i. s. URGED TO AID
INDUSTRIAL SHIFT
Relief Methods Criticized by
Council in Offering Plan
to Create Jobs.
Ry the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Criticizing Government relief meth
DDS as threatening to demoralize
stranded" populations, business
leaders put forward today plan to
provide such persons jobs by moving
certain industries from city TO country.
The Commerce Departments Busl-
ness and Advisory Council-designate
by the Roosevelt administration as
the speaking tube through which in
dustry conveys its ideas to the New
Deal-urged new Government
agency with a revolving fund of 81
100000 to lend to industries that
can operate more advantageously in
rural districts than in crowded
metropolitan centers."
Such loans might, it was suggested
cover the cost of moving. Additional
loans mot to exceed the actual pay
rolf Of the concerns might be made
for limited number of months.
Advocated by Hartman.
The decentralization Of certain in
dustries has long appealed to severa
prominent business leaders. Henry
1. Hartman, president of the Cham
ber of Commerce of the United States
advocated it some time ago. The
report of the Advisory and Planning
Council. which is composed of s.
business leaders headed by H. P
Kendall of Boston, is expected tc
lead to renewed discussion of the idea
Secretary Roper, who made the re-
port public, did not say what action
he would take. His announcement
said. however, that he did not believe
decentralization should be carried Sc
far as to harm property owners and
business conditions in cities. He
tended toward the idea of building
branch plants to rural communities
rather than moving the main plants
The report, based upon study by
a committee headed by William A.
Julian, treasurer of the United States,
said "the Government, through its
various agencies, is now relocating a
great many families from congested
cities and placing them in partial self
supporting communities.
"A large portion of the industrial
workers still living in the congeSted
centers Of our country should be re-
moved to partial self-Sustenance COM
munities, where they can enjoy leisure
time and supplement their cash in
come by their own efforts on a plot OF
ground" the report continued.
Therefore, We find that population
is now being and should further be
decentralized, but that industry is not
being decentralized TO keep pace with
the population, and there is no cash
income provided for these rural CON-
munities except Government relief
money
There is, the report said. type OF
industry which, because of seasonal
production, cannot furnish employ
ment the year round 1t suggested
this type move to small towns where
the people get part of their living from
the soil.

U.S. "BLACKL|STS"
RUSSIAN TRADE
RetaIiatory Measures Will
Be Taken Against Others
Who Discriminate.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The Government took steps TO-DAY
to retaliate against its antagonists
in international trade by BLACKLIST
ing" nations which discriminate
against American goods
First to go on the black list" was
Soviet Russia. Negotiations toward
settlement OF the Russian debt to
America collapsed last week. thereby
blasting hopes of immediate trade re-
rival between the two countries.
Until certain unspecified questions
concerning American-Soviet rela-
tions are clarified, 1T was said, the
Communist state would not be per-
mitted to benefit from a tariff reduce

United States 1t ordinarily might
have been expected to receive the
same tariff benefit extended to Brazil
under a generalization Of benefits"
which usually follows such accords.
Oficials declined to reveal the
names of other offending nations, but
it was expected they will be an
nounced on the occasion OF the sign
ing of a pending trade agreement
with Belgium, which is among 10
now being negotiated.
The "black list" being compiled by
departmental experts comprising the
Trade Agreements Committee, is in
tended for use as a basis for deter
mining what countries, not parties to
reciprocal trade agreements with the
United States, would be allowed to
benefit from reductions in tariff this
Government grants under such ac-
cords.
Benefits to Be Denied.
Countries which apply quota or
other import restrictions-considered
discriminatory against American prod
ucts-are to be entered on the roster
and ruled out Of tariff benefits until
they reverse their policies.
At present there are 35 countries
with exchange control regulations or
some other form of import limitations,
that affected American trade. Among
them are France and Germany. but
it was stated that not all these could
be claSsed as discriminating against
this country.

Labor has more to gain by recognizing
this fact than by asking for a pre-

Dor does not represent more than 10

ployed in industry in this country.

SHOUSE ASSA|LS
GRANT OF POWER
Democracy Is Issue, He
Says, in Hitting Relief
Bill Authority.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, February A.
Jouett ShouSe, president OF the Amer
ican Liberty League, aSsailed the ad-
ninistration's S4,880.0 900 900 work-re-
lief bill today as the most revolu-
tionary, unjustified and unwiSe at
tempt at absolute delegation of legis-
lative authority to the Executive ever
witnessed in this country"
If it passes Congress and goes un-
challenged in the courts, he asserted
in an address prepared for delivery to
the Philadelphia Country League of
Women Voters, lit is certain indica-
tion of the disintegration Of the form
of government under which we have
lived and in which we have professed
to believe"
Bureaucracy Held Issue.
"The issue" he added, lis whether
democracy shall continue to hold sway
in this Republic or whether bureau
cracy will take its place"
The measure is now before a Senate
committee after having passed the
House.
Attacking the provision of the bill
giving the President wide authority to
allot work-relief expenditures as he
saw fit, Shouse charged that it was
''railroaded" through the House with
q out adequate hearing by committees,
without the opportunity for adequate
" amendment or revision"
, More and more of recent years the
Congress has shown a disposition to
abdicate its functions" he continued.
IS 1T has passed on to the executive
branch of the Government one power
after another which belongs to the
legislative branch until it is not sur
prising that the impression should
= have gone abroad that the Congress
" of late has become little more than a
rubber stamp to approve executive
. direction"
: Doesn't Question Relief.
s The speaker said he did not ques-
!. ton the need of direct Federal appro-
81 priation relief.
The amount of money contem-
plated is greater than the total an
. nual cost of the Government in any
year from 1922 to 1881, inclusive" "
Shouse said.
THE authority conferred upon the
Executive gives him the opportunity
to reorganize the governmental ma
chinery should he see fit; to create
a vast new bureaucracy not answer
able to the Congress, free from civil
service restrictions and, therefore,
open to political spoilsmen. and to
make rules and regulations within his
own discretion, without restraint, for
the violation of which fines may be
imposed upon any citizen
