10,000 IN COUNTY SHARE IN SIOO,OOO WEEKLY PAY ROLL ON WAGE RELIEF PROJECTS 200 Tasks Occupy Workers in Rehabilitation Efforts Under Governor’s Commission; 21 Per Cent Kept Busy Packing Meat. BY ARCH STEINLL Time* Staff Writer "Can you cash this?” The neighborhood grocer scratched his head at the question and at the proffered check. Eyes narrowed. Lips formed a “No,” only to l>e erased with a smile when the grocer Saw that the check was one of 10,000 cashed weekly by men in Marion county on wage relief. The grocer’s, “Sure,” as a reply was quickened with the knowledge that his customer no longer was on grocery order relief and that he was one of the men who weekly get a portion of the SIOO,OOO pay roll that pours eventually into the tills of his and other stores. Proudly, loudly, the customer explained, “I’m on federal work relief.” The explanation was not necessary if the grocer knew that highway and street improvements, levee projects to

control floods, manufacturing of mattresses for relief homes, slaughtering of meat, was carried on by a $400,000 monthly pay roll of the Governor’s Unemployment Relief Commission to rehabilitate the men on relief and give them worthwhile work for the support of their families. In an office on the fourth floor of the City Hall the work relief projects are directed in the county ’oy J. C. Crowley, director. Two hundred projects are under his control. Administration costs never have exceeded 1 per cent of the pay roll. Some Projects Over-Manned Relief manufactfiring plants such as the Indianapolis Abattoir Company, packing relief meat, and the Riverside Packing Company, form 21 per cent of the pay roll, while 72 per cent of the relief work is on Public Work projects, leaving 3 per cent for educational work. Watch the work relief men on a public works project. It will be found that the projects in some cases are over-manned. On the White River levee construction job an automatic scoop shovel would do the work that it takes thirty men to do on one certain section of the flood control job. But the men work with as much spirit, in main, as they did when handling the same pick and shovel in the years before that automatic steam shovel threw them out of a job.

labor or the feel of the meat-knife, carve anemic cattle sides for every ounce of flesh. They loaf no more than the average packing plant or factory employe. What they lack' in agility of the hands they make up to a degree learn. with the spirit and willingness to Leave on Learning Trade “You know I can’t keep my cat-tle-knockers,” complains Charles A. Dwyer, the project director. He was general manager of the plant when it was operated by private industry. “I teach them.the trade and then they leave me. They go off relief and I’ve a sneaking notion that other packing plants have hirefi them,” Mr. Dwyer says. Humility and the desire to do anything just as long as it is work demonstrated in various sections of the plant where the work is disagreeable. “On some of those jobs we couldn’t hire any one but mutes who could not be employed in other lines of labor when this plant was operated privately,” Mr. Dwyer explains. 500 Cattle Killed Weekly “Will they take a job again if private’industry offers it? Just offer them one if you want to stampede the place like those cattle stampede now and then down in the pens,” he added. Under private - ownership the packing plant’s kill never topped 400 head a day, but under relief aid the kill is kept steadily at the 500-mark. The drought cattle shipped to Indianapolis would shame a stock buyer for a commission company. They are scrawny beeves with ribs predominating and bones protruding. The weight in bones of the beeves is a blessing in paying the administration costs of the project. The bones, tallow and offal for fertilizer average SSOOO to S6OOO weekly and more than amply foots the pay roll of the 103 non-relief employes and the Government lease on the plant and its equipment.

“Constitutionality of New Deal Legislation,” will be discussed by Hugh Evander Willis, Indiana University.

