MORE PEOPLE ARE
SEEKING THE Jobs
But There Is Improvement
and Machine Is Not Hurt
ing, Is Claim
BY CHARLES p. STEWART
Central Press Staff Writer

Washington, April 25.-"More Facts
on Technology and Employment" is
the title of a little pamphlet recently
issued by the Machinery and Allied
Products Institute-an organization
with which I am not much acquaint-
ed. Obviously it is very resentful of
the charge that industrial mechanical
ton is responsible for unemployment
here and elsewhere.
Nor do I know what were the orig
inal Ten Facts" given to the world
by the same institute.
The More Facts however, are so
intelligent study of the unemploy-
ment problem that they seem to me
to be worth serious consideration
Their conclusion is that there can De
no such thing as over-production I'M
til every one has everything he would
like to have-and we all know that
we have not yet reached the satura-
ton point.
SOME IMPROVEMENT
Employment, to be sure, has not
picked up much yet, but there has
/ been some improvement estimated
| by the National Industrial Conference
Board at e63,000 since January, 1884
i For this improvement the Machin-
cry and Allied Products Institute
quoting labor departmental statistics
claims .80.4 per Get of the credit for
mechanical industry, although mech
anized industry employs, normally
only one-fourth of the total number
of the country's wage earners.
In other words, Suppose" says
President John w. O'Leary of the in
stitute -"that machinery had displaced
every factory worker who was en-
ployed in 1929. The total would have
been only 8.8 millions-5ut factory
employment today is IL millions, or
only IT. million below the 1929 peak.
All the rest Of the unemployed are of
other OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES, masons
clerks, statesmen, walters, maids, gar
deners-millions of whom certainly
have not been displaced by mech
anization"
MORE SEEKING JOBS
1t is not, reasons the institutes
pamphlet, that there are, proportion
ately, fewer jobs than there used to
be--Put more individuals, proportions
ately, are seeking them.
The pamphlet admits that accurate
figures are unavailable but it esti-
mates that 270 Americans per 1000
were in the wage earning class 100
years ago, as against 400 per 1000 at
present.
"The chief causes of this increase, !"
explains the pamphlet, "are:
Il. A rapidly declining birthrate
(smaller families) which has brought
an increasing concentration of the
population into the older age groups
persons of working age
"2. Greater attractiveness of work,
because it is pleasanter than former
ly..
%. A higher living standard call
ing for larger incomes"

G.. Q. r.. TO Fight
On Tariff Issue

tEv...irue from rage One.J
Dy. Postmaster General James A. Far
ley, has been unfortunate in the local
support it, has given. It's side usually
gets knocked out-to speak in Jim
Farleys own prize fight parlance.
Farley chose the, Kelly-Nash ma
chine in Illinois over Governor Henry
Horner, although presumably making
no decision. Horner refused to be
counted out; instead, he knocked out
his opponent Farley undoubtedly be-
lieved the ,Kelly-Nash machine was
needed to carry Illinois for President
Roosevelt. Farley now will have to
go on his hands and knees to Gov
ernor Horner.
| y Two years previously, Farley pick
cd conservative Mckee to beat the in
dependent New Dealish La Guardia
to win the New York mayoralty cleo
ton. La Guardia won-and many of
his supporters had unpleasant things
to say over the manner in which
President Roosevelt opposed those
who could give him the most aid. 4
Farley, of course, cannot under
stand that a single man, honest and
independent can lick a machine The
people pray for a strong courageous
man. Farley was brought up in the
political ,Tammany, which is as foul
as politics comes. He, himself, is far
above it., real general, with an hon
est faith in President Roosevelt's
ideals. But he cannot forget his early
environment and training. He never
will learn that David can defeat a
Goliath.

He cited the fact that the listing pc

that the law requires that all property

and asking for copies of it," Fulk said.
"The fact that fatalieis from, automo-

went into effect November 1, 1885, is
making the other states sit up and
take notice."
The fact that more than $500 driv-
