President Warns Business
to Aid EMPLOYMENT


CALLING from Charleston aboard
- the cruiser Indianapolis for
Buenos Aires and the Pan-Amerlcan
peace conference, President Roose-
welt directed the release Of a state
ment in which he announced that
the government will continue to
spend money on work relief pro-
gram until July l, 1888 at least. 1t
is estimated that congress will be
asked to appropriate as much as
81 500, 100000 for relief in the next
session.
Although he professed himself
gratified at the inroads upon unem-
ployment by industry, the President
commented upon the fact that pri-
vate business has not yet absorbed
vast masses of the unemployed and
that millions of persons remain on
the Works Progress administration
pay roll and other governmental
agencies.
Mr.. Roosevelt declared it was
"widely known" that many of the
largest industries will not hire work.
ers over forty years of age. To a
large extent, he charged, this policy
is responsible for the relatively
large number of older workers on
relief. And industry must expand
opportunities for the hiring of un-
skilled workers, he said.
The mayors of the United States,
in annual conference in Washington,
were gratified by assurances from
both Harold Ickes, head of the
PWA, and Harry Hopkins, head of
the WPA, that the administration
will not cease its spending efforts
to keep alive the emergency or
CARNATIONS intended to deal with
the unemployment problem.

Labor Wants More Money
for La Toilette Inquiry

WHILE it was figuring what to
w do in the matter Of the sus-
pended c. l. o. unions, the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor in conven-
ton at Tampa dealt with number
of other topics. Among these was
the adoption of report of the COM
mittee on legislation demanding of
congress additional appropriations
for the special senatorial Sub-com-
mittee investigating violations OF
civil liberties. This group, headed
by La Toilette of Wisconsin, has
confined its Investigations almost
wholly to activities of employers in
combating unions or in protecting
their plants against mob violence
during strikes. A large part of the
testimony taken has concerned
agencies which furnish professional
strikebreakerS or which sell arms
and tear gas to industrial corpora
tions.
The report said: Millions of dol
lars will be available to defeat the
La Toilette investigation. If our re-
ports are as accurate as we believe
them to be, then the greatest and
most adroit lobby that has ever op-
Grated in Washington is being or
ganized to kill this astounding eX-
pose of the raising, financing and
directing of private armies"
Officials of detective agencies that
supply guards for industrial plants
assert the real purpose Of the La
Toilette investigation is to make con-

Germany and Japan Unite
to Combat Communism

COMPLICATING the already com.
~ plex European situation and di-
rectly threatening war is the alleged
fact that Germany and Japan have
united to fight the spread of COM
munism, and that their pact is ex-
pected to be adhered to by Italy
and perhaps various central Eu-
ropean nations. This is of course
directed mainly against soviet Rus
sia, and Moscow is actively aware
of the menace. 1t is understood
that the agreement provides that
Germany and Japan shall keep
strong military forces in East Prus-
sia and Manchukuo respectively;
that the two nations shall exchange
military information and orders,
and that in certain contingencies
Germany shall supply Japan with
war materials.
Russia sent word to Toxic that it
would not cooperate further in
granting Japanese fishing conces-
sions until the reported Japanese
German military pact was cancelled.
An immediate source of friction
between Russia and Germany was
the conviction at Novosibirsk of E..
Strickling, German engineer, on
charges of sabotage and plotting
against the soviet regime. He and
eight other defendants were SEN
fenced to death and were said to
have confessed their guilt. The Ger
man ambassador to Moscow asked
that Strickling's execution be post
poned until the embassy had time to
study the evidence and file formal
protest.

Divided Court Upholds
Work Insurance Law

NEW YORK'S states unemploy-

held by an equally divided United

There was no formal opinion and
no announcement of the lineup of

In the opinion of legal experts the

GERMANY'S CHURCH
PRESS LOSES ITS
FREEDOM BY ORDER

BERLIN, Feb. 10. (UP)-The
independence of both Catholic and
Protestant church papers was
abolished yesterday by decree of
Joseph Goebels, minister of prop
uganda, regardless of the concord
at guaranteeing the freedom of
publications under auspices of the
Catholic clergy.
This means that the editors law
governing the Nazi-controlled lay
press is now applicable to all pa
pers except those publishing only
official church announcements.
Goebbels' decree said the mea-
sure was necessary because the
church papers misused their free
dom by discussing pclitics and
abusively commenting on govern
ment measures.
Under the editors law, editors
of church papers in the future
must be "Aryans pledged unre-
servediy, to support. government
measures" This regulation, it was
believed, would restrict further
church facilities to combat Nazi
religious propaganda.
