DETROIT SEEKS
TO WARD OFF
LABOR INFLUX
City's JObIess Put First
In Defense Work
Openings

UNITED Press STAR Correspondent
Detroit, Aug. 9-(UP)-Michigan
Is regimenting its unemployed be-
hind the national defense program,
but at the same time, led by the city
of Detroit, is holding up mo ad-
mittance" sign to transient job
seekers.
Alarmed by a huge influx of I'M
skilled laborers from other states,
civic and industrial leaders of De-
troit are appealing to workers
from other localities not to come
to Michigan seeking employment
In factories accelerated by nation
al defense orders.
Transients Total 100000
The Detroit city council, taking
cognizance of a situation growing
increasingly serious because names
of more than 100000 transient
workers already are on file with
employment agencies, has made a
public announcement designed to
discourage migration to the ma
tion's automobile capital.
There is, has been and will be
within the city an overabundance
OF common labor which is readily
shown by the large numbers on
relief and WPA rolls" the state
ment by the council said. There
is no employment in Detroit for
common labor, and the city and
state will not and cannot care for
those who may come to Detroit

BLONDE TICRESS !.
MAY Be TRAPPED
Eleanor Jarmon Is Be-
lieyed Surrounded in
COrnfield

Dwight, ILL.,, Aug. 9.-(UP)-
Eleanor Jarmon, 36, called the
blonde tigeress" because she once
kicked a dying man in the face,
was believed trapped in Q cornfield
northeast Of the Oakdale reforma-
tory for women early today.
She and another woman escaped
from the reformatory yesterday.
She was serving 1919 years for
numbering a Chicago haberdasher in
1888. She and her male companions
had staged more than so holdups.
For female viciousness, Mrs. jar
mon has had no parallel In CHI
cago police records. Her handbags
were always oversize-for her re-
volver and her blackjack. And she
used them vigorously on her hold
up victims. Some victims were
slugged with the butt % her re-
volver II they even reconstructed;
others were blackjacked.
This woman was at large today
and the police Of the entire section
were searching for her. Yesterday,
she ana Mary roster, CHlcaSo SEW"
ing one to 10 years for larceny,
didn't appear for lunch at the re-
formatory. Authorities then dis
covered that they had escaped. They
were believed to have been traced
to the corn field. More than 100
guards and state policemen sur
rounded the field.
Reformatory Supt. Helen Hazard
said Mrs. Jarmon had been IAN
industrious, obedient, and model
woman In almost every respect
since her confinement. She wasn't
that in 1893 when she and her
blackjack were terrorizing small
Chicago shop-keepers. She and
George Dale. her male accomplice,
came at last to the haberdashery OF
Gustave Hoeh, 70, who resisted,
She shot him and as he lay dying
on the sidewalk, kicked him In the
face.
Dale was executed in the electric
chair April 20, 1884.

Employment policies must be

numbers of unemployed men and

Stressing the value Of maintain
ing for women the 8-hour day with
two 10-minute rest periods, and the
40-hour week, the report warns
against effort to speed up produc-
ton by means of longer hour sched-
ules or overtime. Industrial his
tory during the last World War and
since proves that this is a short
sighted policy and that moderate
working hours lead to increased pro-
duction and better quality OF goods,
conserve the workers energies. and
enable them to produce steadily IN

AS illustrative OF increase in pro-
duction through shortening Of hours,
the bulletin cites the case Of the
United States Government Print
ing Office. After changing TO q D.
day week Of 20 hours in 1882 this
agency found production per en-
ploye had increased from 4 TO 10
percent and that the daily output
was greater than in the l-2-day
week of A hours.
Maintenance Of minimum-wage
standards and fair-wage policies for
women are urged. Rates should
be based on occupation and not on
sex or race Of the worker. The
standards Of wages prevailing for
men should not be lowered where
women are employed. Pay for un-
avoidable overtime should be low
cred where women are employed.
Pay for unavoidable overtime should
be at time and half the regular
rate. Wage rates should be revised
periodically and adjusted to marked
rise in cost Of living"

Anderson pointed out, Home manu-

NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-The be-
hind -the-scenes difference of opin-
ion at the Metropolitan Opera-the
claim of two stars that the con-
ductor was too inexperienced-came
out into the open last night with a
handshaking settlement.
LauritZ Melchoir, top-ranking
Wagnerian tenor. shook hands in
front of an audience between acts of
Die Walkuere" with 27-year -old
Erich Leinsdorf, the conductor who
replaced the late Artur Bodanzky.
Neither said a word but both
smilingly received polite applause
from the audience when presented
by George A. Sloan, chairman of the
Metropolitan Opera Fund.
Missing was Kristen Flagstad,
who had claimed with Mr.. Melchoir
that Leinsdorf was not capable of
conducting Wagner. She was in bed
with a cold and opera officials said
they did not know her attitude.
Recently. however, she was said to
be composing her differences with
Mr.. Linsdorf who a few days ago
shook hands back stage with Mr.
Melchoir.

was all right again:

California employer -employe rela-

the hearings, which began here De-

The closing day was given over
to testimony by representatives of
the Associated Farmers, whose or
ganization was assailed by various
labor union witnesses, and to a
survey of events leading up to for
mutation of the union regulatory
initiative measure, defeated at the
polls last November.
A statement on behalf of the As

the organization stood for law and
order and recognized the rights of
workers to bargain collectively.
The statement said the farmers,
organized in 1884, had found it
necessary in some agricultural labor
disputes to protect the right of en-
ployes to work without fear of vio-
lence, intimidation or coercion.
