The proposal was consid-
cred in question and answer
form in executive session of
the convention after Mr..
Green outlined it at an open
meeting.
The questions asked we're very
pertinent and fair" Mr.. Green said
at the noon adjournment. Il am
very pleased with my reception"
President Green urged at least a
ten-day postponement of the steel
strike, it was learned, to give Presi-
dent Roosevelt and congress an OPP
.portunity to evolve a solution to the
workers problems along the lines
he suggested.
He pleaded with embittered steel
workers to cancel their plans for a
general strike, and offered them a
solution, through the federal gov
eminent, of the difficulties which
have brought the industry to a
crisis.
Three conditions outlined by Mr..
Green, which he said, if accepted
by mill owners, would lead to the
strike being called off, were:
l. A board of three, appointed by
the President to receive complaints
of violations of Section IA, to
mediate any differences, and to act
if necessary.
The board would mediate and
conciliate in code disputes. and
would arrange for collective bar
gaining by employees, if they re-
quested it.
The board also would act as ar
bitter under the steel code, providing
all questions to be arbitrated we're
voluntarily submitted by both par
ties, and it would hear and deter
mine the merit of any complaints
of violation of Section IA.
2. The employees shall have the
right to bargain collectively, and
the board would have the authority
to order and supervise elections, off
company property. Representatives
chosen by a majority of the workers
would act for the whole.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1934-06-15

8. The management of. each plant
shall meet workers or their elected
representatives to settle all disputes.
AS a last resort, the impartial board
would have the final decision in the
dispute.
Mr.. Green based his argument
against a strike at the present time
on the grounds that the workers
can not afford to let the steel
operators choose the battle field or
the hour on which the battle is to
be fought
81 firmly believe" he declared.
that if they will not yield to the
law, they will yield to the more
powerful force of public opinion. We
can not afford to play into the
hands of these autocratic barons.
We must use strategy.
In my judgment, it is my firm
opinion based on my own interest
in the workers and my own expe-
rience that the time will come. when
your wrongs will be righted. But I
do not believe the time is here at
this moment"
Mr.. Green's proposals we're ac-
claimed loudly by the delegates. He
was interrupted while they ap-
plauded and cheered, in contrast TO
the jeers and shouting that marked
yesterdays sessions as President
Tighe sought to avert a strike.
When he was allowed to continue.
MI. Green said:
81 feel confident that the Presi-
dent will accept your proposal if
you adopt it and send it to him as
an ultimatum of this convention.
1T will do two things: throw
CONSERVATION into the ranks of the
steel owners, and mobilize public
opinion behind you"
President Green earlier told th1
delegates that he knew the public
would support them in any strike,
provided the public was acquainted
with their problems. He said, how
ever, he did not believe the public
presently was thoroughly aware OF
conditions in the steel mills.

NAz|S FACING
REPR|SAL FOR
DEBT HOLIDAY
Britain Plans to Seize All
Credits; United Front
Is Probable.
By United Press

By United Press
Germany's six months morato-
rum on all foreign obligations, eff
fective July 1, met with quick re-
prisal today.
In the British house of commons,
Neville Chamberlain, chancellor of
the exchequer. announced that IN
less Germany made a satisfactory
offer to British bondholders and
commercial interests before July L,
he would set up a clearing house to
seizeeG German credits in Britain and
pay debt services that way.
In Paris the government pro-
tested officially against suspension
of payment on the Dawes and
Young reparation loans and the
foreign Office prepared to ask the
United States, Britain and other
creditors to take joint action.
The foreign Office will communi-
cate with the state department, with
Great Britain, switzerland and Hol-
land its views regarding the six
months moratorium, and will seek a
united front of creditors.
1t was thought France meantime
would not initiate the British action
of making arrangements for a clear
ing house to seize German credits
and apply them to the sacred repa-
rations loans.
There had been suggestions France
might bar imports from Germany
as a retaliatory measure, but Ger
many could retaliate by barring
French goods.
1t was understood, however, that
the government was preparing to
block private payments of French
business men to G rmans-Which
would be practically equivalent to
hating commerce.
This would represent the ever
est possible pressure, as France is
Germany's best customer.

BRINGS SUIT

Protesting against a $1,000 ex-

rule giving the Government Off

cause why they should not be
restrained from collecting the tax.

excise tax against sale of 80 beer
is unjust and unconstitutional

Ordinarily it would not be up to

RE-HEl9IAG TO Be tRGyE1

ATLANTA, Ga.-The Supreme Court
OF Georgia has agreed to hear a mo-
tion Tor a rehearing in the case af
Angelo Herndon, 2O-year-old Negro
organizer sentenced to 1920 years on
the chain gang on a charge of Sin
surrection."
The widespread interest and jndip-
nation caused by the case, particular
~ the collection Of $15,O 900 in bail
and the tremendous demonstration
since Herndon's temporary release re-
suited IN the calling of a special SEES
i'm Of the Supreme Court on Aug
ust 20.
The Court decided that it would
hear the motion for ~re-hearing and
ordered the motion filed. This does
rot mean that the court will permit
a re-hearing- It merely means that
the court will consider the question
OF whether or not it will grant a re-
hearing.
The Georgia Supreme Court pre
vlously denied Herndon a new trial
holding among other things that the
state Of Georgia has the right to ex
clude Negroes from its juries.
