Labor Conditions In
Millinery Industry Studied

New York City (ILNS)-At the re-
quest of the United Hatters, Cap and
Millinery Workers international I'm
ion, the Women's Bureau of the
U. S. department of labor is max
ing a general survey of the entire
millinery industry, starting in New
York, New Jersey and Connecticut.
Later the survey will be extended to
other millinery production areas.
The study deals with earnings of
workers and the structure of the mil
linery industry, and is expected to
yield valuable data which will be
utilized in the improvement of condi-
tions detrimental to the workers and
to the economic health of the indus
try. Each union worker is provided
with card, on which will be recorded
his day-to-day earnings and hours of
work
Results of the study will be made
the basis for action by both the union
and the the millinery stabilization
commission, which is enforcing
standards of fair trade practices in
the industry.

FRIDAY, APRIL s, 1888
JOBS AND SCHOOL
IMPROVEMENT

Federal appropriations to construct
and modernize school buildings and
otherwise improve public educational
facilities offer an attack upon the
depression that has attracted too lit
tie interest.
Bills now pending in congress pro-
vide for federal school grants to the
states 1t is reported the bills, intro
duced by Senator's Harrison, Schwel-
lenbach and Hatch, will be considered
at this session Of congress, which is
good news.
Much attention has been paid to vo-
cational education in recent years. In
comparison, other forms of education
have been neglected. Public education
in most states received a tremendous
blow during the 1929 depression, as
is well known. Progress has been
made in bringing educational facili-
ties back to what they should be, but
there is still big job to be done
before facilities are adequate
The pending bills promise to rectify
this condition, if passed. Under their
provisions, school plants would be put
in first class shape, new buildings
edected, teaching stats enlarged, and
other needed improvements made.
Labor has strongly supported pub
lie education from its very beginning
The proposed program Of federal help
is in line with labor's principles and
in addition would give employment
and make for business recovery and
prosperity.

Wagner Holds Proposed
Bill Averted Lynchings

New York City (ILNS) That not
a single lynching has occurred thus
far this year may be attributed to the
drive for anti-lynching legislation,
Senator Robert F. Wagner, of New
York, says in letter to the American
Civil Liberties Union assuring sup
porters of the Wagner VanNuys bill
that it will be pushed for vote at
this session of congress.
although the anti-lynching bill
has been displaced for the time be-
ing" Senator Wagner wrote, "you
can be assured that | intend to con
tinue to exert every effort until this
bill has been enacted into law at this
session of congress. In the mean
time,we may rejoice in the fact that
not single lynching has occurred
thus far this year, and several have
been averted because of the mere
pendency of the anti-lynching bill"

IN. Y. Governor VetOes Bill
Barring Reds from Jobs

Albany, N. Y. (ILNS)-In a vivid
and vigorous message, Governor Leh-
man vetoed the McNaboe bill, which
would keep communists and other
radicals" out of the civil service, and
out of the teaching stats of all
schools.
Although / am unreservedly OPP
posed to the principles of commu-
nism, | am vetoing this bill in the
interest of safeguarding American
democracy
''The bill would abridge freedom
of speech, freedom of thought, free
dom of the press, and freedom of
assembly.
"These are inherent rights guar
anteed by the constitutions of the
state and nation to every citizen.
81 am profoundly convinced that
any statute which directly or indirect
ly limits opportunity for free public
discussion undermines the very foun-
dation of constitutional government.
Constitutional democracy must ac-
cept not only the mandate of the ma
jority, but it must protect minori-
ties against oppression by the major
ity. In all despotic states the first
steps toward dictatorship have come
through the curtailment or the de-
nial of rights of some of their citi-
zens under the alleged sanctions OF
the majority"

Reports of recent progress in such
international cooperative endeavor
comes from the ILO in Geneva. Word
has just been received there of the
ratification by New Zealand of % in
ternational labor conventions, or
treaties, six of them dealing with
hours of work in industry or COM
merce.
The ILO says that the New Zealand
ratifcations bring the total number
of ratifcations Of international labor
conventions registered in Geneva to
more than 800.
Another example Of international
cooperation reported by the ILO is
a world silicosis conference, to be
held next September. The United
States and other important nations
will be represented.
What the ILO is doing demon
strates that international cooperation
for the betterment of mankind is pos
sible, despite the sword-rattling and
bombastic talk Of egomaniacal dicta-
tors.

Mr.. Hughes points out that in the his
tory of liberty the "historic weapons"
have been the leafiet and pamphlet.
This is more than ever the case
today in countries where freedom of
the press, with other liberties, has
been suppressed. One spark of resist
ance to the totalitarian bosses will be
found in the underground printing
press, in the fugitive circular passed
from hand to hand, often in dis
guised form. Unreconciled minori-
ties under Hitler's or Mussolini's or
Stalin's heel have no access to radio
broadcasting stations. They can carry
on with a few sheets of thin paper,
printed where possible, handwritten
if that is the only resource.

