Grogan's Far Farm, RB. : Martinsville, Va tion of Labor's annual con- vention opened in Tampa it had be- fore it the report of the executive council dealing with, among many other topics, the social security act. The report heartily approved of a federal social security program and urged adoption of state laws that would give labor the greatest pos- sible benefit from the federal stat- ute, If the federal law is unconsti- tutional, the council said, *‘it is clear that its provisions must be changed or that sanction must be afforded to them through an amendment to the constitution.” The council questioned the wis- dom of obtaining the necessary funds through a payroll tax “which to a great extent is to be paid di- rectly or indirectly by the workers involved” and suggested that con- gress repeal this feature of the law a8 soon as it convenes. In discussing unemployment since NRA’s end, the council said: “The shorter work week and the six hour day furnish the real solu- tion to the insistent problem of un- employment. It is the responsibility that private industry must accept in order to give the necessary balance to economic expansion.” The council reported a member- ship of 3,422,398 on August 31—the greatest since 1921. The council dismissed John L. © Western Newspaper Union Lewis’ epochal rebellion with a de- tailed factual account of its prog- ress during the last year. ‘‘Appro- priate action” was suggested. George L. Berry, national co-or- dinator for industrial recovery and president of the Printing Press- men's union, proposed that the con- troversy with Lewis and his C. 1. O. group be ended by arbitration, but this was rejected by President Green and other federation leaders. John P. Frey lost no time in intro- ducing his resolution for expulsion of the rebel unions with their mem- bership of over a million. President Starts on His Ocean Cruise RESIDENT ROOSEVELT went by train to Charleston, S. C,, to board the cruiser Indianapolis for a jaunt in southern waters. He said he was not certain where the ship would take him, but in Washington it was assumed that he would pro- ceed at once for Buenos Aires to attend the opening of the Pan-Amer- ican peace conference on Decem- ber 1. In that case he will make stops at Port of Spain, Rio de Jan- eiro and Montevideo, and will not return before December 15. If his plans are changed, he will merely spend two or three weeks fishing in the Caribbean. At his last press conference be- fore departing the President said he had about completed drafting the 1837 budget. He said also that he had outlined to his subordinates the things he wants done during his absence, these including: Drafting of a farm tenancy law to end evils attending the system of share-cropping and farm tenancy, now chiefly prevalent in the South. Clarifying amendments to the so- cial security act.

Wallace was asked whether the lack of a control plan might not result in another surplus, leaving the administration up in the air without any machinery to cope with it. He said he could not estimate a surplus ahead of time and that he would rather wait to see what would happen. Franklin D. Roosevelt, Jr, to Marry Ethel du Pont HE engagement of Franklin D. Roosevelt, Jr., third son of President and Mrs. Roosevelt, to Miss Ethel du Pont of Wilmington, Del., was announced by the young lady's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Eu- gene du Pont. There had been ru- mors of this romance for months, but announcement was delayed un- til after the election. The wedding will be in June after Mr. Roose- velt's graduation from Harvard, and will be a quiet affair. Miss du Pont's father is a member of the board of directors of the E. I. du Pont de Nemours company. She is a niece of Lammot du Pont, presi- dent of the company; of Pierre S. du Pont, chairman of the board, and of Irenee du Pont, another director of the board.

The attackers at one time smashed Clark Howell, Eminent Editor, Is Dead LARK HOWELL, editor and president of the Atlanta Consti- tution and one of the best known journalists in the United States, died at his home in Atlanta at the age of seventy-three after a long illness. He was one of the original directors of the Associated Press, He was elected to the position at the time of its incorporation in 1600 and held it at the time of his death. Always active in state and na- tional politics, Mr. Howell was a pioneer in the formation of ‘“Roose- velt for President” clubs. He was offered his choice of several dip- lomatic posts in 1933 but declined, saying he felt he could better serve the President and the nation as publisher of the Constitution. He was at various times a member of temporary national commissions, but in the main devoted his time to his journalistic labors. A few years ago the Constitution won the Pulitzer prize for ‘‘meritorious serv- ice” in exposing political conditions in Atlanta. Secretary Roper Plans Census of Jobless NT OW that the election is over, 4 N Secretary of Commerce Roper is laying plans for the complete census of the unemployed in the United States which has so long been called for. He said he would ask con- gress to appropriate between 13 and 15 million dollars for this count and that it would require the services of about 25,000 persons who would be given spe- cial training for several months, *“The census would not only take up an enumeration of those classified as unemployed,” said Roper, "but we want to find out which trades or industries the un- employed would fall into. We would also like to help the states in clas- sifying the unemployed from the un- employable. “There are many economic ques- tions involved. Some families have enough income to support them, but one or more members may be out of work. We want to obtain information on this phase." Sec. Roper Government Buys 9 Million Acres of Poor Farm Land EXFORD G. TUGWELL, settlement administrator, an- nounced that the government had acquired more than nine million acres of land considered unsuitable for crop production, and he added that it should buy ten times as much. The Resettlement in istration is committed to pay $39, $16,603 for the land, under option in 210 different projects in 44 states at an average price of $440 an acre. These acres, Tugwell said, “could not support human subsistence’ when used as they have been, and so were being restored to grazing, forestry, recreation, and other use for which they were naturally fitted. Tugwell reported still residing on the tracts “will need aid in resettling.’” More than 2,000 families already have been moved, it was disclosed, and many others found new homes without aid, Re- Hitler Scraps Another Treaty Clause APOLF HITLER has torn up an- other clause of the Versailles treaty—the one that international- ized the German rivers and canals. He has announced that the reich has resumed sovereignty over all such waters. The treaty clause was de- signed partly to give Czecho- slovakia free access to the sea, and that nation now has agreed with Belgium to protest formally against Germany's action. British Foreign Minister Eden rather mildly criti cized Hitler's course, Belgium Asks Specific Pledge From League W ITH embarrassing directness, Belgium has demanded that nation “‘could count on.” In a note, she demanded clarification of the league covenant, particularly the article applying to sanctions against an aggressor. Efforts to prevent war should be emphasized by the league, Belgium said, and mea. sures against countries which en. danger peace should be improved upon. In a recent speech to parliament, intended to clarify a previous by King Leopold, Foreign Minister Spaak said his country would assure both Germany and France that Belgium never would become the jumping off place for an attack on the territory of either power.

In England, the government, guided by experts, is making ex- cellent pasture lands of soil that was worthless. Our government might investigate that process. General Markham, chief army advises putting an air the Pacific island, far away in apologetically, that this would be a commercial development, al- though it might be useful for de- fense. Why an apology? Nobody in Eu- rope, Asia or Africa apologizes to us for building an air base, or asks our opinion about it. The War department says there is no treaty obligation forbidding such base. If there were, what of it? Treaties can be can- celled, and should be when they foolish or unjust—for further details, ask Hitler.

A greatly increased demand for tools shows that more men are getting jobs, and announcements of new wage increases, big and little, are many. Twenty-three more firms have announced better wages for 28,000 more workers. An average increase of $130 a year, less than 50 cents a day, might seem unimportant, but it means one hundred and thirty million more dollars that 1,000,000 workers will have to spend, in a year.
