a joint congressional committee
holding hearings on the bill.
Sidney Hillman, president OF
the Amalgamated Clot him 6

economic crisis.
George H. Davis, of Kansas

be set aside.
Hillman's testimony also

following q conference between

An official announcement from

the new organization is expected
this week, and it was learned to-

At yesterdays conference, held
behind closed doors with John L.

speculation whether it would be

If this effort to get new school

many observers maintain here that

do by legislation in the last four ses-

little doubt that this plan would make
of the State superintendent one OF
the most powerful political figures in
the State, if he can persuade the gov

with regard to the appointment of
the new school commission and a
new executive secretary. But it is
doubted if it would increase the eff
ficiency of the schools any, since it
would make of every city and county
school system a political machine,

perintendent, many are convinced.
