Doesn't this all sound wonder
full? Imagine, a study is being
made, everything within reason
will be done, and the matter is be-
ing taken up with the proper au-
thorities.
We ask: Is it impossible for a
representative, elected by farmers
to make a definite proposal In an
answer to a statement sent by 2OU
farmers? Is it impossible for the

NEW YORK, December 14.-Dr.
Kari r. Compton, president of the
Massachusetts, Institute of Technol-
ogy, told the annual convention Of the
Association Of Life Insurance Presi-
dents yesterday that scientific ad-
vancements do not foster unemploy-
ment, but create more jobs than they
abolish.
Replying to contentious that science
should take a holiday until economic
adjustments have been made, the edu-
Gator declared:
II believe, on the contrary, that
there has never been a time when it
was more important or more advan-
tageous to press forward for scientific
knowledge and its useful applications
than now"
Science, DR.. Compton said, is ever
q factor for economic security.
This is attested, he added, by the
number Of countries which are carry
ing forward scientific work as an ele-
ment in economic welfare.
In comparison with Great Britain,
Russia and Japan, the university pres
ident said, "our own Nation has been
surprisingly lacking in its appreciation
of the fact that science has a definite
contribution to make in our present
emergency. This contribution would
be direct in the development of new
industries and indirect in the protec-
tion and insurance Of our existing in
dustries against the threat Of power

ucts and processes which may be de-
veloped abroad"

ton heard John H. Fahey, chairman

complete its work and withdraw from

Board Authority to

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-An ex-
ecutive order of President Roose-
welt today strengthened provisions
of the recovery act for collective
bargaining.
The order authorized the national
labor board to arrange and super
wise employe elections under codes
after it determines, in any manner
it sees fit, that a substantial"
number of employees have requested
the election to choose representa-
tives for bargaining with en-
ployers.
The order carried out the Presi-
dents promise to workers repre-
senatives from the Weirton Steel
Company, who protested the COM
pany's action in refusing to permit
labor board ell ection. 1t was
viewed here as a blow at company
unions and as a direct challenge to
all employers who have signed
codes and later DISTRACTED employees
who attempted to make collective
agreements on wages, hours and
working conditions.

VETERANS. PAY
ISSUE TO STIR
SENATE BATTLE
Pressure Applied to Vote
Conscience Lawmakers
by Administration.
By United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE
veterans issue, loaded with po-
ntical dynamite, was before the
senate today. Administration pres
sure was applied to prevent vote
conscious senators from upsetting
the economy program and handing
out millions of dollars for pensionN
and benefits.
The thought of approaching cleo
tions always comes to the congress
sional mind when veterans
question is to be decided. In tight
elections, veterans votes can swing
a verdict.
In an atmosphere of this kind,
then, the senate was prepared to
receive from its appropriations
committee a report on the indie
pendent offices appropriations bill,
the first supply bill of the session.
AS a final act before reporting the
measure, the committee was to de-
eide whether or not to attach to
it the American Legion four-point
program for restoration of vet
Grams benefits taken away under
the economy act.
The administration leadership
faltered slightly yesterday when the
committee, by vote of II to 10, de-
cided that it would be within SEN
ate rules to put the veterans rider
on the independent offices bill. Sem
ator James F. Byrnes Dem, s.. O.,
an administration stalwart, had sue
ceeded on the previous day in con-
vincing a subcommittee that the
program, incorporated in the pro-
posed Reed amendment, was not
germane to an appropriation meas
