C, FRIDAY, JUNE 19, 1931, OUTLINES PLAN 10 AVOID SLUMP Matthew Woll Tells Radio Audience of Congress of Industry Program. Further detalls of his proposed Con- gress of Industry, which would map a 10-year program of development “'I signed to avoid commercial slumps, were Matthew Woll, .vice president of the American Federation of Labor, speaking over a Natlonal Broadcasting Co. hook- up from Station WOR, Newark, N. J. Sharing the program with him was James W. Gerard, chalrman of the Na- tional Civic Federation’s Commission on Industrial Inquiry, who has invited more than 600 national organizations | to_participate in the proposed congress. Mr. Woll expressed these hopes for his congress: “It is proposed to bring about an _authorized, representative gathering of persons who can speak for the economic forces of the Nation, and to make a beginning in the voluntary adoption of rules of procedure and the invitation of operations which shall lead to the construction of a national scheme of economic operation. This must include industry, trade, transport, agriculture, labor, extraction of raw materials, credit and finance channels and service equipment. “Such a plan of economic balancing should embrace the determination of the annual national human require- ments in commodities and service, say for an ensuing 10 years; the ediate visible supply of required commodities; the apportioning of required labor hours for the required production and han- dling, to point of consumption, of such commodities; the character and extent of industrial equipment required to in- telligently guide the task of its design, construction and installation; the im- mediate and continuing distribution of the necessities of life among the entire population, using all resources of em- ployment, manufacture and credit dis- tribution requisite to that end, and the outline of legal enactments necessary and convenient to remove obstacles to facilitate the operations of the gested program. . . . The Congress of Industry that is in mind should out- line its own course and direct it own destiny.” Revenue on “Pasteboards” Is| Greater During Unemployment. | By the Associated Press.
