Demand for ‘You Do It or 1 Will?
WASHINGTON, Sept. 8 (U. P)—
Congressional resentment against the “you-do-it-or-I-will” nature of President Roosevelt's request for
‘price control act revision Yoday over-
shadowed the main issue of fighting inflation and threatened a sharp
“hreak between congress and the White House. Leaders of both the senate and house, nevertheless, prepared legislation thut would enable the presi: dent to put price ceilings on farm { products at parity instead of 110 per cent of parity or higher. But legis- “ Jators friendly to the president’s objectives said he had made their task harder by placing a time limit - on congress. = Resentment was stirred generally by the president’s ultimatum that ~3f congress does not act by Oct. 1 he will take steps to control farm “prices by executive order.
Hope for ‘Cool Off’
Some leaders hoped that congress fvould “cool off” by the time the “house returns from its informal vagation next week and buckle down to the job of passing the requested legislation in the three weeks aldowed them. © ‘But other quarters predicted that “Bf congress does pass the legisla‘tion requested by President Roose“elt, it would also include control - over wages and salaries, Senator George W. Norris (Ind. _Neb.), a close friend of the president and usually quite friendly to “the administration’s economic aims, “regretted exceedingly” that Mr. “Roosevelt had chosen to impose a ‘time limit on congressional action. “I think a great majority of congress would be willing to repeal the prohibitions that prevent imposition of farm price ceilings at levels higher than 100 per cent. of parity,” ‘Senator Norris said.
Predicts Difficulty
. “But I am afraid the president's ‘message has. made the job of getting this legislation passed difficult. ‘There is a grave danger that congress may now not act within the prescribed limits and the president ‘will be forced to fulfil] the terms of his message. ~~ “That might easily result in:an open breach between the president ; and. his war-time congress.” ~~ Two farm organizations disagreed over the president’s message. The ~~ ‘National Farmers union, which has ~ consistently urged ‘prices, applauded and offered its

parity which would include 1abor costs. If a complete rule is adopted for controlling agriculture by law, labor, salaries and other uncontrolled items should also be brought under control by law, and not. left to indefinite promises.” In the senate it was disclosed that legislation implementing the president's message was already being drafted for introduction when the senate reconvenes Thursday, probably by Democratic. Leader Alben ‘'W. Barkley of Kentucky. Despite a move by Republican Leader Charles L. McNary of Oregon to channel the Measure to the senate agticulture committee—keystone of the congressional farm bloc —leaders planned to send it to the banking and currency committee, which handled the pricé law. Speaker Sam Rayburn, after re ceiving a telephone call from the president Sunday night, was on a train from his ranch home near Bonham, Tex. He ordered a call for the house to be in full session next Monday.
Hint Delay in Fulfillment
Ordinarily, and this seemed to be no exception, proposed legislation as
controversial as farm price reduction does not clear congress in two months. There was strong opposition on the merits of the issue aside from the reaction to Mr. Roosevelt's ultimatum. The farm block was not expected to surrender readily the restrictions it fought to place in the price law, especially since the president still declined to leave the question of wage control to the congress. Senator Robert A. Taft (R. 0), charged that the message served notice that the president planned to make the laws for the United States during the war. If he has power to set aside provisions of the price law, he said, then he can draft men contrary to provisions of the selective service act and impose taxes regardless of the revenue laws. President Roosevelt followed his
planation of the move to the American people in his fireside address last night. He repeated what he had ‘told congress about his plans for taking executive action if necessary: “The president has the powers, under the constitution and under congressional acts, to take measures necessary to avert a disaster which would interfere with the winning of the war.”

used in diesel engines for naval craft. In an interview before the ceremony, Admiral Watts described the .E award as ‘no ” perfunctory slap on the back. No one gets it who is not doing a bang-up job.” Asked for his views on the cargo flying boat plans of Henry J. Kaiser, west coast shipbuilder, Admiral Watts said he fully subscribed to the possibilities of air transport of cargo but added: “I believe the question of materials is still under consideration.” Admiral Watts sald he believed that air cargo would not be an important factor in solving the submarine menace. “There will still be shipping in this war,” he said. On the question of proposed se-
miral Watts’ said he readily could envision the day when the question of whether. to assign’ American manpower to industry or to the army and navy would make selective service advisable for the good of “the common whole”

May said.
