Under this plan county and WPA
funds would be used in providing
work relief in the cities, instead of
counties setting up relief funds for
the cities by borrowing from automo-
bile tag funds. By taking men off the
relief rolls in the city for this work,
more money would be available for
direct relief for those unable to work.
However, this is not solving the
problem Of how to pay the butcher
and the baker for food they have fur
nished for relief clients. Toledo was
sued for $56O,7S2 for relief supplies
furnished in 1889 and has been run
ming in debt at the rate of $15O,000 a
month this year. Columbus owes it's
merchants more than 100000 for
food furnished for relief and does not
have the funds with which to pay.
Cleveland is going to submit an S.2
mill levy on March 27 for operating
purposes and Columbus will probably
be compelled to do the same thing, in
order to take care of the increasing
deficits.
In Cleveland the Federation of La.
Dor has agreed to support the levy at
the special election, on the promise
that salaries will not be cut.
Akron is also facing a battle in
council over a salary ordinance before
City Council fixing maximum anc
minimum wages.
Columbus, with a notoriously low
salary schedule for it's city employees
and relief workers., is doing nothing
about wages, city officials contendine
they cannot afford to make any in
creases. In Columbus Welfare work
ers in the Charity Department, ad
ministering relief, receive $50 and $9(
a month and many of them are womel
who have had special training fo.
this work.

We would like to mention at this
time that any one knowing of a death
in the local please report it to the
flower committee Immediately. We
have had to cases recently where it
was reported to the committee too
late to send flowers. We are sorry
this happened and will see this mis-
take is rectified.
We have several members in the
hospital at the present time, Sisters
Helen Giesbert and Madeline Troy
Liephart. We hope these two sisters
get along all right. Grace Miller is
out of the hospital and doing very
nicely. Cy Spencer is back to work
after long illness.
When you are off sick be sure to
get in touch with Miss Helen Haley,
secretary of the Welfare and Hospital
ization organization--that is if you
are a member of this unit.
Charles Everstine, better known as
"Jitterburg," has decided he will take
to the water, and become navy man.
The U. S. Navy can stand lot of
good men at the present time. Git
terburg" expects to see lot of land,
oh yes, water, and have some inter
esting experiences. Wonder if he will
pick up some new dances in these for
eign lands? 1t has also been called to
our attention that Sister Leona
Walters son has also decided to be-
come a u. S. NAVY man. Both bows
will leave within the next month. We
wish them a lot of luck and success.
Don't forget, Local 42's regular

long and place an undue burden on
the wage-earner's small resources.
Finally, States have been adding in
creasingly severe disqualifications, de-
nying all benefits to workers because
of only minor infractions.
eff unemployment compensation is
to have any place in a long-range So
luton of the unemployment problem,
we must begin now to adopt benefit
standards which meet the minimum
essentials of an unemployment insur-
ance program
"Such program would not require
any additional taxes. Millions of dol
lars collected from the present unem-
ployment compensation tax have been
piling up in huge reserves. At the
present time, for the country as a
whole, over a billion and a half dol
lars have already been set aside for
the future.
"In almost every State this repre-
sents an increase beyond the reserves
built up before benefits began to be
paid. To finance the present made
quate benefit payments requires but a
fraction of the current income from
this tax. Nearly three-fifths of the
States now pay out in benefits less
than fifty cents for every dollar of in
come that is received. Available fig
ures indicate that a significant ap-
proach toward the payment of ade-
quate benefits can be financed for the
country as a whole with the present
tax income. IS
"The State Federations of Labor
and Central Labor Bodies of many
States have already written their Sen
ators and Representatives urging that
the Mccormack Bill be passed at this
session of the Congress.
Labor wants the program of un-
employment compensation to provide
that reasonable measure of security
which can be had if the existing rev.

In closing Mr.. Woll contended that
the reduction of tariff rates at this
time would mean the notification of
the benefits which labor had secured
in the Fair Labor Standards Act and
virtually sets aside the protective ad-
vantages which accrue to American
workers through our enactment of the
Asiatic Exclusion Act and Restrictive
immigration Laws.

the Housing Authority, while Judges
e. S. Matthias, William Hart and
George Myers joined in dissenting
opinion. 1t was not partisan decision.
Judges Day and Williams, who voted
for the majority opinion, are Repub-
licans while Judge Myers, who voted
with the dissenters, is Democrat.
The minority contended that the
setting apart Of slum clearance areas
in cities removed these districts from
municipal and state control and turn
ed them over to the Federal Govern
ment, and that it was violative OF
Ohio's constitutional rule Of uniform
ity for taxing all real estate to ex-
ampt these projects from local tax
alton.
The majority opinion said it was
not for the court to concern itself
with the wisdom of the policy in en-
acting the Housing law. 1t says:
NATURALLY, in the execution Of such
a program a great deal must be left
to the discretion and sound judgment
of the local authorities, and when it
appears that such judgment and dis
cretion is being exercised within law
full limits no basis is afforded for ju-
dicial intervention.
Examination of the evidence pre-
sented shows carefully conceived
and balanced plan to abolish selected
slum areas in the city of Cincinnati
and provide low-rent dwelling units
within the municipal limits for fami-
lies of low incomes, in general con-
formity with the purposes and design
of controlling legislation.
