pressed by the Joint conference OF

tenn continues. A letter will be sent

interested in business interests. the
conference feels the citizens of the

two-year term.

strays of the reservation to commit
an offense, State courts will try him.
For the reservation courts, Indian
judges are to be appointed by the In

are barred from practicing before

MASS PRODUCTION
OF HOUSING SEEN
Richberg Says New Industry
Will Solve u. S. Unem-
pIoyment Problem.
Nv thu Associated Press.

BY the AsSoClhteu EIebos
The rise of a new industry. furnish
ing cheap homes by mass-production
methods, was foreseen today by Donald
r. Richberg, former N. r. A. chieftain,
as a rapidly approaching solution to
Americas unemployment problem.
The man who only six months ago
was President Roosevelt's chief aide
in the recovery drive recalled the sud-
den growth of the automobile indus
try when prices were lowered by mass
production.
He said there was hope for millions
of jobs in producing pre-fabricated
homes selling at $4,000 to $4,000 and
asserted such prices had been found
practicable in experimental production.
Industrial Union Move.
This development, Richberg said,
was likely to give impetus to the drive
now under way in the American Fed
Grafton of Labor for industrial, rather
than craft unions.
For many years labor lawyer him
self, Richberg said there were fields
for both industrial and craft unions,
and that If they could not get along
together In one organization-the fed
eration-then there would eventually
be two big organizations.
Large corporations building pre-
fabricated homes, he argued, will pay
union wages, but they will not be able
to operate under the present craft
union system. In the craft system,
workers are organized according to
their particular trades, not by whole
industries.
Getting Out Of Emergency.
"We're getting out Of the emergency
phase" he said. but I don't think
we're getting out Of the problem that
was accentuated in the depression
how are you going to employ all the
willing workers-because we haven't
balanced our economy.
This holding back Of the durable
goods industries-off1ce buildings.
apartments. hotels and railroad con-
struction-is the big problem. There
is no reason to anticipate you can take
up that slack by any legerdemain now.
"Our best hope Is in the small homes
field"
