towns 18th commencement.
Permanent Tenure Proposed.
He proposed that his economic
council. composed of representative:
from all occupations. sit permanently
in Washington as an unofficial but
recognized body to legislate for all the
people.
He said he would not change the
constitutional powers of Congress, anc
that recourse would be had to COM
pulsory or disciplinary legislation only
when cooperation was manifestly in
sufficient.
No single group could risk the charge
of gross self interest by opposing a
program issued by the council and
formulated in the full light of pub
lcity, he explained.
A consumer representative should
preside to assure neutrality, and the
man selected for the post should enjoy
the confidence of the various groups
but be identified with none Of them
he said.
He maintained that such an Or
canized economic body would pre-
serve the organic unity of society, be
powerful auxiliary to government

Urges Profit Share for Labor.
