EVA RED TAPE

RICHMOND, Va, June 2.-The
statement that there are hundreds
of unemployed laborers in Rich
mond ready and willing to work
on the bridge approaches or other
public works who are prevented
from procuring work by the red
tape of the Virginia emergency
relief administration Set-up was
made by l.. c. Mcdowell, preSi-
dent of the Workers Protective
Union.
The set-up of the relief admin
istration makes it necessary for a
person to declare himself a pauper
before he is eligible for any form
Of work, Mr.. Mcdowell said.
Hundreds of carpenters are
turned away from the city en-
ployment bureau because of the
red-tape requirements, and, as long
as skilled labor is asked to work
for meals and 80 cents a week for
wages, there will always be a
labor shortage" he stated.

Separation of the Army Air

of about 1000 planes is finding
increasing support among civilian
members of the special committee

service, it was learned today.
Lindbergh Heard
Civilian members of the COM
mittee, which is headed by Former
Secretary of War Newton D.
Baker, are swinging in favor Of
these two proposals as the result
of testimony by scores of Army
skyriders and noted filters, includ'
ing Col. Charles A. Lindbergh.
Establishment of the G. H. @.
air force is expected to be recon-
mended by the committee in its
report. This plan, providing for
creation of a flying force of 900
planes to be available at all times
for emergency, was proposed last
January by a board of Army Off
GERS under Deputy Chief of Staff
Maj. Gen. Hugh A. Drum.
Outcome in Doubt
General Drum now heads the
list of five military chiefs on the
Baker committee. The committee
also has six civilian members. in

Whether the civilian members
will be able to muster enough
strength to induce the military
chiefs to support a recommends

UNION
WINS RETURN
Of 81 WAGE
|; Troops Withdrawn as Early
Settlement of Other Rows
Seems Imminent
BY JAMES L. KILGALLEN
International News Service

TOLEDO, Ohio, June 2 G.N.SJ.
Prospects of general strike in
Toledo faded sharply today as a
result of the settlement of the
threatened walkout of the Electri-
cal Workers Union which had
been set for 7 o'clock this morn
ing.
BY a vote of 1874 to "a, the cleo
trical workers last night declared
themselves in favor of mo strike"
They had won at the confer
ence table a 20 per cent increase
in wages-a smashing victory.
Situation Clears
With the settlement Of this
strike, which would have paralyzed
the city's industries, the skies
cleared in labor-embattled Toledo,
where three automobile plant
strikes are still in progress.
There was a strong hope that
the strike of the Electric Auto
Lite Company would soon be
settled. If that is accomplished
virtually all danger Of a general
strike will be over.
Fully one-third Of the nearly
1000 Ohio national guards on
duty at the Auto-Lite plant have
been withdrawn and additional
troops are soon to leave. There
seems to be little danger of the
renewal of rioting at this plant
where two were killed and many
injured a week ago last Thursday.
Settlement Of the electrical
workers strike was credited largely
to persistent work of the Federal
mediators, Charles P. Taft, E. H.
Dunnigan, and Ralph Lind.
Coates Assists
They received excellent coopera-
ton from Frank P. Coates, preSi-
dent of the Toledo Edison Com
pany, who rushed by train from
New York and after a few hours
round table discussion with lead
ers acceded to demands which
had caused much dispute and bag
Cling.
Mr.. Taft emerged from the con.
ference rooms in his shirt sleeves
and with perSpiration dripping
down his face. He told newspaper
men the agreement had been
worked out and that the Toledo
Edison Company and affiliated in
duSrtieS had agreed to restore the
wage scale Of June /, 1882"

officer, analysed the gum and
reported it contained enough
deadly poison to wipe out a

DR.. True was amazed the slight
taste of the poison did not cause
death to Mrs. Mckenzie.

