They expressed fear that freezing prices at today’s levels would tend to make maximum prices a floor rather than a ceiling. But to pull down these ceilings, they added, would mean huge subsidies tosbusiness which has bought] at wholesale or from raw material sources. at high prices. GOP “Killed OPA” These Democrats said their chief hope is to make the people realize that the Republicans captured the 80th Congress in 1946 with a ery of “kill OPA.” They said the Republican challenge of “had enough?” was aimed at the system of price controls and rationing. They agree—many of them— that political reaction to re-es-tablishment of controls today would be bad. Housewives and

would protest just as loudly as they did two years ago. . Republicans who had onl harsh words for Mr. Truman's action in recalling Congress and for his special message, said privately they believed it would be extremely unwise to go home quickly without making some approach to the living costs issue. This was apparent. in the announcement of Chairman Jesse Wolcott (R. Mich.) of the House Banking and Currency Committee that hearings on proposals for controls would begin on Thursday. Hope to Smoke Out Dewey It was apparent, too, in the word passed about here that Gov. Thomas E. Dewey opposes any overnight adjournment. Publicly, though, Mr. Dewey is expected to maintain a strict hands-off attitude in regard to the special session if he can get away with it. Democrats were predicting today that he would not be able to remain silent. There were indications that in speeches they will soon seek to build a political fire under him by contending that as the party's leader he should

say where he stands on the ma-|

jor issues presented by President Truman. One Republican, Sen. Henry Cabot Lodge (R. Mass.), came up with the idea that the quickest way to grant relief from high prices would be to reduce taxes in the lower income brackets. The effect, he pointed out, would. be to leave people more money with whith to meet living costs. But he conditioned his proposition on a federal treasury surplus.

Thomas’ Comments

Socialist Norman Thomas, who has a presidential campaign of his own to run, expressed the view that what Mr. Truman asked “is almost wholly for the public good. As a list, I delighted in hearing a Democratic President urge a housing bill sponsored by a Republican leader (Senator Taft), a bill that in years past both of them would have denounced as Solialistic.” . Mr. Thomas said the housing bill wasn't all it should be, but that it deserved passage.

Capehart Offers Price Freeze Bill

Times Washingion Bureau | ‘WASHINGTON, July 28—Sen.| Homer Capehart asked President| Truman by letter today whether the administration would again oppose his so-called “price moratorium"” bill, The Senator introduced the bill at the special “anti-inflation” ses-| sion last December and four Cabinet officers opposed it during hearings before the Senate Bank-| ing Committee. | The Senator has changed the effective dates of the bill and wrote the President “to ask you if in your opinion your Cabinet members and administrative heads would again oppose passage of his anti-inflation bill.” Freeze Prices The Capehart bill now would freeze commodity ceiling prices as of July 26, 1948, and limit used car prices to the list prices of new ‘automobiles. ¥ The commodity price freeze proposed would only fix the July 26 top price of the commodity involved as the ceiling above which the price could not go. The prices could come down. Termination date of the bill has

'been changed to Mar. 15, 1949.
