SNARL OVER RECONVERSION One of the worst legislative snarls awaiting the senate when it returns, is reconversion. It has hardly got started on the tremendous task of putting America back to work at peacetime production. Difficulty began last February with publication of the widely publicized Baruch - Hancock report. Though this at first was hailed as a blueprint for peacetime conversion, many senators now admit it is woefully inadequate, provides excellent protection for capital and profits, but little protection against unemployment. Only comprehensive plan so far for real unemployment prevention during the reconversion period is contained in the bill written by Sen. Harley Kilgore of West Virginia. Kilgore had hoped to see his bill lent to the progressive committee an education and labor, headed by scholarly Sen. Elbert Thomas of Utah. But Assistant President Jimmy Byrnes, Bernie Baruch, and Wall Streets John Hancock, aided by army-navbig business elements, pulled the wires and switched the bill into the military affairs committee. 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 Montanas 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. Adequate plans for reconversion should have been completed before the congressional recess. But sedate, scholarly, unhappy Senator Murray is still sitting on the eggs. y TERESA WRIGHT cause she felt she wasnt ready for It she made four outstanding pictures, won an Oscar for her work In Mrs. Miniver, and was starred In her fourth one. t Paramount they claim that Lucy Tarr is the homeliest girl in Hollywood, and Lucy doesnt care.

Fact is, the Allies have several ways of checking on Hitlers physical condition. Captured newsreels and still pictures are closely compared with previous films for clues.
