people, placed in their care and keep
ing in all good faith and confidence,
must stop speculating with these en-
trusted funds. 1t seems quite clear
that public opinion will crystalline in
favor of some form of guarantee
which will cause the average citizen,
who it is conceded is uniformed re-
garding the science of banking, finan-
cial technicalities and intricacies, to
feel confident that his savings placed
in banks organized under govern
mental control are supervised by the
government and are safe and secure.
Labor Worst Hit
''The acute, chaotic financial condi-
ton which resulted in closing the
banks of the nation has served to fur
ther aggravate the distressing unem-
ployment situation which has pre-
vailed for more than three years. I'M
employment has now reached the
highest point and the probabilities
are that it will be further increased
This means that labor, the masses of
the people, tohse who work for wages
are the victims of the financial crash
who suffer most. The inconvenience
caused to those who still possess
means because the cash they have is
not available for immediate use is
nothing in comparison to the suffer
ing of millions of unemployed whose
savings were long ago exhausted and
who, with their families, are now de-
pendent upon the relief agencies of
the nation.
Labor is facing these economic
facts bravely but with feelings of
resentment and bitterness because
they are convinced that the suf-
fering which they are forced to
undergo is due largely to the
mismanagement of those in con-
troll of the financial and indus
trial institutions of the nation
"In this crucial period through
which the nation is passing we behold
deadly parallel in the policy pur-
sued and in the action taken by the
management of our financial institu-
tions and much of the management
of the industrial organizations of the
nation. Those in control of banks, as
we'll as those in control of industry,
have followed false, unsound and un-
ership of industry and of financial in
stitutions which gave them control in
shaping and directing the policies of
both banks and industry, they must
accept responsibility for the mistakes
which they have made and for the
social and industrial injury which has
resulted therefrom.
Management Has Failed
"The ownership of banks and of in
dustry originate policies and execute
them. Labor serves; it gives of its
training, efficiency, skill and labor.
It has not failed because it has
reached high point of efficiency. 1t
is management and those who own
and control banks and industry which
has failed. The whole procedure, the
outcome of it all, the economic dis
location which has occurred, offers a
challenge to capitalism and to the
management of privately owned in
stitutions.

Calling For Strong Organization Of Workers,
Labor Head Declares market Destroying"
Policies Of Banking and Industrial Interests
Have Brought Nation to Chaotic Condition.

Wilkes-Barre, Pa. (ILNS)-Scoring
the "wage-cutting, market-destroy-
ing" policies of industry since the de-
preston began, President William
Green, of the American Federation
of Labor, declared here that the in
terests in control of banks, as well
as in control of industry, have fol-
lowed false, unsound and uneconom-
ic" policies which have brought our
social order to the verge of collapse.
Mr.. Green spoke at a dinner given
by the Wilkes-Barre Central Labor
Union.
Throughout his address, Mr.. Green
emphasized the necessity of organi-
zation and declared he had no hesi-
fancy in asserting that if the work
ers in all lines of industry had been
thoroughly organized, the universal
wage cutting policy which has been
pursued would have been stopped and
industry itself saved from demoral-
ization.
'The terrible experience through
which the nation has been passing
during the past three years and espe-
cially within the last 80 days has
served to teach laboring people many
lessons" Mr.. Green said. He con-
tinued: "We have learned much and
/ am sure that labor will appropriate
to itself all the benefits and value of
the essons learned. The financial
chaos into which the nation was
plunged and which called for most
drastic action on the part of the
chief executive of the United States
presents a tragic climax to many
years of unprecedented prosperity
and an orgy of speculation which was
permitted to go on unrestrained by
those who control the credit struc-
ture and the credit facilities of the
nation.
"The crash which came, imperiling,
as it did, the safety of the nation,
reflected upon the architects of our
financial structure, the banks of the
nation and those who shaped, con-
trolled and directed banking policies.
Only the application of heroic rem
edies has served to save the banks of
the nation from utter collapse and
the people of the country from ire
parable loss and increasing human
distress.
Bank Legislation Demanded
"The events which have transpired
with startling rapidity have inspired
people to inquire as to the success,
soundness and practicability of capi-
talism and of the private ownership
and control of banks and banking in
stitutions. At the moment there is a
growing demand for the enactment of
legislation which will provide for in
creasing governmental control over
banks and over the management of
banks. The people are demanding
that when their funds are placed in
the banks for safekeeping and con-
venient use said funds must not be
dissipated by speculation. They are
demanding that banks be restricted
to service, and that they exercise
banking functions rather than to en-
gage in investment and speculative
fields.
"The time has come when those who
are entrusted with the money of the

Dark Picture Painted

Our social order on the verge of
collapse-almost thirteen million un-
employed-many millions more par
TALLY unemployed-50 per cent of our
population suffering and billions of
values completely wiped out-homes
lost-mortgages foreclosed - small
business men forced into receiver
ships-our public school system prac-

menaced in others, and greatly i'm
paired throughout the entire nation
confidence destroyed-fear influencing
individuals and communities - the
tramp of millions of unemployed
workers seeking employment. This
picture would be incomplet if we fail
to bring into it the millions of under
fed, under-nourished, under privileged
children whose impaired vitality and
lowered physical standard will be

warning, and in every instance en-

PEELED by sheer force to do so. Many
industrial managers now admit that
a mistake was made, that wage cut
ting must stop and that the wrong
which has been done must be repaired
through a restoration of buying
power The buying power of wage
earners was $22, ,729, 100000 less in
1882 than in 1929. This represents
the reduced buying power of the
masses of the people after having
made an allowance for whatever re-
duction in the cost of living has taken
place.

