Senator Calder of New York Is
chairman of the United States senate
committee on reconstruction and pro-
ducti0n which Is making an inquiry
into the unsatisfactory conditions
of the construction industry. The
committee recently opened headquar-

Next on the program was visit to
Chicago, with probable hearings also
In Minneapolis and Kansas City.
In Chicago, for example, 1t is esti-
