"But the trouble is that our valnse and ceredits are destroyed.

"Machines are to blame for much of the unemployment." Fred- 1 erick said. “We have built a Frankenstein monster which has r'sen up to destroy us." Murden explained that the highway department is still trying to get some Federal aid and is go- , ing ahead with much work on loads and bridges which will em-

ploy hand labor. ’We will demand that all work be done at a decent wage and that includes construction of the Evansville bridge," Murden declared. This supported the Governor’s stand at the general conference when he told the more than 200' pn sent, most of whom were industrialists, that now was no time to make wage cuts. Adolph Fritz, secretary of the, Indiana Federation of Labor, urg-1 d at the council meeting that jobs] and not charity be the gcal of the' organization, an | this viewpoint was adopted. "My people want jobs” Fritz said' "Th re is no labor leader more! conservative than I am. but unless ' men get work trouble will be inevitable."

He announced that instill had already planned for | s veral millions to be spent in i track and line construction in Indiana this winter, to keep labor' empkypd. The entire spring and summer program of 1931 is to be launched now, Feustel explained.
