RELIEF FIGHT IS EXPECTED
ON NEW CONGRESS
Washington, Dec. 26.—Christmas
celebrations over, the capital made
ready today for a bitter struggle in
the coming congress over next year’s
relief spending.
The limited amount of relief funds
now on hand pushed the issue for-
ward as one of the first to be tackled
at the session opening Jan. 5.
There were mounting signs that
President Roosevelt's suggestion for
a $500,000,000 appropriation to last
until June 30 would draw sharp at-
tacks both from advocates of mor*
liberal spending and legislators who
favor a tightened federal purse.
Senator King, democrat, Utah, told
reporters he considered si|ch-a sum
“unnecessary.”
“If overhead is reduced and proper
economy applied, $260,000,000 to
$300,000,000 should be enough,” King
said.
He added that he considered $300,-
000,000 to $500,000,000 would not b*
sufficient for the rest of thia fiscal
year and that a much larg*r sum
probably would be necessary for next
year also.
While arriving congressional lead-
ers agreed the reilef controversy
would have first call when the ses-
sion actually opens, the problems of
new neutrality legislation to replac*

tion also_____ “
.Sporting a new Christmas tie, Pres-
ident Roosevelt devoted several hours
in his offic* to routine government
duties,. After a cold turkey lunch h*

ecutive mansion.
His secretaries said if he had be-
gun preparation of his message on
the state of the Union, scheduled *
few days after congress opens, they
were unaware of it.

GREEN WOULD SET $3600
AS LEAST INCOME
Washington, Dec. ‘ 27. — William
Green, president of the American
Federation of Labor, said Saturday
night every family should have an
Income of at least $3(MM).
Thlx, recalled that John L. Lewis,
his arch-enemy in organized labor,
said last l-abor Day that the mini-
mum wage for unskilled labor should
be $2500 a year.
“Before industry can reach capa-
city production, every one who wish**
ttf work must have employment and
every family must have an incom*
of at Iroritt $3600,” Green said in S
statement reviewing labor events of
1936.
“Ntr one can mistake or misint*?-
prejk the decision of the people of th*
United States In favor of social se-
curity legislation, the advancement of
htrman welfare and the wider distrib-
ution of the national income,” he said.
“The year 1937, therefore, will re-
cord in a very large measure th*
realization of the purpose of labor to
secure higher wages, higher stand-
ards of living, shorter hours a* *
remedy for unemployment, an accel-
erated drive for abolition of child la-
bor and enactment of social justic*
legislation both by congress and by
state legislatures."
