The action Of President Roosevelt in criticizing
tae reactionary pretense of the u S. Chamber Of
Commerce that it spoke FOR American business and
the prompt defense Of that organization by Bertrand
Sael Old Guard leader Of the House, draws the line
where should be drawn between the administration
of the people and the old Big Business dominated Re
publican party.
There was much fanfare when Andy Bettwy be-
came mayor Of N0gales. Look out, Andy, Roosevelt

~ AhADOAlCAb, perhaps, puI
containing an incontrovertible
element OF truth, Is the fact
L that the millions of employ
able unemployed constitute one of
Americas greatest resources.
Within their ranks are skilled work.
ers in every line of industrial endeavor,
agriculturists, miners, professional
men and women capable of taking
their place in the scheme Of ma
tons recovery and progress. Having
these millions available under circum-
stances which now exist Is not con-
dition for boasting, but it is an Assur-
ance that manpower of any desired
kind will be available when the need
for it develops.
Statistics gathered by the Federal
Emergency Relief Administration offer
invaluable testimony in this direc-
ton. For instance, a recent survey
showed 3s45, 900 employable persons
between the ages Of is and "a on re-
lief in the urban areas OF the United
States.
43.2T In Manufacturing.
In breakdown of occupstional pur-
suits, it was found that l.574.000, or
43.2 per cent of these normally we're
employed in the manufacturing and
mechanical industries. Embraced in
this classification Is the building in
dustry, the unemployed who confess
allegiance to 1t numbering 465. 1000, or
1913 per cent of the total on these
urban rolls. An incidental study Of
the building industry showed at the
same time that these 465.000 con-
stitute one-iourth Of the normal en-
ployment in the industry. Concen-
trated efforts of the administration to
stimulate this industry. coupled with
increasing necessity for new building
activity as structures become obsolete,
make it certain that this reservoir OF
skilled builders will prove OF increas-
ing value when the pickup gains mo-
mentum.
Iron, steel and other metal manu-
featuring industries may find an
other 300,0 900 workers on these rolls
when the need arises Electrical ma
chinery and supply factories, indus

experienced workers from this source.
Belonging to the transportation and
communication group are 407 1000 en-
ployable workers on urban relief. to
the trade group are 447 900 more, to
the mineral-extracting pursuits are

De FOREST CHARGE.
G0ESUNANSWERED.
Navy Department Silent on
Claim of Failure to
Make Changes.

With most of the Navy's lighter
than-air experts attending the forum
at Akron, Ohio, under the Guggen-
helm Airship Institute, the Navy De-
partment today declined to comment
on the charge Of Prof. Alfred v. de
Forest, associate professor Of me-
chanical engineering at Massachu-
sets Institute of Technology. that the
Navy was to blame for the crash OF
the Macon of the California coast
February IL. because it allegedly
failed to make the necessary struc-
tural changes.
Lieut.. Comdr. Jesse L. Kenworthy
now on duty In the Bureau of Aero
nautics. who was executive ofiicer OF
the Macon when she went down, re-
turned to Washington this morning
from Akron, but withheld comment.
He said only his superiors could speak
for publication. He declared, however
that he was misquoted by an Akron
newspaper man, who represented
Lieut.. Comdr. Kenworthy as saying
the Macon was given impossible tasks
TO do.
Colleagues silent.
There was O disposition today at
the Navy Department TO hold that
Prof. de Forest is only one of the
members OF the Durand board, named
in March through the efforts OF Sec
retary Swanson to determine the
whole future design and construction
of airships in the Navy. Officials here
considered it significant. but none OF
the other members of the Durand
board have commented on the alleged
failure of the Navy to take proper
structural precautions in the case OF
the Macon
The special committee was headed
by William F. Durand. professor
emeritus OF mechanical engineering at
Stanford University. Other members
in addition to Prof. de Forest, were
Theodor Won Karman. professor OF
aeronautics and director Of the Dan
iel Guggenheim Laboratory at Cali
fornia Institute of Technology: Will
liam Hovgaard, professor of naval de-
sign at Massachusetts, Institute OF
Technology; Stephen Timoshenko
professor OF engineering mechanics at
the University Of Michigan; r. A.
Millikan. director of the Norman
Bridge laboratory of physics and chair
man OF the Executive Council at Cali
fornia Institute of Technology; Frank
B. Jewett, president of Bell Telephone
Laboratories. and Charles F. Ketter-
ing. president of General Motors Re-
search Corp.
Expert on CorrOsiOn.
Prof. De Forest is described by the
Navy as "a leader in the study Of the
effect of superficial irregularities such
as corrosion and scratches on the
strength and life of parts which are
subject to dynamical stresses" Drs.
Millikan, Jewett and Kettering are
assertedly men of broad experience
and sound judgment in the general
field Of scientific research.
Naval officials today recalled that
there was no evidence to support

