Public Works Program
Would Relieve Millions


Unemployed Americans and
their dependents by the mil
lions will say "Amen and
Amen" to these words of a
father whom Senator Cut
ting of New Mexico quoted
on the floor of the United
States Senate one year ago
this month:
"There are tWo other
BIS Which are eUen more
important than balancing
the budget and these are
bread and butter
At that time the admins
tration then in power was
obstructing the adoption by
Congress of a comprehensive
program Of public works,
sufficiently extensive to put
men to work by the mil
lions.
Now, the Hoover admin
istration is history. But
would-be budget balancers
are still opposing the author
ization by Congress of an I'M
employment relief program
Of public works for which
plans are available, for which
bonds can be floated, and
for which from twelve to
fifteen million unemployed
Americans are waiting in
urgent need.

What is left Of our

in need of housing. Instead
of taking ten years to house
our Defenders with the

demands they should be
housed, this building pro-
gram could be completed in
three years at a saving Of
several millions Of dollars.
Building up our Navy and
adding to our merchant ma
rine would spread work
among thousands of idle
wage earners up and down
our coast, revive the ship
building industry and give
new life to many industries
among which the orders for
the materials for this con-
structlon would be dis
tributed.

Gently would strengthen it's
effectiveness and return to
employment North, East,
South and West thousands
of wage earners long jobless

work in the building trades.
A we'll balanced public
works program means public
construction of many diff
ferent types. This would
call for large amounts of
structural and other supplies
and building materials.

Real Economy
In Building Now

Needed public works, it
undertaken now by Federal,
State and local governments,
can be constructed more
cheaply than for years past
or for years to come. In
carrying out such a pro-
gram, the Federal Govern
ment would finance con-
struction of buildings for
it's own use and give IL
nancial aid to State and
local governments in the
building Of public works
they require.
This country needs new
highways from coast to

border to the Gulf of

Jobs VS..
The Dole

The contentious of these
budget statisticians that it
would be wiser to dole out
the Government s millions
in the form of free food and
free clothing than to give
the needy unemployed the
work which they seek are
an affront to the American
spirit.
These contentious are ably
answered by a professor of
economics in the University
of Chicago. This authority,
Prof. H. A. Willis, says:
%n my opinion, it is
wiser to borrotV money
for needed public works
than to borrov money for
mere relief of the desti-
tute y X X While perhaps
a giUen sum of money wiU
go somewhat further in
financing relief than in
placing men at work and
thus minimizing relief. I
am convinced of the Ualue
of EN- pLOying men on
needed public uUOrks at
this time.
!"Relief inUolUes great
risk of developing the
spirit of dependency;
ork makes for indie
pendence and self-reLi-
ance.
"Relief is accompanied
by deteriorated efficiency.
Mere relief leaves nothing
behind except a record of
money spent; employment
on needed public works
results in tangible things
Which wiu serUe the needs
of the community for
years to come"

Ex-Copper Admits Perjury
in Seaman Case, ProSecu-
tor Says; Jury Out.

James G.. Seaman, president of

today was convicted of grand lar
ceny in sealed verdict returned
today by a jury in criminal court.
The verdict was reached at s p. m.
Friday night. Conviction carries
a mandatory penalty of 2 to IA
years in the state prison.
Purported confession of perjury
by the chief defense witness, while
a deadlocked jury was voting II to l
for conviction, is a complication to
be settled in criminal court today in
the trial of James C. Seaman. auto
mobile dealer charged with con-
spiracy.
Melvin Lee Hindman, former po-
liceman, and also under conspiracy
indictment, is said to have confessed
in written statement late Friday
night, that his testimony regarding
purchase of car from Seaman was
false.
The defense case, presented by
Thomas MCGEE and Fred Barrett
attorneys, was built around Hind
mans testimony, to refute the state
charge that Seaman discounted fic-
titiOuS contracts to finance com
panies.
Hindman has been in Jail since
his bond was raised from $1,000 to
$500 by Special Judge Clyde Kar-
rer Thursday. Prosecutor Herbert
E. Wilson is said to have obtained
