MENACE To MIRA
R|SES|N STEEL
AND TEXTILES
Labor Threats Chief Peril TO
Summer Recovery Plans;
Administration Fears
BY GEORGE r. HOLMES
BY International News Service

Major strikes in the steel and
textile industries stood out today
as the gravest menace to continued
national recovery during the sum-
mer.
The Administrator hopes they
can be averted. But it is by no
means certain they can be, and
officials from President Roosevelt
down are frankly worried.
Strikes in these major industries,
affecting upward of a million
workers, coupled with labor unrest
in other industries, would just
about dispel any hopes for recoV-
cry progress during the summer.
Hopes in Peril
The Administration has been
pinning its hopes on this summer
to witness a real advance along the
industrial and business front. II
the threatened strikes materialize.
the summer will witness a retreat
instead of an advance.
The steel workers want union
recognition and collective bargain
ing. The textile workers want the
NRA to rescind an order permit
ting a IS per cent reduction in
operations.
They contend it amounts to a
Is percent wage cut. They are
willing to see operations curtailed,
but not at the EXPENSE of pay en-
velopes.
Menace To PWA
The threatened steel strike is
causing Administration officials
the most worry. For the steel and
automobile industries have been
leading the parade toward ma
tional recovery, and a steel strike
would automatically cripple the
automotive industry.
Moreover, steel strike would
just about ham-string the Public
Works program, which after many
delays is scheduled to get into full
swing during the summer. The
Administration has been counting
upon this program to absorb
million unemployed.
The dicision of Federal Judge
John P. Nields at Wilmington, re-
fusing an Injunction against the
Weirton Steel Company. because
of its refusal to permit the Govern
ment to supervise a workers elec-
ton, was a severe blow to the
NRA.

Despite Conference Deadlock,
Governor White Sees
Early Settlement
By JAMES L. KILGALLEN

BY JAMES l.. h1LGALLEN
TOLEDO. Ohio, May 80 G.N.s).
Governor George White Of Ohio
today told International News
Service:
T don't think the general
strike in Toledo will come Off"
Talk of a general strike is the
topic of the hour in Toledo,
where 1000 national guard troops
are guarding the plant of the
Electric Auto-Lite, scene of last
weeks rioting, when two men
were shot and killed, and many
persons injured.
Farley DeadIocked
Negotiations by the Federal
m e d iation group, headed by
Charles P. Taft, designed to bring
an end to the Electric Auto-Lite
strike and avert general walk
out, have reached a deadlock.
with neither side showing any in.
dication of giving way.
Governor White revealed that
he has stepped into the picture
and intends to play a leading
role in the labor troubles which
are causing so much unrest and
trepidation in Toledo.
Plant to Remain Closed
The governor held a long con-
ference Tuesday in Columbus with
c. O.. Miniger, president of the
Electric Auto-Lite Company, and
j. Arthur Minch, vice president.
After the conference the governor
Indicated the Auto-Lite plant would
be closed indefinitely pending
settlement of the strike. The gov
ernor declined to say how long
the troops would remain on duty
in Toledo. That would depend.
he indicated. upon developments.
A proposal for nonStriking
workers at the Auto-Lite plant to
be laid off and strikers returned
to their jobs pending arbitration
was rejected at meeting of the
nonstriking employees with COM
pany officials and Federal repre-
SentatiVes.

LOS ANGELES
OFFICIALS TO
FACE PROBE

LOS ANGELES, Dec. II. U,P)-
Charges that city officials since
1917 have wasted" more than
$1,OO0,OO0 on patent paving con-
tracts, plunged the county grand
jury today into an intensive inves-
tigation to determine if criminal
action would be instituted.
Grant Cooper, deputy district at
torney, said evidence at hand
showed officials either were hood
winked or bribed into purchasing
patent materials by PAYERS resort
ing to subterfuge.
Naturally we expect to find evi-
oence of bribes paid by paving
manufacturers to city officials, -
Cooper said. But if we can eradi-
cate this waste of funds both the
jury and our office will be salts
fled"
According to Cooper, original
patents on materials sold the city
expired in 1917. To renew the pat
ents and retain their rich business
with the city, manufacturers added
certain ingredients to their mix"
which actually weakened the pave
ment, the grand jury was told The
new composition was said to be no
better than standard materials
which sell at lower costs.
Cooper said the jury planned to
summon every councilman and sup
erViSOr who eyer voted for the usa
Of patent products.

Don I snicker-I really go as

charming spots in New York where
one may become potted for as low
as 80 cents a treatment. After
dozen treatments, IS no trouble at
all to assume the graceful, waver-
ing stance of a palm.
But even if it wasn't an enjoy
able camouflage one would have to
do it. for it's absolutely essential
if one expects to gather any infor-
nation on the trades, sales and

cause Of an unWritten baseball law

PALM SPRINGS, Dec. Il tUPt-
The Pacific Coast conference, be-
fore adiourning its annual meeting
today, called on the national foot
ball rules committee 10 liberalize
its forward passing rules to permit
more scoring opportunities for col
iegiate teams.
In a resolution. the conference
recommended:
l. Unlimited passing into the
end zone. The present rule pro-
vides a forfeited ball on the Sec
ond incomplete attempt.
2. Forward passing from any
where behind the line Of scrim-
mage. similar to the procedure fol-
lowed by professional team S.
Present collegiate rules disallow
any passing from within the five
yard limit.
Conference members in an addi-
tional move to open up the game
recommended that the rules COM
mittee provide that any kick from
scrimmage. whether a drop kick
or a punt blocked or partially
blocked. may be advanced if re-
covered by kicking side. This would
tend to eliminate the automatic
safety.
The conference unanimously
favored the continuance Of radio
broadcasting subject TO the secur-
ing Of a satisfactory arrangement
with a responsible sponsor"
This condition was interpreted
as specifying a higher value on
broadcasts. Radio rights last year
netted the conference $4,000 from
an oil company sponsor. The same
sponsor was negotiating for a re-
newal. Unconfirmed reports said
the conference will demand as
much as 100000 for next years
exclusive rights.
