ON THE HOME FRONT ,
(Editor’s Note: This is the sec-
end of two stories on reconver-
sion)
By JAMES MARLOW
WASHINGTON, Sept 23—(P)
—The now Office of War Mo-
bilisation and Reconversion—to
be set up under the bill passed
by Congress this week—will be
the guide through the home
front jungle leading back to
peace.
The director of OWMR—when
he is named—will be boss over
the government agencies that
have anything to do with chang-
ing this country over to a peace-
time economy.
But specifically he will be
boss over these three agencies,
all created by congress for re-
conversion:
1. The Office of Contract Set-
tlement. This agency will handle
the cancellation of war con-
tracts.
2. The surplus property board
which will have to dispose of
more than 100 billion dollars
worth of surplus war property.
This three-man board, created
by congress, will succeed the
surplus war property adminis-
tration which was created by the
President
1. Retraining and reemploy-
ment administration. Its job is
to coordinate all the efforts of
government agencies which deal
with retraining and reemploy-
ment.
The director of OWMR also
will be responsible for planning
and for keeping congress in-
formed of reconversion progress.
Congress laid down this rule
for OWMR: Any plant able to
reconvert to peacetime work
should be permitted to, whether
or not other firms in the same
field are still doing war work.
This has been a sore point for
months. For some business men
contend it's unfair to let one
firm get a head start on its com-€
petitors after the war.
Here are some of the other
main provisions in the act creat-
ing OWMR
The federal government will
help out states hard hit by pay-
Ing out unemployment compen-e
setion to jobless workers.
This, in a general way, is how
it will work:
States operate their own un-
employment compensation sys-
tems. The money, however, goes *
Into a government trust fund.
The states draw from that fund
as they need to. Now there is
about 5 1-2 billion dollars in the
fund.
There will be many jobless
after the war So the states will €
have to dip into their share of
that fund. When those payments
drag a state's share down be-
low a certain level, the govern-
ment will step in to help out
with a loan. 0
A lot of states have plans for
building public works after the
war. Some of those plans are in
blueprint form, some only in the
talking stage.
To spur all the states and
' cities into getting their plans €
completed, the OWMR act pro-
vides:
That the government shall
help finance the cost of com-
pleting these plans. In other
words: Help pay for the archi-e
tecta' fees and the expenses of
planning groups.
This money will be distributed
on a population basis.

lightening and intriguing. It shows our eat-
ing habits in the vegetable, dried bean and
white and sweet potato categories over a per-
iod of 34 years. It gives evidence that the
efforts of the nutritionists and slimsilhouette
advocates have borne fruit—or perhaps car-
rots- in the last three decades.
Untu point rationing temporarily reversed
the trend, the humble potato was 1
moving into a class with the poison mush-
room. Our per capita spud consumption
dropped from 195 pounds in 1909 to 121 in
1939. And even in point-rationed 1943 it was
only 130. On the other hand, we munched
94.5 pounds of leafy, green and yellow vege-
tables in 1942 and 88.1 last year, as against
89.7 pounds in 1918. (Apparently nobody ate
enough fresh forage before then to be worth
keeping track of.)
Today potato consumption is rising, and
that of vegetables has dipped. But it’s only
a wartime phenomenon which can’t last.
With peace and plenty, the slimming and,
or starvation diet will again come into its
own and the starchy spud will continue its
decline. So revel in the creamy goodness of
mashed potatoes and the delectable joys
of home fried while it’s still patriotic to
io so.
The Satellites’ Peace
It is unlikely that the Nazi government will
get any wrong ideas from the lenient armis-
tice terms given to Finland and Romania.
The drafters of these terms might have judged
that the chief sin of the Finnish and Romanian
[people was an excess of discretion over valor,

could at least understand the Finnish peo-
ple’s predicament, even if he could not ex-
cuse their action. And he could understand
the Romanians' helplessness against a gov-
ernment which has long kept them poverty-
ridden and all but voiceless.
But the Nazis know that it is different with

At the United Automobile Workers’ con-

roads, construction of superhighways, slum

already convicted of barbarous crimes for
which no excuse of ignorance can be offered.
Europe will remember German complacency

Bowles’ Headaches
POSTWAR PRICES A REAL PROBLEM
By PETER EDSON
The Reporter-News Washington
Correspondent
Admitting that he is scared to
death of postwar Inflation and
deflation. Price Administrator
Chaster Bowles has a neat
little story to illustrate how some
people In this country can get
what he calle an inflation psy-
chosis, while others may he hit by
the deflation jitters at the same
time. It goes something like
this:
Here you have
two families liv-
ing in two
houses, side by
side in one lives
a war - plant
worker whose
wife has also
had a war Job
They've saved
up some money
snd want to

