President of A.F. of L. Advises
Dividing Available Work
Among Laborers.,
WASHINGTON, May 28.-(1P)-
President William Green of the
American Federation of Labor sees
indications of a hard winter ahead.
He believes its effects could be min- I
imized by adoption of a four-point
remedial program.
Asserting that a less than nor-
mal increase in spring employ-
ment this year forecasts a worse
winter than last, unless immediate
steps are taken, he proposed Wed-
nesday night that employers guar-
antee continued work to as many
men as possible.
"A guarantee of employment to'
even a portion of the country's
work forces would help business
revival enormously and bring relief
from anxiety to thousands of work-
ers' families," Green said.
Compared with spring improve-
ment in properous years, he said,
"this year's employment gains have
been small indeed." He estimated
that of 6,300,000 out of jobs in Jan-
uary less than 1,500,000 had found
work.

The death resulted when Andrew

LONGVIEW, Tex., May 28.-( P)-
Texas has had 36 years of oil field
experiences, but the east Texas,
strike has. taken its place as unique'
among them all.
East Texas is oil poor.
The Spindletop in 1901 and
other rich discoveries came with no
such overproduction as now exists
to weigh down the market. The
new strike was made in the midst
of precarious days for the oil in-
dustry, with prices at rock bottom.
Naturally there was a great in-
flux of unemployed, bringing the
permanent residents' serious prob-
lems of caring for down-and-outers.
After six months of drilling the
production area had not been defi-
nitely determined, and the Texas
railroad commission was forced to
do considerable guessing in an
effort to fix the potential.
In the days of the Spindletop ac-
tivity near Beaumont in 1901, the
Ranger find in west Texas in 1917
and Burkburnett and Desdemona in
1919 and 1920, oil was worth much
more, there was no necessity for
proration and its attendant slack-
ening of activities.I

EDWARDOS TO LEAD
MEMOHRILPRD
Newkirk to Give Principal Talk
at Court House to All
Military Units.
Major Basil D. Edwards, com-
manding officer of the University
R.O.T.C. will act as grand marshall
of the Decoration Day parade.
The parade will form at 10 o'clock
Saturday morning at the Engineer-
ing Arch. Major Edwards and a
staff consisting of Captains Arthur
B. Custis and Robert H. Lord, Lieu-
tenant Richard H. Coursey, Russel
J. Darling, '31, and Oscar T. Perkin-
son, '31E, and a representative of
the American Legion and Veterans
of Foreign Wars, will head the pro-
cession on horseback.
Directly behind Major Edwards
will march the first division, com-
manded by Captain C. A. Powell.
This group will be composed of the
R.O.T.C. arid band, and-the Nation-
al Guard. The second division led
by Leo Burns, commander of the
Ann Arbor American Legion, and
general chairman, will follow the
first. It will consist of the G.A.R.,
Spanish-American war veterans,
Veterans of Foreign Wars, Ameri-
can Legion, and Ladies Auxiliaries,
and the high school band.
The parade is to march to the
court house where Mayor H. Wirt,
Newkirk will be the p:incipal speak-
er.
Two Men Fined
Finding them guilty of disorderly
conduct, Judge Bert E. Fry fined
Lela McClinton and Steve Arnole,
both of 308 Detroit avenue, $15 andi
costs apiece.

As a further remedy he reiter-
ated a request that "some thought-
less employers" discontinue "snip-
ing at wage standards." A pay-
cutting policy, he contended, en-
genders a fear for the future that
leads men to buy mly necessities.
All available work, he said,
should be divided pro rata among
employes since each man has a
"moral claim" to at. least a share.
He also suggested that as the relief
question "next winter bids fair to
be worse than last," immediate
plans should be made by the proper
agencies.
"Unless industry, labor and our
governments face this problem
now," Green said, "next winter's,
suffering may be worse than last."
Youth Gives up Navy
Caeer to Go to Sea
KANSAS CITY, Kan., May 2.-
( P)-Edward F. Railsback, 23, is
quitting the Navy so he will have
a chance to go to sea.
A longing for the life of a sailor
sent the young man to the navall
academy at Annapolis where he
found he would graduate into a
land job.
Naval reduction, he wrote his
father here, makes it possible for
some 35 members of this year's
graduating class to resign. Rails-
back said he would resign and ac-
cept a sea going job with a com-
mercial shipping company.
