Phi Beta kappas Told
Peace Differences
Prompted War
Dr.. Gewehr, A. U.
History Professor,
Addresses Association

The allies desire to end periodic
crises and secure lasting peace, as
against Germany's offers of peace
either on her own terms or by "vio-
lent unilateral action" is the chief
reason Europe is fighting an "un-
wanted war;" DR.. Wesley M. Gewehr,
American University history pro-
fessor, declared last night.
DR.. Gewehr, who spoke at a meet
ing of the Phi Beta Kappa Associa-
tic', Of the District at the Carlton
Hotel, minimized the issue of i'm
perialism in the present conflict and
pointed out that all three of the
warning nations are imperialistic.
But there are different kinds of
imperialism" DR.. Gewehr explained.
British imperialism has mellowed
into a means of extending the demo-
cratic processes. It hasn't wiped
out religion and culture. In its ma
ture stage, British imperialism is a
great stabilizing force for world
democratic processes"
Sees OBSTRUCTIVE" Type.
On the other hand, DR.. Gewehr
continued, Germany, which has been
involved in a period of dynamic
revolution" has embarked on a
course of destructive imperialism"
directed against her neighbors.
Both sides claim they stand for
a new world order in which peace
and security would be guaranteed.
DR.. GeWehr declared. THE chief
difference lies in the methods of
attaining it. Europe finally arrived
at a point at which it had to decide
as to whether it wanted a peace by
putting an end to periodic crises or
whether it wanted a peace on Hit
ler's own terms or through violent
unilateral action"
Noting that in the present conflict
there are no military fronts, DR..
GeWehr said that when a major Of
fensive starts there will be de-
struction of civil lives and property
as well as military objectives.
Little Hatred Apparent.
Because of the strength of the
battle lines of the opposing forces,
there has been no major offensive,
DR.. Gewehr continued. Little
hatred has been seen in the conflict,
he said, adding that so far the prin-
cipal weapons have been the block
ade and propaganda battles.
Another speaker during the meet
ing was DR.. William A. Sinner, edi-
tor of the American Scholar and
national secretary of the United
Chapters of Phi Beta Kappa, who
spoke of the work of the organiza-
ton and the need for expanding its
activities throughout the Nation for
the preservation of intellectual and
academic freedom.
Officers who were reelected at
last nights meeting included Wade
H. Ellis, president; Gilbert H. Gros-
venor, vice president; Francis J.
Hemelt, secretary, and Joseph M.
Long, treasurer. All members of
the council were reelected.

April 3. We had very good attend
ance and hope it continues in the fu-
ture.
We are very sorry to lose Brother
F. M. Howell, our president, who has
accepted state job. At the last meet
ing we gave him rising vote of
thanks for his services to No. Al, if
anyone is deserving of thanks it is
"F'risky." We wish him all the luck in
the world.
Vice President Chester Jackson de-
clined to take the presidents chair, SO
it was necessary to elect. The results
was the naming Of former Vice Presi-
dent Bostwick. ! am sure with little
cooperation we will have an excellent
local, SO everyone try and help all they
can.
There was not much routine busi-
ness at the meeting except reports
from the different shop committees
and the Central Labor Union. We GER
tainly miss our treasurer, Brother X.
C. Larkins. The first time anyone
knew of Bob being absent, but the flu

Advisory Council
Holds Hearings On
Wage Computation
Representatives Of Labor
and Employers Heard
On Same Day

Columbus, O. NS).-Hearings
on the formula for computing the
average weekly wage of applicants for
unemployment compensation were
started by the Advisory Council of
the Ohio Bureau of Unemployment
Compensation in a hearing room at
the State Office Building, Thursday
afternoon, April 13.
Representatives of Labor were
heard beginning at 2 p. m. on that
date, followed by representatives of
employers on the same day. The
Council had set aside Friday morning,
April Ia, for the general public to
express it's viewpoint.
Employers have fought for over a
year to have the average wage of their
employees based on actual earnings,
which would result in lower benefit
to the worker when unemployed and a
savings to the employer in the amount
of contributions he must pay into the
unemployment compensation fund.
A rule for wage computation based
on actual earnings was adopted by
the old Unemployment Compensation
Commission, but an injunction asked
by the Ohio State Federation of La
Dor and others to restrain it's use by
the Commission was granted by
Franklin County Common Pleas Judge
Charles A. Leach on January 16, 1889.
The Commission then adopted a
rule providing for benefits based on
what the worker would have earned if
employed full time, with provisions
for calculating the average wage in
specific cases where the standard rule
would not be applicable.
Employers have continued their at
tack on that method of computing the
average weekly wage, with the result
that the Council determined to hold
public hearings for an open discussion
on the subject.
The Advisory Council last week
elected the following officers: William
C. Stafford, public, Cincinnati, chair
man; Albert f. Dawson, employer,
Cincinnati, vice chairman and Edison
l.. Bowers, public, Columbus, record
ing secretary.
Other members of the Council are:
John r. Breidenbach, Dayton, and
Albert Dalton, Cleveland, representing
labor; Ralph Miner, Akron, employ
ers and Rabbi Almond Cohen, Cleve-
land, public representative.

