SAYS BUILDING
INDUSTRY MUST
BE CLEANED UP
Herbert Hoover, Speaking Al
Chicago, Tells His Ideas
On the Subject

Chicago, April 4.-The practices of
a small minority in the construction
industry are uncomfortable and must be
cleaned up if the business and COM
merce desire protection "from the
steady invasion of regulatory hands
of the government" Herbert Hoover
secretary of commerce, said in an ad-
dress today before the fifth annual
meeting of the National Federation Of
Construction Engineers. The secre-
tary said that during the past 10
months the department of commerce
has given intensive study of the stu-
alton in the construction industry and
then made the comment "this situation
simply must be cleaned up.
Conclusions reached by the depart
ment Mr.. Hoover summarized as fol-
lows: .,.
That the industry needs cleaning
and the decent men must organize to
do it;
That the great indirect wastes which
are beyond the control Of any one In
dividual man or concern must be elm
mated by associated action and that to
accomplish these ends there is needed
a cleaner organization of the trades,
not the destruction of the trades or
ganization.
Mr.. Hoover added that the building
trades could pioneer great trail OF
national advance in the cutting out OF
lost motion and waste"
