By the Associated Press. President Roosevelt, a cotton grower in his own right, last night urged cot- ton producers to join the acreage re- duction program promptly next week in the interest of reducing supply and improving long-range prices for the staple. His message, in which he described as “absurdly low” prices he has re- ceived for cotton grown on his land near Warm Springs, Ga., was issued in the form of a letter to Secretary Wallace, who made it public in an ad- dress in which he reported that the campaign has met with a hearty re- sponse from farmers. closed whether the President has yet signed a reduction pledge for his land. ~I want you to make it very clear that I aitach the greatest possible im- portance to the cotton adjustment cam- paign,” the message of the President said. the agricuitural depression. Question of Readiness. “I know that for the past two weeks the representatives of the farm adjust- ment administration have been pre- senting to the 2,000,000 producers of cotton the hard facts of supply and demand, but the real question is, are the cotton growers ready to recognize these facts and seize their opportunity? “I myself am one of those who, as a planter of cotton, has suffered from the absurdly low prices of the last few vears. What I am concerned about, and what every other cotton grower ought to think about, is the price of cotton next ye: otton acreage is not reduced. * * Farm administrators officially de- scribed their first major program to adjust American farm production downward an “unqualified success” in announcing that cotton growers had signed contracts offering to plow up 5,566,169 acres of their growing crop. Secretary Wallace at the same time extended the period for growers to sign contracts, which was to have ended last night, to midnight Wednesday and said later extensions would be made if necessary so that every cotton grower would be given a chance to enter the program. They desire to cut the po- tential crop by at least 3,000.000 bales and Wallace and George N. Peek, chief administrator of the farm act, indi- cated confidence that this goal would be achieved. 40,798,000 Acreage Report. Earlier yesterday the Crop Reporting Board, in its first cotton estimate this year, reported the acreage as of July 1 ‘was 40,798,000 acres, an increase of 11.6 per cent over last year. The board will make its first pro- duction estimate in August. but on the basis of the long-time average yield in the cotton belt of one-third of a bale to the acre this would indicate a po- tential crop of about 13,500,000 bales. By cutting production 3,000,000 bales or more. Wallace hoped this year's erop might be brought to about. 10.- 000,000 bales. There is a carryover from last year of about 12,500,000 bales of American cotton. Employment of the acreage reduction program means that a processing tax of about 4 cents a pound will go into At the same effect around August 1. time the floor stocks of cotton proces- sors and_wholesalers will be subjected to tax. Retailers will have 30 days in which to dispose of their stocks ou hand before they are taxed. Wallace said the Bureau of Internal Revenue was attempting to work out conversion factors to be used in de- termining the amount of tax to be ap- plied to cotton goods on the floor. Also when the processing tax be- comes effective a compensatory import tax of an equal amount will become effective. The movement of raw coi- ton to American sources has long been insignificant, however, as more than one-half of this country’s production ordinarily is expected. CLEANING AND DYEING AGREEMENT TAKEN UP Gathering of 30 Representatives at Silver Spring Will Continue for Week or 10 Days. Thirty representatives of the clean- ing and dyeing industry throughout the country opened & meeting yesterday in Silver Spring, at which a code will be drawn up to present to the Indus- trial Control Board for regulation of their industry. - The meeting voted to include within the fair practices section all small in-; dividual cleaners and dyers, as it was found they could not be included in the minimum wage or limited hours section, since small plants include both labor and proprietor. The gathering will continue for a mweek or 10 days, it was said, and the roposed code will be submitted to Gen. fiugh S. Johnson, industrial control head, within the next two weeks.

