Union Workmen Are Them
selves Responsible For Un-
employment, Says

WASHINGTON. d. C., Oct. l.
An attack on union labor by Sem
ator Nelson, republican, Minnesota,
and successful fight against a
committee amendment which II was
claimed would discriminate against
American ships in favor Of foreign
craft, marked Senate consideration
today Of the republican tax revision
bill.
Senator Nelson declared that the
workmen themselves were response
bic for most Of the unemployment
over the country because they would
not consent to rcadiustment Of
wages. To the railroad workers he
attributed part of the responsibility
for present high fcight rates. as
serting that until there was reduc-
tion in high wages and bonuses al
lowed during government control the
people could not hope TO get cheap
er transportation tariffs.
Referring to the threatened strike
of railroad workers, the Minnesota
senator said he was getting tired Of
threats 10 tie UP. the transportation
system and thought there should be-
a showdown.
Let the people understand once
for all what these men mean by
threatening TO strike" said Senator
Nelson. LET them understand that
IL means the stopping Of food sup
plies and other essentials; want and
starvation in our cities and towns.
and venture the prediction that the
American people will rise in their
might and wipe these men from the
face Of the EARTH

DC. SCHOOL NEEDS
b TOTAL %,o)o,0(l)
Officials Study Report of
1908 Commission on Build
ing Program.

Nearly $4.o0o0o0 would be needed
to bring the public school building
program up to date If the recommen-
dations of the schoolhouse commits
sion in 1908 are carried out accord
ing to figures compiled today by
school officials after a study of the
commissions report
The commission thirteen years ago
recommended that. beginning in
1909 and for period Of FIVE years,
$1.000.0e0 should be spent annually
in constructing school houses After
the hve-year period it stated that
$S00.000 should be spent yearly.
port, however. it did not foresee the
phenomenal increase in the enroll
ment in the public schools which has
occurred since the war. nor did it
base its estimates on the present cost
OF building. In 1905 the cost of
building was II L cents square foot;
today school officials say it approx
mates 40 cents.
Present Cost Higher.
After ascertaining the amount
spent on schoolhouse construction
since 1909, school officials say that
TO carry out the commissions recon-
mendations today it would cost al
most s4,000.000. This figure. it is en-
phasized. is based on the present cost
of building construction.
The figures were cited by school
officials to indicate how far the
school building program would be be-
hind today if normal condition had
prevailed since 1909. when the school
commissions recommendations were
proposed to become effective How
ever, it is estimated that over $32 =
100000 is necessary to meet all the
needs Of the school system today.