and other relief factories are used exclusively for relief purposes and does not compete frith private industry. Mr. Crowley, works director, and the Indiana division of the National Re-Employment Service, cooperate fully in an effort to propel relief labor into private industry. The works director says that in the last few’ months many wage relief laborers have been dropping from the rolls and are being absorbed by private firms. Wor’. Sought by 370,000 The National Re-employment Service office is closely-knit with the Governor’s Unemployment Relief Commission in aiding relief labor to find a place in private industry. In one’s year operation in the state the bureau, which is operated almost as one w’ith the Indiana Reemployment Service, has received 370.000 work applications from unemployed on relief and those not receiving relief. Placements totaling 196,000 in temporary and permanent work have been made. It is estimated that 20,000 of the placements have been in private industry. Civil Works Administration jobs accounted for 74 per cent cf the men hired. Twenty-five thousand active job applications are on file in Indianapolis. Jobs Found for Many i The bureau estimates that about 3000 persons are being placed j monthly in private industry with approximately one-half that number hired monthly for Public Works projects. Private industry hires the jobless at an average weekly wage of S2O with skilled workers receiving approximately $35 and unskilled labor sls. The average wage for women in industry is $8 and this low wage is because of the large number of women receiving domestic employment at a wage average of $4.50 a week. Relief applicants and those on w’ork projects are not required by the employment service to register for jobs upon going on relief. Permanent Jobs Sought It is the opinion of the officials of the employment service thta this requirement should be made of every relief applicant in order that he w’ould be impressed with the fact the jobs in private industry are available and give him the added incentive to get that job instead of remaining on direct relief orders or wage relief. J. B. Haight, statistician for the employment burean, says it has been reported that a number of releif laborers have refused jobs offered them by private industry because they thought they would be better off on relief rolls. Fear of only temporary work and idustry’s refusal to insure the permanency of the job offered has caused this refusal in many cases, he said. Work relief W’age scales for common labor in the state varies in the counties from a top of 50 cents to a low of 30 cents an hour. The hourly range, depending on county conditions, graphically is demonstrated in that three counties, Hendricks. Marion and Hancock, lie boundary line to boundary line and y;t pay, respectively, 30, 50 and 40 j cents-an-hour wage scales. Hendricks and Hancock counties are essentially rural and have the low’er wage scale while Marion county w’ith the industrial capital city, Indianapolis, in its midst, pays the top wage at the best of city labor unions. Rural Bureau Added Seventy counties in the state pay a 40-cent hourly wage, five a 50-cent wage, and seventen a 30-to-35-cent scale. • • The rural rehabilitation bureau of the state relief commission is the baby of the relief and educational bureaus. Heided by Dr. E. H. Shideler, Franklin College, it has serviced but five cases in the industrial county of Marion and one of those cases was to set a man up in the guinea pig business. The sale of the guinea pigs to experimental laboratories took the man off the relief rolls. In the state the bureau is rehabilitating 400 farmers at an average cost of SSO a case. Abandoning of farms and the crowding into villages of destitute farmers has prevented the bureau from interesting itself in moving unemployed of the cities to small land plots. The state’s rural population is: 1.500.000 and of that number approximately 100.000 are on relief. One family in every six in villages is on relief, which equals the average in the industrial cities of the state, while in towns and the open country the average is one in every 18 or 20 families. The bureau's sendee in the aid of purchasing farm equipment and stock has heen widened into the resettlement of stranded communities and efforts to rehabilitate small financial life into cross-road towns and villages.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

