Pollution

In days long gone, Indiana's
streams flowed crystal clear,
beauty spots. that lured SWIM
mers and fishermen.
That was years ago. Today,
the rush of industry has
brought with it the ruin of
state creeks. rivers and lakes.
The old swimmin' hole is gone,
its water poisoned with acids,
its cool depths only a lure to
infection.
Stream pollution is a menace
to the health of Indiana. To
bring this serious situation be-
fore the people of the state.
The Times on Tuesday will
start series of stories on Hoo
sier rivers and lakes that have
become danger spots instead
of the places of rare beauty for
vacationists that they we're a
decade and more ago.
Read the first one in The
Times Tuesday.

GREATER POWER
Given NIB to Deal With
Recalcitrant Bosses

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-The
National Labor Board has been given
more definite status, and it's powers
and functions defined in an executive
order issued by the president. The
action is preliminary to the attor-
ney general giving consideration to
the case of Weirton Steel Co., but
leaves open the question of the ade-
quacy of the previous record on which
the attorney general is asked by
NRA to take action. The NIB has
been acting under the general terms
of Section Ia of the recovery act.
The president in his order states
that the Nib was created August S
to pass promptly on any case of
hardship or dispute that may arise
from Interpretation or application of
the presidents employment agree
ment," and prescribes that it shall
continue to adjust all industrial dis
putes, whether arising out of the in
depreciation and operation of the
PRA or any duly approved industrial
code of fair competition, and to COM
pose all conflicts threatening the
industrial peace of the country" Then
he adds that "all action heretofore
taken by this board in the discharge
of it's functions is hereby approved
and ratified"
The latter sentence is believed to
clear the way for the attorney gen
eral to proceed with the Weirton case,
and to make possible test of the
law on the record as it stands.

Labor to Continue Fight
To Change Camp Policies

The 1888 convention of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor pointed out
that certain provisions of the law
which created the Civilian Conserva-
tion Corps were not favored by la
Dor and added:
eve opposed the compensation paid
and the utilization of money appro-
priated for public buildings, for the
purpose of meeting the expenses in
cident to the establishment of these
conservation camps. 1t is the intent
and purpose of labor to continue to
urge for higher payment and for the
replacement of the funds for building
purposes which were transferred for
payment of expenses and compensa-
tion of the Civilian Conservation
Corps"

Perkins Sees Short Work
Day as Permanent Program
Advocates Limitation of Hours of Labor Part of Ten
Point Legislative Plan to Aid Wage Earners-Pre-
diets Big Benefits from Planned Recovery

Chicago (ILNS)-A ten-point pro
gram to improve conditions for the
nations wage earners was advocated
here by Secretary of Labor Perkins
in speaking before the Railway Labor
Executives Association. She sug-
gested that states lacking such laws
consider legislation on the following
points:
Permanent limitation of hours of
labor; prohibition of child labor; the
fixing of standard minimum wages
for women; requirement of safe and
healthy working conditions; provision
of aged workers; some form of un-
employment reserves; adequate work
mems compensation laws; free pub
lie employment exchanges; improved
and stronger administration of labor
laws; steps to make permanent i'm
proved labor conditions.
General adoption of such pro-
gram, Miss Perkins said, would aid
all wage earners and be of real value
to employers and all the communities
of the country as well. at would pay
dividends in production and in health
and in satisfaction to the individual
worker" she said. These points were
all suggested at a recent conference
in the Southeastern States.
The secretary said she looked for
ward to the short work day as "a
permanent program and declared that
in time industry will be maintained
permanently and regularly like rail-
roads" She predicted that the vast
internal market being created
through increased purchasing power
under the recovery program holds

adequate MIRA labor representation.
Prominent among the actions of the
convention was it's declaration of a
boycott of Germann goods and serv-
ices, in protest against Hitler's de-
struction of German democracy and
trade unionism. A feature of the con-
vention was the dedication of the
Samuel Gompers memorial. Presi-
dent Roosevelt was the chief speaker.
In the closing weeks of the year
came the Inauguration of the gov
ernment's civil works program,
which took 100000 men and women
off the public relief rolls and put
them to work. Also in the closing
weeks came the approval of scores
of MIRA codes and greater progress
in the governments public works
program, which had been slow in
getting started, failing to give the
expected employment and proving a
disappointment to its friends.

Organization of Akron
Rubber Workers Grows

Akron, Ohio.-Organization of the
rubber workers in the Akron district
into bona fide trade unions affiliated
with the American Federation of La
Dor is progressing very satisfactorily
according to Wilmer Tate, secretary
Of the Central Labor Union here.
In round figures he estimated that
in all the rubber factories in this dis
trict there were about 10000 paid-up
members of the rev unions, with
5000 more in the process of acquir-
ing full membership. He put the
membership from the B. F. Goodrich
Co. workers at between $500 and
1000 and those from Goodyear Tire
and Firestone at between 1000 and
4,500 each.

The NIB has been proceeding as
an NRA unit vested with power de-
signated and defined by Gen. John
son, and acting with his authority, to
adjust through arbitration labor dis
putes and grievances arising in con-
nection with the presidents re-em-
ployment agreement, or such indus
trial codes as have been promulgated
and approved. In recent weeks the
board has assumed more of a judi
cial status, and its authority and
powers have been directly challenged
by the Weirton Steel Co., of Pitts
burgh, and the E. G. Budd Company
of Philadelphia The Budd Company
declined to appear at a hearing on
grievances presented by its employees.
The presidents order gives NIB
a definite status of it's own and re-
moves it from the scope of unit of
NRA acting solely on power and au-
thority delegated by Gen. Johnson
and coming within his sphere as ad-
ministrator Of the recovery act.
Senator Wagner has always held
that the NIB possessed all the pow
ers now defined by the president; it
has preferred not to use those powers
in its arbitration work because vol
untary agreements were better than
decisions enforced by the government.
The Weirton and Budd cases have
forced a showdown; the president
takes this method of letting recalci-
trant employers know that there is
to be no trihing with the NIB.
BY it's retroactive features, the ex-
ecutive order confirms also the oper-
ations of the NIB i n supervising
elections and more or less outlawing
company unions.

N. Y. Department Stores
Violate the Retail Code

New York.-A delegation of the
American Booksellers Association
representing more than 1900 retail
book stores here, employing around
5000 persons, urged the New York
retail code authority to stop depart
ment stores and Similar establish
ments from selling books below cast.
The delegation claimed that certain
department stores are driving the
small booksellers to the wall' by
operating book departments as "loss
leaders" 1t was claimed that price
cutting was the general practice and
that by underselling the small stores
department stores obtain monopoly
of the book trade, and violate the
provision of the retailing code for
bidding monopolies.

Five Million Idle Will Need

which their expenditure will have

Vocational Education
Plan For CCC Camps

Washington.-Som 100000 men
in the Civilian Conservation Corps
will be provided with vocational
training to fit them for careers while
at the camps, Robert Fechner, direc-
tor of emergency conservation work,
announced. He said the plan had the
approval of President Roosevelt. The
program calls for the appointment of
,446 education advisers.
Although it was not revealed what
special connection military men have
with vocational Education, It was
stated that "the major generals
commanding the nine corps areas will
be charged with carrying out the
program"
