Noble American wives ore willing
to sec their husbands drafted to f ght
Japs for freedom bnjonet to bayo-
net in f cverInfc ited jungles But
what wife is wlIing to chance her
husbands life so some other able
bodied man can grab a government
Job thats useless and fat9 Not one
Married men will be called lo
arms by hundreds in fie next two
month by thrusands if a new le
gior cf draftro men are oducd to
government bueaus It will surely
happen too unless the American
people do something about it
Look at these facjs Gencral
Lewis D Ilershey director of se-
lective service no less safd recent-
ly that 100 000 married men were
needed to fill Novembers draft quo-
ta It Is estimated also that delay
In passing the teenage draft law
would bring 200000 more married
men into the service in December
Already there are 2700 000 civilians
on Uncle Sams payroll and new
bureaus are being organized con-
tinually making thousands of Wash-
ington jobs for men of draft age
How Bureaus Grow
One example will be enough to
show how government bureaus mul-
tiply Early In 1042 a manufacturer
with a war contract got caught pay-
ing his secretary 30000 a year The
nation Mas outraged and an indig-
nant congress devised a remedy in
haste It authorized the Army Navy
and Maritime Commission each to
set up a bureau to correct such
abuses Powers delegated to these
bureaus ate many and monstrous
like Frankenstein only triplets
These bureaus can make their
own rules and enforce them arbi-
trarily They can change the terms
of contracts already made They
can allow one company more profit
than another both dolrg the same
work They can not speed the war
effort Already they have each a
central board and arc busy setting
up branches In various cities out-
fitted with lawyers auditors and
technical advisors a plenty
Costly In WanPower
The purpose of oil this organiza-
tion is called renegotiation m an
ing to figure all v ar contracts aver
again and chanre tlcm if they t iow
too muchprofit fir anybody It is
going to take a lot of help The
Navy had only 1000 men at such
work on July 1 1941 a year tor
4 000 and tho ivy has only 10 per-
cent of the estimated three m llion
contracts to be renegotiated
You might ask Dont you be-
lieve in eliminating excessive profits
from war contracts I most cer-
tainly do I want every dollar of
boodle wrung out of them in a way
that will not consume the energies
of thousands of men who might bet-
ter be doing something to help win
the war President Roosevelt in
his famous September 7th address
told us how He said Recapture
through taxation all war profits not
necessary to maintain sufficient war
production And the Presidents
plan will work
Excessive Profts Rare
It Is a known fact that the Excess
Profits Tax already in force drains
DO per cent of excessive profits out
of war contracts But these new
boards pay no nttcntion to that
They re figure all contracts Here
is a fair example If a farmer hid
turned 00 acres of a 100 acre tract
with a gang plow and found ten
acres of odd patches unbroken he
might resort to smaller tools but
he would not hire men to spade the
whole 100 acres
The Presidents plan to recapture
excessive war profits would nojt
snuindcr manpower because ft
would utilize the Bureau of Internal
Revenue instead of organizing three
now bureaus one each in the Armj
the Navy and tho Maritime Commis-
sion Congies man Wesley E DIs
nej who lo has Iccn a leader in
sccUns to eliminate aite in gov-
ernment recently tried to amend the
law to conserve man power but with
little visible success
TI e BIsney Tlan
The Disney amendment provided
thit whenever a firm working on
government contracts showed a
profit after taxes lower than 2 per
tent of the contract price such con-
tracts could not be renegotiated He
said this would get around C5 per-
cent of the figuring and heres whj
There Is already a 00 per cent Ex-
cess Profits Tax in force and hardly
one firm In 20 can pay it and have
2 per cent profit left Tor my part
I believe it would have saved thou-
sands of men and millions of dollars
But the boards were busy organiz-
ing when Mr Disneys amendment
was ottered they fought It and
killed it Now while married men
take up arms and leave their wives
to run their fflrms other men of
like age will be getting soft bureau-
cratic well paid jobs Urging jour
coigressman to do tome thing about
it can still help Tho Disney amend-
ment would have helped greatly
This article is being published In
about 1C00 county newspapers It
is my sincere opinion tha congress
pa s more Mcrtlon to readers of
rural papors than to any other
group C ingress recognizes that peo-
ple who Uc on farms and In small
towns are the sanest most conserv-
ative and most dependable segment
of the nation appeal to rural
America to make its voice heard to
