LABOR BILL HIT
BY STEEL HEADS
Weir Says Measure Would
Destroy Individual Free
dom and Industry.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Ernest T. Weir. a leader of the op-
position to certain NJ R. A. policies,
today contended industry can not
function under such a handicap as
would be imposed" by the Wagner
labor bill
The chairman of the National Steel
Corporation gave his views to the
Senate Labor Committee. The legis-
lation would make permanent the
National Labor Board and outlaw en-
ployer-dominated company unions.
Weir. now engaged in a court fight
with the Government over labor pro-
visions of the recovery act, also con-
tended the Wagner bill would de-
stroy individual freedom and industry.
His testimony climaxed attacks
against the bill by several spokesmen
for the steel industry.
''Vicious." +" destructive" and grossly
unfair" were some of the terms ap-
piled to the bill by Weir.
Appears With Attorney.
The National Steel chairman, whom
the Government is seeking to restrain
from violating the collective bargain
ing features of the existing recovery
act, appeared at the hearing with Earl
F. Reed, who said he was resigning as
a special assistant to the United
States Attorney General to be at
torney for Weir.
Weir said the average employe joins
a union only because union organizers
tell him he has to do so to hold his
job.
Under the Wagner bill, he testified,
employees would be free to carry on
any kind of propaganda, but employ
ers would be barred from even indi-
eating their attitude toward labor
union membership.
Weir took issue with the recent re-
mark of william Green, president Of
the American Federation of Labor,
concerning alleged destitution in
Weirton because of the company's at
titude toward labor.
Nothing can be farther from the
truth. The Weirton plant today is
employing more people than 1t ever
did There are no idle men in or
about Weirton who can not get work
If they want work." he asserted.
Paid Organizers by Union.
Regarding Weirton workmen who
recently appeared before the COM
mittee, Weir said:
They were here because they are
paid officers and organizers for the
union. which is trying to take about
s250,000 year in dues out of our
employees"

.UNTERMyER HITS
MARKET CONTROL
Attorney Urges Changes,
Especially in Disputed
Marginal Provisions.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Severe criticism of the stock market
control bill was voiced to the Senate
Banking Committee today by Samuel
Untermyer, one of the foremost advo-
Gates of Federal regulation of the ex-
changes.
The short, heavy-set lawyer who
served as counsel for the famous Pujo
banking inquiry in the House 20 years
ago, recommended many changes in
the bill, including drastic modifica-
tion of its disputed marginal provi-
Sions.
He recommended that complete SUI
pervision Of margin requirements be
vested with the Federal Reserve Board
instead of attempting to write them
into the law.
The rigid. uniform marginal require
ments in the bill, Untermyer said,
were written upon "a false basis"
which he contended would have the
effect of debating the market.
Influences Changes.
Untermyer's statement gave impetus
to a strong move already evident
within the committee to eliminate the
fixed marginal requirements in the
Fletcher -Rayburn bill and leave full
control over them to the Federal Re-
serve Board.
As Untermyer testified the commit
tee was handed new and confidential
draft of the stock market bill making
changes in many of the most contro-
versial sections, but leaving the mar
ginal requirements the same. 1t was
prepared by Ferdinand Pecora. COM
mittee counsel. and his associates.
The New York attorney made 1t
plain that in criticizing the pending
bill he was not lacking In enthusiasm
or anxiety for the enactment of COM
prehensive legislation for the Federal
regulation of stock exchanges"
He submitted his suggestions under
the head of friendly criticism"
Declared Wrong Theory.
But Untermyer said to have fixed
margins for all kinds of securities was
the wrong theory.
"A loan secured by a 10 per cent
margin on bonds of the State of New
York at their market value may be far
more conservative than go per cent
margin on any number of listed
stocks" he said.
Untermyer also criticized the bills
provision preventing loans by brokers
on unlisted securities as lone of the
most serious prohibitions in the bill
and "an unnecessary restriction in the
wrong direction, the effect of which
will be to destroy the market value OF
many of the highest classes Of securi-
ties"
The provision limiting loans on Sc
curitles to Federal Reserve Banks was
characterized by Untermyer as zone
of the most novel and important, and
1 think the most devastating, require
ments of the BILL
He said this would lessen Specula-
ton but would create haven in the

GIRL REVEALED SLAIN BY BULLET
USED IN DISTRICT MANS SUICIDE

by the same bullet which passed clear
through Halls head.
An autopsy performed upon Hall,
revealed that the bullet had passed
through his head and this same bullet
was found in the brain of the girl.
As Emmert reconstructed the shoot
ing, and also from the positions Of
the two bodies, side by side, Hall, who
had threatened in a letter to commit
suicide unless she accompany him to
Washington. shot himself while the
girl sat with her head upon his
shoulder. The bullet, said Emmert,
passed through Halls head and struck
the Hudson girl near the top of the
head. This theory was further borne
out by the fact that power burns were
found on Halls head, but none on
the girls.

Day for
So A Week on Job
Upstate Resort
(By a Worker Correspondent

BAYONNE, N. j. = got a job
near Monticello a few weeks ago
in a summer resort we'll known for
the celebrities that arrive there
weekly. I started work the same
day that I received the job and it
wasn't until few days later that
I was told the hours I would have
to work and the pay I was to get.
The place is situated in White
Lake, N. Y, eight miles from
Monticello.
They exploited the workers so
much there and for so little pay
that I quit the job without getting
my weeks pay that I rightly de-
served. They made me work from
9 in the morning until 3 a. m. the
next day for IS a week.
They made me sleep in room
with four other boys (who inciden-
tally quit also) in bed without
any sheet and filthy mattresses
that hadn't been cleaned for years.
We ate what was left over, which
wasn't any too good. And they tell
the paying guests that we are get
ting the best of eats and all other
things plus big salary.
P. S. - am now home and still
out of work largely due to the fact
that there are no JOBS to be had,
and yet they tell us that times are
getting better, I have only one
faith left, and that is in the Com
munist Party.
