MURDER TRIAL
RELIEF WORK
COOPERATION
HIGHLY PRAISED
Sfflcienoy and cooperation by the
Marlon and Salem relief commit
tee in presenting projects for con
sideration were highly compliment
ed Monday noon by Burton Palmer.
Portland, chief engineer for the
state &ERA, who spoke before the
chamber of commerce in place of
Ivan White, of Salem, who was
called to Washington, D. O. The
projects offered were ones which
required little material and most
of the cost going to labor.
While Oregon stood 14th In the
United States on the percentage of
direct federal relief funds, it stood
first In the northern group of states,
those above It being all in the
south. Direct relief funds provided
by the government were 865 per
cent with 60.6 per cent the average
for the nation. Connecticut was at
the bottom of the list with 11.6 per
cent.
Why the CWA was discontinued
and the SERA launched in its place
was related by Palmer. It became
necessary to make a dollar do dou
ble duty, going lor actual relief
and making the subject work for it.
When the CWA went into U'ect
there were 117,000 registered un
employed with Oregon's quota, upon
which funds were based, set at 28,
000. It became necessary to give
work only for cases of actual ne
cessity and even then to resort to
lottery to allot the work. Under
the system at Its best Injustices
arose, palmer said. To take care
of the situation, with the govern
ment spending $2,000,000 in Janu
ary, a peak month, it would have
been necessary to increase this to
$8,000,000 if all were given work, a
program tliat would have cost the
government over two billions A
month throughout the nation.
Administrative costs have been
cut to the limit, palmer said, with
Oregon standing fifth from the
hntrnm on h list in this connec
tion.
Continuation of
Labor Unrest
rrom Page One
reached a crucial stage today with
violence followed by wholesale ar
rests reported in at least three in
dustrial centers.
Center of the labor difficulties was
at Minneapolis where striking truck
drivers engaged in a hand to hand
battle with police for control of the
city's markets. More than 25 partic
ipants were injured before the street
fighting subsided.
Eleven striking longshoremen at
New Orleans were arrested on
charges of carrying concealed wea
pons as police began a systematic
search for weapons among the pl-
cxeting oock w or iters.
Approximately 6O0 striking Ions
shoremen employed by the Clyde
Mallory line in New York returned
to work today.
At San Francisco, shipping was
paralyzed by refusal of ship owners
and 15,000 striking dockworkers to
concede ground in the matter of un
ion recognition.
Street sales of newspapers in
Cleveland was tied up by the strike
of newsboys demanduig an increase
in the pennies received for papers
sold. Flying squads of the youthful
strikers sped through the downtown
area confiscating all papers on the
news stands.
Overshadowing active strike diffi
culties was the threat of a tleup in
the vast steel industry over the mat
ter of union recognition. The Am
algamated Association of Iron, Steel
and Tin Workers at Pittsburgh sent
their demands to employers country-wide,
with the acceptance dead
line set at June 10.
San Francisco, May 21 (IP) Two
determined gro-jps the 15,000 Pa
cific coast longshoremen and their
ship-owning employers kept coast
shipping in almost complete paraly
sis today by their refusals to con
cede ground on recognition of the
International Longshoremen's as
sociation.
Federal mediators, led by Assist
ant secretary of Labor Edward F
McGrady, admitted prorjcts of an
early settlement are poor, but
planned further conferences with
the disputants today.
The threat of a month's shut
down on all coast shipping activity
was heard after shipowners met
here. The employers refused to
confirm the report but they said
an "important announcement'' can
be expected soon. Workers count
ered with discussions of a general
strike, affecting every orptani7rd
craft associated with the shipping
industry.
Either move would affect all ships
except those holding mail contracts
It would mean stagnation of many
industries. It would produce food
shortages in communities dependent
on water transportation. And it
would cau.se a severe setback to
President Roosevelt's recovery
movement.
While efforts to effect arbitra
tion of the bitter dispute were in
progress, the waterfronts in the
principal ports remained quiet. No
moves were made in Portland or
Seattle to load or unload cargoes
Some shi)s were cleared from Sun
rancisro and Los Angeles by
strike breakeis.
