FURLOUCH PLAN
Adopted By Senate in Place
of Federal Pay Cut

Washington, d. C. (ILNS)-Fol-
lowing an appeal by President Will
liam Green, of the American FEEDER
alton of Labor, in favor of the five
day week furlough plan for govern
ment employees, the senate reversed
its stand for 10 per cent cut in pay
of federal workers and substituted a
plan for compulsory furloughs with
out pay.
The furlough plan as adopted elm
mates the economy committees pro-
posal of 10 per cent pay cuts on sal
aries over $1,000. In its stead, every
federal worker is made subject to a
30-day annual furlough without pay
on the ''fve-day week principle y
Workers earning less than $1,000 are
exempted from its provisions.
District of Columbia police and
firemen also are excluded from the
furlough, along with enlisted person
mel of the army, navy, coast guard
and marine corps. In services, such
as the legislative, where the plan
could not operate successfully, an 8.3
per cent pay cut is substituted. Sal
aries of the vice president, speaker
of the house, senators and represen-
tatives are reduced 10 per cent.
Provision that no federal employe
be furloughed more than five days in
any one month without his consent
was inserted on recommendation OF
Senator La Toilette.
The house has voted to cut the
wages of federal employees IL per
cent, with salaries of $1,000 or be-
low exempted. Before adopting the
furlough proposal, the senate had ap.
proved 10 per cent cut in federal
salaries, with a $1,000 exemption.

in the Dune issue of the American
ton of Labor, in the leading editorial
Federationist, official organ of the
federation, suggests the creation of a
national advisory council.
The editorial reiterates the fedora
tion's view that only action by the
federal government can prevent eco
nomic collapse and places response
bility for the prevention of national
disaster upon congress, with the bur-
den of responsibility shifting to the
president after congress has done its
part.
when congress has done its part"
the editorial says, upon the execu-
| tive will fall responsibility for wise
administration. The emergency is so
acute that the chief executive will
need the counsel of representatives
from various groups. Labor suggests
an advisory council through which the
president could have regular and de-
pendable information so that develop
ing problems could be met quickly.
Such council should be bipartisan,
small, but representative of the i'm
portant groups"
Federal Credit Urged
The situation of the country today
contains the threat of collapse of our
economic structure, a calamity which
only the federal government can pre-
vent, it is stated. Much of the coun-
try's difficulty is laid by the fedora
ton to "a real conflict between busi-
ness and finance as financial institu-
tions are now conducted"
'The obvious way around this dead
lock-" it is suggested, "is to make
federal credit available directly to in
dustries and to provide work through
national construction undertakings or
by loans to states or cities.
"Wage earners have shown their ca
pacity to keep their heads in diff
cult situation and patience in waiting
upon adjustments, but they cannot
and should not permit starvation to
overtake them.
Legislation Now Imperative
Congress is preparing to adjourn
shortly. Thus far it has refused to
make any provision for the relief o.
those denied opportunity to earn their
living. Responsibility for averting
disaster rests squarely upon the
members of the senate and house of
representatives. Legislation must be
enacted now in order to become affec-
tive in time"
In closing, the editorial declares
that "if we would maintain our social
and national progress we must plan
to control developments in the next
few months and direct our progress
toward recovery"

WORKERS
In Industry Face Higher Di-
sease Rate than White
Collar Employees

Washington, D. c. (ILNS)-Work-
ers in American industries suffer a
much higher disease and death rate
than clerical, professional and com
mercial workers, report presented
to meeting in Washington of pub
lie health officers of the United
States and Canada emphasized. This
is especially the case with heart, kid
ney and other so-called degenerative
diseases, and is due to bad working
conditions, the report said.
"No one will question" said the re-
port of the industrial hygiene COM
mittee, Chat dangerous, or even un-
wholesome environment endured from
third to almost half of ones work
ing life, must have definite effect on
the occurrence of these diseases. the
increasing mortality of which is the
cause of such grave concern" In
some cases, the report pointed out,
the industrial worker faces twice as
much hazard as the white collar
! worker.
"The industrial worker at the age
of TO-" the report continued, "has a
life expectancy of AZ years. The 20
year-old worker in the non-hazardous
occupations has life expectancy of
49 years, a difference of seven years. >
Important factors in causing
this shortage, it was pointed out,
are dust, excessive fatigue, bad
posture, crowded work rooms,
dampness, extreme changes of
temperature and occupational
poisons.
'There is no question:" continued
the report, "that large numbers of in
dustrial workers continue to work at
a low physical and mental level, which
is due not to the fact that they nor
mally are lazy or stupid, but because
they are in poor health brought on
by the very conditions under which
they remain employed. Perhaps un-
fortunately for the alienation of the
condition, they are not sick enough
for their ailments to be recognized as
being caused directly or indirectly by
their work. Such men are unable to
give their best services to their en-
ployers nor to make the most of
themselves"

