STRIKES HINDER
u. S. RECOVERY,
SAYS WAGNER
Workers Want Their Share,
Intend to Get 1t, He
Asserts.

Analysis Of the labor situation. in
an effort to appraise the effect OF
strikes on the recovery program,
has been undertaken By Senator
Robert T. Wagner. chairman Of the
National Labor Board, and the re-
suits Of his survey are published
today in the American Magazine.
Some Of Mr.. Wagner's findings fo4-
low:
Every depression is followed By
strikes. But there have been fewer
during the last year than during
similar periods n the past. status
tics prove this. .,--
The current epidemic Of strikes
has occurred because the WORKERS
have gone through the narrowing
exDeriences OF unemployment Ihey
have suffered terribly. Now they
want their share Of returning pros
perity. and they intend 70 get II.
NO program for recovery Is
helped by labor disputes-eVery
tie-up means a loss TO the industry
involved and to the country as
whole. But I don't believe the
strikers Will halt recovery unless
they increase greatly IN NUMBER
and magnitude.

Favors Wage Boosts

I'VE NAV expect strikes to con-
tinue unless wages are brought INTO
line with prices. and the provisions
OF the MIRA are obeyed by Dotn en-
ployers and employees.
TO a large extent overzealouS Ia
boz. leaders are responsible Tor the
strikes. The MIRA has placed great
power in the hands Of the Leaders.
They are human. Some OF them are
abusing that power
Many employers are unwilling 10
give the workers a fair share OF
profits. A chief cause for the cur
rent strikes IS the reluctance OF
these employers to recognize that
under the NRA the workers have
the right to get together and bar
gain for fair wages.
The average full-time worker IS
not entirely better off than ne was
eighteen months ago. His money
income is One-fOurth larger. But
prices have risen even faster than
wages. and as a result the worker
buys slightly less with his earnings.
Hours Must Be Reduced
Hours OF work will have TO be
reduced still further. But a thirty
hour week for all industry is in
flexible and impractical. Some fac
tories simply could not run under it.
The beauty Of the code idea is that
hours may be fixed in different in
dustries in the way which suits their
special conditions.
The number of people now out
OF work is about 10000 900.
I'VE oppose those company unions
which are dominated by the en-
plOyer and make collective bragain-
ing a fraud. We also oppose a
union whose primary purpose is to
provide fat jobs for professional
labor leaders.
we can't end strikes by law I'M
less we want A dictatorship. But
the strike is less effective than
lot Of labor leaders think. It en-
genders hatred, suffering and losses
which in the long run the workers
share. The labor leader OF the fu-
ture will use the strike as last re-
sort. An unnecessary strike indi-
Gates incompetent labor leadership"

ACCIDENTAL RAID
ROUTS GAMBLERS
40 Patrons Flee E Street
House as Police Hunt
Accused.

Two men who jumped from third
story window and about 40 others
who dashed out of a gambling house
above a restaurant in the 1900 block
of E street must have been surprised
to learn that police weren't after
them when they raided the place yes
terday.
The vice squad was searching Tor
Wilbur Dorsey, indicted on a ganbl-
ing charge, when it broke into the
establishment, which formerly was
operated by Bryant Mcmahon, who
was killed in a gun battle at the
Houston Hotel last Saturday.
Frustrated by heavily barred door
on the front staircase, the officers ran
around to the back Of the place and
proceeded up the back stairs. Half
way up, some twoscore patrons Of the
gambling house rushed down the
stairs as police were ascending. Two
others, who apparently thought they
were to be arrested, ran into a wash
room on the third floor and leaped
out the window, landing on a shed
below.
Hurt in Jump.
A man who gave his name as Ralph
Wilson, 80. of the TOO block of P
street, was one of those who jumped,
police said. He was treated at Emer-
gency Hospital for head and wrist
injuries which were said to be not
serious.
The identity of the other man who
Jumped was not learned. Spectators
said he apparently was uninjured
and left in a taxicab.
Elaborately Equipped.
Sergt. George C. Deyoe said the
gambling house was one of the most
slaborately equipped he has ever seen
here. A racing board stretched half
the length of a room about 100 feet
long. A roulette wheel and poker
table. with chips scattered about, were
on the other side of the room. Signs
on the walls advertised Black jack
every day at l o'clock; Stud poker,
81, 50 and 81 limit, every night at
z o'clock"
After police had been in the place
about five minutes a loudspeaker that
had been blaring race results from
Havre de Grace Lincoln Fields, Rock
ingham. New York and Detroit, was
shut off from an outside source. Ap-
parently getting word that a raid was
going on, the operator of the loud
speaker shouted, Pull the plug out, -
and all was quiet.
