Leader WeisbOrd
Says United Front
Stands Pat at Passaic

Passaic y. j.. April 22.-(Py-
While preparations were being made
today for a meeting of strikers rep
resentatives with Governor Moore's
mediation board tomorrow, Albert
Weisbord. youthful organizer of the
textile strike, announced that the
United Front Committee would not
yield in any of its demands and that
any settlement must be ratified by
the union.
Weisbord said that Henry T. Hunt
OF New York would appear as coun-
sci for the strikers at the meeting
with the governors board but de-
clined to say whether he himself
would be present.
Speaking at four meetings of
strikers today Weisbord told his fol-
lowers that when the strike is won
the scabs working in the mill will be
obliged to quit because they will be
ostracized."
He said he would stay in Passaic
after the settlement in order to con-
solidate the position of the union in
the mills. This, he estimated, would
take at least two months.
Weisbord declared that under cer-
tain unstated conditions he would
have no objection to turning the or
ganization over to the American
Federation of Labor organizers if
the proposal was made.

House AllOts Three
Hours to Talk on
Forest Conservation

Washington. April 2e-(P)-For
three hours legislation was laid aside
today in the house while members
discussed forest conservation num-
Der advocating expansion of the fed
eral re-forestation program.
The discussion was in line with ma
tional forestry week now being OBJ
served and was arranged by Repre-
sentative Davey, Democrat, Ohio.
Representative Tilson, the Republi-
can leader, favored a national con-
servation policy to counterfeit "a
ruthless destruction of American
forests, while Representative John
son, Republican. Washington, urged
a revision Of Inheritance tax laws
contending this would tend to keep
large forest areas intact and prevent
their dissipation.
Mr.. Davy asserted telephone and
electric power companies were res
ponsible for the destructio- of thous-
ands of trees along highways, Repre-
sentative Insolvency.. Democrat
Ohio. urged federal support of efforts
to rehabilitate cut-over timber areas
while Mr.. Woodruff appealed for fav-
orable action on his bill to appropri-
ate $4,000. 900 over a ten year period
for purchase of timber lands in the
eastern. section of the country.
