DRAFT LABOR TO INDUSTRY
FOR RELIEF, SAYS BABSON

Silver Bay, NJ Y.-Describing "all
politicians, high and low" as the chief
beneficiaries of the relief racket"
Roger w. Babson, economist, told
members of the Silver Bay Institute
that the United States is as much on
a dole as England and asserted that
until public attention is focused on
men instead of money 1.-THE world will
continue to suffer"
Money" said Mr.. Babson, will no
more succeed in getting us out of the
depression than it succeeded in keep
ing us out. Nor does the solution lie
in building nonproductive public
works, but in getting the unemployed
back to their old productive jobs
Organized relief he said, sis
benefiting the politician more than
the distressed unemployed. 1t is the
biggest racket in the country and all
politicians, high and low, are It's chief
beneficiaries."
Mr.. Babson urged quota plan
for bringing business back to normal
and pointed out "the real task" was
to balance production and consump-
ton so as to get everyone back to
work. He said simple remedy would
be to quota the unemployed against
employers and those already employ
ed.
This could be DONE" he said, "by
having each community budget the
number of its unemployed and quota
them among corporations, partner
ships, families and individuals at a
wage to be fair to all parties con-
cerned. This would be only the re-
verse of wartime practice-drafting
men into industry instead of out of
IT."
