Bitter OPA Critic Says
Price Control Still
Is Needed for Year
The House has gone a little too
far in its treatment of OPA, Lew
Hahn, general manager of the Na
tional Retail Dry Goods Association,
and one of OPA's most bitter critics,
declared last night at the 12th
annual dinner of the Electric In
stitute of Washington.
Mr. Hahn lauded most of the
amendments approved by the House
for curtailment of OPA policies but
expressed the belief that price con
trol should be continued for another
year, instead of the nine-month
period approved by the House.
"It may be that Congress has gone
a little too far,” Mr. Hahn said.
“Price control is still necessary, and
I feel that it would be unsafe to
remove it for another year.” .
The speaker said that from the
long-term point of view it might be
best to end price control now but:
expressed the belief that the dis
location period following such a
move “would be tough."
“Many retailers would be hurt
eventually by sudden removal of
price controls and sharply spiraling
prices would result in public con
demnation of anything that looks
like profiteering,” Mr. Hahn de
clared.
Mr. Hahn said most of the re
strictive amendments approved by
the House were vitally needed to free
American economy from crippling
OPA regulations. He said his or
ganization never has been opposed
to price control and had led the
fight for it, but declared that many
OPA rules were throttling industry.
Turning to postwar production,
Mr. Hahn said industry is willing
and able to do its part.
Sees $50,000,000 Business.
William G. Hills, managing direc
tor of the Electric Institute, also
spoke at the dinner held in the
presidential room of the Statler
Hotel. Mr. Hills estimated the elec
tric industry here expected to place
more than $50,000,000 worth of elec
trical equipment on the market dur
ing the next three years.
He disclosed that the institute will
operate a year-around exhibit at
the Potomac Electric Power Co. of
fices, Tenth and E streets N.W., in
cluding a theater which will show
the various improvements in the
home effected by electricity.
A. G. Neal, president of PEPCO,
said that during the next year the
company will spend $230,000 on an
extensive advertising campaign.
Half of this amount will be spent
for newspaper ads, one-fourth for
radio programs and the remainder
for display advertising and exploita
tion, he said.
Poetry Congress Announced
Several members of the Washing
ton Chapter of the Catholic Poetry
Society are planning to attend the
Congress on Poetry to be held April
28 at Hunter College, New York. The
congress will be held under the
auspices of the Catholic Poetry So
ciety of America.
