B.0.P. BIDS FOR HOUSE CONTROL,

Party Leaders Say Truman Bungling Job.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 8 (U, P)~

»4 Congressional Republicans stepped

up their campaign to win control of the house in 1946 with charges that the administration: had bungled in almost every field. House Republican Leader Joseph W. Martin Jr. (Mass.), told the G. O. P's annual Lincoln day dinner here. that the administration had failed to solve the problems of re- | conversion, foreign policy and labor unrest.

Mr, Martin spoke at the dinner last night along with Rep. Clare

Boothe Luce (R. Conn.) and Gov.

Edward Martin of Pennsylvania. He said the administration's labor

policies have done nothing but]

“open the breach still wider.” The President's fact-finding proposal, he added, was merely “a. sop to public opinion.” Rep. Martin said reconversion plans are “snarled” in government red tape while the OPA has smothered the production which is necessary to stave off inflation and the black market. Mrs. Luce took up the problems

of the Negro whe, she said, is-“the

slave of our whole society.” She said Republicans were eager to give

the Negro economic freedom and |

complete the task begun by Abraham Lincoln, Gov, Martin said the administration formula still is “tax and tax, spend and spend, elect and elect.” He urged the government to start retiring its “giant debt” of $275,

000,000,000 and set up a sound fis. |

cal policy based on taxes “as low as possible” which would encourage new enterprise.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Babies ig Out to Autos

WASHINGTON, Feb, 8 (U. P). .—-Americans prefer automobiles to babies in the opinion of Dr.’ Oliver E. Baker, professor of economic phy at Maryland university. . Dr. . Baker told the National Catholic conference here that the nation's birth rate probably would suffer an “accelerating” decline as the result of a post-war drop in marriage and increased luxury goods production. “As the sales curve of Automobiles goes up, the curve of births goes down,” he said. “It costs no more to rear a child than to maintain an automobile but the preference of the American people is clear.”

Wallace has smacked the New York

City Democratic organization in|

the eye with indorsement of an|

| American Labor Party candidate for congress. . The candidate is Johannes Steel, | '& German-born naturalized citizen | Mr. Steel is an author, lecturer and'| | radio commentator whose works are | notable among other things for | sympathy with the Communist party line. ’ He’is a candidate for congress in | a by-election to be held Feb. 19 {in an East side New York City district. Mr. Steel's Tammany- Democratic opponent is Rep. Arthur G. Klein. The Republicans nominated a young army officer, William 8. Shea.

The district is lop-sidedly Democratic and has not sent a Republican to the house in years—if ever. May Split Vote | Mr. Steel's candidacy unquestionably will split the Democratic vote and the otherwise assured prospects of the Democratic candidate are | diminshed accordingly. The cabinet officer's action probtably will arouse considerable dis- | cussion here on two counts, First is the secretary's opposi{tion . to the regular Democratic candidate. Second is the fact that among three candidates he chose the | American Labor party entry whose | economic and political convictions | apparently are far to the left of most Americans. Mr. Wallace on the one hand |s

| backing an extreme left winger for : "id

congress and on the other heads the department of commerce which has a peculiarly intimate relationship with and responsibility to in dustry and business. Mr. Wallace's . bolt Democratic party in New York's 19th district is typical of thé stresses developing now within the New political powerhouse created by the late Franklin D. Roosevelt. There is deep, fundamental and widening division in that coalition. Unless the structure can be repaired the chances of electing a Democratic President in 1648 will not be great.
