Reactionaries Plot Death Of
Price and Wage Controls
By PAUL S. GREEN
The Dixiecrat-Republican coalition ruling the Senate
Banking Committee has taken a decisive step that may end
in the destruction both of the price control program and
the Wage Stabilization Board.
On the wage issue, the
committee decided to strip
the board of power to recom
mend wage dispute settle
ments, and to strip it of its
industry and labor members,
leaving it only with so-called
public members. This is the
proposal of Sen. Everett M.
Dirksen (R., 111.) and is sub
stantially what was demand
ed by the board’s industry
members and by Charles
Wilson former mobilization
chief.
Green Warns
William Green, AFL presi
dent, has warned that labor
might boycott the wage sta-|
bilization program if labor is!
deprived of a voice in setting j
wage policies.
Nathan P. Feinsinger, the
Chairman of WSB, had told
the committee that, “1 can
not concur in the notion that
the interests of labor and
management are somehow in
consistent with the public in
terest.”
Feinsinger also had said
that it was his opinion that
the rulings of the board
have been more acceptable
because labor, business, and
the public have been repre
sented. He saw no gain in
an all-public board, and
warned against the rejection
of such a board’s recommen
nations.
Public Power Only
The Senate Banking com
mittee action further makes
certain of the board’s im
potency by taking away its
power to recommend wage
dispute settlements. It would
| have to do with policy only.
The vote for this step to
i virtually kill WSB was for
the proposal Democrats May
bank and Robertson, and Re
publicans Ives, i Capehart.
Schoeppel, Pirksen, and Bric
ker. Voting against were
Democrats Douglas, Moody,
and Benton.
On prices, the committee
| voted tto extend the controls
program only until next
March, changing a prelim
j inary decision for a year’s
extension from June 30, the
expiration date. President
Truman had asked for a 2
year extension.
Such a step is a threat to
the program because the new
Congress w ill not be organiz
ed and in action passing
measures by March 1, and
the probabilities are that
the program will be lost in
the shuffle, and automatical
ly brought to an end.
Further, Sens. Paul Doug
las and Blair Moody, Demo
cratic members of the corp
I mittee, declared:
“All the amendments
adopted were weakening
amendments favoring spe
cial interests. The committee
j did not adopt a single
st rengthening amendment
favoring the consuming pub«
lie.
’The consumers as such

have no lobby in their be
half. The committee’s ac
tion shows that the consum
er's voice is woefully weak
and all too little attention is
paid to his interests.
Can’t Remove Controls
“As it stands, the measure
is better than nothin?, even
though the dikes are weak
ened. The time has not yet
come when the American
people dare remove controls
entirely.”
The whole chorus f of Big
Business, led by the National
Association of Manufacturers
and the U. S. Chamber ot
Commerce, had called for the
complete scrapping of con
trols now. Apparently the
commitee majority did not
dare do that yet, but they
may accomplish the same
purpose by this bill, which
weakens the program suffi
ciently to pave the way for
letting it die next year.
Voting for this proposal
were Democrats Maybank,
Frear, and Robertson, and
Republicans Ives, Capehart,
Schoeppel, Dirkson, and
Pricker, Voting against it
were Democrats Douglas,
Moody, Benton, and Ful
bright.
The fight now shifts to
the Senate floor, where the
outnumbered band, of pro
gressives will continue to
battle against legislation for
special interests.