Many public utility companies
operating in the Tennessee Valley
must either sell their plants to
the Government or face competi-
ton, DR.. Arthur E. Morgan, chair
man of the Tennessee Valley Au-
thority, told the House Appro-
priations Committee in hearings
made public today. Mr.. Morgan
said:
"In our opinion, if we can
carry through the program we
have, we may cause a temporary
disadvantage to the immediate
power interests around there.
I'VE are trying to make ar
rangements to purchase their
utilities. This project is an
effort to set up a government
development of power and, if
that is adopted, it seems to me
a reasonable Set-up that it
should not be hamStrung and
SO limited that it is bound to
fail"
The iva already has an agree
ment with the Commonwealth
and Southern Power Company for
a division of territory pending
building of Norris Dam, he said.
Total cost of the IVA develop
ment was estimated at more than
$500, 100000 by Mr.. Morgan. In
addition to Wilson Dam at
Muscle Shoals and two dams
under construction, four other
dams are contemplated. Cost of
the dams is placed at 5000, 900

SENATE To PASS
TARIFF BILL
MONDAY
All Amendments Seem Lost
Under Agreement Made
To Expedite Vote
By EUGENE J. CADOU
International News Service

Administration forces in the
Senate will beat off all emascu-
lating amendments and pass the
reciprocal tariff bill Monday
night, according to all indications
today.
Senators who have been debat-
ing the tariff measure for more
than three weeks were in recess
today, but had agreed to finish
the bill on Monday.
Support for Johnson
Opponents probably will muster
their greatest strength in the vote,
scheduled for noon Monday, on
the amendment introduced by
Senator johnson (RD of Califor-
ma, which would bar agricultural
and horticultural products and
goods manufactured from them
from tariff bargaining.
Limitation of debate to 10
minutes for each speaker with
a vote on all amendments at 5
p. m. Monday is a part of
the reimbursement agreement
made to expedite the bill.
Amendments exempting indus
trial products from provisions of
the bill and other proposals Grip
ping the measure will be re-
jected, Administration chieftainS
said.
Progressives Split
President Roosevelt, who usu-
ally has the votes of the Repub-
lican insurgents at his command,
will lose most of them on the
tariff issue.
With the exception of Sen
ator Norris (RD of Nebraska
and possibly one or two others,
the insurgents will vote against
the bill. One of it's most for
midable opponents is Senator
Cutting of New Mexico, G. o. P.
Progressive.
The Administration, on the
other hand, was certain to garner
nearly all of the Democratic votes,
which appears ample to carry the
bill.
An incipient Democratic revolt
led by Senators from sheep rails
ing States, was quelled when word
was passed out that wool would
not be affected by the tariff
treaties.

Then, with a party Of natives, DR..
Myers started out on an expedition
up the Amazon. He almost lost his
life when their launch was wrecked In
the rapids and all scientific instru-

carried down the river to Para and
from there by seaplane to George
town. Here they were bred. The few

RETURN TOFARMS
IS URGED BY FORD
Declares Industry Would
Follow Population to
Smaller Towns.
Nv the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
FORT MYERS, Fla, March T.
Henry Ford says the great thing" of
today is the back-to-the-land move
nnent.
Talking from comfortable chair
In his garage workshop at his Winter
home here, the automobile manufac-
turer said this movement lis the an
swer to making people selfsustaining
rather than dependent upon industry,
which, at its best, is uncertain and
seasonable.
whenever people learn to become
self-sustaining on farms or in small
rural communities, then industry
will seek out these communities. In
dustry will follow people to the
smaller towns and many of our prob
lens will be solved"
Optimistic on Car Industry.
Ford, speaking of the Presidents
advice to industry, said the only way
to hire more men is to create more
markets. The men with new jobs
will furnish new markets. The diff
ficulty. as far as industry is con-
cerned. is finding a place to employ
the men before the market exists to
make their employment profitable.
More men will manufacture more
goods and industry must find mar
ket for their products or the jobs will
eat up the industry"
He expressed optimism regarding
the automobile industry, which he
said never looked better than 1t does
today"
I'VE developed a new and better
car during the depression-spent mil
lions of dollars to do it." he said.
Nov we are to do business. Other
forward looking industries employed
their capital the same way, expert
menting during the depression in or
der to have better product when
things returned to normal. The de-
preston was just state Of mind. 1t
is over for every one who has changed
their state of mind"
Settles Have Their Use"
The back-to-the-farm movement is
near to the heart of the manufac-
turer. He says it is important that
no one hinders it.
"Big cities are mistake when they
are so organized that half of the peo-
pie are out of work. with nothing to
fall back on when their jobs disap-
pear.
"Cities have their uses, however.
Young men can gain experience and
education in cities. and if the young
man carried this knowledge back to
the country he would be able to ap-
preciate real living on a more gen.
uine basis. In other words. people
must learn to adopt simpler scale
Of living"
