for the production of wealth for the
real benefit of the people, who do most
of the useful work in both production
and distribution.
The executive council of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor has prop
erly visioned this idea. In a report to
the annual convention of the fedora
ton, after stating that the "funda-
mental difficulty" with our economic
system is the lack of equal sharing
in those things which make up the
welfare of our people, the council
said:
with co-ordinated planning we
may endeavor to make the things
people want, assure distribution by
planning for adequate consuming
power, thereby making it possible for
all to enjoy the benefits of social
progress"
Economic planning, national in
scope, designed to secure prosperity
for the masses of the people, is the
purpose of the New Deal.
1t is the underlying purpose of the
national industrial recovery act.
Moreover, it is in thorough accord
with the constitution of the United
States, which confers upon congress
the power "to promote the general
welfare"
Of course using the constitution
and the power of congress to promote
the interests of the masses of the
people arouses the opposition of those
subversive groups who have hitherto
used the government to advance the
interests of the profteers. 1t is quite
natural that they should see in eco
nomic planning for the public inter
est direct assault on the form of
government as they and their courts
have shaped it. But real economic
planning for the welfare of the peo-
pie, instead of overthrowing the form
of government outlined in the consti-
tuition, will make it the servant of
the people, and that is what it should
be.

About $500 skilled workers at the
navy yard here went from the a.
hour week to the 40-hour basis.
The 40-hour law covers those
classes of employees whose wages are
fixed by boards or other authorities.
The independent offices bill is not eff
fective as a whole until July /, but
Controller General McCarl and Attor-
ney General Cummings ruled that the
40-hour provision was to apply now.
Workers affected by the shorter week
get the same pay as when they
worked 44 or 48 hours.
Clyde M. Mills, president of Colum-
bia Typographical Union, said in a
statement that "the application of the
shorter work week marks concerted
effort on the part of all representa-
tives Of employees in the government
for the recognition of the principle of
shorter hours insisted upon by the
NRA."
Employment in the government
printing office, he added, now is
placed on par with that on the out
side.

DIR. WIRT'S BRAINSTORM

DR.. William A. Writ, Gary, Ind,
educator, got into the limelight of
publicity by claiming that he had dis
covered a plot on the part of certain
government officials and others to
overthrow the form of government or
social order of the United States. In
his statement before the special COM
mittee of the house of representa-
tives appointed to investigate the
charge, DIR. Writ revealed that the
"plot" consisted of the advocacy of
national economic planning, and that
the main "plotter" was Assistant
Secretary of Agriculture Tugwell,
who for some time has sponsored eco
nomic planning as a means to restore
prosperity to the farmers in particu-
lar and to the people generally.
Economic planning in itself is not
new. The new element is the purpose
of economic planning. In the past,
and to large extent in the present,
economic planning" has been the
monopoly of capitalists, bankers and
large investors with unlimited profits
for those who own and control indus
try as its sole object. The logical
result of this planning" was the de-
preston which began in 1929 and
which produced an unemployed army
running from 3,216,OOO in January,
1880, to 1858, 900 in March, 1888, and
now standing at about 100000. In
addition, the old planning" ruined
thousands of banks, millions of farm
ers, and threw our entire economic
and social order to the verge of chaos.
The new economic planning is de-
signed to use our immense capacities

" Where with our
roo Little Hatchet
we tell the truth
about many things, sometimes pro-
foundly, sometimes hippantly,
sometimes recklessly.

The Writ episode isn't writ all the
newspaper space it's getting, but
nevertheless here's where it gets a
bit more.
The nation hasn't seen so good
show in many moons-and yet-and
yet
It isn't all just laughing matter,
funny as the Gary professor has been
on the stand and in the public prints.
For example, he has blown up a
tempest in teapot. The next time
charges of red Vaccinations are
made there'll be many who will say,
"Oh, oh, just another Writ fiasco"-
just more hooey."
That's the damage this vaudeville
stunt has done.
AS for Writ himself, how many re-
member the Gary school propaganda
back in 1915, or thereabouts A great
many persons thought it a good idea
at the time, and there was tremen-
dous effort to have it installed in New
York.
Labor had a lot to do with defeat
ing the proposition. 1t didn't like
the fact that it came from Gary, steel
trust seat; and it didn't like what
looked like lot of Rockefeller in
f1uence.
So the Gary plan went back to
Gary and nothing much has been
heard of DIR. Writ from that day to
this, when he energies with bang.
And it's all so funny. A few folks,
having varying views, gather at a
party and jabber. How they can jab-
ber! But they say Writ did most of
the jabbering.
The serious point to it all is this:
In that party there wasn't one person
qualified to speak for the administra-
tion or for any real part of it. They
could have promised "the revolution"
tomorrow morning and it wouldn't
have meant anything.
There was Lawrence Todd. He's a
queer combination of social registerite
and communist newspaper reporter.
He represents the official soviet press
service in Washington. He's not a
competent prophet of American oper-
ations or actions. His predictions
would be precisely meaningless.
There were some government bu-
reau employees. They may be good
employees, but they cannot speak with
authority. None can be said to be
closer to president than that possibly
one or two might be ga friend of a
friend" of some professional bureau
chief.
It's all very funny and it looks as
if DR.. Writ, of Gary, had been taken
for swell buggyride.
Whereupon congress went dizzy
and the high hats on the hill got
just about as foolish as DR.. Writ.
If the whole thing had been engi-
neered to take peoples minds from
real issues, if it had all built to Gre
ate smoke screen, it couldn't have
been better timed.
So, with DIR. Writ making a mon
key of himself, with congressman
making monkeys of themselves, per-
haps "we the people" are the biggest
monkeys of all for providing an au-
dience that eats up columns of stuff
about the silliest thing Washington
has seen under the New Deal. Let's
call it day on freak shows.

ions organized by the free will of the
workers. Of course what he said ap-
plies with equal force to company
unions in all industries. Yet employ
ers go on pretending they have no
interest in the form of organization
their employees adopt and company
unions are organized because the
workers want them.
Eastman argued for statutory pro-
visions proposed in the Dill bill gura-
anteeing independence of railroad la
Dor organizations and freedom of
choice to employees in selecting their
labor representatives. Such legisla-
tion is in line with national policy
as expressed in Section IA of the
national industrial recovery act and
should be speedily adopted.

STEEL PLANTS SET
STILL LFASTERPA
New Peak Reached Despite
Fall in Scrap Prices and
Car Output.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May 9.-While steel
production has risen 2 points this
week to so per cent Of capacity, the
highest rate since September. 1890,
scrap prices continue to recede and
automobile production has appar-
emily passed its peak" said Iron Age
today
AS to the automobile situation, the
review said the changed outlook lis
ascribed to a combination of causes,
not the least Of which is the series of
labor disturbances which harassed
manufacturers at the height of their
sales campaign"
The continued rise in steel output
In the face OF leveling off of motor
car production" said the review, lis
accounted for, in part, by the desire
OF consumers to take advantage of
contracts made perior to recent price
advances.
However, most Of the stocking that
has taken place so far has been on
the part of mills. Non -integrated
producers have accumulated large
supplies OF semi finished steel, and
pipe, tube and wire mills have built
up stocks in warehouse for shipment
next month"
Scrap prices. the review pointed
out. have suffered because of the de-
termination Of steel producers to
nquldate their scrap inventories by
July l."
Aside from business done on a
quarterly basis, said the publication,
the industry has considerable railroad
and structural tonnage which will
carry well into July and August.
