THE QUESTION OF WAGE CONTROLS

President Harry Truman's recent announcement that
he would replace resigned industrial members of the Wage
Sterilization Board and another statement the Chief
Executive that economic controls should be extended be-
yond next April 30th, show that there wide of
disagreement the need for wage and other controls
1t will be recalled that all members represent
ing industry, quit the Wage Sterilization Board this month
in protest against the Presidents action in over-rung
the Board in granting a coal-mine wage increase.
Mr. Truman has been charged with having made a
deal with John L. Lewis shortly before the election
the wage increase in the coalmining industry Whether
not these charges correct the Presidents action did
appear to rather weak one since he, himself admitted
that he granting the increase partially to prevent dis
sension at the outset of Administration Whatever
the reasons the Wage Sterilization Board was disuson-
ed both business and many millions of citi-
zens
In this connection 1t is interesting to note that Roger
Putnam Economic Sterilization Administrator stepping
down from this post in the future Putnam not
favor of granting Lewss wage demands
Since Mr.. Truman granted these wage hikes, consid-
cradle sentiment has developed opposing ALL
trolls Perhaps the strongest opposition has developed
against the Wage Sterilization Board Even labor unions
have out in favor of end economic controls The
United States Chamber of Commerce has openly urged all
business men to refuse posts the WSB and both the
Chamber and the National Association of Manufacturers
are in favor of ending both wage and price controls
is probably accurate to say that opposition to all
economic controls is at higher pitch today than it has
been since the beginning of the Korean War Whether
not some controls needed, Mr. Trumans action-in
allowing the coal miners steep hike-did not do
the for controls any good On the contrary Mr. Tr-

Key West and Tarpon Springs
will be the location for forth
coming goth Century Fox film on
the sponge-diving industry, a tip
to this column revealed today.
The director of the film will be
a house guest of a Key West resi-
dent in February. At that time
this column will publish full de-
tails on the film.
For now the only information re-
leased is that the film will be shot
in technicolor here and Tarpon
Springs. The reader who turned in
the tip said she will give us the
word when the director comes to
town.
Key West lost the sponge indus
try to Tarpon Springs early in the
century when a blight hit the
growth. Though sponges are still
available for intrepid divers, and
those who wish the arduous task
of curing them, the industry itself
has fled.
During the last thirty years of
the 10Th century, sponge diving was
a booming enterprise here. One OF
the leading storehouses for the
Sponges was located on Greene and
Simonton Street where a concrete
garage is going up today.

Here was the result four months

The nation was completely upset.
The sudden wave of overwhelming

The country faced the greatest

1t was a pleasure to hear this
week that Police 1t. Jimmy James
and Officer Bienvienido Perez had
received concentrations from the
FBI. Selfish pleasure and self-con-
ceit, I'll have to admit, because
this writer either through news

has called attention to the eff
cency of both of these men in the
past.
Because of his youth and the
peculiar political Set-up at City
Hall, 1t. James has upon occasion
acted rashly. Given leader such
as former Captain of Police, Harry
Lee Baker, James could soon de-
velope his personality and ability
and rank with any law enforce
ment officer in the country.
Officer Perez has always been
one of our best policemen here
in Key West. He is stern but
friendly. He was at one time
Chief of Police and I'd like to see
him in that capacity again. Perez
is capable man VINO can readily
distinguish right from wrong and
no one, including President Eisen-
hover, is going to corrupt his
moral honor and sense of fair
