Francis J. German, vice presi-
dent of the United Textile Work
ers, today will file is cases with
the National Labor Relations
Board charging discrimination
against members OF the organiza-
ton in violation of the Wagner
Connery labor relations act.
Mr.. German said that while
the new board has not had time
to perfect it's machinery, and
labor should exercise patience in
filing initial cases, members of
the textile group have been "un-
mercifully" penalized by employ
ers for union activity. He added:
"If the Wagner-Connery law
means what we think it means,
then the textile industry must
stop diScharging union workers
- because of union membership
and we are filing the Is most
aggravated cases in order to
determine the meaning of the
new law as affecting the textile
industry"

HOPE IS SEEN
| FOR DISTRICT
PENSIONS
President Plans to Set
Up Board Despite
Lack of Funds
By EARL GOODWIN

w
President Roosevelt thinks he
sees q way Of setting up a board
to administer the Districts old-age
pension law, regardless Of the fact
that the Huey Long filibuster left
the deficiency bill in the air, with
$125, 900 Of old-age money unavail-
able.
The President indicated today
that the same procedure can be
followed with respect to the local
old-age pension and general social
security program that he is evi-
IDENTIFY trying to- follow with re-
spect to the national social secur-
ity board. That is, to take money
from the relief funds for admins
trative purposes only.
That will permit the District
government to get the program
started; just as it will permit the
newly-appointed national Social
Security Board to set up it's office,
get it's paper work done, survey
the field and get in touch with the
States.
Plans Trip Home
BY the time Congress conveneS
the organization work in the Dis
trict Building and the Social Sc
curity Board will be in shape to
proceed with the disbursement of
funds to the aged, dependent
blind, crippled children, etc., now
left up in the air through the
Long filibuSter.
President Roosevelt said today
he is staying up until l o'clock
each morning digging through the
mass of paper work, signing of
bills, ETC., necessary. He is trying
to get away to Hyde Park, his
New York State home, by Satur-
day of this week.
The President spoke Of his
Western trip at the press confer
ence this morning; he intends to
leave here the latter part of Sep
tember, but has not fixed a date
He will speak at Boulder Dam at
the dedication exercises, at the
San Diego Exposition but may
not deliver any other addresses
He said he had not worked out
the trip but that he hoped to
come home through the Panama
Canal.
To Sign Coal Bill
The Guffey Coal control bill
over which a bitter controversy
was waged on constitutionality,
will be signed as soon as Senator
Guffey and Representative Snyder
OF Pennsylvania can go to the
executive offices for the ceremony.
The President will sign the neu
trality resolution as soon as he
gets to it. He would not make
any comment on the resolution
with its strict prohibition against
shipments of arms and munitions
to warning foreign countries, ex.
cept to say that it seemed to be
the need at the moment. It has q
time limit expiring March /, and
the President said that Congress
would be in session by that time
and could make changes if
necessary.

Easy For Him, Says Huey


NEW YORK, Aug. % U.N.s).
Senator Huey P. Long of Louisiana
was haggard and weary as he
rested at his New York hotel to-
day, but the man who filibustered
President Roosevelt out Of his
deficiency bill still had enough
energy left to say a word or two
about the political situation.
Long blamed President Roose-
velt for the bills demise, declaring
the President had refused to allow
the House to vote on his cotton
loan measures. He declared:
mo Hitler, MussOlini or Stain
ever undertook to dictate to q
legislative body in such q
fashion"
AS for the next Presidential
campaign, he said:
"If the Democrats nominate
Roosevelt and the Republicans
name Hoover, Huey Long will
be your next President"

FARM TENANT BILL

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A debate limiting agreement asSur-
ing O vote early this week on the
bilion-dollar Bankhead farm tenant
bill came yesterday in the midst OF
discussion, which brought from DEM
ocratic Leader Robinson the asser-
ton that revolutionary" results were
not to be expected from the measure.
Robinson expressed the hope the
bill would help many deserving per-
sons to own their farms, but that he
did not expect revolutionary changes
from 1t.
His observation was prompted by
an assertion by Senator Gore, Demo-
crat, of Oklahoma that he felt GER
tain "the scheme will prove bitter
disappointment' to Robinson and its
other advocates.
Would Aid Tenants.
introduced by Senator Bankhead,
Democrat, of Alabsma, the bill would
create corporation financed by the
Government to help farm tenants and
share-croppers purchase the land
they work The corporation would
have an initial capitalization of $780,
100000 and an eventual borrowing
power Of 100000, 900.
ST do not expect revolutionary re-
suits from this BILL" Robinson told
Gore. "I think there are some that
do have an erroneous impression Of
what may be expected. Some feel it
is contemplated that all persons not
owners of their homes will be afforded
an opportunity to purchase them.
THE object of this legislation is
to afford a process of selection under
which those believed to possess the
ability and disposition to possess a
home will be able to do So"
Praises Older Method.
Gore said he doubted "if you can
equip a home, hand it over to some
one and expect him to appreciate it
as he would If by denial and self
reliance he had laid some sort of a
foundation for it."
Gore said the Governments duty
was to remove distractions and main
tain conditions under which people
might survive and succeed. Some be-
lieve a Government should render
affirmative help" Gore said, adding,
II still believe self denial, self-re-
lance and self-respect are the virtues
that made America great"
