Calling for A Maxi

A demand for a 30-hour week was
presented by William Green, president
Of the American Federation Of Labor,
and supported by John L. Lewis. pres
ident Of the United Mine Workers Of
America; the Reverend Father Fran
els j. Haas, Of the National Catholic
School of Social Service; Miss Rose
Schneiderman, president of the Ma

ternational Ladies Garment Workers
Union; Arthur D. Wharton, president
Of the International Association Of
Machinists; Francis ]. German, inter-
national first vice president of the
United Textile Workers of Ameica,
and others.
Leading off the list Of speakers,
William Green, president Of the Amer
lean Federation Of Labor, said: 'The
achievements of the NRA have been
many. It has demonstrated
the basic s%oundness of bringing about
unemployment through the shortening
Of hours, of increasing the aggregate
purchasing power through minimum
wage provisions and of eliminating
some Of the worse features Of cut
throat competition"
Supports 3O-Hour Bill
"The American Federation of Labor
is this year supporting with all
strength at it's command the Black
Connery bill, providing for a 3O-hour
week. It is taking this action pri-
marily because the recovery program
has not fulfilled what labor considered
its two primary purposes-a reduction
in the hours of work sufficient to alb
sorb at least a majority of the unem4
ployed, and an increase in mass pur-
chasing power sufficient to create a
market for the products of industry
and to give the workers Of this coun-
try the minimum goods and services to
which any human being is entitled.
Il submit first of all that a drastic
reduction in the hours of work fixed
by the Codes must be made, if we are
to meet our problem Of unemployment
: , Until we solve it, we a hope
for little in the way Of recovery. ? =
| believe sincerely that the adoption
Of the 30-hour week in Codes Of fair
competition would solve this problem,
would return to industry the major
portion of our unemployed and would
be the first step in the creation of the
purchasing power which is essential
to recovery"
Answering a question by Blackwell
Smith, counsel and ex-officio board
member, as to how a drastic limita-
ton Of hours, with compensating pay
increase, would effect unit cost of pro-
d~uction, Mr.. Green said:
I'VE have shifted from the 12-hour
day to the 10-hour day and from the
10-hour day to the 8-hour day, and,
strange n contradictory as it may
seem, we have reduced unit costs as
we have shifted. ? Because Of
the efficiency of the worker developed
during the shorter work week, and the
resourcefulness of management, we
will find within a very short time
that the unit cost Of production will
be decreased rather than increased"
