PROVO SAFETY COUNCIL AN INDEPENDENT NEWSPArEK Business Must Give Jobs to Unemployed Or Pay Says Berry Government Will Provide Employment if Industry Fails, Says Coordinator; Unemployment Unem-ployment Out of Line With Pickrup WASHINGTON Dec. 7 (U.R) The New Deal presented American business this take-it-or-leave-it proposition today: You give jobs to the unemployed, or we will and send you the bill In one of the most clear-cut statements of policy yet made by any chieftain of the administration, Maj. George L. Berrv President Roosevelt's coordinator for industrial cooperation, co-operation, said that unless business jtsejf provides employment employ-ment for the 11,000,000 worklessT men, the New Deal will continue its relief activities with attendant high taxes and possibly increasing deficits. "Tt is as simple as that," said j Berry, head of the powerful press, men's union, and a key man in the organization of the national recovery re-covery administration before its supreme court demise, "The country's unemployed must be fed and clothed. If industry will not do it by providing them work, then the government must do it with relief appropriations. Business Busi-ness foots the bill in either event, and there is no other answer." He continued in an interview with the United Press: "According to the records, the improvement of business is out of balance with unemployment, which has been reduced only slightly. There is evidence of considerable breakdown in working hour regulations, regu-lations, and there can be no doubt this means an acceleration or unemployment." un-employment." "If the tendency to increase hours is not curbed and that immediately, im-mediately, unemployment will increase in-crease in staggering proportions. Maj Berry will deliver the New Deal's 'views to business Monday, when about 2.000 delegates gather here for his long-heralded parley between labor, industry and the administration.

Verne McCullough, Boyer's attorney, said the man had not been given a preliminary hearing. He cited a section from the 1935 aes-sion laws providing that a corn- mitting magistrate, after the state has presented its evidence. must ask the defendant if he has anything to say and apprise him of his rights.

WPA FURNISHES JOBS TO 3000 150 Relief Clients in Utah County Yet To Be Placed in Jobs. Job merchants. Work dealers. They are the persons in the National Na-tional Reemployment Service, who have placed 3000 persons in Works Progress Administration work in the local district since November and placed 300 more in private employment. em-ployment. Since the big WPA drive started start-ed recently virtually every one of the heads of families on relief have been placed on jobs, all handled through the NRS. There are still about 150 left in Utah county who are idle, but in Juab and Wasatch counties, the entire relief group are placed on WPA jobs. Non-Rlief Oases Present Problem Men and women who are not on relief present another problem. No public works jobs to any extent ex-tent have opened recently and there are about 1500 men and 1000 women on the active file of the NRS who are idle, according to W. L. Mildenhall, manager. The number of idle has been cut down by 300 through the activities activi-ties of the NRS, however, and many of these have obtained permanent per-manent employment by getting in touch with employers through the service. All kinds of workers have been placed; store clerks, laborers, miners, housekeepers, stenographers, stenograph-ers, bookkeepers and a host of others. Since November 1 another 600 have registered for employment, Mr. Mildenhall says. Sharon Ward Wins Honors A splendid act by the Sharon ward, "Light," directed by W. M.

During the holiday season, the volume of mail increases in-creases 200 per cent, he said. It is impossible to handle all this mass of mail in the last few days before Christmas. If the public will shop and mail early the parcels par-cels will reach their destination before Christmas. Mr. Dangerfield also points out the need of the placing: full postage post-age on the letters and packages and to insure them so they can be traced, if lost. A slip,, of paper should be placed in all packages, giving the name and address of the sender and the name and Address Ad-dress of the addressee.

