HOW ROOSEVELT GOT SUGGESTION ABOUT ONE CODE Obscure Machinist’s Plaint Gives President New Line of Thought (By HERBERT PLUMMER) WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.—There is mo better illustration of how the mind of President Roosevelt works than that contained in his recent letter extending the life of the au- tomobile code for 90 days. In his letter to William Green, President of the American Fed- eration of Labor, and Alvin Mac- auley, President of the Automobile Manufacturers' Association, Mr, Roosevelt frankly stated there were a4 number of matters in the code with which he never had been sat- isfled. One of these concerned the possibility of having reason- able assurance of year-round em- ployment in the industry. “It is not very useful” he said, “to pay a man $10 a day if he is employed only 65 days in the year . . . . Statements have been made that the average earnings of au- tomotive employees have been less than $900 per year for the entire group.” THE MACHINIST'S VIEW It is necessary to recall an in- cldent which occurred as far back § early last spring to get the full import of this suggestion. It was during the time the auomobile industry was beset by labor diffi- culties. ““din an effort to restore peace to Fthe industry, representatives of " both the manufacturers and work- ers. were summoned to the White ‘3jouse for conferences with the President. In the latter group was ‘unknown automobile machinist. During the discussion, the Pres- |ident is reported to have singled | |out this machinist and asked him | what salary he was paid. | “Ten dollars a day,” he replied, | The President then is said to have made the remark that 10 dol- lars a day was a rather fair wage for these times. “But, Mr. President,” the ma- | chinist replied: “I worked only | 65 days last year.” | AN ANNUAL WAGE | That obscure machinist didn't | realize at the time that he started | a though in the mind of Mr. Roosevelt, which later was to be translated into action. | In this case what appeared to | be a strong possibility of an out- and-out defeat for labor was) changed to something wholly un- | expected by the automotive work- ers—the use of the President’s| executive powers to forward an in- | quiry into the possibility of hav- ing the automobile industry ar-| range its affairs to pay an annual | wage.
