That is the qitestion of paramount
concern here following statements on

statements emphasized these points:

than live in a world that is dominat

production of supplies is “valueless
unless laid down.at Britain’s doorV
and urged “pnmipt and effective ac
tion” at any cost. Mr. Rockefeller,
who has in the past been bttterlj op
posed to the New Deal aclmjnistra-
tion, also urged “a united public
opinion solidly behind the presidmt.”
Labor problems, which seemed for
a time to be lessening, have caused
another flun7 of demimd for laws
to curb strikes—particularly as a re
sult of the difficulties that had been
encoimtersd in the coal industry.
