SON TAKES FATHER
 FROM HOUSE AFIRE
Flames Cause S1,000 Damage at
 356 East Main Street

Damage estimated at approxi- mately 5000 was done by fire in a house at S56 East Main street early last night, and Thomas Lynch, an elderly man, was carried from the second floor tenement by his son, Michael Lynch, the latter having been aroused from sleep by his sister. Miss Susan Lynch, who dis covered the fire.
 The family of George Hollister was not at home when the fire broke out near a stove in the first floor tenement. and when Miss Lynch opened the rear door of the second floor tenement she was beat en back by the heat and smoke. The fire by that time had gained considerable headway and worked up through the partitions to the second floor, giving the firemen who answered a "stilr' alarm and box alarm, stiff fight.
 The first Roor tenement was dam aged extensively, the kitchen. bath room and a closet being totally de- stroyed, and considerable damage was done on the second floor and in the attic. The Hollister furniture damage is covered by insurance. but it was said the Lynch family had none. Mir. Lynch, while badly shaken by his experience, is not be- heved to be seriously affected.
 Co. No. 1 was called at 7:0G o'clock and two minutes later an alarm waS rung from Box 412, call ing other companies. The recall was at 7;50 o'clock. T. Dwyer owns the property.

Wars and Industrial Com petition Will Reduce Man to Oblivion, Social ist Predicts.

New York, April Is (UP)-Nor- man Thomas a man whose hair has grown gray in the leadership of Host causes,'' sees the world today at a point where it either can plunge into chaos or emerge as well-ordered planet on which men live with lives according to some beneficent blueprint.
 One or the other will happen. he believes, within the next two gen. erations.
 Thomas talked yesterday in an interview with the United Press, of unemployment, of mergers, of the dangers of men becoming robots and he talked out of the richness of a career that has carried him from the pulpit of an exclusive church to the slums of New York as a social worker and through score of political campaigns. none of which he has won.
 He is a socialist and as such he has been defeated for political offices from alderman to president of the United States. Thomas has known two presidents intimately Warren G. Harding for whom he carried papers in Marion, Ohio, and Woodrow Wilson, under whom he studied at Princeton university.
 Approves Mergers
 As d socialist, he approves of the merging of giant industries so long as it serves an economic purpose in- stead of being another method of racketeering.'
 The ideal situation would be-" he said, ito have government opera ton. By that I do not mean indus try should be run by mayors. alder met and congressman. I mean the government, as the agency of the people, should have control and then appoint experts to do the ac- tual administration.
 T think we are at a crucial per 1od, and I think there is a. definite danger of men becoming robots unz less we move out of the chaos that we are in. Why, just think how ridiculous it would be for con- tractor to start putting up a build Ing without having plans. And yet, the world today is running without a plan. That is a fundamental, an underlying cause. of such evils as unemployment. The stock market crash last fall was only superfi- cial cause. Fierce, minimizing con- petition is contributing to the chaos"
 Interested In Present
 Thomas, who has earned a repu- tation as a practical humanitarian, is more interested in the present than in the future. He points out that "technological unemployment is getting worse-that is, that to some extent men are being sup planted by machines. So he pleads for shorter working hours. so la bor may be distributed among more persons. And he secs in shorter working hours, the blessings of leis-

Norman Thomas Says Men Must Regulate Their Lives According
 To Rules Or Chaos Will Result

ure, the chance for men and women to cultivate their gardens and their minds after they are through work.
 Broadly speaking" he said, "technological unemployment will solve itself in the long run. By that I mean that if machinery is to, play an increasing part in our life, if we are to have more ma chimes, then there still must be men to manufacture the machines.
 What will make robots of men quicker than anything is to keep them working at machines for long hours each day until they go home at night so exhausted that they have no interest other than getting a nights sleep.
 Let such condition continue let the world proceed on it's present hit-or-m miss system and we shall surely have chaos in two genera tions.
 Wars and the fierceness of in dustrial competition will so reduce us that, in the words of J. B. S. Haldane, man and all his works will go down to oblivion
