VIEW YORK, June ~ - During
me past few weeks / have directed
tn1s column to various proups al
people, - colored workers white
workers, union labor, parents and
investors. Permit me this week to
give certain employers some eood
ADVICE. This especially applies to
the older men. There are MANY
young forward-looking EMPLOYERS
put the stage has been stolen by
the "die-hards".
AS a part of my education. /
attend group meetings Of various
kinds, - church. social, Scientific
labor and employers. All theee
groups - with the exception of the
latter have definite construc-
tive legislative program to make
a better nation. We employers
however, present little constructive
legislation. We have asked only for
lower taxes and to be let alone"
l arm sure this is mistake.
Some economists recently dis.
cussed whether inctallment sales
Whic have temporarily been re.
stricted under presidential orders
curing the war should be re-
gulated after peace comes. They
claim that to stabilize employment,
installment purchases should be
encouraged during depressions but
retarded during booms. This would
be sound practice; but what do
most employers say? They reply,
No! The government should let
us alone to handle our own credits
as we d-mn please"
Labor has made an appeal for
much more extensive accident
compensation laws through
government insurance company.
The argument is that employers
will hesitate to employ returning
soldiers who may have any defect
OF eyesight, hearing, lamenecs or
otherwise, believing that such per-
sons are more liable to accidents.
To encourage employers to employ
such, labor leaders urge an ex-
tension of industrial insurance. Do
most employers agree? No! They
insist that the government should
keep hands off,: while their in
surance friends yell Com
munism''. Is such an attitude by
manufacturers and bankers wise?
Credit men have suggested that
legislation be enacted whereby in
ventories would be regulated in
some way. One reason for unem-
rloyment is because stocks of raw
materials and merchndise at
times become SO large that manu-
facturers and merchants suddenly
stop buying. These credit men
claim that normal inventories tend
to KEEP employment normal. But
here again, too many employers
say, "No!' They demand free
enterprise, freedom to initiate or
deflate and freedom to speculate
OF to hoard. Too many Of US want
freedom for ourselves without
thinking of the other fellows well
fare.
Accountants believe that some
relation should exist between de-
probation, requirements and cor
poration taxes. They say that dur
ing a depression employers con-
tinue to charge vast sums to de-
probation to save taxes, but they
do not spend the money. Hence,
this policy makes the depression
SO much worse. They believe that
during a depression, when depre-
citation money is not spent for re-

placements, it should be taxed:
while during boom, it should be
taxed If it is spent. Well, this sug-
gestion has caused some employers
to set up a big howl. Perhaps the
loea is crazy; but there is no
harm in discussing it.
Just one more illustration: Many
farsighted insurance men believe
it is not healthy for the country
10 forbid savings banks, life in
surance companies and other in
stitutions from buying equities"
TO force them to buy so many
governments is keeping funds
away from small business men and
homebuilderc. 1T is O. K.". thay
say, Ito forbid us from buying the
stocks of corporations which have
bonds outstanding but, in the in
terest of the public, we should be
allowed to invest a certain pro-
portion of our funds in the equities
OF companies having no debt, = es-
pecially during depressions". This
sounds sane to me. Certainly. this
is something that employers could
get behind.
Stabilizing Unemployment

struction, Lord Woolton. is now

recommendations to stabilize
unemployment by synchronizing
and adjusting public works.
exports, investments, taxes, inter-
est charges and railroad rates to
business conditions. His plan is to
decrease the first three in booms
and to increase them in depres-
sions; but to increase the last
three in bombs and lower them
during depression.

studies have been made before,
The library Of the department of
labor is full of them. But here is
the rub: Too many manufacturers.
employers and bankers seldom
present these proposed employ
ment aids to Congress as definite
legislation. Furthermore, if labor
submits them, the employers az
sociations usually fight them. I re-
peat that too many employers ask
only for lower taxes and to be let
alone!

The upheavals of war within Ger
many have made for greater unity
of the Protestant churches there
and for their greater cooperation
with the Roman Catholic churches,
according to the World Council OF
Churches. Protestant churches OF
Germany are bound together by a
twelve-point program to resist Nazl
anti-religious pressure. Leaders OF
the united churches have on many
occasions protested directly and in
directly against government meas
ures contrary to Christian concep-
lions. They have spoken against
so-called mercy killings" and
other violations of basic human
rights. They have denounced the
persecution of Jews. in sermons
as well as in letters to the govern
ment, and they have often, at great
risk, given active aid to Jews and
nIon-Aryan Christians.

BY UNITED PRESS

The Connecticut Federation of Labor stepped Into the political campaign today with on endorges rnent of Democrats on the national and state tickets and with particli- lar criticism of Rep. Glare Booth Luce who is accused, in general" of showing an "unrnistakably ire. sponsible attitude"
 The only Republican for whom the GEL had q good word was Rep. William J. Miller of the First Diss trict, of whom it was said had the "best record of the six Connecticut Republicans, yet fell woefully short of what Is expected of 6 friend of labor
 Mrs. Luce, said q resolution of the organizations ron-partisan political committee, touring the country on behalf of Thomas E. Dewey's cans didacy, shamefully has distorted the truth about President Roosevelt's record, and has used glib phrases in efforts to deceive the voting pub. lic."
 Of her opponent, Miss Margaret Connors, the resolution said she was "an able lawyer with an admins. trative background, highly sympa- thetic to labor"
 The GEL declared Republican U. s. Senator John A. Danaher lone of the states outstanding iso. lationists. He consistently voted against arming this country for de- fense," while Democratic senate Brien McMahon was dee clared having record in public life indicating he would be c strong supporter of the presidents forward domestic and foreign pole ici.es and would be generally sym. pathetic to labors legislative pro- posalS."
 The resolution also singled out Rep. John D. McWilliamS of the Second District as having "one of the worst records in Congress" and
