World Textile Conference,Harold B Butler,Henry A Wallace,John J Winant,1937

Title: Cabinet members address World Textile Conference in effort to prevent hopeless deadlock. Washington, D.C., April 12. In effort to save the World Textile Conference from a hopeless deadlock on the question of a universal 40-hour week, President Roosevelt sent members of his cabinet to address the conference one after another today. If the delegates do not agree on a universal 40-hour week, the United States with its short working week, will be put at a competitive disadvantage with longer hour countries. In addressing the meeting the cabinet declared that improvement of working standards will expand world trade by removing one of the causes of artificial barriers to commerce. In the photograph, left to right: Harold B. Butler, Secretary of Conference; Secretary of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace; Secretary of State Gordell Hull; and John J. Winant, Chairman of the Conference. Edward N. McGrady, Assistant Secretary of Labor also addressed the meeting, 4/12/1937