LABOR DISPUTES TRUCE DOOMED, OFFICIALS FEAR Conflicts Expected Soon in Steel, Rubber, Other Industries. By Bcripps'-H award Srwspaper Alliance WASHINGTON, Dec. 7.—Apprehension is growing today that the President’s labor disputes truce is riding for a fall. The truce, proposed by Mr. Roosevelt, Sept. 30, in a fireside talk to the Nation, has been successful so far. Only one important case gives immediate concern—the Los Angeles carmen’s lockout, which has reached the tear gas stage. But conflicts in the steel, automobile, rubber and numerous lesser industries are considered irrepressible by many here. Temporary measures have simply staved off the show’down, some labor leaders and officials think. The steel industry has just reiterated its opposition to any col-lective-bargaining scheme based on Section 7A as interpreted in the Houde decision. Instead of recognizing a majority union as exclusive bargainer for all employes in a unit, the industry proposes to negotiate separately with any and all employes’ organizations. Elections Expected The Steel Labor Relations Board is expected soon to gi v ' the signal for a court battle by c. Jering elections among employes of the Duquesne and McDonald plants of the Carnegie Steel Cos. Whether labor will wait on the slow processes of law is a moot question. A similar situation exists in the rubber industry, centered at Akron, Ohio. The National Labor Relations Board ordered workers’ elections for tomorrow in the Firestone and Goodrich plants at Akron, but both companies petitioned a Federal Court to set aside the order. The Labor Board agreed to drop its election plans pending the court test. “We can not believe,” said President J. D. Tew., of Goodrich, “that either the Constitution or the law will require us to deal with any one single group of employes to the exclusion of any individual or any other group.” Auto Industry Opposed The automobile industry takes the same position. In this instance, however, so-called proportional representation for all labor unions is in force not in defiance of the law but by a Roosevelt-sponsored settlement to which both management and labor agreed last March. The American Federation of Labor is determined to scrap this settlement, but is awaiting the outcome of an NRA investigation of labor conditions in the industry. In the Textile Union, which conducted the year’s biggest strike, union leaders say another walkout may be necessary to get any concessions. The Federal Trade Commission and Labor Department are completing reports on textile wages and company finances, which may be the basis for hearings on the union’s demand for a shorter week with, no pay cut. Yesterday Newspaper Guild representatives walked out of a code hearing, accusing NRA of partisan interference for employers in forcing reopening of a Labor Board decision against a publisher. In many another field the steady proselyting by the A. F. of L. presages an eventual fight. A. F. of L. Oragnizing Filling station operators, cleaners and dyers, and workers in the chemical, leather, laundry, cement, radio and typewriter industries are getting special attention. National councils have been set up in these industries by the A. F. of L. The fact that the Aluminum Workers Council obtained recognition by a short-lived strike, in preference to awaiting the laborious proceedings of the board and courts, has impressed many labor executives. It is one of the big jobs of Chairman Frrmcis Biddle of the National Labor Relations Board—and of President Roosevelt—to convince labor and management that orderly processes can produce results without undue delay. The controversy is brewing in Congress as well as in the industrial centers and the courts. There will be a determined eflort to write the majority-rule principle into whatever legislation is drafted to replace Section 7A. CITY HALL ARRANGES PARTY FOR CHILDREN Small Gifts to Be Given Youngsters by Municipal Santa. All Indianapolis children who care to receive small gifts from a sort of collective municipal Santa Claus can attend before noon Dec. 24 the customary party at City Hall given by municipal officials and employes. Albert Losche, City Purchasing Agent, has charge of arrangement for the party. A large Christmas tree will be erected in the lobby of the building and candy, fruit and small gifts will be distributed to children who attend. Employes and officials will distribute clothing for children who were carefully selected by nurses of the Public Health Department. Officer Acquitted in Slaying By United Press NORRISTOWN, Pa.. Dec. 7. Wilbur Parker, deputy sheriff charged with murder in connection with the slaying of a bystander during the textile strike at Bridgeport, was acquitted by a jury today.

EXPERT LAUDS SAARJICCDRD French-German Agreement Is Boost for League, Lecturer Says. The Franco-German accord on the Saar Plebiscite to be held Jan. 13 has set a precedent which brings new life to the League of Nations and dims the fear of war in Europe, according to Sir Herbert Ames, Canadian diplomat. Sir Herbert arrived in Indianapolis today to make the second address of the World Travel Club’s winter forum at 8:15 tonight in the American Central Life Insurance Company auditorium. He will talk on “The Saar Basin Plebiscite and What It Means Afterward,” a topic which he has had to revise considerably since France and Germany agreed to terms under which Saar mines will revert to Germany in event she wins the plebiscite. “The accord was a source of great encouragement to the League at Geneva,” said Sir Herbert, “for it set a precedent whereby similar situations where two nations are at words point over an area of mixed population may be settled peaceably and satisfactorily without recourse to arms. “The League has shown that it can prevent strife and yet settle complicated international questions,” said Sir Herbert. “If it can settle the Hungarian-Yugoslavian trouble it will be settling a situation which, in 1914 under the reverse circumstances, started the World War.”

ROPER PREDICTS WINTER, SPRING BUSINESS GAINS Commerce Department Report Shows October Upturn, First in 6 Months. Bp ( nift and Press WASHINGTON. Dec. 7—Gradual improvement in business through the winter and spring months was predicted by Daniel C. Roper. Secretary of Commerce, today as his department reported the first upturn in six months. The Commerce Department's analysis of October business confirmed the rec<*nt report of the Federal Reserve Board. ‘ Business.” the department said, “improved during October, and a continuation of the slow forward movement is indicated by the available weekly data for November. Industrial production was moderately higher in October; employment and pay rolls recovered from the setback of September; retail sales reports were favorable and new construction work expanded. “Industrial production increased during October by more than the usual seasonal amount, mainly by reason of the sharp increase in output in the textile industry.
