Washington, Feb. 23.—In case war actnally is declared one of the first steps to be taken by .the administra- tion will be to ask congress. for an- thority to commandeer all faw mater- ials necessary for the manufacture of munitions, This means cotton, wool, metals such as iron, copper and Yar- ious alloys used in shéll and gun mak- ing, coal, chemicals and possibly, also, foodstuffs, The plan to be followed is the same as that adopted abroad. The govern- ment would take possession of all these commodities at a ‘fair market value, to be fixed as of the time they are taken over. The government would furnish manufacturers the raw materials and pay them.a fair profit, not less than eight nor more than 20 percent, for their work in convert- ing the raw material into ‘articles needed for the prosecution of the war, Plan Approved. This plan is not only approved but urged by Secretary Daniels and by a majority of the president's cabinet. It is based on the advice of all the experts who have studied the war situation in England, France, Ger- many and Russia. The idea is to cut out high private speculative profits and to insure the efficient service necessary for successfully carrying on the war. Congress will be asked to grant gen- eral authority to the president to be exercised at the latter’s discretion, rather than to attempt to legislate as to detail. In discussions which have taken place in the cabinet and in counsels with the National Defense Teague, it has ‘been agreed that this is the only plan likely to be effective for checking private speculation and the enormous grafts which, in the The successor of Gen.

Prive fixing not accompanied by control of raw materials is found to be impossible. By taking over raw materials the Government can fix prices, and unquestionably would sooner jor, Jater take over stocks of food materials, and by fixing food prices on staple articles do much to- ed achievements in Cuba and the Phil- ippines. Pershing was born in Linn county, Mo., September 13, 1860, and was graduated from West Point in 1886, as second Heutenant of the famous Sixth cavalry. Since,then he has been constantly in the saddle.

In 1906, Pershing became governor of the Moro province. Combining di- plomacy with fighting qualities, he pushed his campaigns against the defeat of Bagsag in 1912. Pershing returned to the States in January, 1914, and became head of the Eighth brigade of the army, with headquarters at El Paso. Pershing was married in 1905 to Miss Frances Warren, daughter. of | enne, Wyo. His wife and three of his four children lost their lives in the burning of the Presidio, San Fran- cisco, on Aus, 27, 1935.
