N.R.A. DATA GIVEN 10 SHOW SUCCESS Administration Reply to Brookings Institution Seen in Perkins Review. Tn what was regarded here as an administration reply to the findings of the Brookings Institution . that N. R. A. had failed to stimulate re- covery, Secretary of Labor Perkins vesterday produced facts and fgures | which she said showed clearly that the Recovery Administration had been a big factor in the march out of depression. | Miss Perkins' arguments and sta- tistics were made public in an ad- dress prepared for delivery at Duke University. Using figures on condi- tions in March, 1933, as compared with conditions in March of this year, Secretary Perkins contended the trend had been distinctly in the direction of increased earning, fac- | tory production and retail trade. i Weekly Pay Roll Gain. She said: “Weekly pay rolls in the 90 manu- | facturing industries surveyed monthly | by the Department of Labor were 91 | per cent larger than in March, 1933, | when not adjusted to changes in the | cost of living, and 74 per cent larger | in terms of purchasing power after adjustment to retail price changes. “It is estimated that from March, | 1933, to March, 1935, the cost of | living of wage earners and lower salaried employes advanced p proximately 10 per cent. During thi: period food prices advanced 34.5 per cent. From March, 1933, to June, 1934, food rose 202 per cent, and from June, 1934, to March. 1935 largely as @ result of the drought, 119 per cent.. "Oglev.he basis of reports to the De- partment of Labor, detailed compari- sons may be made between March, 1933, and March, 1935.

During the civil works program. the | commission estimated there would be 80 injuries per 1,000,000 man hours | of employment. of which 76 would cause temporary disability. 3.5 per- manent disability, and .5 death. 436,800 Injuries Seen. On that basis, if the 3,500.000 men to be given relief jobs work 30 hours a week each in the next vear. there would be 436.800 injuries anc 2.730 deaths. “At the time the C. W. A estimate was prepared.” Willlam McCauley, secretary of the commission. said, “The commission was informed that the program would involve 1.796.000.- 000 man hours of employment. Our frequency rate, which was more or less arbitrary. would call for 143680 injuries and 898 deaths. “The records of the commission show that 166.538 cases of injury have By * HOBBERY SOLVED Postal Inspectors Find | Hideaway and Recover | FALLRNVERMAL 730 Deaths, 436,800 Injuries Expected on New Relief Jobs been reported from civil works em- ployment. “The records further indicate that the severity rate was too high for fatal cases * * * that 764 fatal cases were reported to the commission, but |less than half of this number has been found compensable.” The work-relief law provides for the extension of compensation at rates provided for C.

A. workers and Civilian Conservation Corps mem- bers to persons who receive “ curity payments as employes of the United States.” States May Pay Loss. | This was interpreted by McCauley as meaning that persons employed on State or municipal projects financed | by Government loans, or projects let ' by private contract, would not be eligible, but would come under State workmen's compensation laws, McCauley said he would be unable to estimate the number of injuries | or deaths which would come before the commission until information was available on the number of persons, the number of man hours and the type of work. Under the law, compensation is lim- ited to $3,500 in case of death. and $25 a month for disabilities under a schedule providing seven weeks' com- | pensation for loss of a fourth finger.