STORN TRODPERS MADE ADVSER Prussian Premier Hails State Council Next to Cabinet in Importance. By the Associated Press. BERLIN, July 8—A new constitu- tion for,the Prussian State Council, in which storm troop members were offi- | cially recognized as among the chief advisers of the state premier, was pro- mulgated today by Capt. Wilhelm Goer- ing, right-hand man of Chancellor Hitler in the National cabinet. Capt. Goering, who also is premier of Prussia, hailed the new state coun- cil as “the most important organ of government next to the state cabinet.” Under the new constitution, this council, which formerly had functioned almost tantamount to a senate. or up- per house, will hereafter merely listen to the prencuncements of Capt. Goer-! ing, make observations concerning them | and then adjourn. | Article 10 of the constitution de-! clares that “the state council does not vote,” that it merely “advises the| state ministry anent the conduct of the state’s affairs.” | Must Serve Without Pay. Membership is composed of the| Prussian cabinet and 50 persons ap- pointed by the premier, among them chiefs and subchiefs of the brown- shirted .Nazi -storm troops and black- | shirted shock troops. Representatives of the churches, industry, business, sci- ence and labor also will be included. The constitution provides that the members must serve without pay and that while in the past the state coun- cil met publicly, now meetings will be | secret. ] With the suppression for three months today of the newspaper Taeg- liche Rundschau, the struggle for Prot- estant’ ¢hurch ‘control entered a new and bitter stage. ‘The newspaper had cited an article of a church pronouncement drawn up in 1537 at Schmalkalden, in which Mar- tin Luther participated, declaring that the churches alone possess the right of choosing pastors and other spiritual officers and that “no earthly power can take this from them.” Criticism Held Unjust. This was regarded as unjustified criticism of the removal of church- men by State church commissioners. ! The Taegliche Rundschau also had backed Rev. Friedrich von Bodel- schwingh, recently elected by non-Nazi church groups as evangelical Reichs- bishop. It also had reported the ar- rests of pastors who delivered sermons criticizing appointment of the state jchurch commissioner. Meanwhile, Ludwig Mueller, Nazi church leader, issued an appeal to the United Prussian Church not to disturb the work of unification now in progress | by “unobjective talk and action.” August Jaeger, Prussian church com- missioner, issued an order to police chiefs and provincial and district gov- ernors declaring that the government's action regarding churches, “while in nowise interfering with religious life” was essential to safeguard the national unity created by the chancellor. ! “Since the state in its own interests, as well as the interests of the people | and the church cannot tolerate opposi- | tion of this kind,” said his decree, “but | |on the contrary must regard attempts al such opposition as treason to the people and the state, I request you to | see to it very sharply that my orders and ‘those of my deputies are not sabotaged.” He added such attempts “would con- stitute revolt against the state authori- ties which must be suppressed im- mediately.” ROOSEVELT WOULD PROTECT U. S. FORESTS Wants Code of Lumber Industry to Provide Against “Destructive Exploitation.” By the Associated Press. President Roosevelt wants the pro- spective code of practices being framed by the lumber industry under the in- dustrial recovery act to include meas- ures “for the prevention of destructive exploitation of forest lands and the large-scale adoption of the sustained yield policy in lumbering operations.” ‘The Chief Executive’s position was disclosed last night by Secretary Wal- | lace, who made public a letter he ad- dressed to Dr. Wilson Compton, sec- retary of the National Lumber Manu- facturers’ Association. “The President asks me to tell you that he trusts any code relating to the cutting of timber will contain some definite provision for the control of destructive exploitation,” the letter said, adding: “The justification for this position lies in the declared policy of the in- dustrial recovery act to conserve na- tural resources. It lies also in the fact that sound and lasting industrial re- covery in the forest industries can be brought about only by practices that will insure the perpetuation of the basic forest resources and hence be in the highest interest of both the industries themselves and the general public.” Only today a delegation of lumber men conferred for several hours with Dudley Cates, an assistant national in- dustrial administrator, regarding de- tails of the code they hope to have ready for presentation next week. After the meeting Compton said the discussion with Cates gave the lumber men some guidance from the recovery administration for the final steps in completing their code. The talk, how- ever, he said, was entirely informal and did not involve presentation of a ten- tative draft. He expressed confidence the code would be presented within a week. LUMBERMEN CONFER ON RECOVERY CODE Advance Guard of Committee Meets With Cates to Smooth Out Preliminary Details. By the Associated Press. An advance guard of the lumber in- dustry's Emergency National Commit- tee, which has been framing a code for the lumbermen, conferred yesterday with Dudley Cates, assistant national emergency administrator, to smooth out details preliminary to formal presen- tation of the agreement. Indications yesterday were that the lumber code on wages and hours would be ready for submission late next week.

