• WASHINGTpN—Poesible repeal of the Smlth-ConneUy act h
believed to be behind John L. Lewis' efforts to obtain a new wage
boost immediately from the government. “ ’ . -
There h§ve been report* In 'Washington that in January the new
Con great will wipe out the war-time statute which provides for
government seizure of properties in labor dleputea. --
Hence, the government may have to restore the soft coal mines—
seized last May because ota strike—to their own-
I era before peaceful relations are re-established
between the operators and the UMW.
HEHPrS AJ patently sensing such a possibility, Lewis
BF t^m called for a negotiating conference with the gov-
■WT 1 /QrM emment Nov. 1 to consider changer, n wa^es and
hours. Undoubtedly he w tnta to obtain a new
■U/' contract before the government steps out of the
ooal business.
The bituminous operators have not even agreed
to accept the present governnient-UMVV contract.
Lowi* Fours Eorly Return

The Buyer Can Bring Prices Down
Recent half-hearted attempts on the part of retailers
and consumers to stop the spiral of inflation give rise to
hope that more serious efforts along this line are in the
offing. It now should be evident to anyone with the least,
ability to analyze events of the immediate past that any
attempt on the part of the government to do the job is
doomed to failure before it starts.
For some reason it is the nature of the American
people, except when in peril, to resist all attempts by the
government at regimentation when such efforts appear to
infringe upon their personal liberties. Consequently they
make a shambles out of things like prohibition and peace
time price control Some times the government is prone to
forget this fact and when it does things get in a mess.
During the recent period of tight federal control over
prices there was no organized effort whatever toward boy-
cotting items which rose to unreasonable prices. Since re-
laxation of these controls, the “no-buy” idea seems to be
catching the fancy of retailers and consumers alike all
over the nation and soon this movement, if prices con-
tinue to rise, may resolve itself into an organized boy-
cott which will bring prices down to a reasonable level:
In the process it may even mete out a bit of justice by
shearing a few of the speculators who have conspired to
add to their fortunes at the expense of the consuming
public.
Material difficulties and shortsighted union policies
which cause production slow-downs are still too general
to permit any relief from high prices by increased pro-
duction and consequent lowered costs. If the cost of liv-
ing comes down at all in the near future it simply must
be as a 'result of . unwillingness on the part of the con-
sume!' tu pay more than a Reasonable price for any arti-
cle or service and to exercise sufficient self-control to
deny himself these things or to accept substitutes until
they are within reach of his pocket book.
« MOST UNNOTICED Uev figure In Washington
in recent flays was Walter Bedell Smith, once the
John l. Lowi* doughty general, but now. wrapped In multl-a
brown pencil-striped suit—the United States amr
bassador to probably the world's most important post, Moscotv.
Smith came to town shortly after the 21-Power Paris Peace
Conference. He took an obscure office on an untravelled corridor of
the state department. He conferred only with President Truman
and Secretary of State James Byrnes. He wo* also frequently In
touch with the Russian desk which kept him current on day-to-dny
developments at his post In Moscow. ' ■
Thu* Smith kept himself under wraps and would not discuss
United States-R sso relations.
However, It may be a reassuring note In a confusing situation to
know that the ambassador, like ~.ny householder, wai wot king on
problems of getting his embassy In order. Prices have risen In
Moscow as well as Kalamazoo, New Fork and Evansville.
• • • •
• GOVERNMENT CONTROL OFFICIALS concede that the price
control program Is scuttled and that from here on out It Is onlv a
matter of liquidating what remains of OPA.
This liquidation process may stretch over a period of many
months, possibly until the agency expires by law on June 30. next.
But the stabilization line Is gone. It. Is like Humpty-Dumpty -im-
possible to restore. * .
OPA officials want to ketip controls on rents and building mn-
t,. i in Is more than anything else because of. they say, the housing
shortage and veterans' low cost housing programs
Clothing ami shoes are still on the control bill, hut predictions
are that the supply situation may be eased by next spring and Hurt
