Flat Glass Industry
Paralyzed by Strikes

EXTENSION of the glass workers
IL strike to plants in Toledo,
Charleston, w. Va, and Shreveport.
La, brought the fiat glass industry
almost to a standstill. The clos
ing of these factories is directed
against the automobile industry, but
the Ford company is equipped to
produce its own glass and the other
automobile makers are said to
have enough glass in stock for a
month. 1t was estimated that A.
300 men were idle at the plants of
the Libby Owens and Pittsburgh
Plate Glass companies.
The new strikes were called after
leaders of the Federation Of Flat
Glass Workers failed to reach an
agreement with Representatives of
the two companies concerning
strikes already in progress. Libby
Owens also was negotiating for a
new union contract, their old one
having expired.
Employers said the impasse was
reached as a result of the unions
determined demands for a closed
shop, a checkoff system of union
dues, and wage increases.
Glen w. McCabe, president of the
Glass Workers federation, denied
the union was demanding a closed
chOn or that tho chaclxOff cvctarp
had to be granted.

Senator Peter Norbeck
of South Dakota Dies

d DETER NORBECK, United States
l. senator from South Dakota since
1920, died at his home in Redfeld,
S. D., at the age of sixty-six after
a long illness from heart disease
and cancer of the tongue and jaw.
Norbeck, a Republican with radi-
cal tendencies, entered politics in
1908 as a member of the state SEN
ate. Later he was lieutenant gov
ernor and governor of his state
and then was elected to the
United States senate. In that body
he was an insistent advocate of ag-
ricultural relief measures.
Norbeck's death reduced to 16 the
number of Republicans in the SEN
ate, but if the selection of his sue
cessor is left to the Republican gov
ernor-elect, there would be again
II. However it may be that Tom
Berry, the Democratic governor
about to go out of office, will be
named to fill out Norbeck's term.

Other towns in the stricken region
were wrecked. Roads from the
capital were broken up and COM
munications were destroyed, so that
accurate information was slow in
coming out.
All of the towns affected by the
quake are in the vicinity of the
San Vicente volcano. The area, i'm
portant in manufacturing and ag-
riculture, is in the rich tobacco
and indigo-growing region.
Gen. Maximiliano Martinez, presi-
dent of Salvador, fastened to the
scene of the disaster to take per-
sonal charge of relief measures,
and physicians and medical supplies
were rushed from San Salvador, to-
gether with military detachments.

Tohn Hamilton Remains
Republican Chairman

John HAMILTON is still chair
- man of the Republican national
committee. At a meeting in Chi
cago IA of the 76 members in at
tendance rejected his resignation,
and he responded: I'm gratifed,
and I'll keep right on working"
Mr.. Hamilton was then voted
salary of $4,000 year and base
expense account of $4,000 annually,
and will be required to put in all
his time on the task of rebuilding
the party and reducing the deficit.
This is the first time national
chairman has been put on a full
time salary basis.
Before adjournment Hamilton
was empowered to appoint group
of Republicans soon to formulate
plan to bring the party funds out of
the red. Treasurer c. B. Goodspeed
reported that the campaign expendi-
lures were Sc, $40, 776, and that the
deficit was $901,50

a strike in the $4,000, 100000 indus
try might result IF the industry
continues to employ its dog-in-the-
manger attitude" in dealing with
trade unions.
Thereupon the delegates adopted
resolutions unanimously condemn
ing the company union plan as
farce" and establishing a new or
ganization called the "CIO repre-
senatatives council" with this dec
laration of principles:
l. All steel workers be organized
into a national industrial union.
2. Employee Representatives use
their influence to enroll the steel
workers into the steel workers or
ganizing committees campaign.
8. All steel workers be thorough
ly informed by employee represen-
tatives who know from experience
that the company union is device
of the mana cement and totally un-
able to win any major concessions
for the steel workers.
4. CIO employee representatives
remain inside the company union
for reasons obvious to all.
The wage demands are:
A $1.24 day increase for all en-
ployees receiving over SIS day.
A 80 hour, five day week.
Paid vacations of one week for
employees of two years service and
two weeks for employees of five or
more years service.
Time and one-half pay for over
time within the regular working
week.
Double time for Sundays and hol-
idays.

Half a Billion Wanted
for Works Relief

LARRY HOPKINS, WPA admin
IL istrator, and Harold L. Ickes,
PWA administrator, we're called in
to conference with President Roose-
velt and plans were laid for seeking
from congress an appropriation of
$500, 000,00 to continue the federal
works relief program until next
June 30. Hopkins reported that the
funds on hand would scarcely last
through January and that quick ac-
ton is necessary if the program
is not to be interrupted. The esti-
mate on the money needed was
based on the fact that the same
amount was taken from WPA funds
for drouth relief. Ickes states that
his WPA program would release a
substantial number of unemployed
from WPA rolls.

The largest still found in this sec

The still, Of 2,000-gauon ca

up, officers said. Thousands of
gallons Of mash we're bubbling
in barrels and just about ready
to be run off, and more than three
tons Of sugar and large quantities
of rye and other ingredients we're
ready for a second batch, officers
said.
No one was at the still when the
capture was made, and officials
are searching land titles in an
effort to learn who owns the prop

for requesting a large Govern
ment program. There is the COM
mercial angle. Aviation, CONNER
cial aviation, in this country is
now in a stage Of flux. Big things
are soon going to happen. The
industry on it's own hook has
forged ahead and will continue to
forge ahead. We will be startled
by it's advances. Engineers are
quietly making improvements that
will soon place the United States
further in advance of the other
nations.
Therefore, think it would be
wise If the Government would ad-
vocate or institute aviation courses
in public schools. Soon the techni-
cal branch of the industry will be
far in advance of the all too few
pilots that we now have. Youth
is eager to fly and if the Govern
ment would devote itself to a pro-
gram of this sort I'm sure it would
have plenty of applicants.

ment agencies, bureaus. and any
thing smacking of politics.
1t would not be asking too much
to request the Government to set
aside or appropriate at least $751;
100000 a year for a program to
develop every branch of the avia-
tion industry. 1t is needless for
me to point out that there would
be untold benefits to the country
if such a program were adopted.
There is no doubt in my mind
as to the vital necessity for an
adequate air defense. AS chairman
Of the Senate Air Safety Commit
tee, I have come in contact with
many branches of aviation and
those persons who comprise the
aviation world. They all hold the
view that unless country has a
large air force as a protective
measure, the rest of it's defenses
are almost useless.
