"Lame Duck" Policy
 And Unemployment
Case of Rep Cramton Cited as Republican Administra-
 ton Method of Job Finding

Washington. Nov. I'm the va rlous plans for solving the unem- ployment problem. 1t has been sug- gested that If the methods and zeal of the administration In finding jobs for the lame ducks of the 71st congress were followed greater suc- cess would crown the efforts.
 A typical case cited is that of former Representative Louis c. Cramton, for IS years the mem- Der form the seventh Michigan dis trict, and a wheel horse for the republican party, who was defeat- ed in 193O by wet opponent. The case of MT. Cramton is reviewed by the Baltimore Sun, which says: Tt was, of course, unthinkable that he should be allowed to re- main idle. Six million workers might be walking the streets look ing for jobs, but 1t was out of the question to have former republi- can member of congress cut off from the public payroll. So things were arranged to give MT. Cramton job.
 First 1t was planned to make him a director of the Washington -Bi-Centennial Commission, but embarrassing repercussions follow ed the premature disclosure of thsi plan, and 1t was finally abandoned. Later the interior department, whose appropriations MT. Cram- ton had always handled while in the house, sent the defeated con gressman out to Boulder City as a sort of legal adviser on the Boulder Dam contract. That job, too, has blown up now, but scarcely was 1t ended when the department sent the former representative off on
