SHORTER WORK WEEK INDORSED
Senator” Wagner Supports Plan to Spread Work.
By ANN HICKS United Press ‘Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Aug. 29 (U., P.). —The theory of a shorter work week to spread employment among avail able workers today received the full support of one of the nation’s foremost champions of labor and: social security legislation. This whole question promises to hecome one of the major nation’s economic issues in the post-war period, with important segments of tusiness already lining up against any such move, Senator Robert F, Wagner (D. N. Y.), author of much of the na« tion's outstanding social legislation of the last 12 years, said he agreed with United Mine Workers Presi dent John L. Lewis and Willihm L, Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, that the government should shortén working hours to bolster employment.
“Board to Come” The senate banking committee chairman said he wasn't sure whether such a provision could be inserted in the administration's
jobs-for-all bill, but he told re porters: “It's bound to come, There should be a shortening of the work week to make more employment.” Increasing productivity of workers and improved industrial techniques were stressed by Green. Because of these factors and growing population, he said, American industry will have to provide about 1,000,000 new jobs, “We will have to shorten the work week to treate some of these new jobs,” he asserted. Lewis, in his first public appearance in months, said before Wagner's committee yesterday that it is vitally necessary for the government in planning for full employment “to have the power to deal with the number of productive hours American industry will operate.” Spread Buying Power Otherwise, he said, goods will pile up in warehouses because there will not be enough buying. power to purchase them. Lewis predicted the nation's productive capacity within the next
