LABOR CHIEFS WILL OUTLINE UNION PROGRAM Principal Crusades Will Be Merged in Conference at Capital. By Scripp*-Hoicard Xeurepaper Alliance WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.—Labor moved today to co-ordinate its principal crusades for union recognition and collective bargaining rights. Officials of five national unions were called to an early January conference in Washington to form an “offensive and defensive”' alliance. The call was sent by Frances J. Gorman, leader of the recent national textile strike, to officials of steel, textile, oil, auto and tobacco unions. “Employers in all these fields are united in the same sort of tactics to prevent realization by labor of its right to organize and bargain collectively,” Mr. Gorman said. “Many employers in the first four industries have interlocking financial interests. The tobacco interests are generally separate, but they are using the same tactics.” Action Is Awaited Mr. Gorman would not discuss the possibility of the conference considering a general strike in the five industries. Any action will depend on developments in the individual fields, in Congress and before national labor boards, he explained. “I have just returned from a tomthrough New England,” he added significantly, “and I find that the workers are more militant and are watching developments in Washington more closely than at the time the 500,000 textile operators walked out.” Labor's plan for concerted action became known as the United States Chamber of Commerce announced its position on revision of the National Industrial Recovery Act following a referendum among member organizations. Under the chamber's labor program: “The labor clauses (of NIRA) would be completely revised. “Employes would be protected from any and every source. “The majority rule of the National Labor Relations Eoard would be abrogated and minority groups of individual employes allowed to act regarding conditions of employment.” Labor Rejects Offers In the steel industry, labor consistently has rejected offers of recognition on other than the majority rule basis. Textile strike leaders are known to be impatient with slowness in final settlement of discrimination cases which followed their nationwide strike. Likewise, they are eager for wage and hour hearings, provided in the Winant board report, which are to be held as soon as the Federal Trade Commission and Labor Department complete studies of the textile mills, financial condition and of real wages in the industry. Auto workers in the Detroit district of the Automobile Workers Council have authorized President William Green of the American Federation of Labor to notify President Roosevelt of their withdrawal from his auto strike settlement of last spring. Dissatisfaction with the operation of the Automobile Labor Board and with its chairman, Leo Wolman, has been expressed repeatedly. The exact date of the Washington ( labor meeting was to be set later. EXHIBITION HOUSE COST S3OOO, OFFICIALS SAY United States Bureau Chief to Speak; 1000 E>.;*ected. Cost of replacement of “Exhibition House,” which s.mds in front of the Federal Build ng is 3000, it was announced today by a committee of experts from the Construction League of Indianapolis. To date, 13,000 persons have inspected the house. The house was remodeled to assimilate the interest of property owners of Indianapolis in repairing and modernizing their homes, and the interest it has created has been far greater than was expected by the most optimistic of Chamber of Commerce and Construction League officials, it was said. The house will be kept open until April 15, by which time it is expected that at least 75,000 will have passed through it. STATE WILL SPONSOR 7 RELIEF NURSERIES •New Emergency Centers to Aid FERA Workers. Seven new emergency nursery chools for children of Emergency telief Administration workers will De opened in Indiana Jan. 7, Wayne Coy, director of the Governor’s Commission on Unemployment Relief, announced today.

$1,000,000 IS DAMAGE TOLL IN TOLEDO FIRE

Damage of nearly a million dollars was caused by the fire that destroyed the Lucas County Armory in Toledo, 0.. shown above as flames raged through the structure, and endangered neighboring buildings. The blaze, which apparently had started during a wrestling match at night, burst forth violently early in the morning. Efforts of fire fighters to stem it were futile, as strong winds fanned the conflagration. Heavy loss was due largely to destruction of government supplies stored in the building.

CONGRESS WILL ‘SPARE’ ARMY, NAVYBUDGETS Treaty Strength for Fighting Forces Is Goal of Administration. Editor’s Note—This is the tenth of a series on the Congressional outlook. BY LYLE C. WILSON United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON. Dec. 29.—The Army and Navy budgets are expected this year to escape the Administration's economy program. Hundreds of thousands of dollars are being trimmed from expense estimates for other departments of government. But President Roosevelt evidently intends to reorganize the Army and build the Navy to treaty strength with as little delay as possible. So far in this calendar year the Army and Navy have spent in excess of $508,000,000. In addition to these “ordinary expenditures,” PWA since September, 1933, has allocated approximately $370,000,000 to the military services. The fund is drawn upon as it is needed for ship construction, Army mechanization and improvement of military posts. Army Posts Improved The Navy obtained $277,339,000 from PWA. of which $238,000,000 was earmarked for ship construction. The Army’s share of PWA funds was $92,735,000, most of which is being used lor improvement of Army posts. The Naval Bureau of Aeronautics and the Army Air Corps each received allotments of $7,500,000. Plans to take the profits out of war and otherwise bolster world peace are not expected to diminish national defense exp. iditures next year. The PWA allocation was for a three-year building program. Additional funds will be required to lift the Navy to the strength permitted by the London Naval Treaty. Although Japan is scheduled before New Year’s to denounce that limitations agreement, the fighting ship levels prescribed remain for the time being the objective toward which the Navy is building. Shortage Remains The Navy still will be short of treaty strength by 78 ships as fol low; 75 submarines and destroyers; one aircraft carrier; two light cruisers. “It is to be hoped,” Navy Secretary Swanson said in his annual report, “that Congress will continue to appropriate the necessary funds from year to year for the replacement of these vessels.” War Secretary George H. Dern also recommended military expansion in his annual report. He urged

HOUSE PROBERS i TO RECOMMEND MONEYJHANGES Investigating Boards Will Seek Far-Reaching Legislation. By United Pres WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.—House investigating committees prepared recommendations today for farreaching legislation, including an oil control program and measures to gag or deport foreign propagandists. The eight inquiries, authorized by the last House, probably will result in remedial legislation of significant economic and national defense character. The inquiries have cost $75,000 so far. While reports must be submitted before the 74th Congress “dies,” they will largely be the basis for legislation at the forthcoming session. The committees studied American tin resources, the efficiency of War Department purchase methods, unAmerican propaganda activities Federal control over the petroleum industry, Postoffice Department expenditures, conservation of wild animal life, the veterans’ guardianship “racket,” and the bondholders protective “racket.” Indications were that in general the recommendations would include: 1. House Foreign Affairs Committee 'tin inquiry): Legislation safeguarding for munitions purposes American tin resources, and provisions for storing tin reserves. 2. House Interstate Commerce Committee (oil inquiry): A permanent oil control program designed to stabilize the industry, conserve natural resources and eradicate “hot oil.” 3. House Military Affairs Committee (War Department inquiry): Changes in War Department procurement methods to center contract responsibility so that. graft and inefficiency will be impossible. 4. House Special Un-Am\rican Activity Investigating Comrnjttee: Legislation making it a felony Jto advocate overthrow of the Government by force, and providing for quick deportatoin of alien agitators. Legislation giving the Justice Department funds to investigate Nazi, Communist and Fascist propaganda groups may be asked. 5. Postofflce Committee (expenditures inquiry): Changes in depanmental leasing methods of postcffices, and contract changes on truck and other purchases to broaden competition. 6. Veterans’ Affairs Sub-Commit-tee (guardianship inquiry): Tightening up of laws affecting estates of incompetent veterans so that unscrupulous lawye.s can not misuse veterans’ funds.
