There it comes under reactionary, egotistic Chairman Robert R. Reynolds of North Carolina. The Kilgore bill is an measure designed to insure full production and full employment after the war, all within the framework of private enterprise. Surplus property disposal plans are included; also employment training, coordination among government agencies and most objectionable to the reactionaries emergency federal unemployment insurance. Lehman Brothers' John Hancock, who opposes this, has even stated flatly that he thinks a little unemployment after the war will be a good thing to depress wage levels. A deal was made by its enemies to place the Kilgore bill under Montana's Senator Murray, who has . been pressured by Senator George, Hancock and Baruch to kill it. Meanwhile, the unhappy Murray has been receiving brickbats on the other side from labor because of his stalling.

Adult Hitler's health has been attracting considerable attention in Washington lately. Fact is, the Allies have several ways of checking on Hitler's physical condition. Captured newsreels and still pictures are closely compared with previous films for clues. Likewise, record ings of Hitler's latest speeches are compared with earlier talks. Recently, Hitler made two speeches in one week. Both were broadcast by the German radio. A group of Intelligence officers and diplomats who heard him were surprised at the tone of his voice. The First marine division, with 2,743 happy members, arrived in San "Hitler sounded listless," commented one expert. "He sounded Diego after 26 months in the South Farlfic.
