By the Associated Press. ALEXANDRIA, Va, May 4.—John Hopkins Hall, jr., Virginla commissioner of labor and industry, told the Virginia conference of social work, in session here today, that President Hoover's Na- tional Unemployment Relief Committee was little more than a political gesture. | The Virginia commissioner asserted that so far as the unemployment situa- tion in Virginia is concerned, “Republi- can politics of the Harding administra- tion type, rather than a co-operative effort to widen the scope and increase the efficisncy of the service,” has pre- dominated the reorganization of unem- | ployment rellef facilitles and agencies, | since veto of the Wagner bill. Data Furnished. “Our department has furnished data on the unemployment situation in the State of Virginia to Federal officials and used its influence in bringing about the | passage of the Wagner bills, the chief I of which providing Federal-State co-op- erative employment service, our Federal Government's chief engineer, Hoover, pocket-vetoed,” he said. ‘“Thus the most constructive effort of the Federal Government to alleviate the situation availed nothing. “In vetoing the Wagner employment service bill the President and Secretary of Labor Doak gave the destruction of State’s rights as one of the main rea- sons for such action.” he continued. “Yet the reorganization of the Federal Employment Service which is now tak | ing place is resulting in the complete destruction of the present or ation in the State of Virginia. ganization has gone on without the least disposition to advise with or co- operate with, in a satisfactory way, our department and the officlals of the State of Virginia.” Propaganda Charged. Mr. Hall said that, with all due re- | spect, to Chairman Woods and the other members of the committee, it has “de- veloped that the National Committee was more a fact-finding propaganda | committee than one of functional re- lief.” “In the final analysis,” he added, “the localities were left to work out | their own salvation. The assertions were made in an ad- dress on “Unemployment and Its Ef- fects in Virginia,” in which Commis- sioner Hall discussed reasons, effects, co-operation, Federal and local; eco; nomic and social results and precaution | for the future and other general aspects of depression and unemployment. He saffl that at the present there are approximately 60,000 unemployed in Virginia. These, he said, with an aver- age of from two to three dependents, would indicate from 150,000 to 180.000 persons in the State are without sub- stantial means of support.
