Gated in II States

81. Louis, Dec. 18.-(P)-With two
Kansas City men under arrest here,

mill had been located in II states and
that virtually all Of those questioned
admitted having paid sums ranging
from $500 to $500 for fraudulent IL
censes and diplomas.
The disclosures followed the arrest
Of George N. Lindsay and william T.
Gallagher, both of Kansas City, as
they appeared here to answer state
charges Of conspiracy to sell faxed
diplomas. The two men were ar
raigned on government charges Of
using the mails to defraud, and were
remanded to jail in default Of bonds.
Hearing was set for Jan. q.
According to Burt the holders Of
the licenses and diplomas reside in
Missouri, Arkansas, Iowa, Illinois,
Texas, Pennsylvania, New Jersey,
Connecticut, Wisconsin, North Da-
kota and Kentucky. He estimated

bogus licenses and diplomas, and that

ticed medicine, q few Of them doing

THE STORY OF 1884
2.-Labor Steps Into the Limelight; Relief Remains
Major Problen

rights, were the high spots Of 1884
for organized workingmen.
After years Of fostering the de-
velopment Of trade unionism, the
American Federation Of Labor in
September approved the organiza-
ton Of w'orkingmen In mass produce
ton industries by industry rather
, than by trade.
The impetus the recovery acts
collective bargaining guarantee gave
unionism brought the change In
A. F. Of =. policy.
Newly inspired to bring all Ameri-
can labor into its ranks. the fedora
ton looked to industrial unioniza-
ton of the big mass production in
dustries for start. Autos, steel and
aluminium were among the first.
Chief among the labor boards i'm
portant decisions was the majority
rule" order. The board found that
congress, when it guaranteed COL
lective bargaining rights, meant to
foster collective bargaining. To
make that bargaining successful,
the board reasoned. an employer
should deal with the representative
of all his employees. The represent
tative chosen by the majority Of a
unit of employees, it continued, should
speak for all the employees.
This ruling was bitterly contested,
and at the end Of the year was head
ing toward the supreme court for a
final decision.
The federal government played an
increasingly important part in the
dealings OF employees with their en-
ployers.
After the President asked for an
industrial truce, early in the fall, the
number OF strikes fell off.
Bank failures during 1884 reached
a new low in IA years, under the
administrations new banking laws.
Only 81 banks closed their doors in
the first IL months of the year,
treasury department figures show.
Deposits in banks affiliated with
the FEEDER al deposit insurance cor
poration mounted 81 1880 100000 from
June to October.
| Loans Guaranteed
Efforts to prime a pump which
would pour millions Of dollars Of pri-
vate capital into building projects
and thus stimulate the tagging heavy
goods industries, were continued
throughout the year.
One move toward that end was
congress guarantee Of loans made by
private financial institutions for re.
building and renovating homes. Later
the federal housing administrator
attempted to bring private capital to
the aid of low-cost housing projects.
to clear slum districts and give low
Income workers decent living quar-
tiers.
Private investment in such prof.
ects, the administration hoped, even
tually would replace public loans.
The PWA, however, continued to pour
millions into construction, and not

Washington, Dec. ls.-R)-Presi-
dent Roosevelt still faces q tremen-
dous Job in his attempt to rehabili-
tate the nations business and indus
trial machinery.
As 1884 comes to a close, government
figures show industrial employment
and payrolls are great deal higher
tnan they were when the President
took office. Similar figures, as well
as reports on dividends, show bust
ness generally Is in healthier con-
dition.
But more than 100000 persons
stnl are dependent on relief for at
least part Of their food, clothing and
shelter. The American Federation
OF Labor estimated that at the start
Of winter there were 1851 900 un-
employed workers, 100000 more than
. year before.
Future Of NRA
What should be done about NRA
ana relief? These closely related
problems are two Of the principal
new years worries at the admin
istration;S doorstep.
The recovery act expires on June
l6, 1885. What will replace it? What
has been good and what bad about
this recovery partnership among
business, labor and government?
Can NRA be expected to ease the
governments relief burden that to-
tailed more than one and one-quar-
ter billion dollars in 1894? Is the
present relief system good? How ia,
can relief work supplant direct re-
lief?
There was much tinkering will,
NRA during the past year. That
tinkering, however, largely affected
administration. The hundreds OF
codes operated throughout the yea,
essentially as framed.
Hugh S. Johnson's departure, after
q bitter battle over the issue Of
whether private business should have
. greater hand In code administration
was the high spot.
The stocky, outspoken former cav.
airy general who was NRA in it,
early stages, was replaced by an ad.
ministrative board headed by s. Clay
Williams, tobacco executive.
With a few exceptions, labor's
fight to shorten industry,s working
hours by code revision failed.
The relief administration, headed
by Harry L. Hopkins, did a gigantic
job Of caring for the needy during
the year.
Figures toward the close Of the
year showed 100000 families ant
CSC, 900 single persons on relief rolls

Morgenthau Approves
Loan Policy Report

Washington. Dec. 18.-ReSecre-
tary Morgenthau Tuesday saw help
full guidance" in . report by econ
omic investigators who. among other
things, urged that direct federal loans
to industry continue until banks lib
eralize their lending policies.
They also asked that such direct
lending by the government be unified
in single agency.
The report, made by group headed
by Dr.. Jacob Viner at the behest OF
Secretary Morgenthau and others,
also hit bank examiners and urged
new freedom Of credit in the interests
Of recovery.
MANY examiners" it said, "have
been pressing the banks to secure
drastic curtailment Of loans classified
as SLOW pretty much regardless Of
the quality Of the security and this
attitude seems to have the approval
Of many bankers.
THE situation i made worse by
the fact that some. though apparent
ly not very many, bankers have the
idea that in order to qualify Is .
good commercial loan not only must
the transaction be . self -liquidating
one, but the liquidation must occur
within some arbitrary time limit"
The policies Of the federal reserve
banks and the reconstruction finance
corporation on direct loans were crit
icized and the report urged that the
former be removed from this field.