Gillman of Orem on the executive board of the Utah Central Sugar Beet Growers' association, featured featur-ed the meeting held in the district dis-trict court room Saturday, which was spiced by an excited discussion discus-sion of the forthcoming contract for 1936 beets. Mr. Gillman, who is a member of the National board and has served on the Central board for 12 years, was defeated for re-election by a substantial vote, led by opposition op-position from growers in the south end of the county. Re-elected to the board were William Chadwick, American Fork, president; John Alleman, Springville, Spring-ville, secretary, and Harold Simmons, Sim-mons, Payson, for two year terms, and Francis S. Lundell, Benjamin for a one-year term- Mr. Knudsen was elected for a one-year term. A better contract for next year, is the aim of the Utah county growers. Several growers made bitter denunciations against alleged alleg-ed "discrimination" declaring that growers in Sevier county for instance, in-stance, get from 70 cents to $1.15 more a ton for their beets. "Utah county growers are charged charg-ed up for bad investments made by the Utah-Idaho Sugar company," com-pany," one man asserted, citing the nonworking plants at Lehi, Pleasant Pleas-ant Grove and elsewhere, as examples. ex-amples. The Utah county growers hope to enlist the representatives from other counties in their fight for what they declare is a more equitable equit-able contract. 3- ed must be securely packed and crated or boxed. Use a liberal quantity of excelsior. They should be marked "fragile." Perishable articles should be marked "perishable." It is well to send them by special delivery. No parcel may be more than 100 inches in lenh and girth combined nor 70 pounds in weight. Special delivery stamp on letters let-ters and packages insure prompt service upon reaching destination. Valuable articles or papers should be registered. "The local office is appreciative! of the public support of the "mail early" slogan in the past and hope it will be supported this Christmas, Christ-mas, as we expect the holiday business to be much larger for 1935 than is was in 1934," said the postmaster. t.

PRICE FIVE CENTS Hearing Set By City Commission For December 19 Public hearing on the 1936 Provo city budget will be held in the city commission rooms Thursday morning, December 19, starting at 10 a. m., it was announced Saturday by the commissioners, after tentatively tenta-tively approving a budget which is approximately $13,000 less than the appropriations for this year. The total budget setup so far for next year is $162,975. Last year it was $169,062 to start with. But during the year the commissioners commis-sioners have made additions that amount to $6,900. Thus the 193C budget is actually $12,987 lower than the appropriations for 1935. Lower Waterworks Budget Tne The waterworks department budget ,s setup tentatively for J?50. .which Is J6.072.50 lower inan tnfe appropnauons ior mis year w totalled $70,422.50.

This amounts to $4,067 more than the budget. In the waterworks department, the estimated revenues are $68,. 800 and the budget $64,350, leaving leav-ing $4,450 unappropriated surplus As the total budget indicates, there have been few changes in the 1936 budeet as compared with that of 1935, although a few de- partments show a fluctuation down or up. In the public improvements department, de-partment, for instance, the budget is setup for $5000, a decrease of $1000 under last year. The irrigation irriga-tion department has" jumped up $500, the public welfare department depart-ment is down from $11,550 to $9,-500, $9,-500, the decrease coming because there is no special audit of $600, no election expense of $1600, and interest notes are down from $4500 to $2000. Increases come in this same department, however, with, .raises inthe.ordtnanrA.iund and emergencies. There is a tentative appropriation appropria-tion of $1000 more in the public library department, which would raise this budget from $6,500 to $7,500. The police department budget will be cut from $16,500 to $13,000. and the fire department budget remains about the same, $14,100. Last year it was $14,850 originally. The police budget was originally $13,000, but was raised $3ouu tnis year for the purpose of equiping the department with guns, finger print outfit, and automobile and the like. The streets department remains the same, at $21,375. Ih the public improvement appropriation ap-propriation of $5000 is included $3000 for a power rate investigation, investiga-tion, with $2000 for other improvements. improve-ments. Service Station Bandit Sought A highwayman who held Gordon Billings at the point of a gun Friday night, forced him to hand over nine dollars in cash from the till of the Davis Service station sta-tion at Seventh East and Third South streets, is being sought by Provo and Utah county officers today. The robber fled south on the Springville road after the stickup but may have turned west near the cemetery, said Billings. The tail light of his automobile went out at about Ninth South. After Officers O. E. Pederson and Fred D. Loveless investigated the case they found that a car with Indiana license plates had been stolen in Salt Lake City about 6:30. It was a black 1935 V-8 sedan with green wire wheels. Billings also obtained a good description of the man, who he said was about 5 feet 11 inches tall, weighed approximately 160 pounds. |
