bureau in her bedroom. He said
he returned to the room after the

U. S. AIDE SETS
STEADY idle At
4 TO 5 MILLION
Relief Load Is Placed at
One-HaIf Total

BOSTON, Sept. 16 U.N.S0,
The United States must expect q
permanent unemployment Of be
tween 4,000,0 900 and 5000, 900 per
sons. and q relief load Of approx
mately half this number, Corning
ton Gill, assistant WPA Admin
istrator, told the Municipal
Finance Officers Association con
vention today.
Encouraging as are the hopes
Of continued business recovery,
Gill said, "it would be folly on my
part. to look forward to any
thing like the complete disappear
ance Of the unemployment prob
lem, and, with it, the disappear
ance Of the unemployment relief
problem.

conclusions from an analysis Of
the underlying causes Of our
present unemployment, we must
expect a permanent unemploy-
ment Of between four and five
million, as well as a relief load
equivalent to somewhat more
than half Of this figure.
even to reach this condition
presupposeS the success Of the
governmental program aiming
at industrial sterilization and
the mitigation Of the effects Of
the trend toward displacement
Of men by machinery. It also
presuppoSes the continuance Of
the present scale Of meeting
relief needs, which has proved
its efficacy in fighting unem-
ployment by distributing pur-
chasing power where 1t is most
needed, and where it will be i'm
mediately spent"
Gill pointed out that unem-
ployment was reduced from about
10000 900 in March, 1888 to about
$500, 1000 now according to con-
SenSuS of estimates"

Slowly but steadily sinking, prob- ably ever since its completion in 1892, massive St. Joseph's Cathe- dral on Pennington Avenue is now so definitely out of line and of level that the Lockwood Green Company of New York, information ally known engineers, have been en- gagged to determine the cause and remedy and also the extent of any structural damage.
 Wise and Upson, local contractors, according to the Hartford Courant are also at work at the cathedral removing masonry in the basement church to enable the engineers to make extensive soil tests upon which to base their advisory report. The local contractors are also engaged in considerable repair work on the exterior of the cathedral, pointing up all cornices and peaks and re- building the roof of the sacristy.
 No Danger
 At the conclusion of the nvestl- gation the engineers will make a formal report to the diocese. It is not known when this will be made since the work will go on until the condition is fully revealed. There Is no imminent danger from the set ting as it has been going on for a period of years.
 Rt. Rev. Monsignor Thomas s. Duggan, rector of St. Joseph's Cathedral, who has served the par ish since the construction of the edifice, said Monday that he does not believe the condition to be se- rious, but stated that the soil on which it is built resembles quick sand. He believes that this soil condition extends from the rear of the church, beneath the sacristy, where the slant is most appreciable, across Pennington avenue.
 Wall Cracks Caused
 Alan Wise, Jr., of the Wise and Upson company, said that there are cracks in the walls of the church caused, in all probability, by the treacherous ground beneath. The original builders of the cathedral were said to have been unable to complete two tall spires planned by the architects because the soil on which the church rests would not bear the additional load. Square, topped towers were built instead.
 MT. Wise said, We don't know whether it's stopped settling. The engineers are going to test the soil by digging underneath. We are re- moving and uncovering several o1 the cracks in the walls. The build

 No Objections
 In view of the fact that the local truckers refused to move material from the Waterbury Buckle Go. and the Noera Mfg. Go. during the time of the two local c. I. O. strikes at those plants, Phillip Brainard and Alex Cashin said today that the two A. P. of L. representatives would doubtlessly be allowed into the meeting this evening by the Brass Workers to air their difficulties
 At press time today 1t was also learned that the following local la bor unions had been forwarded in- vitations to the session tonight: United Rubber Workers, local Bak- CTS union, the Building Trades coun- ell and the Waterbury Newspaper Guild. The last named unit will at- tend If the executive committee ap- proves accepting the invitation If representative from all these unions attend this evening, in addition to a few other local un- ions which will probably be invited before the time of the meeting. the session is one which will mark the formal beginning of a fusion be- tween the A. P. of L. and the c. I. o. in Waterbury.
 Unfair Test
 In regard to the question of boy cotting which was raised today re- porters were informed that the un- ions would refrain from any use of the wor. It was pointed out. how ever, that it has long been a prac- tice of labor unions to place certain companies on what they call an unfair" list"
 At the regular business session of the Brass Workers union, which will precede the open discussion, a brief report will be made in connection with the two local delegates who are now in Denver, Colorado, at the national convention of the Mine, Mill and Shelter workers union. It was thought originally that the men would be home by this time to de- liver a complete report but the con- vention will last longer than ex- pected and local representatives, Louis c. Willard and Charles OCon- nor, will not be home until the lat ter part of this week.

SIOO an Hour!

Fletcher Hargrave of A East Hawkins street today received Sl0O from the Travellers Insurance company for the single hour he worked for the Grove & Company truckers last April l5.
 But the $I00 does not represent any improved hourly rate of wages. nor does 1t indicate that Hargrave was doing a special task the $l00 is compensation for hand injuries suffered by Har- grave during his employment.
 The claimant was hired by the Grove & Company on April l5, and immediately went to work. A portion of his occupation consist ed of lifting large copper bars, and one hour after he started to work he pinched the fingers of both hands with one of the bars.
 Compensation Comml s Oner James M. Lynch today approved a stipulation in which Hargrave accepts the Sl00 in releasing the Grove & Company from any fu- ture claims.

Employment in Waterbury re- sumed its climb upward in July, a total of S6,sS7 persons being stead- fly employed in the city, according to the monthly business survey of the Waterbury Chamber of Com merce.
