INQUIRY IN TALK

T0 STATE GROUP,

Industry Is Defended by

Director of National I’

Association.

The plumbing industry, now under Federal investigation, was defended today by FP. B. Lent of Saginaw, | Mich, in an address to the Indiana Master Plumbers Association con-| vention at the Lincoln Hotel “There is nothing wrong with the!

methods used in the plumbing in |

dustry for many years, unless the | whole capitalistic system fs wrong,"

Stationers to Convene Here—) About 300 delegates from midwestern states are expected to attend the annual two-day regional con-

vention of the National Stationers meeting of the Indiana Society of ciation officers will be held here Sate!

Association Friday at the Hotel]

Lincoln,

Mr. Lent declared. He is director of | §

the National Association of Master! Plumbers “There is no mystery as to why | we are in business,” he said. "We | want to make a surplus, sometimes! called a profit. And why notd| ability of the businessman to make | a profit determines the success or failure of our democratic system,

Expects Vindication

“Unless the Federal Government wishes to fssue a blanket indictment of the whole profit sytem in Amerfean business, IT am sure that the plumbing industry will be completeIv vindicated.” Mr. Lent charged that the Government “thinks we are to blame for the fact that building isn't going ahead ‘as it used to." He said he was convinced the lag in the construe tion industry ik due to economic conditions and not building indus try practices The truth of the matter Ig that the Federal Government is perplexed and is trying to find a solution.” he said The present Mmvestigation is pointed in the direction of restricting the small businessman,

‘Not the Answer

"We are convinced that this is not the answer, To break the small businessman and throw thousands on the relief rolls isn't going to help the building industry or the general economic situation, In fact, the result will be a further demoralization of business conditions and the country will be worse off than before the investigation was launched.” Mr. Lent predicted, however, that the gain in sales of plumbing fixtures stimulated by an 11 per cent residential construction rise this year compared with last would continue throughout the vear,
