The new shoe king, who succeeded to that vast empire when his brother Thomas was killed in an airplane accident on his factory grounds last year, declared today that ne has the same social philosophy as his brother. Carries on Paternalistic Plan He is carrying on the same highly paternalistic regime, and the same "think and live Bata" propaganda that has madp the family name the target for attacks by the European labor press for a decade.

No Trouble With Labor No wp have no labor troubles. We pav high wages. The men average 25 .a week, which gives much greater buying power than $25 in America.

Yes. it s true we don t allow the men to smoke or drink and they must save part of their salaries."

CITY EMPLOYES NOT TO BENEFIT BY NRA PLAN Lack of Funds Following Tax Collection Bars Local Government. Thp city government will not and can not become a party to the NRA plan, it was announced today. Most of the city employes have been working on a five-day week schedule for a year. Only persons not participating are those whose salaries have been fixed by law. and most of these have taken a voluntary wage cut. to conform with the rigid economy orders of Mayor Reginald H Sullivan. The city is aiding the recovery program to the best of its ability, but is handicapped because of the 16 pier cent delinquencies in the last tax collections, whichr reduced the general fund $300,000 and the further unanticipated shortage in the gasoline fund, amounting to $200,000. Extensive Street Improvements Despite these shortages, the board of public works has had one of the most extensive road and street improvement seasons in the history of the city. This was accomplished without issuance of bonds of indebtedness and hundreds of piersons were given employment The city still is employing more than 300 men in the street repair and maintenance departments, who are being paid out of gasoline tax funds. Ordinarily, the city begins to lav off many of these men at this time of year, when improvements practically are completed, but this year the men have been organized into three shifts. They work two weeks straight, then are required to lav off a week, permitting all to stay on the pay roll.
Many Get Federal Funds Many city politicians have been conferring with the mayor recently in an effort to impress upion him the great need of federal aid. by borrowing money from the Reconstruction Finance Corporation. This would allow erection of a two-story building at the city hospital, repairs to other buildings there, amounting to half a million dollars, and erection of anew city market house and convention halt, which would cost many thousands more, and permit the employment of thousands of men. Mayor Sullivan, so far. has refused to involve the city in this expenditure. PET FINDS WAY _ HOME Travels 36 Miles After Falling Off Auto of Family. Bj t nitfti Prr** ELMA.
