Manufacturer Demands OPA End;
Calls On Morse To Check Lewis
f PORTLAND, May 7 UP) Rob
rrt R. Wason, president of the
National Association of Manu
facturers, told northwest indus
trialists here that "getting rid of
OPA" is necessary to stem the
tide of inflation.
He also called for congress to
"dethrone John L. Lewis" to get
f traduction back to normal and
ill the needs of the American
people.
- Lashing out at critics of the
association in a speech last night
to 430 member industrialists,
Wason declared "OPA is the
parent of all black markets" and
aid the widespread operation is
creating a "nation of law viola
tors." OPA and Inflation
"The nation will never get rid
of the threat of inflation until it
gets rid of OPA," the manufac
turer asserted as he charged OPA
Administrator Paul Porter and
Reconversion Director John Sny
der with using "selected prices"
to make a false picture of price
rises. He said NAM's check with
federal reserve board price in
dices for the same periods clearly
indicated prices had not risen
s much as Snyder and Porter
claimed and had declined in most
cost of living items.
Chester Bowles, former OPA
chief and now stabilization di
rector, was criticized by Wason
for "expecting production to
climb on red ink."
"The American people are
entitled to the facts," he said.
"It is time to stop being bluffed
by the phoney figures and the
misleading claims put out by
the government to defend OPA."
Wants Morse to Act
The NAM president attacked
Oregon's Senator Morse (R) who
in a St. Louis speech had de
clared the NAM opposition to
OPA was "inspired by greed."
Wason called for Morse to ini
tiate the legislation to dethrone
Lewis. He said if "Morse is not
too greedy for votes he will ini
tiate the legislation to dethrone
John L. Lewis and restore the
American people to power."
He charged "so-called liberals,
the crackpots and all the job-hangers-on
in America" as those
who are unanimously in favor
of continuing OPA.
