Senator 0’Mahoney Warns Of Possible Economic ~ Disaster.

By E. A. EVANS WASHINGTON, Oct. 12-Unless America finds a way to put private capital to work creating jobs after the war, “we will face the greatest

tion ever suffered,” Senator J. C. O'Mahoney (D. Wyo.) told the senate today. Failure, he said, would mean management and regulation of the economy either by government or by huge monopolies, with the activities of citizens restricted by government planners or business planners, Between those evils he saw little choice. In either case the manage« ment would be totalitarian in method, and “neither government nor a few corporations can manage the economic system for the benefit of all the people.”

Reports on Hearings

Reporting on his hearings in Pacific coast cities last month as a member of the senate’s special com-

and planning, Mr. O'Mahoney said he found California, Oregon and Washington deeply concerned about the future, Employment in west eoast aircraft plants is up more than 1200 per cent, in shipyards nearly 300 per cent, since 1040, he asserted. He believes only a far-flung shipping industry and sustained air leadership using great fleets of transport planes can save such yards and plants, there and elsewhere, from shrinking to pre-war size and sending floods of workers back to areas not now prepared to give them jobs. Another coast worry, he said, is that industries there may be kept at high war production months or years after Germany surrenders, while eastern industry gets a long head start on reconversions to output for the civilian market.

Problems Are National

However, he emphasized his opin~ jon that the problems of industrial reorganization are national and most of the war contracts to large corporations best prepared to ‘get the job done.’ “We had‘ fo adopt totalitarian methods to fight successfully,” he said. “But conttrol of our economic system has been concentrated, geographically and in industrial units, to a degree which has almost destroyed the ability of states and other subdivisions to protect the ecnomic interests of their citizens. It is to be doubted if the country realizes how far the very basis of a free economy has been undermined.” : Up to May, he pointed out, 62 per cent of all war contracts had gone to eastern and north-central in-

tions getting more than 70 per cent, in value, of the prime contracts. . Deficit Deepens

BACKS MISSOURI GOP IN QUIZZING WILLKIE

WASHINGTON, Oct. 12 (U, P= Rep. Louis E. Miller (R. Mo.) yesterday defended his party colleagues in Missouri who asked Wendell L. Willkie to clarify his post-war views publicly. In a speech to the house, he denied published contentions that the Missouri G. O. P, is seeking to put Willkie on the spot. The object of the move, he sald, is: to get the 19040 Republican presidential nominee on the record so the state group can make a careful decision should he solicit their support for 1044. Missouri Republicans sent Willkie nine questions on foreign policy and he is scheduled to answer them Fri day in a Bt. Louis speech on both foreign and domestic issues, Miller, who was Missouri's preconvention manager for Willkie in 1040, indicated the state office holders and delegates still were friendly to Willkie and would want to work wholeheartedly in his behalf if he can satisfy their post-war queries,

BUREAU IN MOSCOW

WASHINGTON, Oct. 12 (U.

About 12 years ago Spewack had 8 - fairly - successful play called “Clear the Wires" running on Broadway. It was a satire on a foreign correspondent in Russia and also got in some pokes at diplomacy. The Soviet Union itself was not satirized directly but, of course, there were some atmos: pherie cracks and the OWI is reported to be anxious about the possible Russian reaction to Spewack,

is still the same, including usually successful efforts to settle controversial questions in committee rooms and prevent them from coming to public attention on the floor,

Constitutionality Involved

A fear that the unorthodox Mr. Lewis might act the china-shop bull with respect to this conserva tive behavior is one big reason why the convention already hasn't told him to come on back. There also is a serious constitutional question involved, through assignment of jurisdictional rights to the Progressive Miners of America, a small rival to the Lewis: U, M. W,, but the convention could have settled this much earlier. It didn’t, leading to the conclusion that the leaders either are unsure - of their ground or want to misintalf - to the end the main reason for public interest in this vonvention. Meanwhile the Progressive Miners are cirqulating statements that “no self-confessed enemy of labor has hurt labor as much in the last few years-as—has- John -L. Lewis. -We can. respect an. honest. enemy, but who can respect or have any use for a so-called friend of labor who has won—and deservés—the indignant ill-will 6f the general public and who wils the direct one-man cause of the Smith-Connally bill . .. The public regards Lewis as a spokesman for labor, and the public condemns labor when it condemns Lewis,”

Propaganda Circulated

Some anonymous agency has been circulating counter propaganda against the Progressive Miners. The charge is that the Progressives had mean things to say about the A, F. of L. and particularly about its pres ident, William Green, Lloyd Thrush, président of the minor miner union, pointed out that the derogatory statements were made prior to April 28, 1038, when his union got the A. PF. of L. charter vacated by Lewis. The A. F. of L's caution was fllustrated yesterday when Matthew Woll and John P. Frey, old-liners in charge of the resolutions committee, sidetracked a declaration calling for co-operation with President Roose velt. - The . resolution was based mainly on the war issue, but could have been interpreted as support for the possible fourth term campaign. Mr. Woll pointed out that the A. F. of L. will have another convention before the 1044 election,

Laments Race Problem The convention had its biggest

day . Philip Randolph, Harvard-educated head of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, told the delegates, “The race problem is the No. 1 problem of America today and the No. 1 problem of lorganized labor . ., We Negroes are fighting for our union rights to save the American Federation of Labor as well as to save democracy.”
