FIVE MILLIONS OF CHILDREN ON
 RELIEF ROSTER

Washington, Jan 12.-UP)- Preliminary data on a nationwide unemployment relief census, sub mitted to-day to the federal emer- gency relief administration, showed that approximately 5,500,000 chil- dren below the age of IS were on relief rolls during November 1883.
 The report was submitted to Ad- ministrator Hopkins by Corrington Gill, director of research and sta tistics for the relief administration Gill said fully two fifths CAP per cent of all persons receiving re- lief were children under 16.
 The report said 12,493,776 per sons of all ages were on relief rolls as of October, 1933.
 Commenting on the report, which will be used as a basis for deter imitation of future activities Of the relief administration, Hopkins ob- served that "the tragedy of the de- pression is being taken out of the hides of children"
 The report covered survey of the states. It WHs completed in q 30-day period, starting early ill November.
 NcB' ldIlllleS Hldue up Pl dCLi- cally one-fifth of the total number of families receiving relief. The total negro families in the coun- try, as given in the 193O census comprised only one-tenth of all families in the United States.
 Hopkins observed that while the relief census showed 3,134,678 re- lief cases were on file in October and November, the number had been materially decreased by emer- gency relief organizations such as CWA and CCC

ington that the rights of the small manufacturer, the small merchant, and the agriculturalist be protect ed, as well as the rights of those engaged in labor. There is every effort also to give to those who op- crate large business it's fair and just share of protection. The real fight that comes up over every code comes when the large inter- ests seek to control the code-mak- ing in order to gain special privi- lege for those favored classes who formerly controlled the govern ment.
 "These same interests are as &C., tive at Washington to-day as they were prior to March 4. =. It is they who to-day are trying to restore the old order of things, in order that the same old program of greed and disregard for human rights may be continued.
 This MIRA program that is so much discussed must go over. .. To permit it to fail means unut- ter; le chaos. It means collapse of the nations financial system. It means complete disruption of transportation and distribution fa- ciIities."

 Referring to his father as MT Henry Ford" Edsel continued:
 MT Henry Ford told MT Ballan- tine we could go no further. we had put up what we thought was a great amount of money and we decided we could not do any more.'
 Ford testified that the Guardian Detroit Union Group, Inc, bor- rowed $15.000,000 in 1881, to take in "criticized assets" of it's unit banks.
 He said he participated in an agreement under which the Bank CTS Trust company of New York and the Continental Illinois Bank and Trust Co, of Chicago, advanced funds to the Guardian Group.
 "The Group wished to borrow some money and that's the way Il went about it," Ford explained.
 "Why was the money needed? 2" asked Ferdinand Pecora, banking committee counsel.
 ITO take out assets of unit banks which had been criticized by examiners" he replied.
 The Bankers Trust company put up $10,000,000 of the total bor- rowed.
 DO you recall that the condi- ton. not only of the group but of it's security affiliates, in December, 1881, was rather serious?' asked Pecora.
 "Yes, replied Ford. "These as- sets were being appraised and depreciated all the time, and this was what made the units require assistance, to satisfy the deprecia- tion and the criticisms"
 During questioning about his business connections, Ford volun- teered the information that all Ford Motor company stock was held by Henry Ford, Mrs Henry Ford and Edsel himself
