Protests on Extension of Service No Longer in Order, He Says.

By DANIEL M. KIDNEY Times Staff Writer

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.—Writ-

Ind.), today advised. her to make the best of the situation since the draft extension now is the law of the land. “I realize fathers and mothers and wives of soldiers feel the Government was unfair in extending the draft service after the men were enlisted,” the Hoosier Senator wrote. “I opposed the extension, but it now is the law of the land, and we will have to work out our problems the best we can within the law.” Rep. William H. Larrabee (D. Ind.) was the only Hoosier in either House who voted for the draft extension. It passed the House by only a single vote, 203 to 202, so those mm Indiana who were violently opposed lo it now are blaming him.

Congratulate Larrabee

The mail to Rep. Larrabee’s office is running about 6 to 1 congratulatory, however. Although such Democratic leaders as Frank M. McHale, Democratic National Committeeman from Indi{ana; Bowman Elder and Dr. Carle[ton B. McCulloch congratulated him, there was no word from Governor Henry F. Schricker. The State House letters were from Deputy Attorney General John R. Walsh, Thurman A. Gottschalk and Hugh A. Barnhart. A former Republican State Senator, Claude S. Steele, editor and publisher of the Starke County Republican, wrote: ‘You voted for your country, the others for fear they might lose a vote back home.” letter signed by Felix and Edna G. Vonnegut and Ella M. Goth, all of Indianapolis, reads:

make might are proud of you. Your vote saved our country from the shame of voluntary impotence at a time when sheer force threatens the complete and final overthrow of

freedom and justice in the world.”|

Several bitter letters and postcards came from the other side. The following from Indianapolis was unsigned: “Don’t you think the mothers of Indiana should take up a collection and buy you a gun so you can enter the war? I'm sure you haven't a son who may have to give his life for the few who want war. Urge Pepper and Knox to join the Marines.” Senator Willis continues to receive congratulations for voting against the measure. The following came from Victor T. Coonrod of the America First Committee at Gary: “I wish to commend you on your stand. Any person who has broken his promises time and time again and who has become the puppet of a foreign power should be subjected to some measure of discipline that would convince him that the American people mean business.”

FORESEE MORE GAINS IN PRICES

Substantial Increase General Level Due, Say U. S. Experts.

WASHINGTON, ‘Aug. 20 (U. P.). —Government economists predicted

today a further substantial increase in the general level of prices. The Bureau of Agricultural Eco= nomics said in a report that “the basis for a general price rise of ine flationary proportions” has devel= oped because of the rush of “alarmed consumers” to buy in ade vance of needs and the “frantic efforts” of many businessmen to build up large inventories in anticipation of a price rise and a shortage of supplies. “With formal price fixing for ine dustrial commodities under consideration and conscription of induse trial inventories provided for by legislation now in process,” the ree port said, “the incentive for busie nessmen to bid up prices in an at= tempt to insure adequate supplies or for protection against future price advances may be reduced. “These factors no doubt will off set only in part the influences which are pushing prices upward, but they appear to be sufficiently strong to prevent any runaway price inflation, at least for the time be=ing. The outlook continues to be for a substantial further increase in the general level of prices.” The economists anticipated that industrial activity, now at record heights, may “flatten out,” during the next several months because of the shift from civilian to defense production. They said that production of de= fense equipment will continue to expand during the next few months, but largely at the expense of civil ian goods.

HURT IN GARAGE MISHAP
