Edson in Washington Worried Small Businessmen May Soon Get Help WASHINGTON Almost small business men who have been crying pretty much in vain that the national defense program with its prioritics set-up and contract disruin tribution to business is about to get quick relief if the government accepts a plan outlined Holcomb, head of Small Business Section of the AntiTrust Division of the Department of Justice.

In a memorandum to Assistant Attorney General Thurman Arnold, Holcomb says he is convinced that the primary need of small business is an with authority to act swiftly on agency independent governmental specific complaints and problems. It might be called the Office of Small Business Problems. It would serve as a forum where complaints could be heard and as an independent advocate of the cause of small business, More important, it would act. as a trouble-shooter to represent small business and get action, and it would have to be clothed ample power, The President would probably have full authority to appoint such a board, but Holcomb thinks it would have even more force if congress enacted a law creating it. The membership would be composed of small business men with a few lawyers to give legal advice.

More than 'half the complaints from small business men received by Holcomb were drafted after they had failed to get relief from other departments of the government. He. found small business men as a whole were distrustful of the Office of Produc-: tion Management. The leading figures on OPM were big business dollar-ayear men, corporation attorneys, labor leaders and professional economists. Evidence Piles Up Time after time small business men complained to Holcomb that they saw their big.

competitors securing priority material after trips to Washington. Holcomb cited a case where a be Michigan boiler manufacturer said tion at an Oklahoma airport, but the was the lowest bidder for installa-! award was made to a company bidding $1700 higher. Holcomb contacted the officials in charge and the Michigan man finally got the contract. A small but well known manufacturer of outboard motors complained that he was about to close his plant because of priority shut-down on materials, while only 16 miles away his largest competitor was operating full swing on government and civilian contracts. Holcomb has tackled this proble and hopes for results.

L. M. Evans, presdient of Small Business of America, from his office in Cleveland, has written President Roosevelt complaining that small business men are under a siege of economic boycott as strangling as the tightest military blockade. He assorts thousands of small business men who with their employes constitute the largest taxpaying group in every city and state, are facing ruin, Says Evans: "This pending calamity must be laid at the door of the administrators of national defense who havve. flagrantly discriminated against small business.

Big business has received every consideration, small business none. Perhaps we should have expected this, for the men who head the defense administration are nearly all from big business." As Senators Sec It Congress is getting restive about this problem. Senators are not convinced that the President's naming of Floyd Odlum as of OPM's division of contract distribution is a solution. Senator Hatch of New Mexico, head of a special committee to investigate defense program contracts, is alarmed lest America have the experience of Britain, where 20,000 manufacturing plants were shut down almost overnight in the changeover from peace to a war economy. According to Odlum's own estimate, 2 per cent of the supply of strategic materials would enable 30,000 to 000 small metal-working U.

S. plants to continue during the first half of 1942. Senator O'Mahoney of Wyoming, complaining that the little fellows are ed for their home in Indianapolis Monin the city.
