GREEN WARNS OF MENAGE IN JOB SITUATION Outbreaks Are Feared If Immediate Relief Is Not Given. ■By L,. <f Prrra WASHINGTON, July 22.—Strikes and discontent evident in many quarters as an outgrowth of unemployment, hold a threat of greater danger unless courageous measures of relief are adopted, William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, declared today. In an interview with the United Press, Green repeated his demand that President Hoover call a conference to formulate a national

e c o nomic program. Only by such means can much suffering and probable disorders be prevented next winter, he believes. “Right now the working people are scared to death,” Green said. “They get a dollar and hold on to it.” This psychological situation will continue, he said, until security is as-

sured for the worker. The head of American organized labor drew a dark picture of present economic conditions and spoke out strongly as to the obligations in this crisis of Mr. Hoover and industrial leaders. Held Hoover's Duty "Ive repeatedly recommended that P esident Hoover call a conference In an effort to release the buying power of those at work in order to relieve unemployment,” Green said. ‘‘Nobody else but the President could call it. I have contended that it is the obligation of the management of industry to assure these now employed of work security and to spread out work and absorb those now- unemployed. “There should be, first, a declaration that all who now are employed should be guaranteed that they will be secure in their jobs, that no one should be discharged except for inefficiency, that if it is necessary to carry out this pledge, industry should adjust its working time so that all will share equitably in work. Asks Wages Kept Up “In the second place, the conference ought to pledge industry to reduce the number of w T ork days per week and the number of work hours per day so that those now unemployed could be given work at the earliest possible date. “Tlie conference, in the third place, should go on record that wages be maintained and that no reductions take place. “These pledges would remove fear and release buying power.” Asked whether he advocated direct appropriations by the federal government for relief, Green replied: “I don’t think there will be any choice in the matter this winter. ■Weil have to call in all agencies to relieve distress.”

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

BROUN‘SHOOTS THE WORKS'; HE GOESJVER BIG New York Critics Hail Revue as Great Bit of Entertainment. NEW YORK, July 22.—Heywood Broun, Scripps-Howard columnist, Socialist candidate for congress, advocate of birth control and almost-a-crusader, shot the works Tuesday night as manager, producer participant in “Shoot -the Works,” an unconventional Broadway revue, that critics agreed today “threw cocked dice,” and can’t fail. Broun, whipped as a Socialist, appeared a winner as “a co-operative,’ the Daily News critic indicated, referring to the production of the revue on a co-operative basis by Broun and Milton Raison to relieve the unemployment situation among stage folk of Broadway. “Shoot the works,” the Times said, “is a swell show—if you happen to like Mr. Broun. Fortunately, a lot of people do.” “Probably,” the Herald-Tribune pointed out, “No midsummer opening ever drafted into New York orchestra stalls an audience more willing and more anxious to be pleased.” It ranks “easily among the most entertaining revues shown in New York in a long time,” the American said. Among those who contributed j their bit to its success are Dorothy ; Parker, Nunnally Johnson, Peter ; Arno, Irving Berlin, Michael Sleary, ; Philip Charig, Jay Gorney, Vernon ; Duke, Max and Nathaniel Lief. If, as it appears, Broun wins in I “Shoot the Works,” other participants also win for it’s co-operative.
