WASHINGTON, Feb. 81. - "Only
such an inclusive bill as the Workers
Unemployment and Social Insurance
Bill Oh. r. 1899, can meet the urgent
need Of the present, Mary VanKleek,
director Of Industrial Studies Of the
Russell Sage Foundation, on behalf Of
the organizing Committee Of the pro-
feSsional workers As5oHia ton, testi-
fled late this afternoon before the
House Labor Committee considering
cocial legislation.
Well-Known Professionals Sign
The appearance of Mary Van
Kleeck, demanding the enactment of
the Unemployment and Social IN
surance Bill was preceded by a tele-
gram from the Professional Workers
Group, calling for its enactment,
which was signed by professionals
well known in their fields, including
college professors, social workers,
architects, writer's, etc. Those sign
ing the telegram included Dorothy
| w. Douglas, Joseph Gilman, Jennie
Berman, Mary Boretz, Eleanor Colt,
EStelle Cooper. Jacob Fisher, Nor
decai Gorelick, Louis Hacker, E.
I Lonberg-F olm, Maxwell Hyde, C..
Theodore Larson, Max Lerner, Cora
fisherman, Katherine D. Lumpkin,
Lois Macdonald, Eugaue Schcen,
Jules E. Korchien and Ernestine L..
Friedman.
Mary Van Kleeck's Speech
Mary Van Kleeck, in her speech
before the L'bor Comm tee, gave six
reasons WHY the professional workers
support the Workers Bill, declaring
that 1t meets the needs of large num-
bers Of industrial workers, who have
gone on record for the bill in their
unions. etc.; that the bill includes all
unemployed workers; that It pro-
vides for the funds to come from
taxation on large incomes, thus
serving to bring about the much
needed new distribution of con-
Suners' purcha sing power by diver
sion from investments to current pur-
che ses";; that T. laws no burden on
the earni1rs of the workers; 1t sets
no time limit upon receipt of COM
persation; it would operate at once
and not wait a 1onT period for &C
cur'ulation of reser-ns, and that l.
will be administered by the workers
and farmers.
Gives Perkins FIGURES
The government figures issued by
the DEPARTMENT of Io'~or on Feb. 20,
Yesterday, were cited by Mary Van
Kleeck to show that the unemolov-
ment crisis car be overcome only by
the PASSAGE of the bill. These fir
ures show he index Of unemploy-
ment In manufacturing In January
as only 693 per cent, and payrolls
only 49.A per cent, taking the average
for 1926 as 100. In r"n-mo"''fac-
turing the figures are even more
alarming" she declared.
These figures make 1t clear, Mary
Van Kleeck stated, 'that industry is
not taking back workers fast enough

accompanying dist IS for Amo~'can

Just why were Comrade MiShkin
and I refused admittance to the spe-
cial membership meeting OF the

Rand School tonight? For the simple
reason that we in the League have
fought for the united front; because
as rank and file members OF the
League we realized that now the urge
and need for unity Is more imperative
than ever before. especially In view
OF what has happened In Austria
during the last week. Due to the
fact that we have been fighting for
unity we went there tonight.

Japan In New Provocation
NEW YORK-Japan has begun a

made incredible even to capitals:

by declaring that Japanese leaders
in Manchuria are becoming alarmed
over the possibility tina Russia may
initiate hostilities against Japan and
