In the press of this great effort at
unemployment, 1t is easy to overlook
the larger purposes of this act. We
now have a clean-cut procedure for
each purpose. Immediate re-employ-

agreements, which everybody-indivi-

have a good case the code will replace
the agreement for everybody who signs
1t. That is fair enough for any public
spirited group.
Guided BY Great Leaders.
This administration is guided by
great leaders of labor on the one hand
and great leaders of industry on the
other They are actually part Of this
organization and they work here daily.
These men meet with each other and
these meetings have brought forth
among these leaders such a mutual un-
derstanding and respect as has probably
never happened before. Men like
Gerard Swope and Walter Teagle,
Alfred Sloan, Edward N. Hurley,
William Green, Edward McGrady, John
Lewis, John Frey and a dozen other
men Of that type are welded here into
as good a team as any man ever had to
do a hard job. This administration
has no more active workers or support
ers than these leaders on both sides.
Not quite so much can always be said
about some Of the things that are hap
pening out In the country. We can't
do this job in an atmosphere Of snip
ing and suspicion. There is no doubt
at all that as soon as this law was
passed some companies which had never

business. There is going to be less busi-
ness. Prices are way ahead OF purses
right now. The only way anybody has
yet suggested to get purses ahead OF
prices is the plan Of the President.
Speculative price advances are the best
way to kill the goose that lays the
golden egg and as most business men
will agree. that is pretty sickly looking
goose right now.
AS this plan begins to 60 to work we
are going to see some real business IN

automobiles, unpainted houses, shabby
shoes and clothing. rickety furniture,
threadbare rugs, I won't go through the
whole list. All that is needed to start
a food of business is to take away the
fear of unemployment and get little
money into the hands OF people that
need things and this is the way to do it.
Of course, the plan bears harder on
some people than it does on others. 30
does everything else in life. This Is not
the time to complain about that. For
the next few months the thing to do Is
to take this chance to pull out Of this
hole and to let nothing interfere with It.
For every industry or trade division
or group that feels that its case ought
to be specially considered there is a
way to have that done. All you have to
do is to sign the agreement as the
President has requested and then to
submit code of fair competition. You

because you reduce their hours and you
should generally keep the usual pay
differences as between lower and higher
paid employees And after August 81 you
will not work children under 16 years

That is all there is to it. There are
a few other rules for special cases, but
to nearly everybody listening in, that is
the giSt of it.
1t means that you will have to employ
more people to do the same amount of
work and that will increase your cost Of
doing business. OF course, the consum-
ing public will eventually pay for this

creased costs. Somebody says that is
an indefinite rule. Everybody knows
what his costs are. There is nothing
indefinite about a request from the
raising. Everybody knows what that
means, too. 1t is simple and easy to be
fair.
Of course, there are ways to beat the
rules of any game We know what they
are We are not issuing any regulations
about that. We are just asking people
in this crisis in very general terms. to
rise above these cheap little ingenuities
and to join with the President to beat
the depression and not to beat the rules
of the game.
Price Raising Business.
On this price-raising business there Is
another thought. 1t is lot easier to
secure profits through bigger business
than it is through higher prices. In
spite of the very best the President may
be able to plan and his men to carry out
his plans, if We don't get purchasing
power to the proper level and do it
now, there isn't going to be any bigger

a second division outfit, not
only won a pennant in impress

Topping all the accomplishments
of the year in any branch of COM

triumph of Jack Lovelock over Bill
Bonthron at Princeton in the world

for his thorough mopping up of all
the tennis stars, seems entitled to
second honors, with third place
voted to Carl Hubben for the shut
out aspect of his seasons record i'll
pitching New York into a National
League championship.
With the fair sex largely limited
in their activities to swimming, golf
and tennis, it seems to us the palm
for outstanding performance for the
year should go to Lenore Kight,
who smashed half a dozen or SO of
the wofld swimming marks estab-
lished the year before by Helene
Madison, since turned pro, with Vir-
ginia Van VIE runner-up through

M Contrary to the widespread
u foot ball belief that the de-
fense has the advantage
under existing rules, Clark Daniel
Shaughnessy, University Of Chicago
head coach, is convinced the offense
has all the better of it nowadays,
providing 1t makes full use Of op-
portunities.
"In my opinion, the offense has
so much more advantage over the
defense in modern foot ball that
1t isn't even close" said Shaugh-
messy during visit here. Frankly,
I can't see where there's even room
for argument. Other factors, such
as manpower. being anywhere near
equal, the team in possession OF the
ball should have the other side
guessing nine-tenths Of the time.
1.-THE chief reason why you hear
so much about defensive dominance
is that most offensive operations
have become too standardized; 50

Both Little and Kopf had their day

played tackle on Bob Folwells Pennsyl-

worrier and pessimist, but no one pays
any attention.