Entire Alien Deportation
Force Thrown Out By Perkins
Reason Given is That Appropriation is Exhausted New
Labor Department Chief Takes Dramatic Swing
Record Set Under DOak Last Year.

Washington, D. c. (ILNS)-The
division of the department of labor
that last year set record for de-
portations under Secretary of Labor
Doak was abolished this week with
one big sweep by Secretary Frances
Perkins.
Eighty-one persons lost their jobs,
according to the first check-up.
The division now abolished was in
charge of enforcement of the immi-
grafton act, and its cost was covered
in Section "a of the immigration law,
lump sum having been fixed.
1t is said that Secretary Perkins
never was in sympathy with the de-
portation of aliens, and the more
readily seized the opportunity to bring
about the destruction of the force.
Aliens illegally in the United States,
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1933-03-24

aliens charged with moral turpitude
and all aliens charged with any of
fense under the immigration law,
came under jurisdiction of the division
now wiped out. A natural result will
be an immediate loosening of the SUI
pervision over aliens and stoppage
of the check-up on aliens illegally
in the United States
1t is said the work at ports of
entry will not be affected, but just
what steps, if any, can now be taken
or will be taken regarding aliens
smuggled in is a matter causing some
speculation in Washington
The American Federation has gone
on record for strict enforcement of
the law, it is believed, look with dis
favor upon the first important act of
the new secretary.

LEGISLATIVE RUBBISH

One Of the crying needs Of the pres.
emit day is the searching out and repeating
of the useless, unenforceable and umeces-
sary legislative rubbish according to NJ
j. Hickey, secretary of the National Indus
trial Council
At a conference held in New York,
Re council pledged itself to labor for the
simplification and ccdification of really
useful and necessary laws, which are now
buried or obscui ed throughout our law
books by mass of obsolete or unneces-
sary enactments.
Mr. Hickey declared that there are
now about 100000 separately enacted
laws and ordinances on the books of the
various states More than 10000 more
will be enacted during 1888.
1t is his belief, and most. Key Westegs
will concur i'm his views. that too many of
our lawmakers conceive ii to be their duty
to make misd1meanors out of trivial ae-
tons. putting absurd restrictions on free
dom. burdening innocent people with nn-
deserved punishments and otherwise load
ing the sta4e books with Unnecessary Laws.
When we reflect that most of these
useless laws not only harass the public but
cost them handsomely in one way and
another. it must be the inevitable con-
clusion that Dir. Hickey's point is well
taken.

THE BIGGEST MONEYS WORTH

Suppose you had th1rtei husky men
ready to do your bidding en- an instar+ !,
notice, tireless men able to do almost any,
thing-turn cranks, pull ropes, drill holes,
pump water, saw wood, operate sewing
machines, mixers, FANS light your hcne,
cook your food and, if you wish i, carry
your voice around the world.
Best of ALL the total wage you would
have to pay these men for an hours work
is less than the cost of a package of
cigarettes, a shoe shine, or the price of adj
mission to your neighborhood movie
theater.
This sounds like glamorous impos-
sibility from the tales of Scheherazade, but
it is statement of fact from the New Jer-
sew Public Utility Information Committee.
You can have these men--not in the flesh,
of course, but their labor. You call it a
kilowatt hour, and you secure it by push
ing button or closing switch, 1t is al
ways ready to act, and it never sleeps or
gets i'll or falls down on the job. 1t is as
efficient at the end of the day as at the
beginning And it doesn't want vacations.
This little illustration symbolizes the
electric age A klowatt hour of electric
energy costs few pennies and, as has been
said, it is equivalent tic the combined eff
forts of thirteen huskies for an hour. It's
the biggest moneys worth on the market.

"sWING TO THE RIGHT"
Times, Hailey, Idako)

The panic is passing. The hard TINES
ar, practically worn out. The derression
is fading away. Light is breaking through
the clouds. Scraps CT the silver liniag are
clearly in sight. Proof of radical improve
ment in business in industry, comes in from
every side. It is in the air; it is in the con-
seriousness Of men everywhere. The worst
is over and prosperity is coming back
Psychology is wonderful thing,-a
tremendous force. When everybody gets
into the way OF thinking that certain things
are to happen, they will happen and that IS
all there is to it. Just now everybody is
making up his mind that the business de-
preston is over, that there is to be radical
change. When that state of minG becomes
fixed prosperity will be back.
Already business men are perking up;
timid souls have quit shivering; wage earn
ers are going back on the payrolls; smoke
stacks are beginning to belch wheels are
beginning to hum; money is coming out
from under the rubbish; hope and courage
and determination are reviving.
All that is needed now is for every
boGy to swing to the right. When the way
is dark, the road uncertain, the careful, eX-
perienced drive will swing to the right 1t
is good rule. 1t has prevented many a
crash. And if it is a good rule in driving,
it is good rule in every other activity in
life. If everybody will swing to the right
and keep moving, the road will be kept
OPEN there will be no jam, no crash. The
natural current of business, industry, COM
merce, will find its natural cha, mel. The
panic will be over, normal prosperity will
be an established fact.
Depression is very largely state of
mind. Cut it out and all will be well.
