WASHINGTON TO STUDY SWOPE'S INDUSTRY PLAN Proposals for Stabilizing Business Will Be Heard by Congress Group. By United Press WASHINGTON, Sept. 18. A congressional committee early next month will hear the plan of Gerard P. Swope to stabilize business. Publication of the proposals of the General Electric president brought mixed response, part of it indicating that the farm representation in congress would continue its opposition to large combinations in industry. Swope will present his plan to the Hebert-Wagner unemployment insurance committee meeting here about Oct. 1. The committee also will hear Silas Strawn, president of the United States Chamber of Commerce and Professor William Z. Ripley of Harvard, on their proposals for dealing with industrial depressions. Chairman Simeon T. Fess of the Republican national committee said Swope’s plan was “an interesting suggestion.” Representative Joseph Byrns of Tennessee, ranking Democrat on the appropriations committee, said it was “revolutionary” and expressed the opinion the government ought to keep out of business. Senator Smith W. Brookhart (Rep., la.) said the plan was a recognition by Swope of “the failure of capitalism in handling our economic system.” Labor Head Hits Plan BY MARSHALL McNEIL Times Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Sept. 18.—The business stabilization plan of Gerard Swope was attacked today as an effort to “vaccinate the business of this country against industrial democracy which he sees coming” by Arthur C. Wharton, president of the International Association of Machinists and a vice-president of the American Federation of Labor. Wharton’s views are carried in the current issue of labor, weekly newspaper of the railroad brotherhoods and unions. “His plan,” labor quotes Wharton as saying, “claims to provide for the free organization of employers in an industry, but it holds down the employes to what is merely a ‘company union.’ In other words, the boss picks the men who sit on both sides of the table. “Organized labor never will consent to any scheme which ties the hands of workers and leaves management free. Whether there is ever a “constitution of industry’ or not, American workers will fight for the right of free, unhindered organization to protect themselves by collective bargaining.” FISHERMEN PULLED 40 MILES BY 618-POUNDER Trio Shows Swordfish conquered Only After 23-Hour Battle. lift United Press REDONDO BEACH, Cal., Sept, j 18.—Three fishermen who went to ! sea in a boat, then went forty miles j farther to sea dragged by a giant swordfish they hooked, showed their catch today to prove the tallest fish story yet.
