HENDERSON GATEWAY TO CENTRAL CAROLINA TWENTY-SECOND YEAR MUSSOLINI FLATLY REJECTS COMPROMISE ********** * * * * * ********** ****** ft ft ft ft g Roosevelt To Ask For Huge Sums In Next Congress LARGE FUNDS FOR PUBLIC WORKS ARE REPORTED IN Mil Ickes, Sidetracked in Latest Roosevelt Order, Refus es To Affirm Or Deny Story PRESENT 4 BILLIONS ON TEMPORARY JOBS Most of It Allotted for That Purpose Under Direction! of Harry Hopkins; Public Housing Would Share Heavily in New Funds If Goven by Congress Washington, Sept. 14.—(AP) — A possibility that President Roosevelt will ask the next Congress t 0 ap propriate more millions for perma nent public works was discussed in informed circles today. Neither a confirmation nor a de nial that had been assured the Presi dent would follow such a course could be obtained from ecretary Ickes, the public works administrator. But other officials, striving to read between the lines of the presidential order setting aside the bulk of the remaining work relief fund for tem porary work under Harry L. Hopkins’ jurisdiction, thought it highly prob able that Congress would be asked for more money to salvage some per manent PWA projects. It was pointed out that since the $4.''00.000.000 works program was an nounced last winter, many communi. ties had been asked to develop PWa projects, which now have little appar ent chance to qualify for any of the $4,000,000,000. One type of public works mention ed particularly as likely to be includ ed in any new appropriation was pub lic housing. The original work relief allotment for this purpose was cut $100,000,000, by the President yestei day, this amount being made avail able instead of other PWA projects which can be started by December 15.

SATURDAY ' AFTERNOON, SEPTEMBER 14, 1935 McGrady Brings Roosevelt’s Approval of Plan After Conferring at Hyde Park Home — • TRY TO STAVE OFF INDUSTRIAL STRIFE Soft Coal Business Is Only Bad Spot in Country, and That Ought To Be Over come, Negotiators in Wash ington Are Told; New Scale Would Date Back Washington, Sept. 14.—(AP)—Thro ugh Edward F. McGrady, assistant secretary of labor, President Roose velt today tried to stop the threaten ed soft coal strike by giving his ap proval to the United Mine Workers proposal for a 15-day extension of present wages and hours, with any agreement to be retroactive. McGrady strode into the Appala chain joint wage conference and out off strike speeches by union leaders. The conference was at a standstill on negotiations toward a new con tract to succeed the agreement ex piring Sunday night. “Surely to God we’re not going to allow this industrial warfare to take place because of a retroactive clause,” McGrady roared. He told the conference that he had spent most of yesterday with Mr. Roosevelt at Hyde Park, N. Y., going over the industrial situation. “The enly bad spot in the country, he said, is the soft coal industry and we believe this spot ought to be over, come.” After McGrady left, Philip Murray, union vice-president, offered a motion that a 15-day extension with a retro active clause be approved. Hence, if a new agreement negotiat ed within the next 15 days contains wage increases, the miners would be paid at the ne wrate for the period of the extension. The conference recessed for a few minutes after Murray’s motion was offered to allow the operators time to consider it.

The opinion is that Senator Long, with his follow ing, might have 'been a serious de fection from the Democrats in an in dependent move. The loss of conser vative Democrats would not be felt so keenly by President Roosevelt.