COMMENT ON WORLD EVENTS

British labor appears-not for the
first time-to have a near-m monopoly
of British craftsmanship. The Ma
tional Labor Council, which includes
all British labor, has issued state
ment denouncing Premier Chamber
lain, and declaring that the present
tory policy is a direct menace to the
peace of Europe The statement says:
"He has refused to make any inn
mediate use of the machinery of the
League of Nations or collective Sc
curity to put check to the lawless
aggression of Fascist dictators.
His statement that the relations
Iof Germany and Czechoslovakia, may
in the near future threaten the peace
of Europe and involve France, Great
Britain and other countries in war
is gravely alarming.
"Yet in such circumstances the
prime minister gave no explicit warn
ing that the systematic interference
of Nazi Germany in other states
should cease.
THE British labor movement calls
for an immediate meeting Of the as
sembly of the League of Nations and
for special consideration by European
members of the league, particularly
France, Britain and Russia, of steps
to be taken to bring appeasement
in central Europe and Spain.
"The governments attitude of Gym
ical disregard of the need Of defend
ing democracy may leave this coun-
try in position of poNrless isola-
ton. Its continuance in office is 8
great menace to the peace Of
Europe

Pennsylvania in Van
OF War on Slums

Washington, d. G. (ILNS)- With
la total of $28,300,000 ear-marked for
low-rent housing projects in seven
Pennsylvania cities, the Keystone
State has assumed prominent posi-
tion in the vanguard Of the nations
war against slums.
Seven other localities, for which
funds have not yet been earmarked,
have established local housing au-
thorities as the first step in attack
ing their slum problems, according to
Nathan Straus, administrator of the
United States housing authority.
These IA local housing authorities
are all eager to participate in the
government slum clearance pro-
gram, whereby the United States
housing authority lends up to 80 per
cent Of the development cost of low
rent housing projects and then con-
tributes annual subsidies to make
sure that the dwelling rents will re-
main within the means ef low-in-
come families.
Pennsylvania bears the distinction
Of being a pioneer in low-rent hous-
ing. Carl Mackley houses in Phila-
delphia, built by the American Fed
GRAFTON of Hosiery Workers, was one
Of the first low-cost multiple dwell
ing developments in this country.
Philadelphia also has low-rent
project, Hill Creek, built by the gov
lernment.

LABOR GOING AHEAD

American Federation Of Labor un-
ions are not letting the depression
stop their progress. Labor papers
from all over the nation tell the
story. Reports of new contracts,
often with pay and hours gains, ap-
pear every week. In nearly all cases,
new contracts are won without strikes.
Peaceful negotiation does the trick.

INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION
AT WORK

In a world worried by wars and ru-
mors of wars, it is cheering to see
international cooperation for i'm
provement of labor and economic con
ditions. This kind of cooperation
tending to peace, not war-is prac-
ticed by the 81 states belonging to the
international Labor Organization.

Old river Rubicon confronts Presi-
dent Roosevelt
He must make up his mind pretty
soon whether to cross it, Washington
observers think
Staying on one side means con-
tinuance of the governments drifting
policy, as far as the depression is con-
|cerned.
If he crosses the Rubicon, he will
have to adopt a policy of action.
That quite likely means an attempt
to spend the way out of the de-
preston.
President by this time of course
knows the slump is more than ire
Icession"
Calling the slump recession" has
not helped. This column said many
weeks ago that it couldn't be exercised
by any such policy.
More than the wave of a magic
mess.
President has been banking rather
heavily on federal housing admins
tration to get things started.
FILA is doing better than many
lexpected.
The agency's gross business in ap-
proving mortgage loans has been
steadily making new weekly peaks.
Residential mortgages selected for
appraisal reached total Of $22,568,-
219 in the week ending March 26.
This means lot of building in COM
ing months.
In addition, $3,114,607 in loans have
been reported by banks for improve
ments, alterations and repairs, since
February 8.
These last loans put men to work
without delay.
FILA mortgage totals are well
ahead of the same weeks last year.
That's something, in these times.
Other business activity has been
going down, so the FHA record is as
welcome as the we'll known flowers
that come in the spring.
All this building activity is good.
The same goes for other govern
ment building activity and the Build
America program promoted by or
ganized labor.
They help. But more seems to be
needed to jolt the depression.
What the government does in the
near future is all-important
long to see what it plans. The Rubicon
Ion to see what it plans. The Rubicon
has apparently got to be crossed now,
unless we want to continue the pres
ent backward progress.
Organized labor has made it plain
lit is ready to cooperate in any SEN
lsible plan to stop the slump.
All factions have shown recogni-
tion of the vital need for cooperation.
