LUMBER, STEEL
AND OIL TO PUT
400.000 IN JOBS
WASHING GTON, Se) Sept. 7 Followims the President’s approval of codes
for the lumber, steel ,and oil industries, which together will provide
mew jobs for 405,000 workers laid
off by those major groups, the first
hearing orpened on the mammoth retati trade, with 400 representatives
Of all branches present except the
food and grocery distribution division.
oa his is the first public hearing
On trade, as distinguished from in@Gdustry, that has ever been held in
the United States,’’ said Deputy Administrator Whiteside in outlining
procedure. ‘‘The decision 'to. be reached will affect not only ‘the 429,121
storekKeepers whose investment, is
“Yess than $500 and whose stores are
the centers of community life in
thousands of villages, but those greaidepartment. stores which--are cities
within themselves. All told, 1,489,720 retail concerns and more than
5,006,000 wage earners are affected.
Self-zZovernment for trades, dealing
directly with every consumer in the
country, isour most important soeial problems.’’
. Hie emphasized the fact that the
President personally reviews every
ecode and reports on it, and said:
*““Efis decisions are based upon the
broadest understanding of the’ factual evidence. This direct supervision by the President gives wage
earners complete confidence in the
justice and fundamental soundness
of the provisions as an assured basis
for continuance of their enrployment
at a living wage. Upon that confiGence, which has permeated the entire banking, industrial, and mezcamtile structure of the country, the
suceess of this most
economic legislation ever conceived,
the. NRA, is absolutely guaranteed.”
The code as submitted Provides a

more than $30 per week. registered

varying from $11 in villages to $14

Et is conservatively estimated that
250,000 additional workers can be
reem ployed in the retail trades on
the basis of their code as submitted;
a 44-hour week would be required to
Freabsorb the approximate 1090 to 12
per cent of retail employees laid off

PUBLIC HEALTH
STANDARDS IN
STATE RAISED
By MELVIN LORD
SACRAMENTO, Sept. 7——CUP)—
Improvement -of public health conditions is one of California’s most important governmental problems, in
the opinion of state officials.
This function, incidentally, will be
ef increasing importance in the hext
few years, it is believed.
ERecogznition of the policy, state records reveal, has led to the employment of a total of 238 city and county thealth officers in the state, of
whicch three are located im Nevada
county.
DECREASING MORTALITY
This total includes only. the heads
public health departments, and
not take into consideration the
Ihunmdreds of other doctors, nurses
and other persons employed by county and municipal health agencies:
The steady increase in public
health work in recent years is credited by officials with being iargely
responsible for better control of contazgious diseases, more regular school
attendance and a decreasing death
rate.
“There are indications that pub“hie health problems will be more
azeute in the immediate future than

MOST SCHOOLS —
DENIED PLEA TO
INCREASE TAX
By MELVIN” IN LORD
SACRAMENTO, Sept. 7—-(UP)—#i
Strict interpretation of the economy i
provisions of the Riley-Stewart tax}
plan today led the state board of .
equalization to deny all but 17 of;
800 requests of school districts to.
exceed the 5 per Cent per year bud-!
get increase limitation.
Requests for expenditures over the
$4,000,000, according to Fred
Stewart, board member. Of this
amount only $1,588,886 was allowed .
by the board, including $1,352,481,43 to Los Angeles county for reconstruction and repair of schools damaged by the earthquake.
Aside from the earthquake reconstruction funds, virtually the only
emergency claims validated were to
replace schools destroyed by fire, or
to carry through building contracts!
entered into before the Riley-Stewart
plan was adopted last June.
“The board has adhered to the
most_rigid interpreation of ‘emergen=
cies’ in acting upon’ requests for authority to exceed the 5 per cent budget limitation, believing that every
tax-spending body owes it to the
people at this period to practice the
strictest economy in government affdirs,”’ State Controller Ray L. Riley .
said.
“We have sought to keep faith
with the people of California, who,
wwhen they voted for the Riley-Stewart plan, were equally desirous of
tax equalization and drastic retrenchment in both local and state expenditures. The board, on the other hand,
has done its utmost to guard against
crippling any school district.’’
Favorable action was taken on th
following applications:
Alameda county, Albany -high
school, requested, $42,409.44, allowEl Dorado county,
Willow elementary, requested, and
allowed, $948.97; Humboldt county,

Porter, director of the state department of public health said.
FAULTY HOUSING
“It. is conceded generally that the
results of the economic depression
have not, as yet, exerted. a profound,
influence upon public health conditions.
“During the new few years health
departments generally will undoubtedly. be burdened-—with probl@ms
that will arise in the wake of the
period of unemployment, under-nut‘ition, exposure and faulty housing
conditions that have prevailed to a
certain extent since 1929.
“Because of this the work of the
public health officers will be of particular importance.”
