HAMILTON SAYS 6. 0. P. BROUGHT LABOR BENEFITS
Party Head Resents Claims By Democrats ‘to Which They’re Not Entitled.’
GARY, Ind, Feb. 27 (U. P).— John Hamilton, Republican National Committee,
last night lauded the achievements of his party in the fields of labor and social legislation and expressed resentment that the Democrats “smugly seek- to take credit to which they are not entitled” for the passage of such laws. Speaking before a G. O. P. rally sponsored by Republicans of the First District, Mr. Hamilton declared that “The Republican Party, throughout its entire history, has been the real friend of labor. It was organized originally to end the most oppressive of labor abuses— slavery.”
He asserted that the G. O. P.| *
since that time has regarded help for the working man as vitally.
Courts Available Before NLRA
Courts were available for the settlement of labor disputes and workers were allowed to bargain collectively and improve their status “long before the passag
Labor Relations 2 contended. Mr. Hamilton held that “when the fortunes of labor are too intimately tied to government \ action, the power of government unde circumstances, may be used “to hamstring as well as to liberate the workers.” Mr. Hamilton traced labor legislation through history and attributed the impetus, if not the passage, of the laws to the Republican Party. Cites Child Labor Laws
“Between 1915 and 1932 nineteen states adopted old-age pension laws,” he said. “At the time of the enactment of these laws, Republicans controlled both houses of the legislatures of 14 states.” Mr. Hamilton's final claim to constructive Republican labor legislation was the child labor amendment, which, he said, was introduced by G. O. P. legislators and passed by a G. O. P. Congress. State Republican Chairman Arch N. Bobbitt, in a brief address, predicted that factionalism in the Republican Party will vanish after the primary election and state convention. “The type of men who have announced as candidates for Governor is demonstrated by the kind of campaign they are making for the nomination,” he said. “Not one in the group in dealing in personalities— none of them has said anything about the others which might be used by the New Dealers in the campaign this fall.”

Greencastle residents and DePauw University students are deeply interested in the music appreciation program for Indiana. In a letter to William H. Ball, Indiana chairman of the National Committee for Music ‘Appreciation, Dr. Clye E. Wilderman, DePauw president, said: “I believe that this movement is a very significant and hopeful one and that it should produce real results in raising the cultural level of Indiana. [Every one appreciates the share which you are having in bringing this thing to pass. “All believers in the value of musical education appreciate the fact that you have made yourself such a conspicuous and devoted patron of music in Indiana.” Many DePauw students already have obtained their albums of Schubert's “Unfinished” Symphony No. 8 in B Minor and Beethoven's “Pastoral” Symphony No. 5 in C Minor—the first two sets to be released.

EMMERT RAPS LIQUOR SYSTEM
Urges State-Owned Stores For More Revenue to Cut Gross Tax.
Judge James A. Emmert, Shelbyville, candidate for the G. O. P. gubernatorial nomination,
elimination of the State liquor control system as a “way for reduction of 25 per cent in the gross income taxes,” in an address before the Irvington Republican Club last night. “The gross income tax has worked a hardship on retailers because it amounts to la turnover tax,” he said. “It has discouraged a rapid turn-. over with a small margin of profit. Everyone realizes our retailers are entitled to relief from this crushing burden.” Describing the State’s administration of liquor sales as the “McHale system of beer control,” Judge Emmert reiterated his stand or state-owned liquor stores. He referred to Frank M. McHale, manager of the McNutt-for-President campaign. “Indiana should have a scientific system of liquor control, including state-owned package liquor stores and thus obtain at least $3,000,000 a year additional revenues,” he said. ‘We should use this additional revenue to reduce the gross income tax.”

ON HATCH BILL
(Minton. Indicates He Will
Carry Opposition to Senate Floor.
By CHARLES T. LUCEY * Times Special Writer
WASHINGTON, Feb. 27. — The drive of Senator Carl Hatch (D. N. M.) to extend .to some employees of
state governments the same .political ban placed on Federal job-
‘holders in his 1939 “clean politics”
law will meet stiff opposition in the Senate. Last year the Hatch act passed
{the Senate with little difficulty. A
few Senators took pot-shots at it behind the scenes but showed little desire to oppose openly a measure providing, among other things, that government workers should de-
vote full time to their jobs and re-|
frain from political activity. Not until the legislation reached the House did its sponsors have to come a determined attack. \ But already, with the bill broadening the application of the political ban just reported favorably by the Senate Privileges and Elec-
; tions Committee, Senator Sherman
Minton (D. Ind.) and others have indicated they would seek to block it when it reaches the Senate floor. With Senators Scott W. Lucas (D. Ill.) and Tom Stewart (D. Tenn.), Senator Minton fought the measure in committee. Senate veterans predicted today, however, that the bill would pass the Senate As it came from committee, if bars state ‘employees paid wholly or partly with Federal funds from activity in political campaigns or political management. Many state agencies whose emRloyess are free to electioneer are anced partly by Federal funds--highway departments being perhaps the best example. Reports of attempts to coerce state workers into political activity in current campaigns have reached Washington within the last few days.
