e g THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, THURSDAY, JUNE 22, 1933 ROSE OUTLINES INDUSTRY PLAN Hails National Recovery Act as Measure Long Sought by Business (Centinued 1rom Page Ome) stood as a policeman armed with the anti st laws as a club and saying St Not,” it now comes to try and business and tells them “You Shall,” and it is armed with the authority to en- force the decree. He said that the act embodies a plan advocated for years by the National Chamber, and makes it possible for the employment of la- bor at fair wages and for reason- able hours, and for industry and business to be conducted on a profitable plane by the elimination of cut-throat competition and gweat-shop methods. Get Busy Now In part Mr. Rose said: “President Rooscvelt has sent to Congress and Congress has passed a bill which, in effect says to business, ‘you have asked for the right to regulate yourself, spread employment, stab- {lize wages, restore purchasing pow- er, all in your own way. Get busy and do or the Government will do'it for you' The act bristles Wwith the admonition to industry: | ‘Get Busy Now! For an experimental period of two years, the act sets aside the portion of the anti-trust laws which forbids agreements among compet- itors, and contemplates voluntary agreements by trade groups, gov- ernning wages, working hours, con- trol of production, prices, unzm- ployment and pansion reserve and fiumerous other competitive prob- lems, to be enforced through the however, before the initiative in| the situation, just by the inherent | R E nature of the plan, will be trans-| ferred from their shoulders P those of the millions of business TA KE SLUMP PLANS READY ¥ 1) Y are preparing to get under way.” G Fu R SUNDAY Outlines Five Steps —— proprietors, the several thousand lines of industrial production and distribution, and the thousand-odd | Mr. Rose outlined five steps as/[ast Minute Selling Wave Committee Announces Ar- | prgbably necessary to putting the | g e T e | Sends Stocks Down rangements for Annual | 1.

Praises Gen. Johnson “Brig. Gen. Hugh 8. Johnson has been appoinfed the permanent administrator of the industry con- trol provisions. Washington opinion seems united on the proposition that a better, fairer, more ener- getic, more experienced man could not have been named,” he declar- ed. “From his days of perfecting the selective draft uring the World War and servicc on the War In- dustries Board, Johnson has been| known as a man who means busi- ness and is contemptuous of red tape. Just what the system means was aptly phrased by Mr. Rose as fol- lows: “We are about to put into| operation a plan whose essence is that business men, firms, corpora- tions, trade associations, pressed to do voluntarily, or will be made to do if they do not volunteer, just what they have been prevented from doing in the past under the threat of peniten- tiary sentence. That is, they will be expected to bring order out of industrial chaos, and to put an end to wage cutting, ruthless price cutting, exploitation of labor and the like. Of course, it is not going to be easy. Questions of procedure, regulations, and methods remain to be worked; intricate competitive re- lationships between industry re- main to be adjusted. But the great principle of self-regulation has been driven home.” Preparing for Weeks “For weeks President Harriman, of the National Chamber, and his closest advisers, as well as those in the Administration with whom they have been working, have been un- believably busy men bringing Llus; great accomplishment to fruition.!
