Labor Group Now
Meeting Florida
Approve New Deal
Rough Outline Of President’s
Plans Given By Two White
House Emissaries
Green-Lewis Feud
Secretary Perkins Plans Con
ference With Union Leaders
At Early Date
The annual convention of Ameri
can Federation of Labor, meeting
this week in Tampa, Fla., en
thusiastically applauded the tenta
tive outline of President Roose
velt’s new program for the coming
four years. The plan was roughly
outlined by two White House
emissaries.
Miss Perkins also said the
Walsh-liealy government contract
act, regarded by labor as an NRA
substitute, must be broadened in
its scope, and that “a strong union
movement” was an essential sup
plement to a legislative program.
Ilerry predicted presidential elec
tion results would lead the Sup
reme Court to an about-face in
judging New Deal legislation, and.
said his Labor-Industry council
would have a legislative program
ready for congress, soon. The elec
tion results, he added, also brought
many previously antagonistic busi
ness men into the council.
The convention’s biggest issue—
the feud between John L. Lewis’
rebel unions and the federation’s
I old guard over organization policy
| —simmered throughout the day.
Max Zaritsky, president of the
United Hatters, Cap and Millinery
Workers, the only member of
Lewis’ rebel committee to come to
the convention, arrived with “noth
ing J,o say.”
*■*'I have no rabbit to pull out of
my hat,” Zaritsky added when
asked whether ho had any new
peace plans.
Miss Perkins disclosed she was
planning a conference with union
leaders to “discuss plans for legis
lation in which they arc particular
ly interested.” She spoke of a na- j
tionai living wage, continuity of
.income, stability of employment
and “guidance for the conservation
and maximum utilization of na
tural resources” as a formula for
progress. She also urged ratifica
tion of the child labor amendment
and cooperative action by states in
raising labor standards.
After saying he “ventured we
| will find a legal way of furthering
j liberalism,” if the Supreme Court
I killed more New Deal legislation,
j Ilerry asserted the “great task” be
I fore his council was preparation of
I “a sound and balanced program
j which will advance the general i
■ welfare by stabilizing industry.” .

TWO FASCIST POWERS
RECOGNIZE SPANISH REBELS
Rome.—The first recognition of
the insurgent regime in Spain
came Wednesday in a joint move
by Germany and Italy, the two
great fascist powers who have al
ready been accused by Spain and
Russia of aiding the rebels. The
official report stated that Francis
co Franco’s provisional govern
ment provided the only stable gov
erning power in Spain.
. mission only Monday- It was one
of 18 highway projects approved
for North Carolina, and the sum of
$1,740,000 has been set aside for
the work. Bids for these projects
will be received until November
30.
The exact time which will be
consumed in this work has not been
definitely announced, possibly be
cause weather conditions will af
fect the completion of the job. The
general impression has gone out
that the road will be completed
within three weeks, but many of
the men who are connected with
the job are planning a Bix-week’s
stay in Randolph. Meanwhile the
residents of that section, as well as
tourists, are using a dusty and
muddy detour.

i Program Bogins Jan. 1, 19.'!7.
But No Benefits Paid
Until 1912
I Workers Numbered
; Social Security Board Prepar
ed To Assist Up To
30,000,000 Employees
The social security law is a prac
tical beginning within the limits
of practicable accomplishment, al
though it makes no attempt to cov
er every conceivable form of eco
nomic misfortune of every class of
citizen. The act makes no pretense
of being a cure-all. It attempts to
mitigate some of the economic dis
tress which has afflicted our peo
ple'.
It seeks, through its maternal
and child welfare provisions, ser
vices for crippled children, voca
tional rehabilitation and extension
of public health services, to safe
guard health and enable children
and adults to overcome physical
handicaps and economic malad
justments.
The provision for aid to depen
dent children will mean many
children will be reared in their own
good homes rather than taken from
those homes, where the only fault
is poverty, and reared in cold, im
personal public institutions at the
expense of their communities.
It is estimated that there are j
more than 1,000,000 dependent,
children in the United States. Und
er the social security act, the fed
eral government takes outright
grants to states with approved
laws to aid them in caring for
these helpless children in their own
homes. The federal law places 'io
limit on the amount a state may
provide for the care of a dependent
child. It provides that there shall
be granted to the state one-third
of the amount it allows up to .$18
a month for the first dependent
child and $12 a month for each ad
ditional child.
Turning from the provisions for
mothers and children, we find the
law seeks to safeguard maturity
against the slings and arrows of
economic misfortune by providing
j a state-federal unemployement
compensation program.
! Unemployment compensation
! provides temporary relief against
I loss of income during temporary
unemployment. Here again, as in
instances heretofore mentioned,
state legislation is needed, and in
consequence, there is no universal
standard for rate of compensation,
period of waiting before compensa
tion begins, nor the length of time
during which it shall continue.
