Some lit tle time ago Chester Bowles, head f OPA, was gratified to receive liberal appropriations so he could hire several thousand new inves tigators to round up violators of price regulations. Thus, at a time when there is still a shortage of manpower for essential work, 15, 000 or more are to be added to the federal payrolls to do what? en force the laws and collect the taxes. What kind of commentary is that on our patriotism? On our respect for law?" The fact reveals a deep streak ' of lawlessness among the Amer ican people. It emerged before during prohibition and was the real cause of the breakdown of thajt noble experiment It may be admitted that OPA price regula tions are difficult to comply with jn all respects because they are to complicated and in some in stances Impractical.
