Friends See Willkie Avoiding Official Post
Friends of Wendell L. Willkie say the 1941 Republican nominee seeks to avoid official government roles to preserve his private citizenship while continuing constructive criticism of the war effort. He rejected an offer to join a panel advising the War Production Board and may outline a stance on 1942 elections with like minded Republicans.

Farm Bloc Holds Up Price Bill in Senate House Talks
The joint senate house conference committee struggled after a two hour study of farm amendments to the administration price control bill. Senators Brown and Dagnoher warned of no immediate agreement as wage tied farm price provisions drew opposition. A separate plan to aid 4 million jobless workers received broad support, with Republicans likely to back the measure. The program would appropriate up to 600 million dollars to pay up to 24 weekly for workers entering 26 week training courses to prepare for war production roles. Meanwhile the judiciary committee began considering a war powers omnibus bill and a proposal to exempt certain year men from political prohibitions. A civilian defense program worth 100 million dollars was discussed, alongside a potential women’s volunteer army corps. The Senate did not vote on telegraph seizure authority.
