LLINDIS CONSIDERS PLIGHT OF VORKER Head Tells of Suliering Among Jobless Chlcago, Oct. 15 (UP)—Illinois’ ~business, social and governmental “Yorces will be organized definitely ‘joday to plan immediate reliet for Ahe unemployment situation. e A state commission on unemploy- “nent, with an unlimited representa- Jion from all these organizations, +and probably others, will be appoint- “d by Gov. Louis L. Emmerson and ill endeavor to solve its problem vithin 60 days, it was decided Mon- «day at a preliminary conference ®alled by the governor. . “Whatever remedy is applied must come within the next 30 or 60 days,” Alfert Fisher of the lllinois Feder- Ation of Labor told the conference. ., “The worst hasn't come in my ‘opinion,” said Fisher. “I don't know ‘what is going to happen. These ‘people won't see their wives and \children starve, not even if they 'must steal.” i Little Optimism . Others of the dozen speakers who explained to Gov. Emerson cindi tions in Illinois were not as pessi- ‘nistic as was Fisher, but there were ifew notes of real optimism in any «@f the reports and it was generally ‘agreed that the situation was worse ‘{han in any vear since 1921. .. Barney Cohen, state superinten- | dent of labor, estimated there were '400,000 unemployed men in the| State. He said employment had de- | <reased 17.3 per cent this year and | that Illinois was facing its hardest | ‘Wwinter in.a decade. | .. Expressing a desire not to “paint Ahe picture darker than it is, but to | face facts as they are,” Gov. Emer- | Son, who had just returned from a | similar conference in New York, ex- | ‘plained the purpose of the meeting. ' “Unemployment has been increas- | ing steadily in many communities since April,” he said. “Some esti- | mates place the number of unem- ‘loyed in Chicago at 10 per cent of all the workers in the city. Demands for help from those who cannot se- | cure the bare necessities of life are nore than double the normal num- ber. | “Winter is approaching with its 2dded hardships for the poor, and fve may reasonably expect that the| ‘usual seasonal unemployment of cer- tain trades will be added to those already out of work. : Suffering Stressed “While I believe that the present industrial conditions are the back- fvash of depression and financial in- | security in European nations and are o a cosiderable extent due to state ®f mind on the part of the public, Revertheless the resultant lack of employment and the suffering of many thousands of people is very feal.” .

Clifford W, Barnes, vice president | of civic affairs of the Chicago Asso- | ciation of Commerce, added the sug- | gestion that the new committee bring bout registration of all unemployed. | " Two men and a woman, said to| be communists, attempted to rorcc; heir way into the meeting, but were | rrested when it became evideiit they | | yished to condemn rather than to | join in finding a remedy for a sit- | uation all admitted existed. | A special guard of detectives ac- | companied the governor and special | squads of police were detailed to| prevent a communist demonstration | that had Dbeen threatened.

Such prohibition champions as Senator Fess of Ohio, the chairman of the republican national commit- tee, and Sheppard of Texas, a demo- crat, admit no alarm over the per- sistence of thé wet and dry issue in | this year's campaign but they are frankly preparing to accept the bat- tle if the election shows any marked inroads in their constitutional fort- ress. prohibition Aroused by Appeals Aroused by the appeals of such leaders as Dwight W. Morrow, New Jersey republican senatorial nomi nee, and Governor Roosevelt of New York, potential democratic presiden- tial candidate, for repeal of the | 18th amendment, the drys concede privately it is time to look for lead- |ership, at least. | Already there is talk among soem | friends ot Senator Fess of calling | |upon him to resign his chairman- | ship of the national committee a{ler: |the forthcoming election, so he may go to the prohibition battle front. As chairman of that committee his | voice is silenced on prohibition, for he must look after the interests of | both republican wets and republi- | can drys in this campaign. He has| |declared prohibition not an issue in the campaign, With both parties di- vided nationally on the controversy. Drys Also Anxious | | The drys also afe anxiously| awaiting the attitude of Senator | Borah, of Idaho, if the prohibition controversy flares up. He has been regarded as a staunch supporter of the prohibition amendment. | "0t course, if the predictions of some,_ of the politicians, that prohi- bition is to be the issue in the 1932 presidential race, comes true, the nominees of the two parties would assume the leadership in the con- test. Meanwhile, President Hoover, who has declared against repeal of fhe 1sth amendment, is regarded un- likely to become an active cam- paigner on prohibition. Also, he is awaiting the report of his law en- forcement commission which is go- ing into this subject. Senator Brookhart, republiean, Towa, and Senator Sheppard both insist that the prohibition discussion thege days is the result of “high- ly financed propaganda” and is not representative of the thoughts of the people. Senator Sheppard points to his own renomination in Texas this year by an overwhelming ma- jority in a contest in which his op- ponent made repeal of prohibition the issue. Willing to Do Battle However, they add, they are will- ing to accept the bagle in congress, should it be forced The prohibitionists who went through the long fight for the 18th amendment speak frequently of their loss in the death of Wayne B Whesler, who was counsel for the Anti-Saloon league. Wheeler's poli- tical sagacity and influence is con- ceded by both wets and drys and his loss is bemoaned by the latter.
