Even so. the bulges are not as menacing as the drive for the cancellation of all price-control by the National Association of Manufacturers. The NAM and its well trained supporters demand a return to a "free competitive economy," insisting that this is the only sure way to regain full productive capacity and prosperity in the Nation. They argue that the law ol supply and demand would automatically control our economic destiny. This is pure hokum out ol some antediluvian professor's textbook.

There is no supply, now. There is only demand. Salesmen have become order-takers. Having nothing to sell, they solicit orders for what they hope to have. People are buying automobiles from models without knowing the inspiring body has organized itself to bring about the abolition of OPA.

Others have been trying to amend it to death as did the House. For this state of affairs, the OPA itself is at leart partially to blame. The OPA should have steadfastly recognized that, just as there is no such thing as a "little" pregnancy, there is no such thing as a "Httle" inflation. Its repeated compromises and Fabian tactics in response to pressure groups have inspired Irresponsible inflationists to move in for the kill. It must now stand its ground.

It must cease tr give aid and comfort to the Nation's greatest enemy --inflation. Nor can the Congress afford to give succor to the enemy by killing the OPA. If It does so, many of the Congressmen are going to need all that Is left of their breath to do some explaining when the time comes that the people can no longer afford to pay for what they need to maintain a decent way of life.

In the lack of competition, uncontrolled prices would mean that the cost of products or services would rise to unreachable heights. Not until the deficiencies of our output resulting from the war are made up, can we rely upon competition to stabilize the price structure. And the people know These virtuous defenders of the i "American way" do not think of OPA as "price control;" they stig- I matize it as "profit-control." This sounds more menacing.

But their cleverness has earned them little favor. Recent polls show that the public, by four to one, feels the necessity for continuing price control.
