CHICACO-There'H be pie in

theme of two major speeches which
President William P. Witherow of
the National Association of Manu-
facturers made in four days.
In talk at Kansas City Witherow
made out industry's postwar objective
to be "a higher standard of living for
the American peop1e-a continuation
of the progress from 1870 to 1890"

Many new manufacturing
concerns doing business i'm
Connecticut for the first time
are failing to register with the
Labor Department as required
by law, State Labor Commits
siOner Cornelius ]. Danaher
stated this week, after a state
wide checkup by factory in
spectOrs.
According to Danaher,
nearly 600 new manufacture
ing establishments have start
ed doing business here during
the past two years, and an
estimated $50 of them are
failing to register, thereby
subjecting themselves to pen
alties under Section 835E of
the general statutes of the
State.
"We believe this failure to regis
ter with the Labor Department in
most instances is caused by lack
of knowledge of the necessity
therefor said Mr.. Danaher, ''but
the State law requires registration
with the Labor Department before
operations begin. This is important
because it enables our factory in
spectors to examine the premises
and the equipment with view
toward the health and safety of
workers."
There have been few prosecu-
tions under the statute up to the
present time, Danaher explained,
because of the apparent lack of
knowledge of this requirement, on
the part of new manufacturers.
ssThe widespread disregard of this
provision of the law certainly re-
quires some remedial action. We
are granting a period of two weeks
grace and at the end of that time
we intend to prosecute those who
continue to disregard this section
of the law.

fail to keep down the cost of living
because it creates "a vicious circle
of wage increases and invites in
fiatiOn to stick a very large foot in
side the door,"
Attacking the Brown-Wagner price
wage sterilization bill, which reflects
the Presidents views, Witherow said
that the government could "free
management of many distractions and
expedite war production" if it would
only crack down on wages and ease
UP on taxes.
Pending tax legislation which has
already handed industry billions of
dollars in excess war profits isn't
enough for Witherow, who said that
it would create postwar economic
chaos" in which, he insinuated, indus
try could not do all those nice things
for the people which he promised.
Prize understatement in his
Legion speech was his description
of the great depression of the 3O's
in which nearly 20 million workers
were jObless: "The decade of the
1905 was the only one which
registered no acceleration in the
rise of this GU. S. living) STAN
