NEW GERMAN JOB PLAN

MOT the least valuable way Of sizing up our
~ own unemployment program is to have
an occasional look at the things other nations
are doing TO solve the same problem
One Of the most instructive contr SITS is to
be found in Germany.
On April l, the Nad government begins
new assault on unemployment which Will have
the result of making every person under IS
a unit in a rigidly state-cOntrolled labor
scheme.
All jobs for persons under IS Will be at the
disposal OF the state. A young person holding
a Job viii be required 10 place his services
at the disposal Of the state-labor service. This
organization viii have the power TO send
him 10 work on a farm. 70 toll on a con-
struction project. or 10 enroll in a labor camp.
Thus the young worker Is to pass under
the sway OF a centralized. disciplined author
ity quite as rigid and strict as that Of military
CONSUMPTION. He viii not try to start his
career as soon as he gets out OF school; in
stead. he must work at jobs some one else
picks for him until he is halfway through his
2o's. and not until then can he choose his
own employment.
Now the reason for examining that scheme in
such detail here is not 10 find new basis for
criticism Of Herr Hitler, but simply to point out
that control Of this kind is the logical result
If anv nationwide authoritarian control of
the labor market by the central government.
once you depart from free, fluid labor
market you are headed. ultimately. toward
this or something like it. =.

We Killed Her

l. He would allow abatement orders to be
appealed in any competent court in the state
rather than in the courts Of Marion County.
2 He would require or permit referendum
elections on bond issues for the erection of
sewage disposal plants.
This is simply sly effort to throw mon
key wrench into the whole program. 1t allows
tinkering by local political machines who
responsible for the election Of judges and who
must call such referendum election. 1t
would permit tampering by swinish indus
tries with local influence.
Make no mistake about it, Senator Jern-
igan is merely for the perpetuation of 20 miles
Of open sewer in his own county and 1873
miles Of streaming filth throughout the state
GONE opposition is also developing from the
~ Senators who represent Sullivan and Lake
Counties. Sullivan has 100 miles of foul
streams! More than any other county. The
coal companies are responsible and they don't
want to clean up. They have cracked the
whip over the legislators
Lake is the second worse county with SIS
miles Of noisome streams. The steel compa-
MES are in a large part responsible They do
not want to clean up either.
The Senators who oppose this bill should
remember that they are representing all the
people Of the state-not a handful of Stone
Age industrialists.
The people WANT this nasty mess wiped
out. They will deal harshly at the polls with
legislators who vote for filth.
Is it possible that any Senator can face his
own conscience in the future and say calmly
with some other bereaved father or mother

DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR
VALUE is URGED

By P. S. Thomas.
This is how I look at it. First
the people of today, in regard to
money, put me in mind of us boys
when we used to play marbles. They
will try every scheme known to man
to get the best Of the other fellow
We spent hours, both honest and
dishonest, until we had so many
marbles we didn't know what to do
with them. Then, when the season
was over, we would shoot them all
away in a rubber band slingshot.
With our so-called money it seems
to be the same old scramble. Do
others or they will do you.
I remember way back when was
a small boy, Dad gave me a lot of
Confederate money. I was very
much surprised that no one would
take it. I think that is what Uncle

political racket, welfare racket, ETC..
and thus starting the ball of bust
ness to move through the avenue of
profits.
Suggest you call the attention of
the legislators at indianapolis to
this idea to the end they will have
rest from poker and chicken chasing.

It would make a fool laugh to see
these shovel leanerS or would-be
laborers trying to work. I remember
when I first came to Indianapolis II
years ago and now I can hardly be-

MY daughter was swimmer. She con-
w tracted an infectious disease in water
polluted by my city. and my neighbors-we
killed her"
This was the tragic statement of a heart
broken father TO The Indianapolis Times He
KNOWS about stream pollution.
So do hundreds Of other parents who have
watched their children writhing in the agony
of n.astoid and sinus infections
SO 90 the water companies who must
process with expensive chemicals the water
OF the state TO make it fit to drink.
So does the farmer who watches his live
stock die after drinking from poisoned streams.
The destruction of few cattle sounds trifling
but it may mean the difference between pow
erty and comparative comfort to their owner.
So do the sportsmen who have watched
helplessly while greedy interests have killed
of the fish and wild life of the state with
poisoned water.
A bill is now before the state Senate which
would eliminate this disgrace. 1t has teeth.
It can force short-sighted industry and myopic
municipal bosses to clean up this mess
Both Democrats and Republicans pushed
it through the House with tremendous ma
jority. Both parties viewed the measure for
what 1t is-an essential law for the health of
our children.

DOG-POISONER SPOILED
HOME OF FAMILY.

By Mrs Charles w. Reid.
I would like to tell every one of a
flend who, without any provocation,
poisoned my pet dog. 1t might
have been just a dog to other peo-
pie. but she was everything to US.
We had her for eight years and we
loved her like child. If it is any
satisfaction to the person who did
it, he has killed all The JOY in our
home.

fold imperfections, certainly. Some of these
are inherent in any attempt to put people
back to work before the slow processes of re-
covery can get uncoiled, and others arise from
the fact that we are seeking to do the job
through voluntary means.
But it is worth remembering that to give
up this voluntary system in favor of some
thing quicker and more efficient is first step
on the road to a despotic regime like this one
in Germany.
A certain amount of ineficiency is the price
of democratic government. BY trying to build
unemployment around our existing industrial
framework, we are preserving our political
freedom.
If the job seems to be moving slowly, it is
helpful to remember the alternatives.

AnOther Welcome
To Roosevelt Talk
OF NelU Dealers
Return From Vacation
Next Week Seen as
: Opportunity.

President Roosevelt is expected back
at the White House early next week
from his vacation cruising and fishing
on the Florida coast, and friends of
the administration are wondering if
he Is again to be accorded reception
by the gentlemen from Capitol Hill
when he arrives at Union Station.
When Mr.. Roosevelt returned from a
similar vacation last Spring he was
greeted at the station by large group
OF Senators and Representatives, who
had marched in body from the Cap
itol with the Marine Band playing
lively airs.
Mr.. Roosevelt took the occasion of
that brass-band welcome as a desire
on the part of certain Democratic
members of the Senate and House to
ask his forgiveness for their mis-
nehavlor while he was away and to
let him know that they loved him just
the same and intended to be good
boys In the future.
Tne President said that while he
did not intend to be vindictive or
harbor a personal grudge, he did in
tend to f1ght-if that was what Con-
gress was looking for.
While away on his vacation this
year no vetoes have been overridden
and there has been no real spirit of
open mutiny. But on the eve of his
departure. he gave party leaders in
the Senate and House memorandum
of what he expected to be accom-
plished In the matter of legislation
while he was away, but thus far very
little has been done.

In addition the bureau is registering

Committee of the Washington Board
of Trade has opened a housing bu-
reau to assist in supplying accomoda-
tions for its temporary residents.
Hotels already have extraordinarily
large reservation lists and thousands
are expected without making previous
arrangements for quarters while here.
The reservations include some as far
ahead as August. although the influx
of visitors is expected to reach its
peak at least two months earlier.
Roy Miller, a member of the COM
mittee's convention staff, has been
put in charge of the housing bureau
