SENATE'S 0. K. OF JOB CENSUS HALTS DISPUTE
Final Action in House Upon Bill Expected; Long Been Controversial Point.
By United Press WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.— Senate approval of a bill ordering a comprehensive census of the nation’s unemployed today made such an enumeration a virtual certainty. The measure was sent to the House where
final action this session generally was expected. Supporters of the plan hoped that the country would aid the second New Deal in dealing with its greatest problem—pilanning a long-range program to reduce the vast number of jobless, estimated variously up to 8,000,000. The measure, which was sponsored in the Senate by Senator Black (D. Ala), chairman of the Education and Labor Committee, received the unqualified endorsement of Harry Hopkins, Works Progress Administrator. If enacted, it would require allocation of approximately $5,000,000 from the 1937 Emergency Relief Appropriation Act. The Black bill calls for completion of the enumeration by April 1, 1938. A six-member committee to be appointed to take charge of the task would decide on methods and information to be sought. It would include the Secretaries of Commerce and Labor, the WPA administrator, the chairman of the Social Security Board, and the Director of the Census. Halted Old Dispute
Anticipation of the measure’s passage before adjournment halted controversy which has raged within the Administration for several years over desirability of such an undertaking. It was not believed that party lines would prevail in the House contest over its enactment. In the Senate, Henry Cabot Lodge Jr. (R. Mass), joined with Black in strongly favoring the undertaking, : Although officials high in the
New Deal's councils—including cabinet members—admit that the | unemployment problem is the principal task of the second Roose- | velt Administratign, there have | been sharp differences of opinion | over the value of a census of the | jobless. No long-range program for deal- | ing with the unemployment prob- | lem yet has been devised by Mr. | Roosevelt's counsellors. WPA of- | ficials are still seeking a large relief appropriation—at least double the present $1,500,000,000 allowed— for a long-term work-aid plan. It could not be determined | whether President Rosevelt had | finally decided to give his tacit | support to the census. On April 27 he told reporters that he strongly | opposed such a project. He said | Mr. Hopkins already had at his | command figures showing not only | the number of jobless but their occupations as well. Black's bill had considerable nonpartisan support in the upper | chamber. Senator Bridges (R, | N. H.) described it as “a good bill.” |
Left Wide Discretion |
The Bill left wide discretion to the President and the committee in charge of the kind of enumeration which would be made. Although both the American Federation of Labor and the C. I. O. Were believed to favor the objectives of the Black Bill, there was discussion over the most advisable method. C. I. O. officials said they would favor a quick count along the methods of the World War selective draft registration. Two types of census have been under discussion: (1) A quick self-registra-tion of persons choosing to go on record as unemployed and (2) a comprehensive census of all workers which would include those employed at normal hours, those working overtime, those on all degrees of part time, and those with no work at all. Experts have estimated that the second method—to be effective— would cost between $13,000,000 and $15,000,000. The President has indicated that he favors the first plan— if any.

CORD INTERESTS ARE REVAMPED
L. B. Manning Selected as President of Revised Setup After Sale.
By United Press NEW YORK, Aug. 9. — The new setup of the Cord Corp. resulting from the sale of E. IL. Cord’s interest in the company to a New York banking group, was announced today. Mr. Cord, H. T. Ames, L. K. Grant and P. P, Willis have resigned from the directorate and the new board will consist of C. Coburn Darling, Gerald E. Donovan, Victor Emanuel, Tom M. Girdler, Henry Lockhart Jr, L. B. Manning and R. S. Pruitt. Mr. Emanuel will become board chairman, Mr. Manning will become president, Mr. Pruitt will be vice president and general counsel, and Mr. Darling will be a vice presi-¢ dent. Rumored Several Weeks
The Cord sale, rumored in Wall Street for several weeks, was con- | summated Saturday. The banking | houses of Emanuel & Co, and Schroeder Rockefeller & Co., Inc. obtained 500,000 shares of Cord Corp. stock from Mr. Cord at $4 a share while L, B. Manning and Associates purchased 158,000 shares from Mr. Cord at the same price. The stock closed on the New York Curb Exchange Saturday at 4%. According to the announcement the
ment, indicating it will not be reoffered to the public. By the transaction Mr. Cord leaves the field with which he has been so prominently identified for several years. His holdings in Cord Corp. had constituted about 30 per cent of the stock outstanding and gave him active control. The company in turn owns substantial interests in the Aviation Corp. Auburn Automobile Co, New York Shipbuilding Co, Checker Cab Manufacturing Co, Lycoming Manufacturing Co., and Columbia Axle Co.
Association Began in 1924
Mr. Cord’s association with the group began in 1924 when after a mercurial success as an automobile salesman in Chicago he decided to get into the production end of the industry, joining the Auburn organization. His success was rapid and he soon became identified as one of the more vigorous of the western industrialists, identifying himself not only with the motor car industry but with the aviation industry. He was a familiar figure to Wall Street. Two years ago he suddenly went abroad with his family, accom= panied by rumors he was seeking haven in England through fear of kidnaping of his children here, and has not been actively prominent in business affairs since. His future business plans have not been disclosed. ; Mr. Emanuel, the new corporation chairman, is a partner in the stock exchange firm of Emanuel & Co. Mr. Manning for years was associated with Mr. Cord. Mr. Donovan is a vice president of Schroder Rockefeller & Co., Inc. Mr. Darling is a partner in the firm of Miller & George of Providence and a director of Aviation @orp. Mr. Girdler is chairman of the Republic Steel Corp. and Mr. Pruitt has been gen-
