Monaghan Is A
Fighter For
Soldiers Rights

Congressman Jos. P. Monaghan,
during the past two years in congress,
maintained his pledges to the exserv-
ice men by fighting consistently for
their rights, according to the demo-
cratic state central committee. Mr..
Monaghan, whose attitude was largely
dictated by patriotism and his belief
of what was right, voted against the
reduction of veterans benefits, voted
for the payment of adjusted compen-
sation certificates, yer voting to
override the presidents veto of that
measure. He feels it to be but only
fair that the government compensate
to some small degree the ex-service
men for the sacrifices made by them
in leaving home and position and in
fighting in the trenches for a mere
pittance while those more fortunate
remained behind living in ease and
safety.

FACTORY JOBS AND WAGES DROP
CONTRARY TO USUAL SEASONAL TREND

WASHINGTON.-FP)- Sharp de-
creases in September employment and
payrolls, as reported by the U. S. Bur-
eau OF Labor Statistics, give warnings
of a hard winter ahead for labor. In
manufacturing industries the number
OF jobs dropped by AZ per cent while
even worse wage losses were shown
by a decline of 6.S per cent in pay
rolls from the level of August.
The Textile strike was responsible
for 80 per cent of the decrease in man
ufacturing employment, Secretary Of
Labor Frances Perkins stated at her
press conference Oct. 10. But wen
if there had been no strike, she adj
mitted, there would still have been a
drop in manufacturing jobs in a month
which has consistently shown seasonal
increases every year since 1920.
Some seasonal Improvement in non
manufacturing industries, however
counterbalanced many Of the losses in
the manufacturing industries. If there
had been no textile strike, Miss Per
kins claimed, an actual increase in jobs
of 10000 in both branches of industry
combined might have been shown, in
stead of a loss of 10000 jobs.
In reporting an estimated decrease
OF 100000 in textile employment dur
ing September, the Secretary of La
Dor said that this did not necessarily
reflect the number on strike, which
was acknowledged to be many more.
Decreases in employment and pay
rolls we're shown in both the durable
and non-durable goods groups of man
ufacturing. In the non-durable group,
to which textiles belong, employment
dropped OIL per cent and payrolls 40
per cent. But even the durable group,
unaffected by the strike, show employ
ment declining % per cent and pay
rolls as much as 88 per cent.
The index of factory employment in
September was So per cent below that
of September, 1888, while the payroll
index wa 2 per cent lower.
The iron and steel, hardware, auto
mobile and beet and shoe industries
showed the biggest declines between
August and September. OF non-manu-
featuring industries, 7 showed an in
crease in employment and II a de-
crease. Anthracite mining and retail
trade led in the gain.

CIX hundred years ago the Turkish Sultan,
- Orkhan, decided to force the many Chris
tian prisoners he held to espouse the precepts
of Mahomet and to prove their allegiance he
forced the prisoners to join the army. They
were formed into special corps known as the
Janizaries, Turkish word meaning new army.
In the first 80 years of its existence this corps
grew until its numbers totaled 10000. During
that period, the bravery Of the young soldiers
won for the Janizaries an enviable reputation.
Their heroism became famous. In fact so

J0|NT COMMITTEE
MEETING PLANNED
TO GET P. v. A. AID
$40, 900, 1000 Sought for
Local Improvement
Program.
SPECIFIC AUTHORITY
| OF CONGRESS NEEDED
Funds Could Be Used for Tuber-
culosis Hospital and Other
Projects.

Tentative plans have been made
for a joint meeting Of the House and
Senate District Committees Tuesday
morning to take up the King Norton
bill to authorize the District Com
missioners to negotiate with the
Public Works Administration for
s2O,OOO,OOO improvement program for
urgent local projects.
The District government cannot
borrow money without specific auth
ority Of Congress, and the purpose of
the bill is to enable them to accept
public works funds on the terms laid
down in the national recovery act.
namely, 80 per cent as a Federal
grant and 70 per cent on loan basis
TO be repaid over a period of years.
The funds could be used to build
new tuberculosis Hospital, for some
urgently needed school buildings, for
construction work deemed essential
at the Lorton Reformatory, a new
building at Gallinger Hospital, to
SS- - S~"NeN AA7tIOc14 pldIlbI anu "
begin the first unit Of the Municipal
Center. If the full program cannot
be obtained, the bill would allow the
Commissioners to determine the rela-
tive Importance Of these projects In
deciding which should be undertaken
on a smaller allotment.
As introduced the bill sought TO
provide for the ALLEGATION of up to
S2,000000 Of the total for continuing
the park and playground purchase
program started under the Capper-
Cramton law, but the bill gave the
Commissioners the discretion to de-
eide whether any Of the money should
be allotted for park purposes. The
National Capital Park and Planning
Commission, at a meeting attended
by Senator King, decided, however, to
urge that the park program be re-
sumed and carried on under the
Capper- -Cramton law, without tying
that law up with the pending public
works bill. Amendments to accom-
plish this policy probably will be dis
cussed when the committees meet.

White HOUSE HEARS
MARINE WORKERS
Presidents Secretary Receives
Delegation Protesting Relief
Methods in Baltimore.

Seven representatives of the Marine
Workers Union and Unemployed Coun-
cils filed complaints today with Mar
vim H. Mcintyre, secretary to Presi-
dent Roosevelt, against the manner in
which relief is administered along the
Baltimore waterfront.
Walter j. Stack, spokesman for the
group, expressed disappointment that
they were unable to see the President
and intimated that another visit
would be made to the White House
in an effort to get an audience with
him.
Meanwhile, the remainder of the 80
marine workers who hiked to Wash
ington to present their grievances to
the White House and the Federal
Emergency Relief Division were back
home, according to dispatches from
Baltimore. They returned last night
in busses provided by Harry L. Hop
kins relief administrator.
The principal complaint of the
marine workers, whose march to the
Capital was sponsored by the Water
front Unemployed Council of Balti-
more, a Communist organization, was
against the handling of relief by the
Maryland administrator. Until re-
Gently. it was pointed out, the marine
workers administered their own relief.
but the program was taken over a few
days ago by the Maryland admin
astration.