EDSON Then along
comae the end of the war, and
theca people Inee their jobs Im-
mediately they atari hoarding
their money and holding back
on their plans That's deflation-
ary.
Right next to this famUy
there lives en insurance sales-
man He and his wife want to
build a house, too But the in-
surance men thinks business is
going to be good, and what
scares him to that prices are go-
ing to be higher as soon as con-
trots are off. Ne wants to build
that new house now, and buy
that new car now, before every-
thing goes up. He's inflationary
Bowles points to these two
eases, right on the same street,
as examples of the crazy, cock-
eyed economy the country to go-
ing to have as soon as the war to
over Boom it can go up, or
bang it can hit the skids
Officially. Bowles weak guess
which way its going to go, be-
lieving that the drift may
change from month to month.
But he realizes that a mistake
by OFA on its postwar pricing
policies may throw the economy
one way or the other, and that’s
what he’s hoping ran be avoid-
ed.
POSTWAR PRICING
PROBLEMS
Right now, OFA is trying to
plan how it can get out from
under price controls as fast as
possible and item by Item, the
same way it get in In some
rasas prices may naturally drop
below the present ceilings. The
trick then is simply to take off
the callings.
At the same time. It will be
necessary to put new ceilings on
items which haven't been la pro-
duction and which you haven’t
been obis to buy during the war
years. In general, OFA now is
aiming to have these items come
beck on the market et approxi-
mately the same prices in effect
in the flrot quarter of 1942, when
production of consumer durable
goods was largely stopped
Going over the list of items
that will be brought back into
production when the war is
over, OPA has found that less
than a dozen types of goods
make up 85 percent of all the
Items which will need new price
regulation. Included in this list
are automobiles and peris, re-
frigerators, sewing machines,
vacuum cleaners, radios, pianos,
heating equipment, watches and
jewelry OFA la asking the man-
ufacturers of these lines to some
to Washington in the next few
weeks to work out their postwar
pricing problems
Holding strictly to the view
that it is to the manufacturers
advantage to keep prices low
and build up volume of sales,
Bowles believes business will
see the need of price regulation
in the transition period
As fewer than M companies
will manufacture nearly 40 per-
cent sf all the new lines of
goods thst will have to to
brought under new price con-
trol, OP AS problem will be
simplified.
SMALL BUSINESS
CONTROLS
For the remaining 25,000 or
more smell manuf acturers who
turn out the eggbeaters, gar-
bags pails and little stuff that
make up the other 15 percent of
the goods needing new prices,
OFA now plans two courses of
action. First, small business
concerns with email volume of
product may be given complete
, exemption from price control.
This will take a big administra-
tive lead off OFA'a shoulders
and at the sains time give
email business a break in the
fight for the highly competitive
poetwar market Second, small
manufacturers may have their
products put under a pricing
formula, administered by OFA
district offices which will also
be authorised to grant relief in
hardship cases.
There is no thought of profit
control other than that all price
control covers costs plus profits. .
The theory is to get back to 1942
costs and 1942 profits, with fe- ,
lief being granted in hardship
cases to allow for increased pro-
ducttan costs such as increased
rates sf pay to labor.
By MARQUIS CHILDS
WASHINGTON — In the
speech he makes on Saturday
night. President Roosevelt is
going to have to pull his cam-
paign out of the slough of
apathy. Indifference and con-
fusion -into which it has fallen.
That is what his campaign ad-
visors have told him.
The president knows it, too.
He is well aware of the poor
unpression made by his talk
from the Bremerton navy yard
when he came from his tour of
Pacific bases.
Those at Democratic head-
quarters who look realistically
at the present political situation
acknowledge there is reason for
concern. In some cities in key
states, the Democratic organi-
sation is at odds with the po-
litical action committee in a
" rivalry for power and position
that could hardly be called
good-natured To many regu-
lar Democrats, Sidney Hillman
is almost as much of a red flag
as he la to regular Republicans.
It is difficult to draw any Is-
sues sharply, since time after
time conservative southern
Democrats have taken the same
stand as the OOP Thus, the
appeal to the liberal-labor wing
of the party is blunted.
MUST RENEW LEADERSHIP
By several intimates who
have seen him recently, the
president has been told that he
must in his Saturday s speech
renew his affirmative leader-
ship over the progressive for-
ces of the country. Talk about
the need for extending social
security, talk about health in-
surance, talk about a vast new
housing program, they have
urged.
They are hopeful that "the
boss" has been persuaded. It
would, of course, be an ideal
audience for such a speech. The
president is addressing an an-
nual dinner meeting of the In-
ternational Brotherhood of
Teamsters, an AFL union, of
which his old friend, Dan Tob-
in. has been president since
1907.
In his opening he will be sure
to get in a reference to "my
old friend, Dan Tobin," in the
warm, mellow voice which has
become so familiar during the
past 12 years. It will be a chance
to counteract some of the pro-
CIO stigma that the opposition
has tried to fasten on him. And
if he should decide to go all-
out on a forward looking post-
war program. Tobin's AFL
union would provide a respec-
table sounding board.
At Republican headquarters
in New York, they make no se-
cret of the fact that they in-
tend to exploit up to the hilt
the charges of communism in
the Hillman organisation, and
the quarrel over policy that led
to a split in the American La-
bor party, with a so-called anti-
communist faction pulling out.
That is to be hammered home
in the closing weeks here on the
eastern seaboard, in cities where
the votes of Irish and Polish
Catholics may decide the elec-
tion.
The Republicans are obvious-
ly not worrying too much over
whether they are making pro-
Dewey votes. They are perfect-
ly happy they can increase the
number of anti-Rbosevelt vot-
ers, One inference they resent,
incidentally, is that a light vote
will mean distrust of their
candidate. You can register a
protest as readily by staying
, home as by going to the polls.
Herbert Brownell Jr., Republi-
can campaign chairman, has
told his workers
The atmosphere at republi-
can headquarters in New York
is one of bustling enthusiasm.
It is the restrained enthusiasm
of hard-working efficiency ex-
perts who believe their machine
is moving into high sear. On
the walls in the corridors are
big signs that say, “if you
i underscored > don't work hard,
(underscored) Roosevelt can
be re-elected."
The efficient managers of the
Dewey campaign are confident
their man will make no serious
slip before Nov. T. He has a
record of caution, and they are
buttressing his caution with the
most careful supervision.
The GOP might win on a
negative protest vote FDR must
stir his old following to active
support

