WILLKIE AND COPPER On the platform of The New York Herald-Tribune Forum, when Wen- dell Willkie made his attack on Roosevelt for knocking the pins from under 17-cents-a-pound copper, was Defense Commissioner Leon Hender- son, price expert who was chiefly responsible for the price cut. The vital defense metal is now selling around 12 cents. When Willkie concluded, Hender- son turned and saw seated directly behind him the head of one of the leading brass companies, who the day before had sent Henderson a long telegram complaining about the price of copper. He had asked for a conference on the question of lift- ing the 4-cent tariff so he could buy 8-cent foreign copper Standing out on the business ex- ecutive’s lapel was a big Willkie button. Eying it, Henderson ob- served with a mischevious grin: “Well, fancy meeting you here! 1 really would have enjoyed this speech if I'd known you were in back of me. What did you think of your candidate’s views on the price of copper?” “I'll tell you when I see you in ‘Washington,” was the sour reply.

ON THE BATTLEFRONT REPS: GOP generalissimos credit much of the Willkie groundswell of [ ‘he last several weeks to a campaign vhich has been little publicized. They cal it “extra-organizational” juiet activity carried on by thous- ands of volunteers, many of them women. i It consists of house-to-house can- 2ssing, telephone calls, chain letters and local radio broadcasts. For ex- mple: In Ohio four entirely sep- rate radio campaigns, each financed ‘ocally, are under way for Willkie. ™ California 100 stations have been running nine Willkie announcements | faily and this week the number of tations has been doubled. In Atlantic City, at a meeting of manufacturers, Franz Stone of Ohio nersuaded them to telephone their | offices to purchase time on local stations for broadcasting Willkie | transcriptions.

S. Government. Ac- cording to Arnall, Willkie aired these views at a hearing on October 16, 1937, before the Georgia Public Serv- ice Commission, on an application by the Tennessee Electric Power Co., to float a stock issue. Arnall, then Assistant Attorney General, was interrogating Willkie when Willkie thundered he would not permit any of his men to work for the Government, because “I don’t think that little of them. I think too damn much of them.” Now, however, Arnall is telling his audiences, Willkie not only wants to work for the Government but to be ‘“head man.” POLITICAL CHAFF William L. Hutcheson, veteran President of the AFL -carpenters union, in a personal pique walked | out as acting head of the GOP Labor Campaign Committee, but still is carrying the torch for Willkie. In a letter to all carpenter locals, Hut- cheson urges the defeat of Roosevelt on the ground that the Justice De- partment invoked the anti-trust law | against unions. Hutcheson himself is under indictment on a restraint of trade charge. ... .The Women's Division of the Democratic National | Committee is all steamed up over two feminine candidates for Con- | gress — Mrs. Nan Honeyman of | Portland, Ore., who served a term | from 1936-38, and Mrs. Zoe Nabers, Ft.
