Hoffman 5 Support !
|0f Eisenhower MAY
Lead 10 Political Post
by JOCK Bell
Associated Press Ssuff Wriier

Z
The emergence Of Paul G. Hoff-
man as one Of the strong men of
the Eisenhower presidential cam
Ipaign stirred speculation today
about his political future.
Mr.. Hoffman apparently has
taken over the job of trying to
convince business leaders of the
country that they ought to get
behind the drive to make Gen.
Eisenhower the G. o. p. candidate.
In this non-titled capacity. Mr..
Hoffman can be expected to rep
resent the element of Gen. Eisen-
hower's supporters outside Gov
lernment, as contrasted with Gov.
Dewey of New York and Senators
Lodge Of Massachusetts,. Duff OF
Pennsylvania and Carlson of Kan
sas and other Office holders.
Mr.. Hoffman's nominal boss is
W. Walter Williams of Seattle,
Wash. just named to replace
Arthur H. Vandenberg. jr., as
chairman of the Citizens for
Eisenhower Committee.
Williams in Conflict.
Mr.. Williams, whose name isn't
as well known nationally as Mr..
Hoffman's. already is reported in
trouble in his home State be-
cause of his apparent intention
to hang on to his job as Washing
ton State G.. o. P. chairman while
campaigning actively for Gen.
Eisenhower.
Mr.. Hoffman, former Economic
Cooperation Administrator, has
had an opportunity to establish a
personal relationship with Gen.
Eisenhower not shared by such
supporters as Senators Duff, Lodge
and some of the others.
It was regarded as significant
here that when the Eisenhower
camp wanted a personal plea made
to the General to speed up his
return to the United States, Mr..
Hoffman was the man who car
ried the message to the generals
Paris headquarters.
From this and other incidents,
some of Gen. Eisenhower's sup
porters-looking into a distant
and nebulous future-have con-
cluded that if the general were
elected President, Mr.. Hoffman
would be likely to land in the
cabinet.
Speculation ON Position.
They point to Mr.. Hoffman's
acquaintance with world affairs
through ECA as an indication he
might well become the generals
choice for Secretary of State-a
job that most of them previously
had speculated might go to Gov.
Dewey of New York in the event
of a November victory. +
Mr.. Hoffman. now head of the
Ford Foundation, has the added
recommendation for this role in
that he was the personal choice
Of the late Senator Vandenberg
for ECA chief. Until his death.
Senator Vandenberg was the
party's spokesman for the kind
of foreign policy to which Gen.
Eisenhower apparently subscribes.

Government Reports
Cost Of Living Drops
In City and Nation

The Government announced yes
terday that the cost of living in
Washington and the country
generally had dropped for the
first time in nine months. The
new figures will result in wage
cut Of 1-cent-per- -hour for 1,150,-
900 railroad workers.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics
said retail prices of goods and
services in Washington were A per
cent lower in mid-February than
on November Is. according to the
Consumers Price Index. The de-
crease was chiefly due to a decline
in the three-month period of %
per cent in food prices, 1.6 per cent
in apparel and drop of 1.9 per
cent in the price of house furnish
|ings.
Living costs in Washington are
surveyed every three months. The
cost index for Washington was
1889 of the 1858 average on
February is. On November IS it
stood at 184.7.
Sharpest Fall Since 1949.
For the country as a whole the
bureau said that living costs
dropped 6 per cent between Janu-
ary Is and February Is. the effec-.
tive date Of the present survey.
This was the sharpest decline in
living costs since December, 1949,
the report showed, and the first
decline since last June. How
ever. the figure for January
Is was 10.4 per cent higher than
in June, 1850, when Korea was in
vaded.
Wage rates of the railroad
workers are tied by contract to
the rise and fall of prices on the
Governments old method of cal
|culating costs. The Bureau said
prices dropped about one half of
l per cent on the old index from
mid-January to February Is.
Railroad management said that
the wage cut Of / cent per hour
would be reflected in the pay
envelopes Of the workers April /.
It was the first reduction in pay
suffered by workers since it be-
came popular to include cost of
living clauses in labor contracts.
Index Stands at 1879.
On the Governments new liv-
ing cost index the thermometer
for the country as whole stood
at 1879 per cent Of the 1935-39
average on February Is. A month
earlier the index was at 1891 per
cent of the base period.
AS in Washington. a sharp de-
cline in food prices and the cost Of
wearing apparel and house fur
|nishings were responsible for the
generally lower level Of all living
costs.
In Washington, the Bureau of
Labor Statistics said, rents in
creased one per cent between No
|vember and February. and its mis-
|cellaneous category Of goods and
services was up 1.3 per cent in the
period. The cost here of fuel, elec-
tricity and refrigeration remained
unchanged.
Fruits and Vegetables Drop.
Locally, prices of fruits and
vegetables were IL per cent lower
February Is than they were three
months ago. The Government
said this reflected largely an 11.2
Iper cent average decrease in
prices of fresh vegetables and a
fractional decline for frozen vege-
tables. Egg prices here decreased
II per cent over the month and
36.2 per cent in the three-month
period.
Decreases from January to Feb
ruary were reflected here In the
indexes for meats, poultry and
fish (down IL per cent?. dairy
products (down / per cent? fats
and oils, (down 1.9 per cent? and
sugar and sweets (down A per
cent?
The bureau calculates only
food prices in Washington on a
monthly basis.

Leaders Of Business
And Labor on Safety

business and labor leaders tomor-
row on industrial safety.
The occasion is the start Of the
1852 Presidents Conference on In
dustrial Safety, convening at the
Departmental Auditorium.
The three-day conference viii
develop ideas on how to reduce the
accident toll in American industry.
Mr.. Truman's attack on the
problem began in 1948. when he
first proposed q Nation wide con-
ference on the subject. The firstI
full-scale meeting was held inl
1949. Since then. conference COM
mittees have worked on specific
problems, and area meetings have
been held in 1S States. Hawaii and
the District of Columbia.
The Labor Department reports
that injuries in 1851 in all kinds |
Of work totaled 81 million. Acci-
dents killed $4,000 workers and
permanently disabled 1000.
Industry has reduced its acci-
dent rate since Mr.. Truman spot |
lighted the problem, the Labor
Department said. In 1948, the ac-
cident rate per million man-hours
of work was 17.2. In .1949, 1t was
14.5. Industrial expansion as q
result of the Korean war increased
the rate to lat In 1850, and to-
about 15.5 last year.

II am. tomorrow, delegates will
hear Secretary Of Labor Tobin at

Council at 2 pm.

educational leaders will speak

Farmers Union Urges
Higher Price Supports
BY ih.'Assosio..d Press

81
The National Farmers Union
Is calling on its members to flood
Congress with letters and tele-
grams urging immediate legisla-
ton boosting farm price supports.
Nothing helps more" the
union said. than letters from
home constituents"
The appeal for a parrage of let
ters was made in the farm organi-
zation's weekly news letter. It
said legislation it desires is pend
ing before House and Senate Ag-
riculture Committees. but that
these groups do not seem inclined
to act this session.
The union is the only major ma
tional farm organization to in
dorse Truman administration
farm policies, including the con-
troyersial Brannan Farm Plan.
This plan would provide higher
price supports than does present
law, and. would make broad use
Of subsidies to maintain high
level of farm income.
The union wants price supports
at. 100 per cent of parity. Sup
ports for most Of the commodi-
ties now being supported are at
80 per cent of parity. Parity is
q standard for measuring farm
prices. 1t is declared by law to
be equally fair to farmers and
those who buy their products.
The letter said favorable farm
legislation would be passed If it
could be gotten out Of the COM
mites for a vote.
