Miss Crowley remained In Waterbury where much work remained to be done immediately following the Christ mas party rush, as well as the planning and getting ready for several new classes which will be organized this week.
 Probably the most interesting of these will be the Social Customs class which is to meet for the first time Wednesday afternoon at LeaVenWorth House.

SENATE ECONOMY
| MEASURE SCORED
Emergency Committee Calls
Proposed Salary Cut
Morally Wrong.

The National Emergency Committee
on Legislation Affecting Federal En-
ployes at meeting last night vieor-
ously opposed in its entirety the Sen.
ate economy bill.
The committee is countrywide in
scope and is composed OF representa-
tives Of the American Federation of
Labor. veterans organizations and civic
groups. 1t was organized by William
Green. president Of the Federation of
Labor, and the meeting last night was
held in the federation's headquarters.
In a resolution adopted at the ses-
sion. the committee called on Congress
and the people Of the country to reject
the economy bill The resolution par
tcularly attacked the proposed wage
cut FOR Federal employees and reductio: .
in veterans compensation.
Calls Wage Cut Unwise.
A Federal wage cut would be n,orsllv
wrong and economically unwise, the
committee agreed.
Congress was importuned in the res
olution Carefully and deliberately to
take steps to restore confidence by in
suring public safety, restoring the pub
lie purchasing power and thereby i'm
proving business in general"
The country. the resolution stated,
does not want lectures on economic
theories, but act:on-and prompt ac-
tion-to remove the spectres OF starva-
ton and suffering and allay the spirit
of unrest brought about by unemploy-
ment"
More than 30 speakers addressed the
meeting. They cited specific instances
in which they said the wage slash OF
veterans compensation reduction would
work injustice and hardships and dis
cussed the economy bill in detail.
Presents Analysis Of Bill.
An analysis of the bill was presented
to the committee by w. c. Roberts,
legislative representative of the Aneri-
can Federation Of Labor. who said the
measure would intensity the paralysis
Of business"
The bill was called vicious at
tack on the veterans" by Col John
Thomas Taylor, legislative representa-
tive Of the American Legion.

Soviet Russia is such an important
factor in world trade that it is also the

The London statement of Neville
Chamberlain, chancellor Of the British

and war debts are inseparably tied up
with plans for an improvement of the

statements from Rome and Paris were
noted here but there Is no sign Of
change in the American attitude.
This Government has made it clear
it will 60 to world economic confer
ence in London with the reservation
that 1t will not discuss reparations and
war debts.
There is great uncertainty as to the
outcome Of the Lausanne reparations
conference which opens June Is. The
results obtained there would have much
effect on subsequent economic dis
cusSions.
Somers' Plan App0sed.
Until Germany and its former enc
mics reach some agreement at Lau-
same on reparations, the agenda of
the subsequent economic conference
will probably remain vague.
However. the United States intends
to send their European representatives
to any economic conference which may
be held so it will be possible to make
arrangements speedily when the situa-
ton clarifies.
Meanwhile Secretary Stimson today
advised the House Foreign Affairs
Committee OF his opposition to the
Somers resolution for an international
monetary conference He took the posi-
ton the conference being planned
would cover the field dealt with by the
resolution.

Grams here from all sections of the
country to demand full payment of

While on his way TO the veterans
camp early this afternoon Levin, in eX-
planning the purpose of the confer
ence. said there should be friendly

tachment'
Unity Close Ranks"
He said the elected committees of
the marchers must report ito the rank
and file their proposals and plans for
final adoption. They must not commit
us to a policy without consent.
Through this cooperation and
friendly planning we will build strong.
united forces of all the delegations and
build the united mass demonstration on
June to support our committees who
will present our demands to Congress.
Unity Close Ranks" is our slogan.
We are mass delegations for the mil
lions of war veterans. Their eyes are
on US. Their welfare depends on our
constructive decisions
In explaining the leagues views as to
the eligibility in participating in the
demonstration Levin said
The issue is not what is your poll
tics. religion. race or where you were
born. The question is are you an ex-
service man. do you support the de-
mand for the immediate cash payment
of the bonus, will you agree to abide by
the regular and ordinary rules OF con-
duct voted on by the rank and file?"
