CAPPER URGES
PENSIONS FOR
D. {. AGED
Senator Praises New D. C.
Heads; Asks Schools Pro-
tected Against Liquor

Indorsing the appointment OF
the two new District Commission
ers and expressing the hope that
"the best possible law" on liquor
control here will be worked out,
Senator Arthur Capper (R) Of
Kansas, ranking minority member
of the Senate District Committee,
today issued his first public utter.
ances on prospective legislation for
the District at the coming session
of Congress.
The Senator was emphatic in his
advocacy of "a model old-age Sc
curity law for the District" as
serting that he hopes to see such
legislation enacted at the coming
session.
Praises D. C. Heads
In expressing approval of the
new Commissioners, the Kansan
said
Il think these choices are
very happy ones. / know both
gentlemen personally, and have
the very highest regard for
them"
He complimented Commissioner
Hazen on his years of important
and valuable service" to the Dis
trict, and Mr.. Allen on the "evi-
dence of his ability. especially in
his direction of civil works activi-
ties" He added:
81 believe these appointments
will be most beneficial to the
people of the District"
Has No Liquor Plan
Asserting that he is not COM
mitted to any specific plan Of
liquor control for the Capital, Sem
ator Capper said:
II think that such legislation
should be given careful study
and that residential, school and
church areas should be fully
protected against the sale of
liquor in their respective vicini-
ties.
"It is quite evident that the
repeal of national prohibition
certainly has not ended the
liquor problem"
He said, in discussing the old
age pension proposal, that it has
always seemed to him that CIV
ilization has fallen down badly if
it can devise no better way to oro-
tect the worker in his old age than
by sending him to poorhouse."
Touching on the District budget
problem, the Kansas Senator said
he hopes the budget will make
sufficient provision for our public
schools and for all other necessary
District services"

CLERKS To WAR
ON ECONOMY
PROGRAM
Irked at Delay in Revision of
Pay Cut, They Plan to
Extend Campaign
By DUNCAN FORSYTH

Government workers, disap-
pointed that the Presidents pay
cut decision was not announced
for Christmas, and informed now
that the cost of living survey will
not even reach him until Satur-
day, are expected to launch a
vigorous campaign in the coming
session of Congress for the repeal
of economy legislation generally.
According to current informa-
ton, the President will not act
hastily on the pay cut question
after he receives the living costs
survey. His views must be made
known, however, by January 10,
at the latest, if any change is to
be made in the pay cut for the
next six months, inasmuch as fur
ther delay would make it impos-
sible to adjust the payrolls to
provide for the change.
The President yesterday wrote
Secretary of Labor Perkins sug-
costing that the living costs re-
port he transmitted to him at the
earliest convenient moment.
There were indications today
that the President might leave the
entire matter up to Congress, in
which connection Speaker Henry
T. Rainey said Congress undoubt'
edly would restore the salaries to
their basic rates.
Liberal Policy Seen
There is a general feeling that
President Roosevelt is disposed
to be liberal toward Government
employees, and Senator Pat Har-
rison Cd, of Mississippi, a pow
erful Administration figure, has
expressed that view publicly.
Also, the growing feeling that
the Government should take the
lead in upholding NRA principles
has been strongly bulwarked by
the Governments own attitude
that CWA wages should conform
to prevailing wages in the local
tiles where CWA workers are en-
ployed.
Under these circumstances, Fed
eral employees contend, the Gov
ernment can hardly draw a line
of demarcation between employees
of the regular Federal establish
ment and those of the emergency
organizations to the disadvantage
of the former.
Economy Is Target
Whatever the President may do,
there will be concerted demand
by Government workers in Con-
gress for cessation Of the entire
economy program, from present
indications.
Government workers are dis
posed to favor campaign against
economy measures generally on
the ground that they have dis
rupted necessary Federal func-
tions. It is pointed out that
the economy program had to be
modified almost at its inception
by the employment of public
works funds to carr on essential
governmental activities, and that
later there has been further modi.
flcation through the use of CWA
funds for the same purpose.

1884 TAGS
Maryland Commissioner Cuts
Red Tape so 1900 Children
Can Get Transportation

Slashing it's own administrative
red tape, the office of the Mary
land Commissioner of Motor We
hicles yesterday issued 1884 tags
t the IS Prince Georges County
school buses without Nicholas
Orem, superintendent of schools,
filing a certificate" of insurance
with the commissioner.
Two days ago Orem announced
he would go to the courts, if
necessary, to fight rule that he
file certificate with the board.
The commissioner, E. Austin
Baughman, previously had re-
fused to accept the insurance pol
icies as evidence that the buses
were insured. Yesterday, how
ever, when the policies were pro-
duced, the commissioner made a
note of their presence to satisfy
his own administrative routine.
The superintendent threat to
carry the case to court would
have tied up all the busses, which
carry $500 children to schools
throughout the county.

Representation in NRA Units
Urged by Negro Board

Representation Of Negroes on
the consumers advisory board,
the labor advisory board and the
industrial advisory board of the
NRA, and greater opportunities
for Negroes in the United States
Civil Service are recommended
by the Negro Advisory Commit
tee of the advisory and planning
council of the Departmnt of Com
merce, made public today.
The report traces Negro actiyi-
ties in various lines and in
respect to business cites life in
surance as the largest and most
extended of Negro business enter
prises. Several Negro insurance
companies got into difficulties
during the economic crisis be-
cause when payrolls began to
be cut Negroes were the first to
be let out. Naturally, they were
unable to pay premiums, and
some insurance companies failed.
Such failures, however, have
been few compared with insur-
ance failures generally, the COM
mittee says. and it points out that
IL such companies, receiving less
than $19,0OO,O00 in premiums,
gave jobs to 5000 Negro en-
ployes.
Two million Negroes are farm
ers, the report says, and they
should have greater representa-
tion on boards and committees
in the communities where they
live. There should be more Negro
county agents and specialists, it
lis contended, and a thorough in
vestigation Of Negro farming.

BUSINESS LEADERS
STUDYING WORK BILL
Problem of Forming Trade Asso-
Citations to Control Industry Is
Being Discussed Here.
By the Associated Press.


The industrial regulation bill now
before Congress has stirred business
leaders as has no other legislation Of
the present session.
The Office of Hugh S. johnson, who
Is doing preliminary coordinating work
pending appointment as administrator
OF industry when the bill is passed. has
been literally Swamped with inquiries
from all parts of the country for inter-
pretations OF the legislation. Mean
while, he has been in New York all
week comforting with major executives
Of leading industries which are expected
to lead the way in putting into opera
ton the cooperative agreements among
trade associations which have been de-
scribed as the most vital step for in
dustry In the last so years.
Here in Washington the Chamber OF
Commerce Of the United States and the
National Association OF Manufacturers
have been studying the proposed legiSla-
ton closely and informing their mem
bers about its workings as outlined at
present.
In response to inquiries which have
been pouring in since President Roose-
yelt's suggestion of a partnership" be-
tween Government and business and the
sending Of the bill to Congress. the
manufacturers trade body has compiled
a tentative outline of how trade asso-
Citations should prepare to meet the new
situation and how unorganized indus
tries should establish associations.
Under the terms Of the bill these asso-
Citations would occupy place Of domi-
nance un-thought-of a few years ago
and it will be through them that the
industries viii come together to regulate
wages, hours Of work and stsbilize pro-
