;'It does not scorn Just," he said
In a prepared statement, "for con

tax burdens without taking
prompt and decisive action to
eliminate nonessential govern

gress at this time, when It Is de
manding great sacrifices from
the people, to slash every possible
'dollar of nonessential spending."
! Houston declared that sampl

clearly that-the American public

as an easy way to pay-as-you-go in
'amounts' which will not be great

Action on Price
Control Demanded
By Sea McNary
WASHINGTON, Aug. 20 -f API
Senator McNary of Oregon, the
minority leader, called on the ad
ministration congressional ma
jority yesterday to consider price
control legislation without delay.
t-l bill, introduced in both
itrNMtev' KviJi'fiiriiV V.vo we ;,-
has heerv considered ly the house
banking committee but has not
been taken up by the senate com
mittee. The house group has de
cided to postpone further hear
ings until the house completes a
four-weeks rest period and senat
committee members have said
they would delay action until the
house acts.
The legislation would permit
President Roosevelt to establish
ceilings on various prices. Sala
ries would be exempted, however,
and no ceiling could be establish
ed on farm products below 110
per cent of so-called "parity"
prices.
"I appeal to the administration
to consider this major t price 'con
trol I legislation without delay,"
McNary told reporters!. He added
that there now was general un
certainty because the prospect of
such legislation had "dislocated
marketing conditions."
"There is neither a buyers' or a
sellers' market because of the un
certainty of price levels," the
Oregon senator declared. Point
nij! out that tho midsummer sea
son Is the marketing period for
farm products, he said, "the great
I forces of agriculture should have
I this uncertainty removed.
"fn the name of common sense,
the price control bill should be
'voted up or down at the earliest
'possible date."
i McNary declined to commit
: himself on the general subject of
price legislation, but he asserted
"ilWtV Siiy fiei'sure" which ext-mpt-,

outstrip other nations In arms
production for the last two years,
Senator Byrd (D., Va.) demand
ed yesterday complete reorganiza
tion of defense production with
establishment of a single author
ity over the entire program.
"America has the capacity in
labor and raw materials to out

production of mechanized equip

that Job for the past two years
we have failed and1 miserably
failed, and the sooner we as a
nation realize it. the better we
can remedy our mistakes and go
forward."
Among other things, he asked
suspension of the 40-hour week
during the emergency.
"Confusion, due to conflicting
and overlapping authority," Byrd
declared, "exists to - such a de
gree at Washington as virtually
to stymie 'he whole defense pro
gram." Te office, tit production man
agement and the office of price
administration and civilian sup
ply, he continued; "are engaged
in a bitter battle behind the
scenes, and by executive order
they have been given conflicting
authority."
