REBUKE AT PROBE
N. R. A. Session Outbreak
Brings Threat to Call
Police for Order.
BJ the Associated Press.
A sudden burst of applause from
spectators while Senate Finance Com
mittee members clashed over ques
tioning of Sidney Hillman In the
N. R. A. investigation today, brought
demands for police to enforce order.
Hillman, a member of the Recovery
Board and head of the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers, was testifying in
favor of an extension of N. R. A.
The applause broke out when Sen
ator Costlgan, Democrat, of Colorado,
protested that Hillman was not on
trial and should be permitted to
answer questions In his own way.
Senators King, Democrat, of Utah,
and Walsh, Democrat, of Massa
chusetts, had protested that Hillman
was not answering the questions.
As hand-clapping swept the crowded
chamber. Senator Hastings, Republi
can. of Delaware warned the specta
tors they were guests of the commit
tee and suggested police should be
called to compel quiet.
Alien Birth Brought Out.
Hillman's defense of N. R. A. pre
viously had been interrupted by com
mittee questions about his Russian
origin. He was presenting a mass of
statistics intended to show the im
provement of labor conditions under
the Blue Eagle when King broke in
to read a portion of the clothing
workers’ constitution advocating con
trol of Industry by labor.
Hillman replied that had been
dropped from the constitution of the
organization 10 or 15 years ago.
“You put It in after you came from
Russia?” King asked.
“Of course.” Hillman replied. “I
was born in Russia.’’
Questioned by King, the bespectacled
labor leader said he came from Russia
in 1906, had been naturalized for 20
years and had visited Russia three
times since the war.
Walsh and King reprimanded HUl
! man for making speeches Instead of
1 answering questions.
Hillman protested he was answer
ing the questions.
"This Is sot a court trial,” Oostlgan
interjected. "I hope the witness will
be permitted to answer the questions
in his own way.”
This brought the applause from the
crowd filling the big committee room
which stopped the hearing for a mo
ment.
Spectators Reprimanded.
Hastings then reprimanded the
spectators:
“I wonder If the audience appreci
ates.” he said, “that it is here at the
courtesy of the committee. I don’t
see why we must be interrupted by
that sort of a demonstration."
Hastings added that if there was a
repetition of the incident Capitol
police would be called to maintain
order.
Continuing after this Interruption,
Hillman said production in December
was 63 per cent of 1929 levels, ss com
pared with 48 per cent two years
earlier.
Pay rolls, he said, In the same time,
went up from 38 per cent of 1929
levels to 57 per cent.
“I don’t believe any one can explain
that away by natural causes,” he said.
Wages in the clothing industry.
Hillman said, had slumped until
“purchasing power was reduced to a
*
degree that there was nothing else
to look forward to but a complete
paralysis of Industry.”
He testified the 36-hour week In the
cotton garment industry bad added
20,000 workers In the last two months,
saying employment was 147,000 In
February, or 11 per cent more than a
year before.
Fears Trade Relapse.
Failure to extend N. R. A., Hillman
said, would bring a reduction In
wages and employment.
He contended an Omaha trucking
company already had served notice
of a 10 per cent wage cut on the be
lief N. R. A. was not to be extended.
Testifying yesterday after Clarence!
Darrow had put the whole New Deal
on trial before he nnlshed assailing
N. R. A., Hillman told the committee
abolition of the recovery organization
would be followed by an “unemploy
ment situation worse than in 1932-33."
Hillman, almost stern In mien, asked
that the recovery law be strengthened,
rather than weakened. When New
Deal policies were Inaugurated, he
said, the country was “drifting to a
complete stagnation of Industry."
“I would hate to think what would
have happened If the new administra
tion had not come In with its new
policies,” he added.
