After declaring that “we will not sign anything,” Sheet & Tube officials announced they would not attempt to operate its East Chicago mill until “adequate protection” is given workers. They did not renew their request for National Guards- | men, however. | It is the largest mill in the Mid- | west remaining cempletely.idle because of the strike, Asked if he had received a signed statement of the Youngstown labor policy, Governor Townsend declined comment, In a prepared statement issued vesterday after more than four hours in conference with Sheet & Tube executives, the Governor said one point had balked settlement. The question of a method for | settling disputes under a temporary agreement has snagged the negotiations, he said. He indicated the company favored | settlements to be made in in-| dividual cases The company wants | final authority in differences, and | is refusing plans submitted by the | Governor, he said. As an alternative plan to the pro- | gram evolved with the Inland mill, | Governor Townsend suggested a | committee of three including one | named by the mill, one by the employees and a third to be named by the two. This plan also was refused After the conference ended Van A. Bittner, midwest C. I. O. director, said that picket lines at the East Chicago plant would be strength- | ened. “Neither the Youngstown Sheet & Tube nor any other steel company big enough to flaunt the Governments of Indana and the United States,” Mr. Bittner said when informed that Youngstown officials | had refused agreement on the] Governor's proposal.

Well, it is filled with school paper over which hundreds of Indianapolis school boys and girls will ponder next fall. The supply room at the School Board offices is being visited every day by large paper trucks which rapidly are filling the shelves with supplies. John W. Hubbard is in charge.

‘Hughes Is Playing Politics, Gutfey Says in Court Debate

Auto Workers Cancel March on Ford

By United Press

The United Automobile Workers of America at Detroit today cancelled a scheduled march on the Ford River Rouge plant to distribute union literature when an unsigned telegram warned that a riot would occur with their arrival. The National Labor Relations Board today denied the Ford Brotherhood of America, Inc. the right to intervene in the hearings against the Ford Motor €o. on

charges of violating the Wagner La- |

bor Relations Act.

John T. Lindsay, presiding at the hearing, turned down the petition of | Ford | workers which had sought not only | the right to participate in the hear- |

COUNTY WELFARE BUDGET APPROVED

Proposed Expenditures Top Total for This Year.

(Continued from Page One)

$1,278,000, as compared to $1,029,C00 this year. In fixing Mr. Neal's salary at $4000 annually, the county board ignored instructions of the State Welfare Board to place the director's salary within the $4500 to $5000 price range. State Welfare Director Thurman Gottschalk said the state board would allow the county board to handle this Neal salary question without interference.

Budget Not Filed With State The State Board, Mr. Gottschalk

said, has not received the County | Welfare budget, and when it is re- | ceived it is to be checked by the State organization's finance depart- | He did not expect the State |

ment. Board at its meeting next Wednesday to approve the County Board's

budget. Final action is to be delayed to allow further study, he said. This budget also must be approved by the County Council which will incorporate it into the general county budget and then is to be reviewed by the County Tax Adjustment Board and probably by the State Tax Board. The budget figures, as originally announced by County Board President Sidney Miller, were in error, it was disclosed today. A request to increase the salary of I. C. Spencer, county welfare office manager, from $2800 to $3500, also was turned down by the county board. The 1938 budget included an item of $1200 for legal services. Mr. Miller said John Linder, County attorney, would not be retained for the board as members “preferred to employ an attorney of its own choice.” Mr. Linder’s salary was increased from $3600 to $4800 this year to handle welfare litigation. The Coun=ty attorney recently held the State Welfare Act unconstitutional but the Board ignored his ruling in approving Mr. Neal’s salary. The director’'s pay was disputed on the ground that the law under which he was appointed by the State Board to succeed Joel A. Baker was invalid. A suit to test constitutionality of the law, brought in Superior Court 2 by County Auditor Charles Grossart, was dismissed last week by Judge Joseph Williams.

“The assistant attorney general, Joseph Keenan, made a speech in Tulsa,” Senator Wheeler (D. Mont.), anti-Roosevelt leader, told the Senate. “Mr. Keenan told his Tulsa audience that ‘what we want is six judges whom we can trust.” Seldom has the judiciary been under such fire as in the court debate which began yesterday and which probably will continue for weeks. Senate Majority Leader Robinson (D. Ark.), blamed many of the current economic difficuities of this country to policies imposed upon the nation by court decisions which went beyond the justices’ powers of mere interpretation. Senator Hatch (D. N. MJ), uttered the charge of usurpation.
