BLAST AT OPA

Differences in 1919, 1946 Retail Costs Cited.

Times Washington Bureau WASHINGTON, June 6. — Rep. Gerald W, Landis (R. Ind), who is bringing members of the house Republigan food committee to Indianapolis for public hearings Saturday, today issued a blast against OPA. It is based upon. a study he made of Indianapolis newspaper advertising for April, 1919, He seeks to show by comparison with present day conditions that after world war I things were cheaper and easily obtairiable. The difference lies in OPA controls which retard production, Mr. Landis contends. «Lumber, lawn mowers, work clothes, men’s dress shirts, men’s suits, candy, women’s hosiery and numerous other articles are scarce now,” Mr. Landis declared.

Production Top Need

“In 1919 we did not have OPA and we got production. And production is the best guarantee against inflation.” The Landis advertising study includes lumber and mill work, lawn mowers from $9.50 to $17; blue denim overalls 97c; blue work shirts 63c: sateen work shirts 97c; regular shirts $1.15; men's suits of all kinds from $25 to $38.50; topcoats $25 and up; silk hose 35¢c to 98c; women’s lisle hose 59¢, and silk at ‘85c, $1.25 and $2.50; children’s coats $4.95 to $9.95; gingham dresses 95c; wall paper “$859 will do your entire home”; caramels 50c per pound; dresses $15.95; cigars Tc; cigarets 18c; brooms 39c; bicycles $20.85; Brussels rug $19.50; baby carriage

$10; house paint $1.90, and barn]

paint $1.29. A. fine house, with all 9 rooms newly furnished, could be had for

" $6800 according to the 1919 ads.

Wage Scales Ignored Mr. Landis admitted a missing link in his conclusions is the difference in pay scales between the two periods. Three Indiana Republican congressmen will accompany Mr, Landis to the food hearings, he said. They are Reps. Harness, Springer and Wilson. They will be joined in| Indianapolis by Rep. Noble J. Johnson, who has not returned here since being hospitalized by an automobile accident. Besides Mr. Landis, other G. O. P. food committee congressmen scheduled to attend are Thomas A. Jenkins (R. O.), man; Reps. Andresen and Griffiths (R. O.),

WASHINGTON, June 8 (U. P). —Non-scheduled airlines today were faced with proposed civil - aeronautics board regulations that would drastically curtail their operations. Aviation sources said it would be impossible for many of the nonscheduled lines to make any profit under the proposed regulations. The CAB served general notice on the non-scheduled lines in cracking down on two of them yesterday. It ordered Page Airways, Rochester, N. Y., and Trans-Marine Airlines, Hyannis, Mass., to cease operations. Run by Veterans It was estimated there now are 300 to 400 of the non-scheduled airlines operating throughout the country. Many of them are run by veterans, who have bought surplus military transport planes. The proposed CAB regulations would limit a non-scheduled airline to 10 round trips monthly between

WITH NEW BOND SALE

WASHINGTON, June 8 (U. Piet’ The treasury celebrated the second anniversary of the European invasion ‘today by launching its first post-war campaign for the sale of savings bonds. Two years ago today, Yank troops swarmed the beaches of Normandy to usher in the final phase of the war against Germany. But Secretary of the Treasury Fred M. Vinson deéclared “in the economic phase of the victory, we have not yet won the final battle.”

| In a radio broadcast last night (A. B. C) Mr. Vinson said the ‘danger of inflation has not yet been licked. “It is our number one domestic | problem,” he said. “A bad case of inflation would be a castastrophe.” Keep Debt at Home

He urged the public to buy bonds as “one of the best ways to combat inflation.” He said these purchases would keep surplus dollars off the market, until supply had a chance to catch up with demand. He said in a supplementary state-
