by Senator Capper, Republican. OF

There should be higher tariff on

has been aroused by the behavior of

the water from time to time turns to

declares, ''that unless there is some
marked error in production figures,
chronological advances are taking
place at such rapid rate as to per-
petuate unemployment even during a
period of industrial revival. 1t also
suggests that we cannot rely upon
mere business pickup to solve the
unemployment problem"
George Soule, one Of the directors
of the Labor Bureau, yesterday esti-
mated that the permanent army of
the unemployed in the United States
at the present time is about 1900, 600.
Industrial production during the
last year has been only about 10 per
cent below normal" he said, while
unemployment has been far above
normal and has reached crisis. If
we take 100000 as the estimate of
the number of unemployed at the
present time, should say that about
one-half have been thrown out of
work because of chronological i'm
provements and belong to an APP
parently permanent army of the I'M

Figures from all sources show the
total number of unemployed is con-
,siderably greater than 100000 now.

would aid in decreasing unempIoy-

the demand for American goods,
