A—6 = SECURITY DELAY HI BY TREADWAY Ways and Means Group| Blamed for Failure to Strengthen Act. Blame for failure to strengthen the social security act at the present ses-| sion of Congress is ) id on the Ways and Means Committee by Representa- tive Treadway, Republican. of Mas- sachusetts, ranking minority mem- ber. He discloses that the movement for modification of the social security act is being sponsored by Republicans. The “verbal spanking” of the Social 8ecurity Board by a secret session of Democratic members of the House committee for having co-operated in appointment of an investigating com- mission to study certain proposed changes in the act, prompted Repre- sentative Treadway to censure these Democratic members for the Republican minority. that “thev consistently ignore the | rights of the Republican minority to | be gresent at meetings of the com- “ignoring” | He charges mittee at which matters of policy are determined.” He complains that “our only function seems to be to meet with the full committee when the action of the Democratic majority, as de- termined in secret caucus, is to be formally ratified.” Regarding the study of changes in the social security act, Treadway ac- cuses the House committee of being “content to waii for orders to proceed from the White House.” He argues that the House committee ‘could easily have begun a study of proposed amendments to the social security act the first day of Congress, and con- tinued almost without interruption, as little important work has been done since the session opened. “The Social Security Board came before the com- mittee last year,” he said, “with a long st of proposed amendments, but it was too late in the session for any action. They could have been resub- mitted at the beginning of the present session. The failure of the board to come forward with recommendations does not relieve the Ways and Means Committee from the responsibility of asking for such recommendations.” e Imported Alfalfa Valuable. A creeping alfalfa, discovered by an American plant explorer on a trip to Asia three years ago, promises to be a valuable grazing and soil-holding plant for the semi-arid regions of the west. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON D. C, SATURDAY, MAY 15, 1937, ANTI-C. I. 0. DRIVE PLANNED BY A. F. L. Counter-Offensive to Enroll South- ern Textile Labor Is Announced. By he Associated Press. CHARLOTTE, N. C, May 15— Plans for a counter offensive by the American Federation of Labor against the organizing efforts in the southern textile industry of John L. Lewis’ Commitee for Industrial Organization were disclosed here yesterday. George L. Googe, Southern repre- sentative of the A. F. of L., said his | organization, which chartered the | United Textile Workers' of America, would organize new unions, having no connection with the U. T. W., through- out the Southern textile area. At the same time the labor leader | | charged that “leaders drawn for monetary considerations into the C. 1. O. are but fronts for the real lead- | ers” who, he asserted, “are using com- | munistic strategy and are being aided | and abetted by all elements in com- | munistic organizations in America.” Googe declared that the former U. T. W. officials and Executive Board | “in signing a contract with the C. 1. O. | * * * surrendered all rights and inter- ests granted them by the A. F. of L. | WOODWARD & LOTHROP 10™11™F AND G STREETS PHONE DIstricr 5300 Camp Groundwork Hiking, swimming, woodcraft—all belong to camp life, but before hundreds of youngsters can enjoy them, they will want to come to Woodward & Lothrop for clothes in which to play and sleep for those happy vacation days.
