PAGE '!Wt Johnston Seems Happy To Return to Hollywood By GEORGE GLAZER Eric Johnston is apparently very happy that he's on his. way back to Hollywood • where he has only to deal with temperamental mo vie stars and apoplectic produ cers instead of individualistic cat tlemen and blustering congress men. And yet, he Creates the impres sion that he feels he was the win ner in the fight that lasted 11 month- 7 11 . long months full of aggravation. aggravation. Johnston knows what he is talking about—no one listening to him at the Community Forum Wednesday night, or at the in terview session afterwards, could question that. He held the aud ience in the palm of his hand for 50 minutes, and spoke for those 50 minutes without a flaw—and without a note. Discusses Economic Aid Unlike many people who crit icize government agencies or the Congress in particular, Johnston had a solution . for the problem that he posed. Johnston dipped quickly into the subject of economic aid. He pointed out in his speech that as far as the attitude of Euro peans toward America, it's one of a little awe, a little admira tion, respect and envy. Later, he said he was in favor of helping the countries of Eu rope get on their feet by setting them up to help themselves, ra ther than giving them gifts. Stabilization complete? One thing seems certain, in a time when most people are afraid of either coming out against loy alty oaths or saying something that may. impair their political chances for something or other, Johnston was refreshingly out spoken. He wasn't afraid to say what he thought. • The retiring Economic Stabili zer said returning the • power to regulate installment buying, building credit and slaughtering quotas would go a long way toward making the stabilization program complete. That was the ideal situation. Then he dealt with it realistically and said he didn't think the Congress would put such a program into effect. "Right now," he said, "at best (the stabilization agency) can on ly do a fair job." U.S. Should Be Strong However, Johnston did seem to feel that a depression, while al ways a distinct possibility, was not an immediate threat. He cited the rearmament pr o g - r am that would keep production up for a good number of years, and then support American strength fol lowing the rearmament as factors that would help keep the dangers of inflation to the minimum, He stated in no uncertain terms that the United States should be come strong, and stay that way. "There are far fewer risks in being 'strong than being weak," he said.
