As thousands Of p. w. A. projects

and half man-hours of indirect en-
ployment were created in the manu-
featuring plants that supplied the ma.
terials for the projects, on the trans
portation lines that carried the ma

other plants that served as the source
OF the materials. This direct and in

In its turn created additional employ

ton in supplying demands for consum-
ers' goods and services.
An idea Of the widespread perms-
ating influence upon business and in
dustry caused by the construction Of
public works may be obtained from
records covering the purchase Of vari-
Gus materials for use on p. w. A.
projects. For example, cement orders
from P. w. A. took approximately

three-fourths Of the entire domestic
output in 1884. Two years later, as
general business revived, these orders
still absorbed II per cent Of the domes-
tic production. In the brick and hol-
low building tile industry, p. w. A.
orders in 1884 supplied a market for
one-fourth Of tile entire domestic
output. This was doubled two years
later.
All Of these materials and supplies,
and the labor that fabricated and
transported them and set them into

than $4,000 public works which are

Through p. W. A. our educational
facilities have been vastly improved.
Public health has been greatly bene-
1ited. The construction Of waterworks
and sanitary systems throughout the
country was sharply stimulated. Two
thirds Of al hospital construction since
1888 was accomplished with p. w. A.
aid. Decent and adequate housing was
given to thousands Of urban families
who formerly were forced to live in
slums. And ell Of this work meant
renewed business activity and re-
employment of those out of work.
We have heard talk lately about the
willingness Of business to go forward
on its own If it has the opportunity.
We have been told about the great
potential force waiting to be released
In the business field. On the other
hand. we hear stories about business
men being unable to sell their products
or to maintain production because Of
an apparent evaporation of purchasing
power.
The Public Works Administration Is
happy and willing to cooperate with
private industry as it has done in
the past. p. w. A. is not substitute

IN competition with private industry.

Business Chiefs Statement
Leaders Offer Proposals to Speed Recovery-Express
Willingness to Cooperate With Government.
(St0sy on Page A-1.)
By the Associated Press.

B, the Associated Press.
Following is the text of the state
ment given to President Roosevelt
yesterday by the Commerce Depart
ment's Business Advisory Council:
We are keenly appreciative. Mr..
President, Of this opportunity to dis
cuss with you the matters which affect
the business situation and therefore
the economic welfare OF the people
of the country. At our dinner in
honor of Secretary Roper in Chicago
you extended to use the invitation
to meet with you and discuss ways
and means that could be employed
to improve the welfare of that portion
of our population who have the lowest
incomes. This is q subject we are
indeed glad to have an opportunity to
discuss. On the other hand. We can
not help but be deeply concerned at
the present time over the economic
welfare of the entire Nation and be-
lieve that through cooperation it can
be bettered.
Since extending to US this invita-
ton. you have asked in your message
to Congress that business and finance
recognize that there is 4 new moral
climate in America and ito cure such
inequalities as they can cure without
legislation. but to join their Govern
ment in the enactment of legislation
where the ending Of abuses and the
steady functioning of bur economic
life call for Government assistance
The members of this council wish to
re-pledge to you our acceptance Of
this responsibility and to assure you
that We stand ready to function in
the manner which you have indicated
in so far as we are able.
Evening star., 1938-01-20
WAGES AND HOURS

An example is the proposed wage
and hour legislation. A year ago We
pledged to you our cooperation in
the development of sound legislation
in this field. There was proposed in
Congress a bill which went very much
further in Federal control of wages
and hours than Is indicated by your
message to Congress of January 3.
It is true that this original proposed
bill was materially modified, but as
has been indicated by the congressional
debate, the bill has aroused much op-
position, even from quarters in SYM
pathy with the objectives that your
message indicates.
This council wishes to record itself
with you as being in sympathy with
the objectives you have 30 clearly
stated. namely "only legislation to end
starvation wages and intolerable
hours"
It is our earnest recommendation
that q fresh study be made Of this
subject, and that the representatives
Of both labor and industry who par
ticipated in the administration Of N.
r. A. be asked to consult with re-
sponsible representatives Of Govern
ment before . decision 10 reached a.
to the type Of legislation which Will,
IN the long run. best accomplish your
sound obtectives. ..rrv-~~-
