LOS ANGELES, May 14-Problems
In the handling of relief funds are
expected to form the main subjects
for discussion at the annual Pacific
Coast regional meeting of the United
States Conference of Mayors opening
here tomorrow.
Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia of

conference, and Mayor Frederick w.

national organization, will attend
National headquarters issued state
ment in Washington yesterday saying
any reduction in the $1,5OOOOO, 900
relief request of President Roosevelt is
"unthlnkable. The statement pointed
out that cities and States put up
81 PA, ,953 900 for relief last year.
Mayor Mansfield, arriving here last
night, in an interview, said:
Business conditions are improving
throughout the East, yet in every CITY
1 have visited people ask why so many
stlh are on direct relief when the
Federal Government has provided en-
ployment for hundreds of thousands.
In Boston, for example, we still
have $4,000 cases on relief. Despite
Federal jobs, our welfare ills do not
seem to decrease. More men should
be absorbed by private industry.
Unemployment transcends State
lines. The world does not owe every
man living, but we should say the
United States owes every man an op-
portunity to earn one"

AS lost wages Of idle steel workers

attention from the strike He said
personal investigation disclosed the
following facts:
Republic Steel Corp. has been
bringing food and provisions into the
plants for the strike breakers by means
OF alrplanes. Trains were unavailable,
because the several brotherhoods of
railroad men have refused to bring
trains into the plants which are on
strike, carrying food, -breakers
or guns and ammunition. Solely for
the purpose of haunting the strike
breakers into committing illegal acts,
the Republic Steel Corp. shipped
through the United States mails few
packages of provisions, food and cloth
ing These packages could not possibly

these plants. The strike pickets felt
that such use of the United States
mails was completely unwarranted.
