer, he became ac-
tive in Democratic politics
in a city dominated by Re-
publicans. He explains his
initial political leaning this
way: II was stubborn and
contrary and every one
around me was a Republican"
He has served In the Cincin-

as Democratic national COM

became glaringly apparent.
Their use in civilian produc-
ton was increasing. When
Mr.. Sawyer was assigned this
phase of the economy to con-
troll, he already had selected
william H. Harrison. head Of
the International Telephone
& Telegraph Co.. as NPA's
administrator. The agency
got rolling quickly. It began
cutting back the civilian use
of scarce materials.
This is a we'll -thought-out
program, not a spasmodic
one," Mr.. Sawyer said of
NPA's policies. I'VE have to
go right ahead and get ready
for every eventuality."
Taking the job of Secretary
back in May, l948, Mr.. Sawyer
regarded it as an oppor-
tunity to interpret Govern
ment to businessmen and
businessmen to Government.
Basically. he believes in pri-
vate enterprise, that profits
are the spark plugs of business
endeavor and that business
men know more about their
business than Government
officials.
Both industry and Gov
ernment must be big enough
to work effectively, but not so
big, as to pass the boundaries
of human understanding or
concern for the individual
welfare, rights and freedoms
of all Americans" he told one
group in a speech. In an
other talk on "The New Lib
eralism," he placed against
the conception of dog -eat-dog
competition among the vari-
GUS sectors of the economy
the idea of balance. that there
Is "a middle ground which Is
best for all In the long rum"

WHEN CHARLES SAWYER

visitor to Washington might
put him down as a college
president.
The visitor would take In

phrase well turned out" for
his dress and note that he
appeared to. know exactly
where he was going. The
visitor would then, perhaps,
amplify his guess: A prosper
Gus president of a prosperous
college.
With Mr.. Sawyer as Secre-
tary. the Commerce Depart

basis that a Government de-
