The unemployment plank provides for immediate Federal and State aid to the | unemployed, for unemployment insur- | ance, for complete payment of World War compensation and for the feeding and clothing of 1,000,000 single men in Army camps. | Loan Suspension. The real estate moratorium plank also calls for Federal land banks to | refinance small interest-bearing notes | peeded to sustain life An agriculture plank calls for pro- | vision of storage facilities by the Gov- ernment to carry over grains essential | to meet a contingency such as famine | or drought and for appointment of of- | ficers on the r¥arm Board who are “in | Muscle Shoals legislation in line with | sympathy with giving sid to American farmers and not to spectators and bankers who zre now reaping the prof- commission | its of agriculture.” | Tariff Reduction.

SPOKANE, Wash., December 4—In- dustry was warned today that millions of men and women in the working masses will turn to Government or take any road which wili lead to security thinking. P. G. Spilsbury, Phoenix, Ariz., mem- ber of President Hoover's Unemploy- ment Committee, sounded the warning in an dddress to the Western divisional conference of the United States Cham- ber of Commerce, Out of the pell mell age, Spilsbury sald, has come a class of executives “who think too often in terms of ma- chines, losing the broad human fact that steel mills, railroads, factories and mines were conceived by the brain and reared by the hands of men.” “Security for the future of industry,” he said, “can only be obtained by first insuring the stability of the family. As one step in the solution, Spilsbury proposed that one-half of one per cent of the value of all corporation stocks TH HELD DANGEROUS {Job Committee Member Tells |1t would simply unless humanity replaces machine-age | be collected for the benefit of the owner corporation as a stabilization fee.
