HUTSON KGAIN
PREDICTS END ‘OF LABOR WAR
Tells ‘Barbers Conference Is Replacing Strike and Lockout.
Times Special ’ ION, Dec. 7.—Labor organiions generally are consolidating their gains, disciplining their ranks and establishing sane leadership, State Labor Commissioner Thomas Hutson had declared today.
g here last night at a|
Speakin state meeting of the Journeymen Barbers’ International Union, Mr, Hutson predicted that a truce would be signed by American Federation of Labor and Committee for Industrial Organization “within a very short time.”
On the subject of employer-em- |
ployee relationship, Mr. Hutson declared: :
“The conference gradually is re-|
placing the strike and lockout. Peaceful mediation is the most profitable method of operation for both workers and employers. : * Cites Results “Since April 1, when the State Labor Division was established, this
department has - satisfactorily ad-
justed 404 Indiana labor disputes involving 105,425 workers. “Labor relations, as we try to practice them, involve the application of common sense and understanding to the relation ot ‘employer and worker.” The meeting was one of a number held in various parts of the country last night to celebrate the golden jubilee of the founding in Buffalo, N.Y. in 1887, of the barbers’ union.
DELNQUENCES FEW ‘IN JOB INSURANCE
Only 170 Employers in State : Pay Late.
Indiana’s employers are cooperating with the Unemployment Compensation Division, Clarence A. Jackson, division director, an=-
_ nounced today, with only two per
cent of firms subject to the law failing to make monthly returns. «Of the 8760 active employers’ accounts in the state,” Mr. Jackson asserted, “only 170 Indiana and 17 out-of-state firms have been charged with delinquencies.” Mr. Jackson said the number of delinquencies would be cut down considerably when the field service staff receives notices to enforce collections. : “Usually the staff manages to collect accounts without any difficulty.” he said. Penalties under the state law permit a heavy interest charge when proper returns are not made within the deadline.. Failing to receive reports, the division examiners may seize books and accounts’ of such firms through court action, ny

Boy, 14, Is Back Home After
Fleeing as
‘Slayer’ of Sister
PASADENA, Cal, Dec. 7 (U. P.)&—One of the happiest boys in the world today was Forest McMurray, who. thinks he knows:the terrors of a hunted killer at the age of 14, and also the rewards of doing the right thing. He shot his sister accidentally; thought he'd killed her; fled 60 miles to escape and returned to find her nearly well.
Forest was playing with a small® : Lrun- away, so I started back,” hej

Then he ran to a neighbor’s and told them to call an ambulance. He didn’t say what happened but he said: “It’s a matter of life and death.” Then he kept on going, thinking he was a killer. f
Begged- His Breakfast
He ran several blocks until his breath gave out, then he dog-trot-ted to the edge of town. On through the night he went, walking and hitch-hiking. Near dawn he reached
San Bernardino, 60 miles to the|
east. He slept fitfully for a while in a parked automobile. He begged his breakfast the next morning. “Then I decided it was foolish to

Children Terrified
One line had passed out the door and the others were starting to follow. “I was doing my best to get them all out,-but there wasn’t time,” the teacher said. “Many of ‘them were still at their desks when the whole ceiling started to fall. I shouted for the children to get under their desks. “Instead, most of them just stood looking terrified. They were too
frightened to move. It all happened
too quickly for any of us to think
there was blood and plaster all over the floor.” Teachers and firemen carried the children from: the wreckage. Doris
was still at her desk, covered with |
plaster, ‘her head pierced by a jagged piece of wire. She was given a blood transfusion last night.
