STUDIES
WORK INSURANCE
May Recommend Action by
Congress on Plan Now
Under Consideration.

BY the Associated Press.
A strong possibility that President
Roosevelt might make recommendation
to Congress for job insurance legislation
was seen today as the outcome Of a plan
now before him for study.
Deeply interested in the principle Of
employment insurance, Mr. Roosevelt
studied its possibilities during his ad-
miniStration as Governor of New York.
He conferred upon the outlines of such a
plan with the Governors of surrounding
States and was known to have ap-
proved it.
Albert L. Deane, president Of the
General Motors Holding Corporation,
and John j. RaSkob, former chairman
of the Democratic National Committee,
were closeted with Mr.. Roosevelt for two
hours yesterday upon a proposal ad-
vanced by the former for the creation
Of q central insurance fund. The Deane
plan would build up its central fund
through payments by industry in pros
porous times. In periods Of depression
1t would be used to care for the unem-
ployed.
Federal Law Is Sought.
Deane suggested to the President that
some such proposal as he offered be
backed as a Federal proposition by ap-
propriate legislation.
Although not present at the White
House conference, Senator Wagner,
Democrat, Of New York, chairman of
the National Labor Board, indicated to
newspaper men that he would reintro-
duce an employment insurance bill into
the coming Congress. 1t would be in
tended, he intimated, to add to the
labor provision Of the national recov-
cry act.
"is an essential thing in this whole
problem of the distribution Of wealth !"
Although Mr.. Roosevelt let it be
known yesterday that he was reserving
his opinion upon the plan offered by
Deane, he called in some Of his most
interested aides to discuss the sugges-
ton. Those taking part were Hugh S.
Johnson, recovery administrator; Harry
L. Hopkins, relief administrator, and
Turner Battle, Assistant Secretary Of
Labor.
In an interview, Wagner also ex-
pressed a belief that the doctrine of
freedom of contract justified his idea
that American workmen we're entitled
W CICNO llICu IOl W.
lective bargaining without employer in
terference. He said freedom of con-
tract exists only when equalization of
bargaining power exists"
Sees Government Duty.
Its the duty of the Government to
see that there is freedom of contract"
he added.
From its inception, the Labor Board
has insisted upon elections, board
supervised, to determine whether the
workers wanted a company union or q
national union when that point was
disputed. Dozens were held before the
Weirton Steel Co. and the E. G. Budd
Co. refused to permit them at their
plants.
Freedom of contract has been a fac
tor in decisions in many major labor
cases carried to the courts in the past.
Wagner used as an instance a New
YORK State law forbidding women to
work at night in factories which
court held unconstitutional because it
took away the women's right to con-
tract to work at any time they pleased.

Efforts of the United States Flag As
sociation to forestall the sale at public
auction in New York next week of the

ure today. when the Safe Deposit &

The association through Col James

to the trust company to cancel its ad-
vertiSed plan of selling the manuscript
at auction January in an effort to pre-
clude the possibility of the historic writ

which would make impossible its public

Of the Henry Walters estate, owners Of
the manuscript, set reasonable price
on the document and sell 1t privately.
It was suggested that efforts be made
to have the Congress at the coming ses-
sion appropriate money for the purchase
of the manuscript SO that it would come
into the possession Of the American
people. Failing this, the flag association
said 1t would by popular subscription
raise the required funds, to buy it, and
present the document to the Library of
Congress.
Col. Moss Issues Protest.
When these suggestions were turned
down by the trust company, the asso-
citation, through Col. Moss, issued a
protest in which it characterized the
scheduled auction as IAN iconoclastic
act of Grass commercialism that capi-
talizes patriotic emotion and prosti-
tutes national sentiment"
In connection with the protest the
Flag Association made the following
appeal: I'VE entreat loyal Americans Of

Since Vessels There
Act Alone.

Newspaper headlines asserting that

Cuban waters, ready to act in the event
