THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, MAY 29, 1929 WILL GIVE HOOVER POWER TO CONTROL INDUSTRY FOR WAR Bill Being Prepared for Sub- mission to Washington Congress LESSONS FROM 1917 Right Over Production To Parallel Right Over in an Hour 'Washington, May 29.--Bills giving the president wide powers to draft industry in time of war will be ready for submission to Congress within 90 days, Secretary of War Good said last week. A bill to enable the president to conscript man power for army ser- vice in time of emergency was intro- duced in Congress earlier this month. It was severely criticised, cven by ad- ministration congressmen, because there was no provision for similar conscription of industry. As revealed Tuesday, the War Department wiil not seek enactment of the man-power conscription bill until the industrial legislation is ready for simultancous action, Justice demands Good's opinion. "It would be unjust," he said, "to pass a law to draft man power with- out provision for drafting the indus- trial group which will produce mate- rials the soldiers will use." Bernard M, Baruch and others as- sociated with the Wilson administra- tion in establishing national industry on a war-time footing, already have been consulted, Good said, Examina- tion of the problem will continue in the expectation that the regular ses- sion of Congress, convening in De- cember. Good said "will be able to act on both projects. If greater time is required to prepare legislation to draft industry, the bill to conscript man power will be held up," he said. The man power bill, as submitted to Congress, will become the pattern of the industrial legislation, Good be- fies. The bill does not, as has been suggested, empower the president ar- bitrarily to employ the tremendous authority by the bill. The terms of the proposed legislation expressly provide that it shall not be operative until after Congress has proclaimed existence of a national emergency. Upon such proclamation, which could be recommended to Congress by the this delay, in Sail Cunard! Book through The Robert Reford . "Limi Cor.

Internal or external disorders might create a situation which Congress would declare to be a national emer- gency. The attempted secession of the Southern states is typical of an internal disorder of this kind.

PELEE ISLAND IN JEOPARDY Flood Threatens To Inun- date 3,000 Acres of Farm Land Windsor, May 2' --Five thousand acres of land, half of Pelee Island, are in jeopardy 'today with only a slender sandbank between the land and the waves of Lake Erie, Ralph Harris, ex-reeve of the island telephoned to Windsor today that the situation was dangerous in the extreme, Fear that the fate which overtook three hundred farmers at Ericau two weeks ago may be their's today, is urging the Pelec Islanders to des- perate measures.

CANADIAN EXODUS T0 U.S. FALLING OFF Report Also Shows Marked Increase in Immigration From States Ottawa, May 29.--There has been a decided falling off in the Canadian exodus to the. United States during the past year, while on the other hand there has been a marked in- crease in United States imnrigration into Canada.

Discuss- ing more recent developments of the Deisel powered coaches Sir Henry Thornton declared that they promise to be the greatest advance in raii transportation in three quarters of a century--and it is only a year or two in excess of a century that the suc- cess of Stephenson's "Rockett" cast the die in favor of rail transportation. Some time ago the automotive editor discussed the question of the future of steam railroad transporta- tion with Ludlow Clayden, the bril- liant chief technologist of the Sun Oil company, who although an Eng- lishman--*"in spite of all temptations" as friend Gilbert would say--is one of the best known automotive en- | gineers on the continent. He ws: for years technical editor of Motor. It is his belief that wherever distri- bution of cheap hydro power is fea- sible railroads will be electrified and that elsewhere Diesel electrics will | supplant steam locomotives. All of | which and much else is recalled by | the declaration of H. L. Horning of the Waukesha company, before 350 automotive engincers and railroad of- ficials a few days ago that "within five years the internal combustion en-~ gine would be the backbone of rail- road transportation. The simile is perhaps not a happy let alone an ele- gant one but the meaning is suffici- ently apparent. He added that his company is developing a rail car en- gine rated at 400 horsepower, with a unique crosshead piston that is ex- pected to be a sensation in the rail- road power world.
