Ugly Facts of Inflation Brush-Off
May Haunt Republican Campaign
By PETER EDSON
NEA Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON If President Truman had any previous doubts
about which was the wont Congress, they should all bt font by
now.
For th bruih-olf which the Republican leadership haa given
to hit anti-Inflation proposal! waa really of hurrlcana proportions.
It swept everything he laid on the table right Into the waste-baskets.
If by 10 doing the congressmen
think they can go home leaving
clean desks and clear consciences
behind them, they may be head
ed for unpleasant surprises. The
facts and figures which admini
stration leaders finally got to
gether for presentation to Con
gress may rise like ghosts out
of the scrapheaps Into which
they were swept, to haunt the
homing congressmen In the
months and years ahead.
President Truman pointed out
In his press conference state
ment that Senate and House Ag
riculture Committees never even
met to see if there was anything
they might do to Increase food
supplies or cut down prices to
the consumer.
House Ways and Means and
Senate Finance Committees,
which handle tax matters, did
not meet to consider President
Truman'a suggestions for the re
turn of excess corporations prof
Its taxes.
The House Banking and Cur
rency Committee went through
the motion of holding hearings
on the proposed antl-lnflatlon
bill. But this committee under
Chairman Jesse Wolcott of Mlchl-
?an refused to receive testimony
rom Secretary of Agriculture
Brannan, Secretary of Com
merce Sawyer, Secretary of In
terior Krug.
Wolcott, completely dominat
ing his committee, went ahead
In hla own way to Introduce his
own version of a credit-control
bill. It may do some good over
the long haul. But don't expect
to take a copy home, hand It
to your wife and expect that
she will ever buy with it any
more groceries for any less
money.
On the other side of the Cap
itol, Chairman Charles W. To
bey's Senate Banking and Cur
rency Committee turned in the
only praiseworthy record of the
special Congress, not only on in-

From Brannan the Tobey com
mittee heard that further In
creases In food prices particu
larly meat prices which have al
ready more than doubled In the
last two years are due this
year. The time to have started
holding meat prices In line was
six months ago, he said.
From Sawyer the committee
heard that the problem confront
ing the country was of the ut
most seriousness. It cannot be
met by Increased production,
which la already at capacity lev
els. What is needed, said Sawyer,
is iimued control to noia aonor
mal factors of demand In check,
and orloritlea to channel scarce
goods to essential production.
Danger f Inploslen
from Keyserllnz the commit
tee heard that inflation Is now
working hardship on millions of
families, industrial Drices are be
ing pushed to such heights that
goods cannot be disposed of.
There Is danger of an economic
explosion. The race upward be
tween prices and wages Is un
settling all business conditions.
All such splraling. booms have
In the past ended In busts.
To those consressmen anil
others who maintain that this is
lust a lot of scare stuff, the
best answer was given by Secre
tary of Agriculture Brannan,
who cited what had happened to
potatoes.

Bobbin' 'Round
By BOB PEMBERTON
The most cussed and discussed
column in tha News-Review. . .
It Is hard to criticise the efforts
of people In the sports world be
cause of the time and labor they
put out, even though this column
criticises for a better show for
fans. The greatest drawback Is
that you make enemies. These
enemies, however, must be plac
ed below the Idea of the sport.
With this in mind, and only this
In mind, does Bobbin' 'Round
ever criticise.
A personal Invitation. . . One
of the most under-publicized box
ing cards of the season will be
held at the Roseburg Armory to
morrow night Now here Is a
card worth your money. Thirty
fast and furioua rounds of rate
number one boxer's at prices
that are right: $1.80 for ring
side, $1.20 general admission and
.75c for kids.
In the main event Georgle O'
Rourke of Frisco, 185 pound
heavyweight, will meet Leo Tal
bot of Portland. In his last ap
pearance at Roseburg, Talbot de
cisioned Gordon McKay of Klam
ath Falls and put on the kind of
show fana like clever boxing
with left hook that stuns.
Bucky O'Conner, Roseburg, 137
lbs., meets Sammy Benton, 138
lbs., of Portland. In his last
twenty-four fights, O'Conner has
lost but four and looms as South
ern Oregon's best welterweight
Told you so ! Last Thursday,
August 5th, Bobbin' 'Round said,
"Sutherlin will win league hon
ors." If you have noticed they
play in the District playoffa In
Cottage Grove. What else can be
said !
FOOTBALL SHOES! Who
needs football shoes at the school
price of $9.95 ? What about foot,
balls at the school price of $7.50
to $20 f This football season
stands will not be filled to see
you "warm the bench" because
of faulty shoes. No Sir! You need
sturdy shoes to twist and turn In,
like the ones at Umpqua Valley
Hardware, Sports Dept Also be
wise by shopping early for gym
trunks, shirts and shoes at your
local sports center, UMPQUA

Patterned after the wartime
"walkie-talkie." the two-way ra

Commission said yesterday it

The commission said It will
take suggestions on regulations
