President Green Of Labor Federation
 Talking Insurance

offered by Senator Wagner. demo- crat, New York. The Wagner bill, he explained, did not provide com pulsory insurance but offered in- ducements to states and industries to participate in it.
 Wagner would permit the fed eral government to contribute to unemployment insurance and would exempt from federal income tax all sums so contributed by indus try.
 "Our bill will incorporate three principal features" Green said, and he named them:
 Tt must. be compulsory in- surance.
 "2-The cost must be placed on industry and administration must be by the states.
 "3-Working men and women must be protected in the exercise of their right to belong to trade union.
 T mean by that latter princi- p1e," Green added, that unem- ployment insurance must not be- come the means of forcing persons to accept employment in non- union esta tablishments. We hold that since the anti-injunction bill passed by congress last session de- clared that recognition of the rights of collective bargaining and the formation of trade unions be acknowledged public policy, then 1t is necessary that insurance leg islation protect people who desire to exercise those rights.
 We always have been reluctant to develop unemployment insur- ance in this country because of the experience of working people .n Great Britain and Europe where such insurance is in effect. Records

show that the states set up employs ment agencies. and that those a1~ ministering the insuranco ol1~ leavor to secure work for the iob- less in order to reduce the insur- ance costs.
 When the agencies find work for an idle person he is compelled to accept 1t because his unernpioy- mept benefit immediately ends. You see, the y haven't any choice, 1t is compulsory.
 That system might work in Great Britain because there ate very few unorganized industries there. B't here 1t might serve to break up our unions by forcing workers to go into non-union ifl~ dustries and thereby surrender their union affiliation."

Sleep Serious
 Auto Hazard
Stoeckel Claims Study of Situation Needed

It is not always possible for I man to take a wife or sweetheart along with him in a motor vehicle to talk to him and keep him awake during long drive. Neither is 1t possible for one to depend upon a car radio to banish the urge to rest and relax. And yet sleep or the desire to sleep makes a serious hazard" says Robbins B. Stoeckel. commissioner of motor vehicles. who suggests that "such remedial action as may be devised should be pointed toward this menace"
 Operators of truck traffic have long since adopted extensive meas ures to combat the menace, MT Stoeckel adds. They have provided helpers for men when long driving hours are required. Truck oper- ators are now frequently seen rest ing at the roadside when fatigued. The same general situation applies to bus operation, following agita- ton arising from several serious accidents, so that demands upon operators are less exacting.
 But" he continues, there has as yet been nothing devised and no means considered by which the ordinary operator of the pleasure car can be protected against his tendency to fall asleep while at the wheel. It is entirely probable that professional men who do their own driving, and others whose work causes mental strain during the day, and who are compelled to drive at night for one reason or another, do recognize the danger and are forced to fight off the urge to sleep.
 Generally this is a successful proceeding. It can be accomplished by man through will-power alone, but 1t takes tremendous amount of determination and usual .ly is accomplished through some diversion. Many suggestions. some facetious, as to how these condi- tions can be met have been made from time to time, but one cannot always have the companionship re- ferred to not yet the radio pro- grams that might serve. It might be claimed, perhaps with some rea- son, that there are radio programs which would not banish sleep but certainly some of the musical pro- ductions in jazz time will do 1t. The effect of. radio music upon the mentality Of an operator has not as yet been thoroughly studied but in such cases observed 1t has been noted that attention has not been diverted to an extent where per- formance standards have been lowered.
 Tt is necessary that efforts of every person engaged in the man. ngement of transportation, espe. eIaily where operators have other human lives in their care. must Dc intensified to make sure operators got proper rest and that they are never in the physical condition where fatigue can enter Into per- formanes. The best thing to do K 10 surrender the wheel to some. one who is not tired. it Is neesH. hnry for oil t0 wake up' ta the fact that ssif.Eoyernment in aii matters N the hest safety accom- pllshment In this situation"

 Miss Mary C.. MacDonell will continue as leader of the dancing classes while Miss Lucy Russo will be director of after-sehool classes at Slocum school. Mrs J. D. lief fernan assisted by Mrs Julia Du- Bonis will continue her sewing classes at Bunker Hill church.
 Miss Crowley says that non mem- bership goal has been set for this year. Considering that last years membership figures were record breaking she will be satisfied if it can be kept up during the present economic crisis. Last year, the club increased the sales at the local department stores to the tune oi 9500 yards of material which were fashioned into 3777 articles. The cooking department spent s1670 ir grocery and meat stores in neigh borhoods where club centers are located.

(Cnftcd Press Stan correspondent
 Washington, Sept g. UP)- Compulsory unemployment insur- ance paid for by industry and en- acted by state, not federal, laws was described to-day by President William Green as an immediate objective of the American Fedora ton of labor.
 Green told the United Press a model insurance bill was being drafted. The program will be sub mitted to the Federation convention in Cincinnati after the presiden- tial elections.
 We found that constitutional in- 'hibitions would bar a federal un- employment insurance law" Green said. we wanted federal law but have abandoned that project. We will seek enactment of state laws throughout the Union."
 The federation has not previous ly demanded compulsory unem- ployment insurance. There is no doubt here that the convention will support Green in his state by-state insurance project.

dred and seventy-four delegates rep
resenting 70 workers organizations
attended the Toronto District Con-
vention of the Canadian Labor De-
tense League held on June 10 and

showed that the district had doubled

to the growing terror is the building
of mass defense organization.

ings of the Canadian Labor Defense
League the district secretary outlin-
ed the major campaign Of the League.
The working class leaders in Kings
ton penitentiary were elected hon
orary members of the Presidium at
