Now Showing—“NO RESPECT FOR THE AGED”

UNION TO SEEK LABOR PROGRAM Indiana AFL Expected To Ask Enactment Os Full Program Indianapolis, Dec. 14.—(U.R) —The Indiana federation of labor today stood tentatively committed to a 1939 legislative program which includes a state wage and hour bill, a wage collection bill and taing” amendments tor the workmen’s and unemployment compensation systems. More than 300 local unions were represented at the meeting. A 28point program was discussed and labor leaders said all probably would be supported in the legislative session. Labor leaders decided to push for a more liberal old age pension law and will ask the legislature to reduce the age requirement from 65 to 55 years. This would mean old age pensions for several thousand additional persons. | There was some disagreement on many of the 28 proposals but Carl Mullen, federation president, and Adolph Frits, federation secretary, said they expected the proposals to form a policy for labor spokesmen in the legislature or be introduced as bills. Resolutions calling for restoration of all state offices to the direct primary and elimination of the importer system for beer also were discussed. The proposed state wage-hour

bill would be fashioned along the tame lines as the reeontlyenacted federal statute. Under the proosed wage collection measure, the state labor department would be empowered to make wage collocI tlons for workers. Proposed changes In the workmen's compensation system would i set up a state fund for payment of 1 benefits and would Increase the 1 maximum weekly payment for disability from *16.50 to *25. The federation la expected to support a bill to make the unemployment compensation law applicable to persons employing one or more workers. At present the law applied only to firms hiring eight or more. A proposal to prevent sale on the open market of goods produced in private homes was approved. A merit system for state employes also received federation support. Resolutions to permit the sale of alcoholic beverages outside corporate limits and to provide free textbooks in public schools were approved ... _o German Found Guilty Os Espionage Charge Cristobal, C.
