CHARGE COSTLY METAL SCARES

High Defense Officials Tell Of ‘Bungling’; Copper Study Due.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5 (U. P). —Acceptance as fact by some dol-lar-a-year men of industry estimates of defense metal supplies and demands frequently has caused “unnecessary shortage scares and led to costly bungling,” high, ranking defense officials said today. Metal reports. submitted by industry often have been “misleading and untrue,” one informed defense official said. He also hinted that executives in charge of some sections “might not have had the st interests of the defense proram at heart.” Government statistics have been nable to keep pace with changing demands for aluminum, copper, zing, steel] and other materials. This situation has been further aggravated, it was said, by the fact that many OPM officials have been placed in defense jobs calling for experience that they have not had, either in government or private business. These reports on this situation were given official character late yesterday when the Supply Priorities and Allocations Board requested the OPM to hold public hearings on all possibilities of increasing copper production as a means of clearing up the “many conflicting stories and reports on copper production.” SPAB officials have believed for some time that the critical copper shortage facing both defense and non-defense users might be alleviated with an investigation of present production rates.

LUDLOW VOTED ‘NO’ ON BILL

Hoosier Congressmen Split - On Anti-Strike Vote, Two Absent.

By DANIEL M. KIDNEY Times Staff Writer WASHINGTON, Dec. 5. — Rep. Louis Ludlow (D. ind.) voted against the Smith-Hobbs-Dies anti-strike

bill, both when it was adopted as an amendment (229-158) and when it passed by the House (252-136), the official roll-call shows today. Democratic Reps. William H. Larrabee and William T. Schulte also voted like Rep. Ludlow and the fourth Democrat from Indiana, Rep. John W. Boehne Jr. was absent in Indianapolis making an Indiana Chamber of Commerce address. Hoosier Republicans had a hard time making up their minds about the matter and most of them missed the first roll-call on both the Smith amendments and the bill's final passage. Only Reps. Charles A. Halleck and Forest A. Harness finally voted for the amendments, but they were joined in passage of the bill by their Republican colleagues, Reps. Gerald W. Landis, Earl Wilson and George W. Gillie. Indiana Republicans voting against passage of the bill were Reps. Robert A. Grant and Raymond S. Springer. Rep. Noble J. Johnson was absent. So the final roll-call shows 5

Cannon Heads Savings Loague

Times Spee CORAL, GABLES, Fis, Dec. 5. Fermor S. Cannon, president of the Railroadmen’s Federal Savings and Loan Co. of Indianapolis, yesterday was elected president of the United States Savings and Loan League at the group’s 40th annual convention here. Before joining the Railroadmen’s Building and Saving Association in 1924, Mr. Cannon was an architect in Indianapolis. He is president of the Indianapolis Board of Trade, is a director of the Indiana National Bank, and has served as a trustee of the Arthur Jordan Foundation. He is a member of the board of deacons of the Second Presbyterian Church, and is prominent in Masonic and civic organizations. In his address to the convention, which ends tonight, Mr: Cannon seid that building and loan associa« tions are prepared for whatever tasks lie ahead of them, and reminded his hearers that the association was founded in 1892 in the midst of a national depression, yet has grown s0 that the assets of its members, from about $470,000,000, now total more than $6,000,000,000.

Indiana Congressmen for the measure, 5 against and 2 absent. . Rep. Landis, who is a member of the House Labor Committee, said that missing the first roll-calls was attributable to the fact that he was trying to get suppor. for his own substitute, which would have been less drastic than the bill which was passed.
