A copy has been sent to Sir Alex- ander Cadogan, British represen- tative at the United Nations. This column has been able to ob- copy this confidential and it bears all the ear- marks of deliberately trying to inspire chaos in Palestine after the British leave Instead of turning over British equipment such as arms and arm- ored cars to the Jews who will be entrusted with governing the ‘coun- try and order, this squipment i destroyed or also 2 of ument preserving ordered been Pale years but, they or shred of operation is being passed on to the Je who take over May 16. is one brief pt secret British instruction tine for Trouble ish have tr not now in as co- Here the officials in Pale Master Plan All files are to be destroyed 2.

But we do not share his optimistic view of its anti-inflationary effect. For Mr. Green assumes that time worked in excess of 40 hours would be paid for at time-and-a-half rates. We doubt whether the addition of an hour to the working day would so reduce manufacturers’ overhead costs as to enabl them to absorb such vay increases and avoid increasing | the prices of their products. Proof to the contrary is afforded by the fact that many industries cling to the 40-hour week to avoid paying premium rates for overtime. There is no reason to believe that a mere Congressional ommendation in favor of longer | working hours, as urged by Mr. Green, would persuade {such employers to change their working schedulcs In a good many industries, moreover, shortag of materials or restricted plant capacity are the really | limiting factors on production. To lengthen working hours in such cases would merely mean paying work- ers to idle on their jobs In his ‘conomic -Report noted that so far as the farm output is concerned were shortages are mest acute weather will be the major determining factor. On the industrial side, basic shortages in coke, steel, other metals, petroleum railway c and motive power, traceable to a variety of causes, certainly cannot be overcome in the near future merely by adding an hour to the working day. Because there is no single, quick means of bringing supplies of many essential articles into balance with existing high demands, the President has urged adop- tion of his 10-point anti-inflation program. Mr. Green goes along with the President; indeed, his indorsement of the longer working week is conditional on gressional approval of anti-inflation measures, ex- | cluding, of course, wage controls which he rejects as “unrealistic’ and “unworkable.” We are forced to conclude that Mr. Green was just talking for the record. For he is undoubtedly aware that his pro- posal, even if acceptable, would not prevent labor from pressing for further wage increases in the absence of | wage controls ON ple of Southeast | rting all of the| members of Con- Senator Hugh | 1g an end to the dhe Secretary of Alaska for the by il this legislation in the establish- the establishment heast Alaska was where the | recent the President dissolved, e is the power of | the Wheeler- | rvations for the which the white the owners.

Too many of | its members were away on trips, Congressmen complained. Finally when Congress was con- vened there elapsed weeks and weeks of hearings, debate, argu- ment, and secret GOP meetings at ! the home of Kansas isolationist Senator Reed, all at a leisurely pace as if the world was perfectly normal and there wasn't the; slightest need to hurry. | Meanwhile Russia has gobbled ! Czechoslovakia, tightened its hold on Finland, and is preparing for an early strike at Italy After that, France. Some Republicans—notably Ma- | lone of Nevada, Ecton of Montana and Wherry of Nebraska—are too dumb to know what the world sit- uation is all about. But other GOP obstructionists—among them Know- land of California and Ball of Minnesota are smart enough to realize that a few millions of dol- | lars spent now can save thousands of lives later. So far, however, | they haven't. The debate in Congress boils down to the fact that either the Marshall Plan is worth voting for or im isn't. If it's to be dragged out until after Russia swallows Burope then it might as well be kissed oft riqm now.
