The number of persona without any employment he pute at 8.S48.000. Those without joba In industry In September numbered Joba for 2,2"J0,00 were provided by conservation camps and emergency relief projects, "but these emergency Jobs." he said, "are not creating Incomes to pay the costs."

"The total number at work In the In Cnlted States was 39.76-1.001033 ; by September, September, 1934, It had declined to 39.307,0ix. During these 12 months the normal Increase In population has added close to 450,000 to the army of Job Keekers for whom Industry provides no work. Thus the number without work in Industry has risen from 10,108.000 in September. 1933, to 10.9T.1.000 In September, 1934." Quite as gloomy as Mr. Green's report was a statement of the National Industrial Conference board. This agency noted that the general Improvement In manufacturing activity usually occurring In September failed to materialize. Instead, declines of 5.7 per cent In the number of wage earners employed, of 6.1 per cent In total man hours worked and of 5.8 per cent In payrolls disbursed, were reported. In addition. It was stated, the rise in the cost of living from August to September depressed real weekly earnings of wage earners 2.1 per I re-e- e . cent On the other hand, the United Etates Chamber of Commerce in its summary of conditions throughout the nation reports continued improvement of business sentiment although it has not as yet been reflected definitely In the volume of transactions. persons MANX thoughtful on the apparent discrepancy between the pleas of William Green for more employment and the policy pursued by organized labor In fostering great strikes seem lngly for the sole purpose of enforcing unionization and the closed shop. Many thousands of persons are thrown out of employment by these strikes, Industries are hampered or shut down and often serious disorders result To the bystander it does not seem fair that. In a time of distress, such methods should be followed In order that the strength of the unions might be increased. The latest example of this policy is the strikes which brought about the closing of all the Great Atlantic and Paciflc Ten company's shops and warehouses in Cleveland and which went in effect In Milwaukee against the A. and P. and two other chain store comThere was a prospect panies. that these walkouts would spread throughout Ohio and Wisconsin.

Mr. Roosevelt predicted flatly that the cost of living will advance substantially within the next eight months. When he made this statement at his regular press conference he also cautioned reporters to remember that an Increase In cost of living meant an Increase In com modify and property values, thereby lessening the diiliculty In paying debts. This Is one of the avowed aims of the Roosevelt program.

Pear son, charges that the present administration of the islands is "wasteful, extravagant, Inefficient, and tainted with corruption." Yates was recently suspended and ordered to Washington for an Inquiry by Secretary Ickes, who accused him of "disloyalty, insubordination, and gross Inefticiency," and in general of being a trouble maker. Yates resigned Immediately and came to Washington, but chose to ignore Secretary Ickes office, carrying his plaints Instead directly to congress. He charges that Mr. Ickes has been "outrageously deceived" by Governor Pearson and subordinate officials of the Interior department, has ignored "complaints, petitions, and specific charges" presented by the citizens of the Islands, and has dealt with officials "in a peculiarly harsh, cruel, and dictatorial man- F 1 LiVi ner." The petition further charges that minor officials in the Interior department aided and abetted Governor Pearson to "whitewash a major public works scandal and deceived the secretary of the Interior regarding public works and the general situation, and were criminally negligent in the performance of their duty." Secretary Ickes Is accused of making prejudicial and injurious remarks about T. Webber Wilson, Judge of the Federal District court in the islands, remarks which "reflect unjustly upon the federal Judiciary and which are unbefitting the dignity of a cabinet ofiicer" Ickes also is. accused of "unjustiy and at the Instance of Governor Pearson," having removed from office Charles H.