|U. S. Commerce Chamber Leads
Pay Cut Drive, Senate Told
Merle Thorpe, Editor of Nations Business Is Directing
Genius OF Movement to Slash Government Wages As
Cue to Private Enterprise, North Dakota Senator
Charges

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-Tha
the United States Chamber of Com.
merce had led the drive for reduction
of government salaries in order that
| private business might be able to
point to the government example il
its nationwide war on wages, was
charged in the senate by Senator Ger
aid p Nye, of North Dakota.
Nye loaded his speech with refer
ences and figures and charged that
Merle Thorpe, editor of Nations
Business, the Chamber of Commerce
magazine, was the directing genius
of the chambers war ON government
pay.
Thorpe was taken down the line
mercilessly by Nye, who pointed to
Thorpe's own $4,000 year salary.
His editorial, radio and platform
campaign was scored in one of Nye's
best speeches.
At the outset the North Dakotan
pointed out that some 276,000 gov
ernment employees earn $500 year
or less and he dwelt upon the suffer
ing entailed among them by 10
per cent reduction.
Thorpe's Figures Erroneous
He then quoted at length from one
of Thorpe's addresses in which the
Chamber of Commerce editor gave
what purported to be figures showing
the increased cost of government de-
partments. Error in these figures
was shown at one point by Nye by
citing that whereas Thorpe gave the
cost of the department of COM
merce for 1924 and the current year,
but did not say that most of the in
creased cost of that department has
been caused by adding to it bureaus
taken from other departments and
without adding to the total cost of
government.
"Then," said Nye, "he comes down
to those features of federal expendi-
lures upon which he harps most free
ly, the federal power commission,
the interstate commerce commission,

| the federal trade commission and
the tariff commission, all of which
Mr.. Thorpe and the United States
Chamber of Commerce would be de-
lighted to see dumped bag and bag
gage into the Potomac river. He
attacks, too, the Bureau of Public
| Health, the Child Welfare Bureau and
other units of government which
have been set up to perform service
to the people"
Then Nye sailed into the chamber
for it's own record, making plain the
inconsistency of that oligarchy of big
business. He showed that the cham
ber's expenditures have outstripped
government costs in percentages and
that the chamber has not made the
salary cuts it urges upon government.
In 1925, Nye said, total expendi-
lures of the chamber were $2,096,000.
In 1880 they were $4,061 900. AS for
retrenchment, Nye said the chamber
had discharged only four men and ten
girls. On March 1, this year, those
earning from $1,000 to $4,000 were
cut per cent. Those from $4,000 to
$4,000 wer cut 71a per cent. All
over that were cut 10 per cent.
81 look upon this entire (Chamber
of Commerce) program" said Nye,
(which has been engineered so skill
fully this past winter by the United
States Chamber of Commerce as be-
ing one of the most vicious, unfair
undertakings ever known in American
public life"
Takes Up Bankers Fight
There is reason to believe that the
United States Chamber of Commerce,
in the campaign led by Merle Thorpe,
is taking up the cudgels where the big
bankers dropped them when they got
too hot for the bankers. Whether the
chamber will be called upon to face
a senatorial inquiry for the campaign
revealed by Senator Nye is not yet
certain, but it appears to be possi-
bility.

and limitation of contractors, de-
manded by the union.
Both speakers declared the union
would never accept the piecework de-
mand of the Industrial Council of
Cloak and Suit Manufacturers. The
union leaders told the shop chailmen
to be on their guard against any at
tempt of employers to introduce the
piecework system. The old agreement
with the employers had already ex-
pired.

General Electric Increases
Assessment for Idle Relief

Schenectady, N. Y.-The company
