ing to attract private capital into the
dormant construction industry.
1t is we'll known fact that slim
ulated construction holds out the
promise of two million new jobs
half of them in actual building, and
half in the industries providing need
ed materials.
The merest glance at the statistics
serves to show how sorry the state
of the building industry is at pres
ent. In 1928, residential buildings ex-
penditures touched $2,78S,000,0O0. In
1880 they dropped to less than half
of that. In 1888, they went down to
the extraordinary low of $300,0O0,-
OOO-a fraction of the 1928 level.
1t is estimated that $1,000, 100000
of private capital will go into hous-
ing developments during 1884, if
present plans have the hoped-for re-
suit. Close to 80 per cent of that
would find it's way into the pockets
of workers-it would go long way
toward solving unemployment and re-
lief problems. And it would provide
hundreds of thousands Of much
needed dwellings,, and represent a
substantial beginning toward elimi-
mating the extreme housing shortage
that now exists.

The thirty-hour week would be of
tremendous help, and would make the
transition easier. 1t will lessen the
shock of the tremendous change that
is just ahead. This makes it all the
more strange that the stupid indus
trialist persists in fighting the shorter
day and shorter week. 1t would save
him and stave off the day of his COM
plete appropriation, which he is has
tening by his greed and utter lack of
understanding of what is going on
about him.
Organized labor stands consistently
advocating the thirty-hour week. II
recognizes the necessity of the shorter
hour, the more jobs, the better wages
in short, it recognizes the fact that
without re-establishing the purchas-

BRITISH EMPLOYERS SET
FINE EXAMPLE

Employers in the British pottery
industries have set an example for
employers everywhere by urging all
workers in the industry to become
trade unionists. The British pottery
employers have apparently come to
see that labor organization is neces-
sary to modern industry. Here is
what they say, in a manifesto issued
by the British Pottery Manufacture
ers Federation and signed on behalf
of 14O firms:
"We, the undersigned, being mem
bers of the above federation, desire
to urge all operatives to become mem
bers of the National Society of Pot
terry Workers, or other unions affl-
lated to the National Council of the
Pottery Industry.
"By our own membership Of the
British Pottery Manufacturers Fed
Grafton we show our belief in CO.
operation. We are convinced that il
is essential to the well-being of al
engaged in the industry that botl
employers and operatives should be
in their respective organizations"

This wise guy will build the roof

Then this wise guy will dig base

Why not?
Why do the job in the same old way

that way?

just no imagination at all, it seems.
But, wait a minute, wait minute.
Of course maybe some fellow will
come along, hang the roof from a lot

But it isn't likely.
We are smashing plenty of prece

Yea, verify, many plenty and plenty

And joyous is the music made by
the pieces as they tumble.
But we must keep in mind this one
sound fact.
There is no principle which says

Getting it into the head by taking
it on the chin always hurts, and some
times weakens the chin in the end
1t may sound brave, sometimes there

that way, but it is always the most
costly way and the slowest way
That goes for employers-plenty of
them-who move around with the aid
of the most modern machinery and
yet do their thinking in caves in the
light of tallow dips, blind to the fact

Getting first principles straight
usually means getting subsequent

Mr.. Rauscher is resident of Milford,

While in the Legislature, Rauscher
was true friend of Labor and sup

will continue to assist Labor when
ever possible.
He appeals to organized labor in

Jack Denny, orchestra leader and professor at the New York Schools of Music, has suggested e solution to the problem of where are the radio stars of the future to come from 2" which is serious ly being considered by city au- thorities. Mayor La Guardia Of New York city has centered civic interest on radio. He has insti- tuted an investigation to determine whether the municipal radio sta- ton, WNYC is earning the support of taxpayers and he is starting free courses in radio instruction in order to combat phoney radio schools. Now, Denny is suggesting that the municipal stations all over the country can serve the community and the interests of radio by being used as training grounds where young graduate students of radio schools can get their practical experience. The chains by means of addition boards can scout for promising talent and select the radio stars of the future from these municipal proteges.