FRANK
The MAN wo HAS Two
SONS N TRC ARMY
PARIS, Sept. 1S~< Delayed)
OF—France is a land of cere-
mony: You find a ritual for
everything from opening a bot-
tle of champagne to paying a
bill—and most of these rituals
begin or end with a shaking of
hands.
French people shake hands
when they meet you and they
shake hands when they leave
you. And if the conversation
lags at any time they probably
will pump it up by grabbing
your hand for another shake
and start saying "bon! bon!"
over and over again.
As a matter of fact, most
conversations in French seem
to consist of a rapid series of
interchanged exclamations of
“out, oul!” "afore, alors!" and
“non, non!” which could be
translated roughly as “yes, yes!”
"well, well!" and "no, no!"
This obviously leads nobody
anywhere and as a result French
conversation to the great mass
of American soldiery in Faris
seems rather pointless "No-
body gets to first base in that
language," is the general ver-
dict
The Parisian handshake has
none of the vibrating qualities
of the Anglo-Saxon handshake,
which resembles two men try-
ing to calm down an excited
malted milk machine in French
it's more like an old-fashioned
game of Indian hand-wrestling.
When you meet friend you
grab his hand at about chin
level grip hard and then give
one long, violent downward
jerk, letting go quickly when
your hand is perpendicular to
his left shin
Then you both try to regain
your balance. .__
A Frenchman with a broken
arm would be absolutely ton-
gue-tied because no conversa-
tion in this country starts
without a handshake and a po-
lite comment allez-vous?
(Go you?)
Walters in French restaurants
are pained to hysteria by thirsty
soldiers who open champagne
by twisting out corks or pulling
them with corkscrews.
That is too easy. The Garcons
prefer the gentle ceremony by
which they manipulate the cork

from the bottle gradually with
the fingertips until the impris-
oned bubble gas blows the loos-
ened etopper free with * violent
popping sound. If the cork •
doesn’t hit the celling you’re
* bush-leaguer.
But above and beyond all
other ceremonies in French
restaurants is the ceremony of
"putting ths bite on the Cus-
tomer.” 1
When you call for the bill-
er, aa the French say, "l’addi-
tion, s’il vous plait"—you throw
the whole place Into an uproar.
It is as if nobody in France
had ever paid a bill before. •
The waiter gets out a pad and
scribbles furiously. He calls
over ths head waiter and the
restaurant owner and a spare
hateheck girl or two. They look
at his figures, stares at your
the waiter erases half of the €
figures and starts all over again,
gesticulating like a traffic eop
at an American Legton conven-
tion.
As a last resort they call the
chef out of ths kitchen. He,
looks over the tabulation, okays
it, gives you a contemptuous
glance and returns to his pots
and pans
When the waiter finally place
se the bill on your plate he lays
It there reverently and softly, €.
as if he were giving you a free

When you turn it over you
find he wants maybe 50 to 200

for the bottle of wine, 5 franca a
toward his old age pension, 10
francs for the government, 18
franca to repair his watch, 4
more to pay his union dues, 4
toward a college education fer
his baby daughter, 20 to buy a
lottery ticket and 12 per cent e
of the total bill to cover any-
thing he may have overlooked.

known aa "the tip."
