Jobs Question Still Snag in Reconversion (Continued from Page 1) ibis still seemed Insufficient, the government could ask Congress to create jobs at Federal expense. However, the pending bill by it self involves no Federal spending. Chairman Wagner of the Sen ate group that is hearing testi mony on this proposal, said to day lie thinks a further cut in the work-week, perhaps to 3t hours, , is ."probably necessary to assure full employment in the years ahead." A House committee has ap proved a bill to abolish the three man surplus property board and to put one man in charge of the task of selling billions of dollars worth of unwanted government goods and property. That gives the House a chance to vole on it soon.

Leather WPB removed re strictions on using leather in a lot of things like luggage, belts, and wallets. WPB said there's enough leather no-.v . to increase shoe production "substantially and rapiclb'." OPA said rationing will end When WPB says pro duction is fast enough to meet the nation's needs. It's your guess. Before World War II, the phys ical assets of the United States were eslimated ut more than 350 billion dotlnrs. HE'S ON THE 1 -uiyl c III il t . x , ' -v .v.i i lie.
