LEGISLATIVE PLANS
Program for ProgreSSiveS
Has 7 Points to Relieve
Economic Strain.
ny the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BOSTON, April pa seven-point
legislative program designed to ease the
Nations economic strain was advanced
last night by Senator Robert M. La Fol-
lette. jr., on behalf of the Progressive
groups in Congress.
The Wisconsin Republican, who heads
the Committee on Unemployment OF
the washington Conference OF Fro
1ressiyes of both parties, deploreA mer-
gers and wage reductions in o speech
before the Ford Hall Forum an added:
"To avoid the evils of untS distri-
button of wealth and anarclbc control
of industry, the Progressiv@ are con-
tending for Federal aid 70 meet the
emergency of unemployment rel1ef,
shorter work day and shorter work
week, maintenance of wage levels, sta
biltzation of industry, unemployment
insurance. rehabilitation OF agriculture
and exercise of the power OF taxation
through the graduated income and IN
heritance tax laws to meet the 1ncreaS-
ing burdens and responsibilities OF Gov
eminent"
"The Federal Government and the
Federal income tax payers escaped, 1t
Is true" he said, "but as result
staggering burden has been thrown
upon municipal, county and State gov
ernments. which are forced in all too
many cases to obtain heavy share OF
their income from taxes on real estate"
It was the duty, as well as the op-
portunity, of Progressives to formulate
a constructive program to be advanced
at the December session, he continued,
adding:
"The philosophy Of laissez faire ap-
piled during the last 10 years has
brought disaster. 1t Is obvious that we
cannot manage our highly developed
and intricate machinery upon the basis
of ideas or organization and control
developed in a predominantly agricul-
tural and individualistic society OF $50
years ago. These ideas have in fact
been abandoned by some OF our more
advanced industrial and financial lead
ers, as well as by our economists"

bers, the second Of which was espe-

STRAWN SEES
PROSPERITY
!, LIMP BACK
SLOW Point Reached" Head
of US. Chamber Points Out;
... Adjustment Abroad Needed

Hopeful signs on the economic
horizon are visible to Silas strawn.
of Chicago, president of the
United States Chamber of Com.
merce.
While he would make no effort
to predict when the country and
the world would throw off the
dead weight of depression, he said
today there we're indications OF
improvement in the business
structure and certainly there has
been a most optimistic feeling in
the last 10 weeks.
Low Point Reached
The 100000, 900 pool of the Ma
tional Credit Corporations in
creases in the prices of some
basic raw materials and certain
other factors were mentioned by
Strawn as indicative of progress.
He said:
"We certainly have reached
the low point of the depression.
The Chamber of Commerce Is
doing its utmost to assist in the
restoration of confidence. am
not pessimistic as to the future"
Certain fundamental develop
ments must take place, however.
before America gets back into the
march of prosperity which marked
the years prior to the stock mar,
ket crash in october, 1929, he
said.
European Phase Cited
In Mr.. Strawn's opinion. no
real and sustaining prosperity
will exist in the United States
until the multi,differences of Eu.
rope are adjusted. He evidently
felt that international affairs
political and economic - are so
closely interviewer as to have a
direct relationship to prosperity's
return.
The general taxing structure
Of the country should be re-
organized to remove the many
inequities, according to Mr.
Strawn. It was expected the
United States Chamber of Com
merce would have something to
say on the Federal tax situation
before Congress meets.

CLEANUP CAMPAIGN
RESULTS REVEALED
Office Buildings in Better Shape
and Unemployed Are Aided, As
ISOLATION Official Says.

A campaign for the rehabilitation Of
Office buildings during the past Win
ter, inspired by the National Associa-
ton of Building Owners and Managers,
provided employment for thousands of
men and millions Of dollars worth of
materials were used In the repair Of
buildings.
This was the substance Of the report
submitted to the annual convention Of
the association by Louis T. Clark of
Los Angeles, chairman Of the employ
ment committee.
mot only did this rehabilitation pro-
gram provide employment for thou
sands of men in all parts of the Ma
ton, but Office buildings were conspicu-
Gus in the fact that they did not con-
tribute to the general unemployment
situation during the past year and a
half" said Mr. Clark.
THE result of this work is that prop
critics are in much better physical con-
dition today than they were before the
campaign was launched. They are Ca
pable of rendering better type of serv-
ice to tenants. Thus in engaging in a
humanitarian enterprise we not only
have helped others, but have helped
ourselves
