LABOR 7 0P|C
OF CLERIC

Specialization in labor brought
about through the development of
machines and the ultimate dehu-
manizing of industry were stressed
as the root causes of labor unrest
by the Rev. j. w. R. Mcguire, Of
st. Viator'S College, Bourbonnais,
ILL.,, at the Committee on Industrial
Relations of the National Catholic
Welfare Conference today.
Father Mcguire traced the peri
DDS of industrial development from
the earliest age to the crisis facing
industry today.
Describing the labor vote" as
purely a mythical scare held over
the heads of politicians, he stated
that labor's biggest mistake prior
to the advent of the New Deal was
to involve itself in politics.
DR.. George Brown, of Seton Hill
College, Greensburg, Pa, spoke on
the origin of modern social legis-
lation in England and America.
Talks on labor problems and re.
cent legislation will be continued
throughout the week.

ELLIOTT SNAGS
BLOOM PLAN

Efforts Of Representative Sol
Bloom CD of New York, to
commemorate the makers of the
Constitution, as he did for
George Washington several years
ago, have run into a snag. The
snag is perSonified by Acting
Comptroller Richard N. Elliott.
Representative Bloom, director
general of the United States
C on titution Sesquecentennial
Commission, has been planning
an exhibition of oil portraits of
delegates to the Constitutional
convention and the signers OF
the Declaration of independence,
with members OF their families,
to be centered at the Corcoran
Art Gallery from November
through next February.
He had planned to borrow
approximately 200 portraits from
their owners and bring them
here at Government expense, and
asked Elliott's permission for
storage, packing and insurance,
without competitive bidding, in
order to induce owners to let
Uncle Sam use the heirloons
Bloom named a local storage
company as adequate to handle
the problem.
In a decision today, however,
Elliott baked at such plans. He
said a study of the law setting
up Representative Blooms com,
mission revealed that there was
no appropriation for borrowing
the portraits or paying for their
care. The only thing possible
under the law, he said, would be
the general distribution of re.
productions of the likenesses of
Americas first constitutional
delegates.

Revision Of the wages and hours
bill to prohibit strikes, while nego-
tiations to settle industrial dis
putes are under way, was urged be
fore a joint congressional commit
tee today by Horace Herr, repre-
Senting fresh-fruit and vegetable
distributors.
Declaring the industry was in
favor of the principle of a maxi.
mum work week and minimum
weekly wage for industries in
interstate commerce, but warning
that the majority of penalties in
the proposal were placed upon
employers, Herr asked that labor
be made to carry its share of re.
sponsibility for industrial peace.
He said:
eff and when the labor stand
ards board, by order establishes
a minimum wage and maximum
week and an industry is meet
ing the conditions as to those
and other labor practices, is it
unreasonable to ask that q labor
organization, active in that in
duStry will refrain from strike
for q definitely specified time
during which time negotiations
are in prOgreSs?"