ing Of facts of the Court Of Inquiries
headed by Rear Admiral Orin @.

FORREST CITY, Ark, July 27.-
Senate Majority Leader Joe T. Rob-
inSon voiced a singing denunciation
hefe Thursday of political groups
which, he said, had for their purpose
the discrediting Of the national Demo-

PARTYDOM|NAT|ON.
BY CHARITY SEEN
Government Aid Policy
Could Be Expanded to
CoerCe Votes.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

President Roosevelt's attack on cor
porate contributions to private charity
goes deeper than mere objection
to the proposed bill sponsored by
Catholic, Protestant and Jewish char
tiles throughout the Nation, whereby
gifts shall be exempted up to 5 per
cent of the net income.
Since Mr.. RooSevelt's opposition is
not only to any form Of tax exemp-
ton but to what he calls purchases
Of good will" the impression Is
growing that he believes charitable
work in America should very largely
be controlled by the Government and
handled by public funds.
Thus, if private philanthropy can
not raise from individuals enough
money to offset the losses through
failure of corporations to give the
burden will be transferred to the
Federal Government.
This means that the Federal Gov
ernment will become a welfare agency
as a permanent thing and that all
the political intrigue and irregularity
which has attended the relief pro-
grams will be multiplied many times
Political Yoke Probable.
Local politics has crept into the en-
ployment and relief services. but. If
the Federal Government is the dis
penser of social aid, the hold of the
administration in power on those who
have received benefits will become
much stronger than anything encom-
passed. for instance, by the agricul-
tural benefit plan.
The President insists that stock
holders should have the right to do
their own giving for charitable pur-
poses and that corporations as such
ought not to make contributions to
charity. fthis is so, then all pension
systems hitherto set up by corporations
for their own employees become subject
to New Deal criticism. In fact, the
administration today is fighting against
an amendment sponsored by Senator
Clark of Missouri to the social security
bill, whereby pension systems already
in effect in private companies shall
not constitute a credit against the
proposed Federal pension system to be
based on the pay roll tax. This means
that, to avoid duplication. many Of
them will be abolished.
Roosevelt Refuses Voice.
Mr.. Roosevelt has not allowed the
stockholders of corporations generally
to say whether they prefer their money
spent directly for benefits to their en-
ployes through their own pension
systems or through the Federal Gov
ernment The stockholders, in fact,
will be compelled to accept the dictum
of the President for federally-con-
trolled system Of workers compensa-
ton.
recent study by the Cleveland
Community Fund showed that, on
checking the names Of individuals
benefited by social welfare work, the
percentage of employees Of Cleveland
corporations aided was about 80 per
cent. The check-up was as follows:

situation. 1t is hardly secret that the
Morgans and the Rockefellers have
not been getting along congenially.
The posed expression on the faces
of Senators lately is due to the fact
that they are all having their coun-
tenances registered on canvas and
paper. For some reason, they do not
want any publicity about it, but a car
toonist has been employed to do a
sketch of each Senator. Also an un-
usually large number of Senators are
sitting for oil portraits. Apparently
the sketches are to be used for cam
paign purposes.
Five More Dams?
T. v. A.-ers are about to make pre-
paratory surveys for five new dams in
the Muscle Shoals area with their
fingers crossed
An item of 100000 was added
to the sa4,000,000 T. v. A. fund in
the deficiency bill to cover cost of
these surveys. The Congressman from
the districts involved are the origi-
nators of the idea that more dams
should be built.
1t is whispered that T. v. A.
engineers are not as keen about
the idea as the Congressman, but,
rather than make a fuss, accepted
the funds for surveys.
The Congressman who climbed
aboard the water wagon with such
loud hurrahs a few months ago has
