BL NETT P. O. Mcfleary, BL Washington, March 26--Absence of President Roosevelt on vacation has not slowed down the wheels of government. Instead administrative officials, saddled with direct responsibility for their actions, are working with might and main on current policies. Even Congress seems to catch the spirit and proceeds to turn out billions in defense authorizations with a minimum amount of wrangling and delay. While spending is easy, it is something of another c6lor to devise equitable tax measures which will provide part of the money necessary to pay the costs of armament and the aid to Britain. Hearings on tax measures are expected early in April to be followed by social security legislation, which will extend the benefits to many millions not now covered. As a political sideshow the series of Congressional investigations into defense activities will soon be running in full blast as each group com pete 3 for the publicity. Interest naturally centers this week in the new super-defense mediation board created to prevent interference with the defense program. It is generally recognized that this new agency is more likely to exercise its power of moral suasion than any other implied power to settle labor disputes. If strikes continue to spread and the delivery of vital armament is delayed it is a foregone conclusion that Congress will step into the picture with restrictive legislation which neither employers nor employees want at this time. It is proposed that when controversies disrupting production of war materials cannot be settled by the regular Federal conciliation service the supermediation board will attempt to mediate these disputes. It is significant that labor union leaders, who had opposed the establishment of this new apency, have completely reversed their position over the weekend. It is not the national leaders of trade unions who are entirely to blame for the wave of strikes, as local union leaders on many occasions ignore the higher-ups in the organization. A report issued March 24 by the National Resources Board .about "Urban Planning and Land Policies" is one which will absorb the attention of r "town fathers."

While the discussion centers largely around "planned" communities, the related subjects will give town officials and state agencies something to talk about when thinking of the future of the locality in terms of development, schools, taxes and what not. The survey revealed that many of the ills and problems of town life could be remedied by public and unofficial agencies taking the experiences of the planned neighborhoods to heart. It is argued that many of the "planned" regjons "exhibit an unusually high degree of social cohesion and community spirit and enjoy greater efficiency, greater safety and a more healthful environment for the inhabitants." £ Hundreds of trailer camps springing up around towns and cities where defense industries are thriving presents problems for local authorities as well as the Federal government. The Farm Security Administration is now exploring sites for these camps to meet the demand for housing. Gov. ernment agents are negotiating with realty firms and property owners in an effort to provide orderly camps. These facilities will not be available to migratory families but will be confined to those who qualify as workers in defense industries. Town officials and others will be obliged to deal directly with representatives of the Farm Security Administration, which is the administrative agency for these camps. Employees of local factories are not eligible for these trailer camps until the Army or the Navy certifies that they are engaged in a defense industry. The government is paying from $850 to $1250 for completely furnished trailers in these mobile housing units. The rentals obtained by the government are used for operating expenses. Along the seacoast the government is taking over old ships and renting the space on the basis of two men to a stateroom. Supplementing these facilities are government dormitories for single men and small temporary housing units for defense workers with families. With Federal moneys- pouring into hundreds of localities for defense projects or military encampments, it is small wonder that a rapid increase has been reported in consumer incomes. The direct effects of the defense program on industrial activity and employment has been reflected in the fact that these expendituers rose from a daily average of seven million dollars last September to twenty-one million in February. Additional improvement in consumer demand for farm products is indicated for the next few months, but gains from now on are likely to be more gradual than during the last half of 1940. Federal statistics show that commodity prices are again moving upwafd and now are the highest since the outbreak of war in Europe. Rising labor costs are an important factor pointing to an advance in commodity prices. The Department of Agriculture say*, "Increased employment does not necessarily lead to increased consumption, but it does result in a better demand lor farm products." A New Strike Mediation Board President Roosevelt named an 11- man super-mediation Board which is expected to accomplish the settlement of defense strikes so that the production output of defense materials may flow on uninterrupted. Named as chairman of the new group is Dr. Clarence Dykstra, President of the University of Wisconsin and head of the Selective Service System. The Board will have wide jurisdiction in the field of strike mediation. Labor representatives on the new board will be Philip Murray, CIO President, Thomas B. Kennedy of Pennsylvania, Vice President of the United Mine Workers, George L. Meany, General Secretary of the A. F. of L. and Geo. M. Harrison, railway labor organization official. Those representing management are Walter C. Teagle, formerly President of the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey, Roger D. Lapham, President of the American Hawaiian Steampship Company, Eugene Meyer, publisher of the Washington D. C. Post, and Cyrus Ching, Vice President of the United States Rubber Corporation. Representing the public will be Willia© Hammatt Davis of New York, patent attorney and Frank P. Graham, President of the University of North Carolina. It is expected that the new set-up will go into operation immediately. The Mam Who Went To Dinner The stage production "The Man Who Came To Dinner" starring Alexander Wolcott recently concluded an exceptionally successful run in the nation's Capital. However, Mr. Wolcott's fame as "the man who came to dinner" has been challenged, and in fact, has completely been overshadowed by a gentleman in the nation's Capital who is now being referred to, and in all probability in the future will always be referred to as "the man who went to dinner." This gentleman is none other than the Vice President of the United States, fionorable Henry Wallace. Here's the story: The Senate was debating a bitterly contested proposal to eliminate from a Navy Department appropriation bill a certain provision inserted by the House which would prevent the purchase by the Navy Department of Argentine beef. Feelings were running high and Argentine cows were being berated in great fashion and the Senate was just about ready to vote on the proposal when the Vice President decided that it was lunch time. In all probability the good gentleman, having heard so much about Argentine beef for a couple of hours decided to take the bull by the horns and sample a little beef of some kind in the Senate restaurant. When the bells for the vote sounded several Senators who were seated at the same table with the Vice President left the luncheon table to answer the roll call. The Vice President asked one of the Senators to let him know if the vote was close. The Senator waited in the Senate chamber until he thought the Administrationbacked Argentine Jfeeef proposal had won and then went back to the Vice President's table and remarked that it appeared that "the cause of justice has been defeated," meaning that the Administration had been successful in eliminating the Argentine beef ban from the bill. However, the Senator was wrong. The vote upstairs was a 32 to 32 tie and the vote of the Vice President, had he been present, would have won the day for the Administration forces. Due to his failure to vote, under the rules of the Senate, the tie meant defeat for the Administration. Now sailors will eat American beef which is as it should be. American cattleraisers are, ip our opinion, entitled to the preference over our "good neighbors" from the South. Let's hope that we hear no more of the "Argentine bull."
