BABS0N WARNS OF
 BUSINESS DECLINE
Even Hints That There May Be
 Panic in Few Years

Wellesley Hills, Mass, Sept. Il R "A distinct recession in business and possibly a panic within the next two or three years would not be surpris- ing" Roger w. Babson, head of the Babson statistical organization, told delegates to the 18th annual na- tional business conference which opened here today.
 Such decline would be merely temporary, he added, but when It comes Tit will be the result of the over-extension of the installment business, which today is eating into the vitals of business like a cancer"
 Readjustment would bring indus tries to greater heights than ever, he added.
 Business at the present time is good, considering the country as whole. We are in a period of pros perity and most things point to two or three years of prosperity ahead of us, but most American people are living in a fools paradise and may be rudely awakened at any time."
 The best conditions exist on the Pacific coast and in the Oklahoma section, the poorest in Minnesota Iowa, Nebraska, Florida and the Rocky mountain states, he said. The Babson chart, "a composite baro- meter of all lines and all sectlons' now stands at 12 per cent above normal"
 Labor is quiet, money Is easy, commodities are stable and most industries are enjoying a good VOL ume of business, but there are three flies in the ointment. First the for- eign situation, which is still very bad, second the installment buslness' which is eating the vitals out of the American people, and third the lacC that the manufacturing capacity or almost all industries exceeds the consuming power.
 "Jrnion labors repose" he lald to inc failure of the railroad strike here and the British general coal strike. Touching on the stock mar ket. he predicted decline Of so noints in from one to three years with the added advice that those who wish to render real service today can do so by storing up cash nending the next panic rather than by buying securities at the present time.'
 The conference will extend toI September 13. with discussions oy nationally known authorities on gen. eral business, sales policies, com modity prices. building situanon' labor and wages, investments m- stallment selling, foreign conditions motor and air transportation de- weather outlook ana effect on business and the present Florida outlook.

As yet, big time events are rather scarce in the radio world. Mex week. on Wednesday evening, the
 Radio Industries banquet will bt held, that being the biggest event ol the year so far, if plans made 50 fal can be taken as criterion. Then the Boston Symphony orchestra will broadcast a series of concerts from WBz and several other stations, be- ginning October 9, and the winter series of Atwater- Kent program will be coming along from WEAF and the chain gang before long. But reg ular evening g-to-evening feature stuff is rather lacking and program sheets contain a rather mediocre brand of material to work on.
 Miss Baum To Sing.
 One feature, above the ordinary, which will be presented from WBZ, Springfield, this month, will be a song recitalby Miss Grace L. Baum of this city. Miss Baum has rich contralto voice and she is well known in musical circles here.

 Radio Industries Banquet.
 The big event of next week will be the Radio Industries banquet which is scheduled on the programs of nearly 40 stations, the largest number that has ever handled any one event. WEAF, New York, and WIZ, New York, will be the sources of the festivities as far as are con- cerned broadcasting stations in all parts of the country. WEAF will take care Of its usual large chain, while WIZ will also be hooked up with large number.
 WIZ will commence broadcasting at S:30 o'clock in the evening, while the WEAF chain will join in at g o'clock. The program will continue until after midnight. The banquet will be held in the Grand Banquet hall of the Hotel Astor, New York city, and it will bring together one of the most notable array of celebri- ties ever appearing at one time be- fore the microphone.
 There will be more than 1000 guests present, it is expected, and the guest of honor and principal speaker will be Vice President Charles G. Dawes. Paul B. Klugh, executive chairman of the National Association of Broadcasters, will act as toastmaster, and Major J. Andrew White of WIZ sport fame, will be master of ceremonies.
 The entertainment program to be broadcast as portion of the pro- ceedings of the banquet will bring together a large number of famous and popular artists of high caliber. Miss Mary Lewis, soprano of the Opera company, who has returned from Europe especially to sing at the banquet, will be one of the participants, as will Reinald far famed baritone. There will be many other features, the cream of the WEAF and WIZ groups. The entertainment

WGY, Schenectady, presented an interesting program by the Reming- ton band from Ilion, New York. Vic tor Herbert's Fortune Teller" was we'll presented. and we marvelled at the matter in which the offering came through. The station was very loud.
 Don't think that just because we haven't recorded many stations, the evening wasn't excellent. It was, but we were interested in WPG, and we decided to stay there. We did until all the festivities were nearly over, and then, when We started to shop around, we found that the "A" bat tery was in need of refreshment. So we started the old charger going and picked up a book.

Penalty on Employers
of Child Labor

NEW YORK-Miss Francis Per-
kins of the State Industrial Board
states that striking results have been
obtained by imposing on the employ
ers a penalty of double compensation
for children injured while illegally
employed.
The case is cited of an employer
who was assessed double compensa-
tion four times in one week. Where
upon he changed his employment pol
icy so that now working papers are
demanded and children barred from
work on dangerous machinery.
There is no mention. however. of
what provisions are made for those
needy children who are barred from
employment thru these means. This
points out that petty reforms Of the
child labor evil will prove of no avail,
unless. at the same time the inter-
ested organizations demand that the
children be maintained in food, cloth
ing and shelter by the government.

LABOR PARTY

MOVE Ignores
Miners union
Parliamentary Group
Asks Hurried Deal
tspeoIn 70 nae DaIIy W0rI.erl


LONDON, June "a. = Suspicious
movements of the labor party parIia-
mentary group to dicker with Premier
Baldwin for terms of compromise in
the mine strike over the heads Of the
miners union leaders appeared yester-
day in the house Of commons when
the governments bill supposed to per-
NIT the reorganization Of the industry
passed the second reading by vote Of
S36 to 147.
In the discussions, labor party
spokesman, Vernon Hartsborn, appeal
ed for conference between members
of the house representing the mine
owners and the miners" Other labor
party members supported the sugges-
tion.
Winding up the debate and speaking
for the government, Sir Lamin
Neutrality-suspicious. said that if Harts-
horn was authorized by the miners to
negotiate, the government would be
t'delighted" to meet him at once to
discuss any scheme offered, but would
not meet any unauthorized spokesman.
The miners themselves regard with
displeasure any effort to make deals
with the government over the head of
their union executives. Many look
upon the move of the labor party
parliamentary group as new effort
to forestall any proposals for militant
support by labor generally in behalf
of the miners, which may be made at
the conference of trade union execu-
tives due to meet Friday
A. j. Cook of the miners union has
announced that the union is asking
the dockers and railwaymen's union
to establish a boycott strike against
all foreign coal coming or to come
into England
The government has craftily put
the so-called reorganization bill" up
for passage before the bill to lengthen
hours, which it previously proposed to
take up first. BY this It aims to. get
a wedge in on the miners by forcing
them to take a wage cut temporarily
as the bill provides during reorganiza-
tion, under tie guise that this will be
all that will be asked, then force the
longer hours bill thru afterward by
parliamentary majority.
