NEWSPAPER GUILD
ASKS JOBS FOR ALL
Favors U. S. Academy of Arts to
Provide Work for Profes.
sional Men.
BY the Associated Press,

ST. LOUIS. June 10.-The Amer
lean Newspaper Guild took up the
gage as champion of the unem-
ployed today and prepared to fight
to obtain "a w. P A. job for every
able-bodied man in the country" at
prevailing union wages for a weeks S
work
Accepting the report of it's Com
mittee on Unemployment and w. P
A., the guild declared its intention
to seek creation of a Federal de-
partment of academy of arts to pro-
vide jobs for unemployed profess
sional and white collar" workers
in national cultural program. Plans
for a national unemployment serv-
ice for newspaper men also were un-
der consideration.
Local units were urged to increase
their membership by enrolling work
ers eligible under the newly adopted
plan to include advertising. circula-
ton, business and other unorganized
newspaper employees In the organiza-
ton.

BY JOHN c. HENRY.

Referring to the Supreme Court de-
cisions in the Schechter and Garter
cases, James A. Emery general coun-
sci of the National Association of
Manufacturers, today secuted the
constitutionality of the pending Black
Connery wage and hour bill.
Even under more recent decisions,
Emery declared, No support is given
to the theory that under the guise Of
regulating commerce" Congress might
exercise control Of hours and wages.
Shortly before the Senate and House
labor committees were asked to junk
the Black-Connery bill and throw
their support behind the Maloney bill
calling for an unemployment census
and the creation Of planned program
of e-employment.
This request was made by Austin T.
Levy, head Of the saltwater Worsted
Mills of Rhode Island, Connecticut
and Virginia.
A proponent of the original Black
Connery 30-hour week bill, Levy con-
tended that the program as contem-
plated in the Maloney bill is preferable
to the policing program contemplated
under the pending measure.
Sees No Choice.
There is practically no choice"
Levy said. as to the desirability Of high
wages and short hours adding that his
own company has paid the highest
wages" and made the most money"
of any concern in the worsted indus
try.
so far" he continued, I'VE have
failed to establish wage scale high
enough to support our civilization"
Decrying so-called subsistence wages,
Levy declared that profit" wage is
the only one of any value to a worker
Hourly wage rates are about as mis-
leading as anything that the mind Of
man ever conceived" the witness said
emphatically, I'VE must place our
working people on a yearly wage basis "
Turning to the pending bill, Levy
charged that it misses the point by
not making positive provision for re-
employment, that it imposes a super
human and blanket power upon the
administrative boad, and that It's ex-
emption provisions are unsound.
Advising Committees Urged.
Claiming that the healthiest in
dustrial movement of today is that
of decentralization, R. E. Wood, presi-
dent of Sears Roebuck Co., spoke q
word in favor of the differential dis
cretion vested in the board. To carry
this out Wood urged, also, that the
board be directed mandatorily to ap-
point advisory wage committees.

Par 70 in First Round
of Golf Title Play.
By the Associated Press.

BIRMINGHAM, Mich, June 10
Ripping two shots from par apiece as
they toured the course together in
sensational style, Big Ed Dudley Of
Philadelphia and Frank Walsh, rival
Chicago pro, posted pair of 70s today
to take the lead in the first round Of
the U. S. open golf championship at
the Oakland Hills Country Club.
Dudley missed a 5-foot putt on
the home green for 50 and chance
to gain undisputed lead. Big Eds
round included an eagle on the 491-
yard eighth, where he dropped l5-
foot putt. He three-putted the fifth
and missed putt of barely yard
on the fourteenth. But got brides on
the thirteenth and sixteenth.
Finishes With "a.
Walsh finished sensationally with
an incoming "a, two under par, thanks
to brides on the thirteenth, sixteenth
and eighteenth. His sensational
putting offset some wildness of the
tees.

ford. N. Y, pro who came home with
sub par 35-36-7l.
Dewey Longworth, Portland (Oreg)

The defending champion, Tony
Manero, was out in 80, two over par,

which was much hotter than ex-
pected.

i town We have had endless
complaints from ladies and gentlemen
who said they looked at the public clock
across the street and started out to
lunch, only to discover that it was twi-
light in the streets, and few snarls
from others who want to know why a
public clock is permitted to read "205"
one one side and "2:09" on the other,
at precisely the same moment.
This state of affairs almost caused
rift in one family, you may recall
the couple who kept accusing one an
other of not being on time for appoint
ments, and found out later that they
we're merely looking at different sides
of the same clock.
