DON'T SLASH
WAGES PLEA
OF GOVERNOR
Practice FIayed by Leslie
Opening State Session
on Jobs Relief.
NAME EXECUTIVE GROUP
Loans by Employers Are
Urged; Shorter Hours,
Week Talked.

Taking a definite stand against
wage cutting III the present unem-
ployment crisis, Governor Harry G..
Leslie laid down a program for
statewide cooperation in solving
unemployment problems and adj
ministering relief, in opening the
conference on unemployment called
by him at the statehouse today.
Three hundred prominent indus
trial, commercial, banking. agricul-
tural and labor leaders of the state
attended.
An executive council was appoint
ed to map out a concrete program,
to be put over through local CO.
operation.
Meeting of the council was called
for this afternoon by Elmer Stout,
Indianapolis banker, chairman, who
presided at the morning general
conference, following Les1ie's adj
dress.
Leslie Suggests Plan
Governor Leslie laid down the
following suggestions:
/. Private activities should boost
their own particular industries, with
the idea of return to normal con-
ditions.
2. Work on improvement of prop
critics should be given to the con-
Germs own unemployed
3. All public improvements shoulc
be pushed as far as possible now.
This is the proper time to advise
employers unable to provide work
for their regular employees, if at all
possible, to provide a friendly loan
to their reliable employees" said the
Governor.
He took a stand against the en-
ployment of whole families when
family heads need work badly. Wo-
men working ''iust for fun" also
were condemned.
The idea of making character
loans was supported by Rome
Stephenson. South Bend banker and
president of the American Bankers
Association.
Plans of unemployment relief at
! South Bend and in the Chicago dis
trict were discussed.
Shorter Week Tabled
Attempt was made by several
speakers to bring discussion around
to the shorter working week, shorter
hours and unemployment caused by
machines, but David Ross of La
fayette pointed out that this COM
mittee was not called to deal with
basic problems, but solve current
relief.
At the close of the meeting labor
leaders sought to have the confer,
encc go on formal record against
wage cutting at this time, but the
resolution was tabled by a vote oil
81 to SO.
Labor leaders appeared irate
since they have but single repre-
sentative on the council composed
OF twenty seven.
Officers OF the council are Stout
chairman; Lieutenant-G Governor &c
Bush, ce-chairman. and DR.. JOIN
Hewitt, prominent secretary.
indianapolis members are G.. NJ
Williams, J. F. Carroll, John A
Brown, John McGregor, Adolpt
Fritz and Stout.

Democrats Victories May Give Them Control of House
While Close Minnesota Race viii Tell Senate Story.

GUS parts of the country, showed the

lows:

ing IL elected Tuesday, elected
in Maine in September and %
holdoyers; Democrats, A. compris-
ing 81 elected Tuesday and 26 hold

Minnesota Hanging in Balance
Of the two remaining seats, one
is held by Farmer-LabOrite and
the other e-MinneSota-lS hang
ing in the balance.
House-Republicans, 213; Demo-
Gratis, 212 and probably 2l5; Farmer
Labor, /; undecided Gncluding three
of those listed above as probably
Democratic), 9.
The senate situation puts unique
power into the hands of Henrik
Shipstead, the Farmer Laborite. II
the Democrats emerge with forty
eight seats against forty-seven he
would hold the balance OF power,
and could, by voting with the Demo-
Gratis, give them a majority.
Curtis Would Cast Vote
On the other hand, If he voted
with the Republicans, it would be a
tie, and the Republicans would win
through the vote Of Vice-President
Curtis, who has the deciding vote
in case OF a tie.
The above, OF course, is theoret-
ical, presupposing full attendance
and strict regularity of the insur-
gent Republicans.
The house situation is equally in
tereSting. AS final returns trickled
