Woodin would not indicate
when the currency expansion
would begin. However, at the
termination Of the bank holiday,
the Federal Reserve banks will
begin to function more or less
normally, and will be distributing,
as the fiscal agents Of the Treas
ury, Federal Reserve notes.
T. Because Of the holiday and the
general situation, the demand for
the Federal Reserve notes will be
tremendous.

not surprising. He said that, due

The Clearing House Association
is considering the question OF

lieved that this will not be needed

Scrip Action To Wait

and still confirming to the Presi-
dents order.
In the opinion Of number of
bankers no action will be taken
until the expiration of the holi-
day, slated for midnight tomor-
row.
It was believed that the policy
of the local banks will be to sit
tight during the balance Of the
holiday, taking no action until
the plans being worked out by
the President and his Cabinet are
presented to the special session
of Congress called for tomorrow
The Clearing House committee
will continue to study the ques'
ton of scrip, however, in event
that it's issuance should be deemed
necessary here.
Local merchants are hopeful
that a scrip system will be placed
in use in event the bars on iSSu-
ance of currency are not lowered,

AIR PILOTS
Strike Avoided BY NRA
Labor Board

Washington, d. C. (ILNS)--A
threatened strike of $50 commercial
air pilots was averted at conference
of pilots and transport company
heads with Chairman Wagner, of the
National Labor Board.
The strike had been planned in pro-
test against new wage seal which
became effective October / and which
the fiiers contended would have meant
a reduction in wages.
The transport officials and the fiji
ers' representatives accepted a pro-
posal by Senator Wagner for an in
vestigation by fact-fnding commit
tee, and decision by the board which
would be retroactive to October /.
The committee, which will comprise
one representative each of the pilots
and employers and one impartial
member, will report to the Labor
Board within three weeks, after
which final hearing will be held by
the board.

ILLNESS
Made Big Rise Among Idle,
Survey Reveals

New York City QLNS)-Unem-
ployment resulted in an increase of
83 per cent in illness among 4,500
New York city families on the East
Side between 1880 and 1882, the New
York Association for Improving the
Condition of the Poor reports.
The findings are based upon two
surveys made by the association
through its Mulberry Health Center,
the first in 1880, at the end of the
first year of the depression and the
second in 1882, during the third year
of the depression.
In 1880 one or more persons were
found to be sick in 1,049 families, or
"a per cent of all the households re-
porting. In 1882 the number of fami-
lies with one or more persons SICK
had increased to 1,741, or 80 per cent
of all the reporting households, 81
per cent increase in the proportion OF
households reporting sickness. Pafai-
lei with these figures, there was an
increase for the same period OF %
per cent in the proportion of wage
earners' householders reporting nc
full-time work.
The relation between unemployment
and sickness is also indicated by the
fact that the sickness rate per 1,0O(
population rose from 70 in 1880 to l2s
in 1882, or 83 per cent, while the idle
ness rates increased from 1913 pei
1000 wage earners in 1880 to 289 il

The greatest sufferers from the de
preston have been children. Out o.

pared with GIL in 1880, an increase o.

BENEFITS
Paid by Trade Unions Reach
Huge Total

Washington, d. C. ILNS)-Trade
unions affiliated with the American
Federation of Labor last year paid
the astonishing total of $51 ,448,-
348,73 in death, sick, unemployment,
old age and other benefits, the A. F.
of L. executive council reported to
the annual convention here. The fig
ure represented an average expendi-
ture of $1,O00,OOO a week, and was
greatly in excess of the large total
paid in benefits in 1881.
More than $17,5O0,OOO was expend-
ed in death benefits, more than
| $2,000,000 in sick benefits, more than
$6,000,000 in old age pensions and
more than $4,000,000 in disability
benefits.
"The greatest individual benefit
payment" the executive councils
report said, twas that of unemploy-
ment benefits, total of 19,970,556.
886 having been expended in this one
form of benefit alone. This repres-
sents spirit and degree of self
sacrifice unknown in any circles other
than trade union circles. 1t repre-
sents the extent to which members
of the trade union movement have
voluntarily assessed themselves in {
substantial form to provide out-of
work benefits for their idle brothers
1t is a splendid manifestation o,
trade union sacrifice"
The total paid in benefits in 1913,
was reported to the Cincinnati con
vention last November as $39,961,
873.14.

at the labor temple, South Second
street, and the cause is the formal
opening, inspection and celebration
over the newly decorated entire in
terror Of Hamilton organized labor's
home. And to say the decorating and
remodeling has been done in fine
manner is just putting it mildly
Hamilton's labor temple on the in
terror, is without doubt one of the
most beautiful labor homes in the
country, yes, and as president OF
Trades Council, Charles Hosea, says,
and he covers more territory, the
most beautiful in the world. And
after seeing it one is inclined to agree

ton was only made possible by the

1900 hours of labor, and to the gen.
erosity of merchants and material
and supply dealers donating several
hundred dollars worth of paint, wall
paper and building material.

Plumbers, steam filters, carpenters,
painters, paperhangers, plasterers
cement finishers and electricians. The
Triangle Sign Co. painted scenery
over fireplace, and the Hamilton
Sign Co. donated sign for over the
main entrance.
The firms who donated paint are:
The Horn-Kraus Co., Hamilton Paint
and Glass Co., E. A. Ralston, Spran-
die & Son, George Harris, Duerr &
Zettler, Evans and Eversman, William

enough at best, will be determined By
the federal money appropriated b,
the next congress-" the report says.
The report points out that up tx
August 81, $3.50, 900 had been ex
pended from the $500,000,O00 fedora
relief fund made available by con
gress.
with winter before us when need
will unquestionably be greater thar
ever before, it seems probable" the
reports adds, "that the remainder OF
this federal fund will be exhausted
by February"
To meet the great need which
faces the unemployed this winter" the
executive council makes the follow
ing recommendations
1. That the American Federation OF
Labor insists on adequate relief ap-
preparations from federal funds by
congress Immediately after it's recon
vening in January, so that funds may
be available by February when it is
expected the present appropriation
will be exhausted.
2. That we insist that the surplus
agricultural product be made avail
able for distribution to the unem-
ployed.
8. That the American Federation of
Labor and all state and local fedora
tions of labor do all in their power to
educate public opinion to the immen-
sity of the relief need this year. There
is danger that taxation and appro-
priations for relief may not have the
necessary public support, since there
is widespread belief that the re-em-
ployment of millions has greatly re-
duced relief needs, and that relief
needs are therefore less than last win
ter
d. That special consideration be
given to the character of taxation
which is being passed by state gov
ernments in order to raise funds for
relief. Higher incomes and surplus
profits should be made to bear their
fair share of the burden.
