Most German Brakes On U. S. War Output, Released, Arnold Says Cartel Curbs Ended, Although Some Sub Rosa “ Work Still Is Noted By the Associated Press. . * Assistant Attorney General Thur- man Arnold told .a congressional committee today that German. in- fluence still was affecting produc- tion of critical war materiel in some instances in. this country, but said | that it hadl been wiped out almost completely since the United States entered the war. “A certain amount of it is still | going on sub-rosa,” he said, “but as ] far as the great American companies are concerned, it has stopped.” Mr. Arnold, testifying on defense | a House Military | contracts before Affairs Subcommittee, sati produc- tion of nearly every essential war | material was held down before the war by cartel agreements between domestic and foreign corporations. | He emphasized, however, that he | was making no charge of lack of patriotism or accusation of an at- tempt “to disarm America” on the part of this Nation’s industry, and | said the agreements were motivated by an attempt to boost gnd control prices through monopolies By creat- ing shortages. He said that Germany utilized and violated the anti-productive cartel nrrangemems to get ready for war. “We must guard against recur- rence of these agreements after the war,” he cautioned. Mr. Arnold, who handles the Gov- ernment’s anti-trust cases, said that business had co-operated in the war effort “as a whole,” but added that there were bound to be some at- tempts at profiteering.

January 3, | that British oil well destruction efforts failed and that some of | the wells were already in pro- | duction for Japan.) He said the government was in- vestigating reports that British forces failed to destroy equipment of value to the Japanese at Penang. but added that accounts reaching London suggested there had been “considerable exaggeration” of the | extent of the failure. | The ‘scorched-earth policy” will be ruthlessly applied in Malaya where, he said. the war council in Singapore has been instructed that all stocks of rubber, copra, refined metals, vils and other valuable com- mcdities. mining plants and trans- port be denied to the enemy.

Tomii said it was disrespect- ful. | Queenx ‘Barge. Rossvan’s ‘Comment Selections for a Fast Track at Tropical Park BEST BET—VICTORY BOUND. FIRST RACE— MEXICANA, RUGGED ROCK, FLY GENT. MEXICANA was a consistent gelding out Chicago way and he has worked well since arriving in Florida. He could brihg. home the bacon at the first local asking. RUGGED ROCK hasn't won for quite a while but he is reported ir? the pink of condition. FLY GENT just missed in his last here. SECOND RACE—EVEN TEMPO, MISS FOLLY, TOUR. EVEN TEMPO raced greenly in her debut, but closed a lot of ground when settled into stride. She has a corking chance of breaking her maiden in this af- fair. MISS FOLLY just failed to win her last and she is as good as the effort suggests. TOUR has raced well at this Tropical ses- sion. THIRD RACE—VICTORY BOUND, LIGHT SWEEPER, BORDER’S BOY. VICTORY BOUND won his first test of the meeting in ex- cellent running time and took third honors in his last outing. His general good form entitles him to the nod. LIGHT SWEEP- ER has been threatening and this spot is not beyond his powers. BORDER'S BOY could complete the payoff picture. FOURTH RACE —LAYAWAY, LONG HOPE, COURTEOUS. LAYAWAY has shown plenty of early lick in his local tests and he appears to be improving with each attempt. He could trim this good opposition at a sweet price. LONG HOPE just failed to click in his last and he may be hard to turn back. COURTEOUS has a nice local win to recommend him. FIFTH RACE—] SHADOWS PASS, TRACE. BALMY SPRING has won both of his Tropical tries in fast time and it is going to take a very good performance by one of the others to defeat him. SHADOWS PASS has captured four straight efforts and he is a much improved horse. BRIGHT TRACE has been threatening to whip a field of this sort. BAL\IY SPRING, BRIGHT SIXTH RACE—HIGH ONE, DAILY DELIVERY, ABOYNE. HIGH ONE has been right there in both of his local outings and just slight improvement would be necessary for him to trim these good ones. DAILY DELIVERY just missed in his last and he figures to be in the thick of the scramble. ABOYNE copped in the mud on opening day and he is fit. SEVENTH RACE—SANDY BOOT, OVERSIGHT, LA JOYA. SANDY BOOT has had two conditioners at this oval and he won previously at Pimlico. The veterzn campaigner has as good a chance as anything else in this affair. OVERSIGHT will be clos- ing fast in the stretch run and he rates stout consideration. LA JOYA is good now and she will be close up. Other Selections By the Associated Press.
