Southern Industrialist Asks Roosevelt Compare Doc trine and Practice NA3HYILI.E Sent. 18 — r!,» the government of the « nit*r« States live up to its promise o ••eliminating 'unfair competitive practices by indulging e ^ practices itself"? Should not t e government set the example o^ fair dealing with its own citizens. John E. Edgerton, president of the Southern States Industrial Council, asked these questions to dav in a letter to President Roose velt -setting out specific promises of fair competition undei the XRA. and protesting vigorously against the "continued govern mental invasion of the fields o. competitive enterprise. Mr Edgertop. on behalf of Southern manufacturers, points out that he has already protested to Harry L. Hopkins, administra tor of the Federal Emergency Re lief Administration, aeainst the manufacture and distribution ot ] mattresses by relief administra tions. Since this protest, he de clares. hundreds of letter? from throughout the South have con tained additional expressions of alarm and it has been learned | that "the government of the United States and its subdivisions through their various depart ments and agencies are manufac turing and distributing some 200 different commodities in competi tion with the productions of pri vate enterprise.*^ He called special attention to the government's intention to manufacture shoes and leather products from the hides of cattle from the drouth areas and to the "quiet preparation of the Tennes see Emergency Relief administra tion" to manufacture and distri bute wagons. The "declaration of policy ot the National Industrial Recovery Act, Mr. Edgerton pointed out, promises "to eliminate unfair competitive practices' and "to promote the fullest possible uti.i zation of the present productive capacity of industries. "When the government goes : into anv business in competition : with its own citizens, can it be said that it is promoting 'the full est possible utilization of the pres ; ent productive capacity of indus tries?" ! "It is commonly known that : there are extremely few indus : tries that are now operating to [the extent of their productive c& I pacity. By going into competition I with private enterprises, just how , is the government stimulating ' them and promoting the fullest ' possible utilization of their ca pacities? On the contrary, gov ! eminent competition by its very .nature must have exactly the op posite effect. i "It seems to me, therefore, Mr. I President, that through these acts the government is violating both the letter and the spirit of its own law for its citizens. "I believe that it is hindering the very cause of recovery to which it has dedicated itself, and the*e unfair practices on the part oi, the jrovernment are undoubt edly tending to destroy public confidence in the Industrial Re covery Act a.-s a virtuous remedy. •'There are many of us, the most of us, I believe, who are sincerely trying to co-operate with you and your co-laborers in bringing back economic prosper ity to our nation. With much that has been and is being- done we are in entire sympathy. ''In pointing out those parts of the program which appear to us to be impractical, unsound, un democratic. or otherwise wrong, we are trying to be helpful and not destructively critical," he de clared. Mr. Edeerton pointed out, rela tively to the government's manu facture of mattresses, that in Tennessee alone there are 24 mattress factories which are op erating at less than 50 per cent capacity and which are sufficient ly equipped to produce all the mattreses of any kind needed in the state. "The same thing is no doubt true of most, if not all, the other states. If these factories, built and poerated by private capital, I were srive. ,, Federal K; > istration. the;, c employ a. many idle as the tr' require for it.
