CLEVELAND, Ohio, December 5.— Representative employers and labor Jeaders in Cleveland, who have been seeking a solution of unemployment and other economic disturbances in the United States, were agreed yesterday, after extended conference, that the solu- tion of these problems eventually will be obtained by a Nation-wide shortening of ‘working hours In both business and in- dustry.

Edgar E. one of the hr‘ut employers of labor in Cleveland, took & stand in favor of a five-day week. He would “start the ball rolling “by asking President Hoover to Sut all Government employes on a fl y basis and have Congress declare Saturday a legal holi- day, he said. Alex. F. Whitney, president of the Brotherhood of Raiiroad Trainmen, was one of the labor leaders of similar opin- don. The railroad industry should be on a five-hour day or have a shorter week,” he sald. “During the past five i&rl more than 250,000 railroad men ave been thrown out of work by labor saving devices.” “Labor saving machines throw the workman out of & job, whereas he should be the first to benefit by them,” declared James J. Hoban, president of $he Cleveland Typographical Union. See Hoover Plan Temporary. Nelson Rupp, assistant to the presi- dent of the White Motor Co. said he ther that this company has no Hmit barring older men from mploy::nt. All of these employers and labor lead- ers and many others at the conference agreed that the plan of hurrying public construction projects advocated at Pres- ident Hoover's recent prosperfty confer- ence would help the economic situation in the near future, but were of the opinion that the plan will aid only temporarily. The eventual solution, they held, will put “all the people to work on & basis of five hours a day and five days & week, instead of allowing many people to be unemployed while others work eight hours a day, six days & week,” and the standard of living under the changed plan can be held just as high as at present, they said.