Commission Seeks
To Finance Sfufe
Building Program
Proposals For Financing ST.
100000 Welfare Program
Considered
(By Ohio Labor News Service)

Wy OIlO LdUOT NEWS ocIVlCcJ-
Columbus, O.-Proposals of finan-
cial institutions for financing a ST.
100000 state welfare institutional
building program will be considered
by the Public Institutional Building
Authority on April 10, William S.
konold, chairman of the Authority,
announced last week.
A legal notice calling for the sub
mission Of financial proposals marked
the first actual step to obtain state
financing for the huge building pro-
gram since the creation of the Au-
thority by the 92nd General Assembly
and the appointment of konold, Dan
A. Carmichael and Ed Switalski as
members Of the Authority
The move was taken, Konold said,
following a decision of the Authority
members to abandon earlier plans for
a friendly legal suit to determine the
legality of the Authority. Many in
quiries have been received from finan-
cial houses as to when the program
was to get under way, Konold said,
and these prompted the Authority to
ask for proposals.
In memorandum submitted to all
prospective bidders, the Authority
called attention to the fact that rec
ords of the Department of Public We'll
fare, together with Investigations
made by the Authority, disclosed an
urgent need for more adequate facili-
ties for the housing of patients af-
fected with mental and other diseases.
In addition to patients now housed
in state institutions, the memorandum
points out, it has been necessary to
! care for approximately 1,2G0 patients
on an average during the past three
years in private homes and institu-
tions.
The annual cost of caring for patti
ents in private homes and institutions
is $4,000 per year, or $3.50 per week,
while the average cost of caring for
patients in state institutions is $18S24
per year for each patient. These COM
parative figures demonstrate the
urgent need for additional state facili-
ties, the Authority's statement con-
tends.
The memorandum also points out
the general credit Of the state or its
political subdivisions is not involved
by the financing undertaken by the
Authority, which would issue bonds on
it's own responsibility, to be amortized
by rentals collected from the state for
use of the buildings.
Financial institutions say the pro-
gram is perfectly feasible from a le-
gal standpoint, and appear to be ready
to participate in the financing" Kon-
old said.
An additional S6,OOO,OOO may be OBJ
tanned from PWA should Congress ap-
propriate additional funds for cooper
ative Federal projects, Konold said.

Drdmofize Fight
Against + Prison
Contract Labor
AFL Radio Program Rein
acts Organized Ldbors
Success ,1al p

Washington, d. C. QLNS).-The
American Federation of Labor pre-
sents in its April issue of "The Labor
Parade" a dramatic re-enactment of
organized labor's successful fight
against prison contract labor.
Prison contract labor, which saw
the light of day shortly after early
colonization in this country, threaten
ed the very foundation of our con
stitutonal form Of government. The
viciousness Of this penal system, un-
til more recent years, slackened indus
trial progress, affected economic sta
bility of local as we'll as national gov
ernment and brought about sweat
shops, and the employment of children
in many Of our manufacturing plants.
Labor early realized that here existed
a condition that must be attacked to
it's very root.
The American Federation of Labor
in 1881 included in its first platform
a denunciation of prison contract la
Dor as a species of slavery in its worst
form. at pauperiZes free labor, de-
moralizes the honest manufacturers
and degrades the very criminal whom
it employs"
The prison contract labor system
involved the hiring out Of prisoners
by penal institutions to private con
tractors, the contractors paying a
stipulated fee for each prisoner. The
goods, wares and merchandise manu-
factured by these contractors flooded
the open markets, i'm competition with
goods manufactured by free industry
and by the hands Of free labor.
In 1929, the American Federation
of Labor, the National Association Of
Manufacturers, the General Fedora
tion of Women's Clubs, and the Ma
tional Committee on Prisons and
Prison Labor formed combination
to fight this and other similar evil
practices.
One hundred and eighty stations
throughout the United States will
present the dramatic enactment of
the outstanding events in the history
of the fight against prison contract
labor
