Ten thousand automobile work

of the Automobile Labor Board
to improve working conditions in

avenues to their goal-free collec'

To Meet Auto Men
Although Mr.. Green would not
disclose details of his peace
parley with the auto magnates,
he appeared confident of meet

noon or tomorrow here in Wash

Strengthened by the findings
of the Research and Planning

workers are confident their argu-

with convincing figures from the
Bureau Of Labor Statistics, re.

workers were retired at the age

Questions Influence
OF Employment Office
70 the Editor of The Times:


While there is so much inves.
tigating going on I don't see
why some Senator or Repre-
sentative doesn't investigate a
certain widely known and widely
patronized employment office
OF Washington. It is popularity
rumored that this office is
owned by one of our worthy
Senators, and that through this
utilization and also an affilia-
ton with the NRA, placed many
Government positions receiving
their regular large commission.
No wonder outsiders couldn't
even get inside the door when
they went job hunting!
Only the other day a man
was opening up a new Govern.
ment office and called this
popular employment office and
was promptly sent a host Of
pretty girls.
If some enterprising politician
cared to investigate few things
he might find out why so many
of the jobs were "cornered" and
are still "cornered" in the vari-
Gus Government offices.
