Silver Group
Loses Out In
Senate Votes
BY CHARLES II. STEWART
Central Press COlumniSt

Washington, July 8.-To say that
President Roosevelt was beaten in his
effort to hang onto his dollar devalu-
alton authority, his tWo-billion-dol-
lar international stabilization fund
and various other financial powers
he has exercised since early in his
first term is not strictly correct.
He lost these powers to be sure, but
not exactly because he was beaten
out of them; rather because his side
wasn't given chance to fight.
Earlier details of this extraor-
binary campaign have been sketched
in couple of previous chapters deal
ing with its development. But to re-
capitulate, for the sake of clarity:
The powers referred to were due
to expire at midnight, June 80. The
President wanted them extended.
The House Of Representative voted
to extend them. Indications were that
the Senate would vote similarly Re-
publicans and anti-NeW Deal Demo-

Friendly Government
States Aim--Baldwin
Governor Tells Boston Audience Progress Is Made By
Offering Men Chance to Better Selves

Gov. Raymond e. Baldwin, In an
address this afternoon at the 18th
annual New England Conference In
Boston, declared that Connecticut
has proven that government
friendly to both business and labor
aids the way to recovery. This state,
he says, offers friendly govern
ment."
Progress Is best accomplished, the
governor said, by Offering to every
man a chance to improve his lot, to
gain better things for his family and
himself.
Gov. Baldwin said In part:
We have believed, IN Connecticut
and 1t Is a belief shared, am
sure, by our sister New England
States-that II government would
but take the attitude Of friendly
cooperative helpfulness towards
Business and Private Industry, Bus
mess and Private Industry would
respond.
And we, in Connecticut at least,
have found that belief-that atti-
tude Of friendly government-fully
justified.
Business Is picking up
New industries, frankly attracted
by our friendly government" our
balanced budget, our determination
to add no new taxes TO the burden
already carried, are coming into our
state.
Our State Employment Service
has found 34,865 Jobs since January

/, 1899, in private business and in
dustry and employment.
Not only thisl-Business and In
dustry have rallied behind Govern
ment-friendly Government
The business men. and industrial
people Of our State, in all parts Of
our State, have organized them
selves in local committees for sound
recovery-to find jobs, good jobs in
private industry, for our unemploy
ed.
One-third Of our employable un-
employed are boys and girls and
young men and young women be-
tween the ages Of 16 and 25--young
people without skill, without train
ing, whom the years have passed
by. This week, we opened, In Hart
ford the first Of series Of Job
training" classes to give these young
people the training, the necessary
rudimentary skills and experience,
at least, that will give them the
fair chance Of which they have been
deprived.
And training, too, for older work.
ers who, through prolonged unenl-
ployment, have become "skill-rusty."
say, we" but 1t Is not the
state that Is doing this. This Is
not another government project"
It Is a program conceived and for
INFLATED and supplemented by the
business men and industrial leaders
Of Conr1ecticut-by Business and
Private Industry
There is no easy road to Recovery.
There Is no scheme that will
bring 1t next week.
Recovery depends upon the re-
vival Of business confidence, and
there can be no revival until busi-
nessmen, large and small, are en-
couraged and inspired.
We who hold public office devote
our time, energy and thought to the
government Of the Statewide our
fellow-men in the private walks Of
life devote their time and energy
and thought to the development OF
private enterprise. We must worl:
with them to make Government and
Private Enterprise go hand In hand.
Government must In all things be
friendly, helpful, cooperating force,
and not an officious, meddlesome
policeman.
We need the help Of men and wo-
men who know the problems Of
business, Of industry, Of commerce,
Of agriculture. Government must
invite them In and work with them
for recovery.
BY inspiring confidence, we can
increase and expand production,
and thus create the jobs that bring
recovery, that build sound
economy.

Effort To Revive
Shipbuilding For
Wilmington Made
Daily Dispatch Bureau
In the Sir Walter Hotel
Rv LYNN NISRET

Raleigh, March 4-Almost any
thing labeled national defense" gets
attention now. The Senate passed
without reference to committee or
any discussion at all, resolution Of
fered by Senator Bellamy memorial
ling the national Congress to amend
the merchant marine act of 1886 to
permit shipbuilding at Wilmington.
The preamble states that this amend
ment is advisable from the stand
point of national defense" and in
order to bring about more equitable
distribution of labor in carrying out
the national ship building program.
Main reason advanced by Sena-
tor Bellamy for such action on part
of the U. S. Maritime Commission
is the need to have widely distribute
ed strategically located ship yards
for use in the event Of war. He
points to the success Of the Whining
ton ship building venture during the
World War, and recalls that many
of the ships built then are still in
profitable USE Besides the defense
feature, the establishment of Ship
yard at Wilmington would aid the
distribution Of employment.
Unfortunately, the legislature can
only ask congress to do something
about, and cannot do anything itself.
Otherwise the state senator's, still
enthralled by the hospitality shown
them at Wilmington last week,
would have had ships under con-
structiOn within a few weeks.

STOOL PIGEON BILL
GIVEN A BODY BLOW
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In the Sir Walter Hotel

Raleigh, March 4.-House Judi
ciary Committee No. has killed the
Morris Raspberry bill opponents
claim would make stool pigeons of
every garage owner in North Caro-
lima.
The measure, introduced by two
former sheriffs, would have required
every garage owner to report to po-
lice repair work done by it on every
car which appeared to have been in
an accident or which appeared to
have been hit by bullets.
The committee felt the bill COW
cred entirely too much territory
and put too much responsibility and
work on garage owners.
Its authors say it was requested
by Major John Armstrong of the
highway patrol
