What Penrose Thinks
About ''Dictatorships"
SENATOR PENROSE fears that
Congress may go too far in at
tempting to lower food prices; that
"frail human beings" mny receive
power to mako or break great indus
tries; that crooks may become
wealthy through dictatorship. He
said in part:
"Wo are making n great mistake
tn creatine all theso commissions
"and dictatorships We nro giving a
tremendous power into the hands of
a few people. I think there is a
lot of fake and buncombe about it.
There is danger in it, too. Why, if
I wanted to make money and didn't
carexhow I would resign my seat in
the Senate any day to nccept one of
these dictatorships. Just think
what an opportunity for a crook in
fixing prices!"
Besides, he argued, causes of high
prices arc largely beyond the con
trol of dictators inadequate trans
portation facilities, for instance.

WASHINGTON, June 2(5.
I The Senate Agriculture Subcommit-
tee today voted to broaden the House
food control bill to include regulation
of coal, steel, oil, petroleum products,
' farm implements and other necessaries.
' The committee amended the bill to ex
clude from control of the food adminls-
. trator food consumption what the poo
I pie shall serve on their tabic. It was
J" further agreed to release the farmer
" from all regulations under the bill,
covering power to requisition products.
WASHINGTON. June 20.
, $L The great prohibition fight, pending In
the Senate, today endangered tha whole
legislative program. The l.eer food-control
"bill Is blocked by tho tremendous confusion
resulting from Injection of the sweeping
dry addition by the House. Threats nnd
Counter-threats from opposing factions have
brought nbout a situation perhaps unprece
dented In tho upper branch. As a result
reaction today set In In forco against the
drastic dry measure as un adjunct to the
food bill.
"Let prohibition go through on Its own
merits, and not under the food-control
measure," urged ono dry member today.
Letters and telegrams poured In from all
sections and from all factions, tho radical
prohibitionists hailing tho situation as pro
pitious to put across a nation-wide dry bill
and the more conservative urging against
hitching prohibition to tho food measure.
Meantime the Senate Finance Committee
members are mulling over nrguments of ex
perts dealing with loss of revenue If the
prohibition amendment carries
Some emphasize that $760,000,000 In taxes
to the Federal Government and $3,000.
000,000 or more to Individual States and
cities In licenses, taxes and the like will be
lost through the prohibition amendment.
To which proponents reply, "Yes, but this
tax money, and the billions Involved In tho
annual business of the breweries, distilleries
and saloons, will thereby be diverted to
other business channels which can bo drawn
on for taxes."
And again, those opposed point out that
under the House amendment even house
hold dainties and children's delights are
threatened because vanilla, lemon nnd
orange extracts could not be manufactured
even for flavoring, cooking, Ice cream, soda,
candles and cake.
In addition to the prohibition fight, tha
food bill was threatened from another angle
There Is nil effort on foot to overload the
.measure so It cannot move Senator Heed
(Mo.) and numerous others say that If
food Is controlled, steel, oil, clothing
everything from a sack of peanuts to farm
Implements mURt also be controlled.
Amendments designed to accomplish this
re In reserve.
Already the bill Is carrying some super
annuated measures, such as the Welsh nil
land leasing bill, which has been before the
Senate five years, and the preferential rout
ing bill, passed by tho Senate some time ago.
With this tangled skein to unravel, the
Senate Agriculture Subcommittee met early
today to redraft tho House bill It was
hoped this committeo would be able to
report out to tho full committeo tomorrow,
and that the bill would bo on the tloor for a
finish fight late Wednesday or Thursday.
Tha House dry amendment will bo re
written to clarify It, but will not be changed,
according to present committee plans.
PENROSE FEARS CROOKS
MAY GET DICTATORSHIPS
WASHINGTON June 26. Senator Pen
rose Is afraid Congress will go too far In
attempting to lower food prices In passing
a food control hill.
As ranking Republican member of the
Senate Finance Committee the Senator
discovered the possibility that some "frail
human being" might bo appointed to a
dictatorship and expressed concern over
the fate of big business concerns under
such legislation. The Senator's position Is
Indicative of the attitude of the Old Guard
leaders on the eve of the fight on the Ad
ministration food control bill. Here la
how the senior Pennsylvania Senator ex
pressed his views:
A. food control bill In soma form will
be passed by Congress. Whether It will
embody the prohibition provision adopted
by the House remains to be seen. It Is
possible that a majority of the Senate will
stand by the amendment proposed by
Senator Gore, and which will be. voted
Into the war revenue bill. This amend
ment places a prohibitive tax upon grain
used In the manufacture of distilled spir
its, but does not affect beer and light
wines further than to put a war tax upon
them.
It may be that the Senate will vote to
accept the IIouso provision which for
bids the use of grain Jn the manufacture
of Hplrltuous and malt liquors. I have
made no canvass of the situation and do
not know what strength the proposition
will command.
Whllo we all want to take such rea
sonable steps as will protect the people
frnm extortionate prices on the necessa
ries of life, yet I cannot but feel we are
making a mistake tn creating all these
commissions and dictatorships. We are
tying a tremendous amount of power Into
the hands of a few people. I think there
Is a lot of fake and buncombe about It
And there l danger In It. too.
Just tblak what an opportunity for a
rook tn fixing the price of eoal or cop
Mr, er wheat, or steel, or any on of the
mmrny article the market price of which
la, a4fctcd by tho price the OoTcrnmeot
Batya and the amount It bays!
Ntt doubt the men whom tho President
rllf appoint to these dictatorships will be
ipjijh, class, honest, clean men, but we
BHHOt lose sight of- the fact that In
reting these places" 'and transferring
mm broad powers we are giving Into the
hands of a few frail human .beings not
tiily tiemendou authority, but the power
t,, nialw or break great business con-
vor and to vitally affect wt inauauiei
hip r m atysur- . !-,
to do what we can to hold prices down
within the reach of tha average family,
tlut when we Investigate we find that In
A larite measure the high prices are due
to natural causes, which no dictator
could change. For Instance, Inadequate
transportation facilities play n consid
erable part In thrae war prices, since we
have not the proper means of distribution.
A food dictator cannot Increase railroad
facilities.
During the recent hearings on the rev
cnuo bill I learned something on this ques
tion which rather surprised me. It seems
that the railroads require a billion dollars
a year for betterments. In order to keep
pace with the demand made upon them
and be able to furnish the transporta
tion the country needs. For several years
past tho rnllrondi hac been unable to
expend mora than 1600,000,000 n year In
betterments, which accounts for the fac
that they liavo not kept up with the
progress made by the Industries, and ex
plains why In this crisis they are unable
to meet tlio demands upon them.
ThU U n rendition which no food dicta
tor, no matter how broad may be hi
powers, ran rure. And there are other
feature that are Jimt as utrlklng. I can
not rid myself of the fear that Cnnjrre
Is likely to go too far In It teal for
ameliorating the condition that hate
arisen.
