Broad The momentum leading to Boulder Dams and Columbia Basins looked good— Here was Conservation glorified in its native hills— Until some Cynic interrupted by asking: What for? Why all the excitement about light ing up cities that are dying? What's the reason for irrigating, and then killing little pigs? Why the increase in commodity sources when the market is £one? Is there reason for building Supply when Demand is dead? The date is already fixed when the Census will show population's ebb— Not until the Depression did the Great Minds accept the logic— ^*.^-%w,..w M»iT.4J.,.n,tfwiitipi ,.^~—-r- r-v v'".

Q.—Is the move by labor for the six-hour day a development of the de pression years? A.—Labor has seen the movement coming for many years- In 1919, the American Federation of Labor con vention declared that many unions doubtless soon would demand the six hour day and the executive council was directed to give help to all such organizations. CREED Of Employers Scored By Mgr. Ryan Attacking the spirit of greed which animates employers, the Most Rev. John A. Ryan, of Catholic University, Washington, D. C., told a meeting of 1,000 persons at the Roman Catholic Church of the Resurrection in Rye, N. Y., that the greatest danger which faces the people of the United States today is the policy held by influential business and political leaders who maintain that as economic conditions improve governmental or other re strictions on industry should be abol ished. His subject was "The Indus trial Outlook Today and Tomorrow." In scoring "avaricious" employers in the United States, Mgr. Ryan said: 'The avariciousness which has again become alive in a -great proportion of industrialists is only equaled by their stupidity. The masses of America will not tolerate a return to the practices of the 1930's. They will not indefinite ly endure existence on relief and they will not be satisfied with poverty in a county which can supply plenty." Mgr- Ryan criticised the policy of the NRA which refused the workers adequate representation in its admin istrative bureaus and code bodies, and declared that if this labor represen tation had been adopted the plan might have developed along the lines of an industrial order outlined by Pope Pius XI. He asserted that even if industrial conditions improve until they reach the 1929 level, the funda mental problem in the United States would not be solved because of the increase in productive capacity. Laws For Social Security Are Backed By the Public By A. F. of L. Mews Service. Even though the federal social se curity act setting up a system of un employment insurance and old age pensions is declared unconstitutional, legislation embodying the principles of the act will inevitably be made stat utory because the program has re ceived such a large measure of public support. Thomas E. Shearer, editor of the Prentice-all Labor and Unem ployment Insurance Service, declared in a talk before the New York Trade Association Executives, Mr, Shearer told the industrial lead? ers it was to the advantage of every business organization to forward the movement for the enactment of state goeial security laws because of the provision in the federal act exeinptingp from federal taxation up to 90 per cent of the amounts paid by business concerns under state security laws.
