2 BUSINESS LEADERS TOLD TIME IS RIPE FOR BUSINESS BOOM ‘Recovery Officials Tell Indus- trialists Not to Blunder Opportunity | - Washington, Nov. 21.—(P)—Recov- ery officials apparently consider the} time about ripe for industrialists to; improve their plants and thus in- crease employment while preparing to meet the demands of a business pick-up. Though no formal announcement of a drive to this end has been made, statements of high officials were in- terpreted Wednesday as pointed sug- gestions to business leaders. Partic- ular importance was attached to the hint thrown out by Donald Richberg, head of the national emergency coun- cil, before southern business leaders at Atlanta this week. He said: “Millions of workers and billions of dollars could be profitably employed in the next ten years, replacing ob- solete machinery and improving mechanisms of production and trans- portation.” Similar advice was given to the railroads a short time ago by Joseph B, Eastman, transportation coordina- tor. He said “it would be a blunder to neglect the large opportunities which seem to be opening up for improvement of equipment and serv- ice in the handling of the freight traffic.” Mid-November statistics by the Standard Statistics Co., showed $120,- 000,000 of capital expenditures by 19 companies undertaken or planned 80, far this year. | LABOR WELCOMES — HOUDE SHOWDOWN; Famous Case Over Collective) Bargaining Right Pushed by Government Washington, Nov. 21.— (AP) — Union labor leaders expressed elation | g Wednesday over the government’s decision to carry the famous Houde case to the courts. Employers re- action was not immediately stated. Starting in the lower c. rts, the ease is expected to travel to a quick showdown in the U. S. supreme court on controversies ranging around the collective bargaining clauses of the recovery act. The justice department’s announce- ment Tuesday night that it would ae an injunction suit against the joude Engineering Co. Buffalo, N. Y., motor car parts plant accused of violating bargaining rights of labor, came at a time when American Federation of Labor men were get- ting restive. “There will be very speedy action,” said Francis Biddle, new chairman of the national labor relations board, he had conferred with justice officials. The case—which will test the board’s ruling that spokesmen for a majority of employes in a plant rep- resent all the employes and that em- Ployers must deal with them as such —was linked in labor circles with speculation as to the nature of the new NRA that will be formed by the next congress.
