SEE APPEAL By PRESIDENT
n. E. Of 1. Exerts All Its
Strength in Behalf Of
Prevailing Wage

Washington, Feb. 25.-(R,-The
work relief struggle became Monday
= quiet contest by opponents seeking
to apply mass pressures for and
against the McCarran amendment
calling for prevailing wages on pub
lie works.
First returns from the country, as
assembled In senatorial mailbags,
Monday were represented as about
evenly divided on the wage issue
which has deadlosked the bill.
That was the verdict of early morn
ing letters TO senators who voted for
and against the prevailing wage re-
quirement which President Roosevelt
opposed. So far. most found the coun-
try's attitude had not been reflected
in q greatly increased mail.
A mobilization in behalf Of work
relief that will make the bonus army
look like Boy Scout parade in COM
parison" was foreseen by Paul v.
Betters. director of the United States
conference Of mayors.
At his Hyde Park home, President
Roosevelt watched silently for M.
tional reaction to the ~ to 43 senate
vote which attached the prevailing
wage amendment against his wishes
and forced Democratic leaders to re-
turn the bill to the appropriations
committee.
\ May Ask Reconsideration
There was some belief Mr.. Roooe-
welt may, at later day, ask the SEN
ate to reconsider the bill.
Betters said that telling $4,000
workers they can not work, regard.
less Of the reason, Is to toment social
unrest which will be unparalleled"
He added:
when it Is considered that three
and half million workers represent
close to Is million dependent family
members now on federal relief. this
congressional sentence Is more severe
and serious than any action taken by
any government in the history Of the !
world"
Meanwhile this 74th congress, far
more prone than its predecessor to
debate and criticize administration
measures, approached its third month
with practically all the big controver-
sizes unsettled. The pace Of major !
legislation through committees was
proving so slow that both houses had
only relatively minor business to do |
Monday.
AS administration leaders strove to |
rc-assert control after the defeat on |
the prevailing wage amendment, the !
capital wondered whether President !
Roosevelt would make another OF his |
fireside chats to the nation soon In |
behalf of his fight for security !
wages"
Administration strategists, who had |
the $4.88O, 000,000 work and relief bill |
sent back to the committee after the
McCarran amendment had been
tackled on to it over White House op-
position. watched Monday for what
they hoped would be q tidal wave Of
kilograms and letters in behalf Of
the administrators plan Of $50-a.
month wages.
