War might end In a stalemate. It Is true that the United States, surrounded by oceans, Is in a strategic position. Russia has revealed the power to decentralize Its Industries: Also, Russia can fight a primitive Tvar, and her people can live in a primitive way.

Our greatest hope is in the power of the United Nations, and backing, up that organization in Its efforts for peace should be the policy of our country.

At the very outset, he declared that we are not going to get rid of the war problem by deposing Secretary of State nor by calling former President Herbert Hoover an isolationist.

Attention was called to the fact that history shows no nation has turned back when it has gone so far in the direction of war as we have. It is too easy, he declared, to blame 'the other side for conditions that have resulted In conflict. The strength of Democracy Is also its weakness. Dictatorship is based on power that car be used Immediately. The policy of war is an uncontrollable force.

Attention was called to the great Industrial development of our country after the last war. Now we have the power In the atomic bombs for mass destruction of people and the Industries that give them means of livelihood.

10. The steel industry's answer to defense demands has been an expansion program expected to cost $2,000,000,000. Completion of the program will bring American steel making capacity estimated by some experts at around 115,000,000 tons a year by the end of 1952. Such capacity would be a 15,000,000 ton rise with In 30 months after the Korean War outbreak. Whien the Communists attacked last June in Korea the annual capacity of U.

S. steel mills was 100, 563,000 tone, immediate plans were made to raise this to 109,93,000 tofts an undertaking announced In October by Secretary of Commerce Charles Sawyer. But expansion planning since then Indicates a capacity of at least 111,000,000 tons by the end of 1935 with some experts anticipating" 115.000,000 tons. An Idea of tho immensity of such expansion can be gained from the fact that Russian steel production for 1960 was estimated at 26, 500,000 tons, out of a world total of 194,154.000 tons. Production of steet in the United States in 1950 was a record smashing 96,900,000 tons and for 1951 is expected to come close or exceed 100,000,000.

Lewis Against All Control Of Wages, Prices By ROBERT E. ZEE, (United Press Staff Correspondent) Washington Jan. 10. John I Lewis advised the government today to abandon all thought of controlling either prices or wages. He said there is no need for such controls.

In any case, he added, "it la obviously impossible to freeze wages with any. equity when, the price structure is uncontrollable." The United Mine Workers' president told the Wage Stabilization Board that, despite the national de fense emergency, the UMW sees no reason for "putting the American economy in irons." Lewis, who has refused to join the United Labor Policy Committee presumably because it fears it may commit labor to a no strike pledge testified at board hearings on, federal wage control policy. The miners' hlef nreniAil that "stability of the economy" could bet ter be achieved through normal collective bargaining devices than through "arbitrary government fiat." Lewis Insisted that It will be "im possible," to control the commodity prices. Therefore, he said, there should be no federal freeze In wages. He' repeated demands for repeal of the Taft Hartley law.

Lewis said American productive capacity can taWe necessary expansion in "stride." But he said American workers are entitled to repeal or suspension of the labor law" for helping save the nation from Its enemies, whoever they may be." If the government will Just let labor and Industry alone, Lewis said, they can easily expand produc tion. He said the coal industry could Increase Its annual production by 20,000,000 tons. "Its available haul It away," Lewis said. To the Wage Board in an hour long talk and then to a news conference, Lewis listed three "infla tionary" factors which he said make it Impossible to control the price of any commodity. They are: 1 Escalator clauses In some union contracts which tie wage Increases to price movements.

2 Farm parity prices, fixed by law. 8 Lack of control over dividends which are subject to continual reinvestment. 1 Lewis emphasized that he was rot criticizing Industry earnings which he noted were higher than ever before. But he said the miners "reject the suggestion that the worker have his wages froien while dividends go on."
