The Dole in Germany Labor Minister, Predicting W orst Crisis Since Napole- onic Wars, Says Social I nsurance Is Threatened Along With Jobless Aid. BY HENRY J. ALLEN, 1 Pormer U. 8. Senator and Governor of | ansas, Who. after & comprehensive first survey of the development and p operation of the dole in England. continued that survey in the Pa! land. Following Is the third of a series of jarticles giving the results of his study The ministez of labor, Dr. Adam Stegerwald, has informed the public| with courageous candor that the nation faces its severest crisis since the Na- poleonic wars. In the dreaded Winter ahead, he said, relief would need to be granted in food instead of cash doles. He called attention to the fact that not only had the provision for paying unem- ployment insurance benefits falled to meet the situation, but that even the | fund for compulsory soclal insurance | now was endangered. With nearly 20 per cent of the average basic wage now seized for social insurance (old| age, sickness, invalidism), and with other source of taxation exhausted, he pointed out, it became a serious ques- tion as to how the 4,000,000,000 marks per year required by the old social in- | surance were to be raised, to say noth- ing of the almost equal amount neces- sary to maintain the unemployed insur- ance fund. | Half the chimneys in the Ruhr Val- | ley—the industrial heart of Germany— are smokeless; a wholesale transfer of unemployed to catagory 3, the “wel- fare class.” is in prospect. Through all the commercial, eco- | nomic, industrial gloom, I found just one motive rising to give voice to the spiritual impuises of the older, the preg Prussian, Germany. | Crusade Move Started. | Baron von der Repp has started the “Christian Crusade” movement to train the thought of the people to the pros- pect of severai years of comparative unemployment. Their only salvation is | to make a virtue of poverty: to learn that one can be poor and yet be happy, | and that there is such a thing as being “spiritually wealthy.” The movement is distinctly infectious. | Its influence is expanding, and it is doing an undeniable good at an hour of deep depression. Something along the same line of thought may be found in the renewed activities of religlous revivals reported by Free Methodist and other Protestant church leaders. But except for this intangible spirit- ual note, the situation today and th> prospect immediately ahead of the German unemployed is doleful in the extreme meaning of the term. | Dealing with the trades unions’ wish | that unemployment be diminished by @ general reduction of working hou: which would enable employers to in- | crease the staff of workmen, Minister Stegerwald emphasized in his candid report to the nation that Germany was confronted with an imperative necessity to force her exports. A reduction of hours to the suggested 40-hour weck | vould mean a heavy increase in cost of production, thereby badly handicapping export trade. He kept away from a dis- cussion of the possibility of & reduction | NOW OPEN RESTAURANT PIERRE | CONN. AVE.

There still is a subconscious realiza- one of the desir- it of labor, is that it should stabilize es by taking the unemployed out of the market as competitors of those who were still employed. The industrialists who, naturally, desired that wage levels skould respond to increasing unemploy- ment, are agitated at the suggestion that a 40-hour week be substituted for the 48-hour week with no reduction of wages. They call attention to the fact that with practically one-fourth of Germany's wage earners and salarisd employes out of jobs. anc with the pub. lic extending them aid, it is contrary to every economic la'w that there should be no reduction in wage levels. The emgloyers have consented to this situation, but declare it would be ruin- ous to them if wage levels were now to be given the sensational increase pro- posed by shortening the working time to 40 hours at the same wage as now paid for 48 hours. It is stated that according to recent figures 37.5 per cent of the labor unien workers are unemployed, 19.5 p:r cent are working short time; only 43 per cent are on full time. You get a partial realization of this as you go through the greater indus- trial districts of Germany. I rode in an airplane over the industrial cities of the Ruhr Velley to count the smokestacks | that were idle. I was told that I would find half of them smokeless. It did not scem to me this estimate was far wrong. The situation is worse today then when the percentages given above were made.

The TAVERN Open N OCTOBER | | i | | | o 5 193 made by Dr. !yrug. president _of the Federal Insurance Bureau; Dr. Brauns, former minister of labor, now chairman of the Committee of Experts, and Dr. Stegerwald. Abuses in Four Classes. ‘Thes: members have agreed that it is impossible to place unemployment in- surance on a plane with the other in. surance systems, such as health, old age and invalid insurance. They declare frankly that the results have proven the fallacy of all previous calculations. Not- withstanding that the size of the con- tributions to thé fund had been in- creased four times insolvency of the fund cannot be avoided. ‘The committee deals with the abuses of the system by those who have delib- erately taken advantage of opportuni- ties. They separate these abuses into four classes. P masked employment: that is drawing the dole as unemplocyed and working on the sly. Second, “feigned employment,” that is to get on the list s ellxrt:re to the dole by proving through collusion with some friendly employer that they have been employed. Third, spurious control stamps and cards Fourth, change of occupations. For ex- ample, one changes from household du- ties to an insurable occupation, thus gets on the dole, then goes back to do- mestic work, while still drawing the dole. ‘The committee has received no less than 3,000 suggestions for correcting abuses, making reformations, etc., and has indicated 2an interest in three basic changes. First, the budget of the unemployment insurance fund must be radically forced to balance, either by raising all contributions or ts and restricting “extended insurance class.” The second suggestion is the immediate introduction of the test of need. This implies the cancellation of the legal benefit claim. It means & more just distribution to all who are tually in need and exclusion from benefits of those insured persons who cannot qualify under a severe appli- cation of the test of need. It is pro- posed that all upper wage classes be removed, thus enabling the bureau to raise benefits to lowest wage classes. Short Week Widely Discussed. But the most discussed of all the proposals is the 40-hour week, to which I have already referred. The sole recommendation of this is that it brings direct and g;:ctlcnl relief to the labor market. e Brauns Com- mittee is discussing it as a plan to be legally adopted and enforced. Such employers as feel they could continue under this shorter schedule of hours are protesting that it should not be made compulsory. They wish to retain final decision as to how the shorter week is to be introduced into the various industries without interfering with production plans. Dr. Stegerwald, the Labor mil ment and the present crisis is to r duce generally all production costs, which would be followed by reduction of prices, bringing an increased pur- chasing power by the masses, thus pro- viding new orders, more work at the factories, more trade at the shops. this system of logical sequences is set forth, but no suggestion is made as to how the scheme of reduced costs is to be launched, so it remains a logical generalization.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla., October 3.— | Dr. Leslie D. Ritcnle and his son were released from custody here early today when Mrs. Benjamin P. llings failed to identify them as the “pirates” who recently boarded the Collings yacht on Long Island Sound, killed her husband and abducted her.

She singled them out readily, but, she said, it was because she had previously seen pictures of them.