By the Associated Press. Twenty bituminous coal men, repre- senting operators and miners, yesterday began drafting a code they hoped to submit next week to Hugh S. Johnson, the industrial administrator, in an effort to fit their industry into the re- covery program. ‘The committee consisted of 10 opera- tors, representing union fields for the mest part. and 10 United Mine Workers of America officials. Large Southern interests, long op- posed to unionization of their fields, were understood to have almost com- pleted a second code. Non-union operators from the North- ern Appalachian fields of Western Pennsylvania, Ohio, Northern West Virginia and Maryland talked of sub- mitting a third code. A code for that region has been prepared by Central Coal Ascociates, Incorporated, & new or- ganization backed by the Taplin inter- ests of Cleveland and several operators’ associations in the region. Ideas to Be Combined. Indiana operators already have sent Johnson their code. Some of the coal men here for conferences suggested that several other proposed —agreements might filter into the recovery adminis- tration before a hearing could be set. The operators and labor leaders went to work yesterday with the understand- ing that eventually the results of all their individual or group efforts were to be combined into a single code. Johnson told them it might be more feasible for sectional groups which were at odds over details to work out sepa- rate plans representing their ideas of | what would be best for capital and | labor. Before the code was completed, though, he said, it was to stand for the | entire industry, with reasonable differ- entials in wages and working conditions as living costs varied. Lewis Seeks Higher Wages. John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, also has outlined the broad form of the union's ideas concerning wages. He said yesterday that whatever wages went into the code should be based on present union con- tract wages, with differentials fixed in the light of differences in living costs and methods of mining. Johnson told the operators that the Federal Government could not abrogate contracts already made between miners and operators. that stand, was to work for larger in- creases in those districts where the con- tract scale is lowest in an attempt to bring them to the higher scales, to better wages all around if possible, and to insist on the Northern scale being put into effect in the South with justi- fled modifications for lower living costs. Lewis is 8 member of the Industrial Recovery Board's Labor Advisory Group. Union operators at the committee meeting today said there was a general willingness among the producers to get together with labor on the wage question. Northern Appalachian operators were reported to be willing to discuss the scale proposed by Lewis, though not necessarily subscribing themselves as union supporters. ‘The general feeling among the North- ern and Midwestern operators yester- day was that the major battle would come when North met South on the wage question. gl e SUGAR CODE DRAFT NEARS COMPLETION Expects to Program Within Few Days. Subcommittee Com- plete By the Associated Press. The code for the reorganized do- mestic and insular sugar industry neared completion yesterday by a Sugar Conference Subcommittee. John Lee Coulter, a Tariff Commis- sion member, who is directing the con- ference, said about two days’ more work would be required to complete the draft. It includes a tentative accord on quotas of the domestic consumption total to be allotted among the various con- tributing areas. The United States has been calcu- lated to consume an annual sugar sup- ply of 6,200,000 tons. This total will be divided as equitably as possible, it was said, to provide quotas for pro- ducers of domestic beet and cane sugar, the Philippine Islands, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands and Cuba. We Can Use Man of Bond Salesman Type —but he must be of ethical standing, high class in char- acter and of pleasing person- ality—not of the “high pres- sure” kind.

This is the first part of the $3,300,- 000,000 program the administration hopes to get under way. Most of the projects may be undertaken as soon s the money is allocated because the plans have been made for them months ahead. ‘The subcommittee, headed by Assist- ant Secretary Tugwell of the Agricul- ture Department, is checking recom- mendations of the various departments for this program in an effort to weed out all but essential projects. Disbursement of funds for State and local construction work must await President Roosevelt’s creation of local boards to sypervise and recommend ex- penditures. Meanwhile “he War Department dig- ging into funds it already had available from regular appropriations for that purpose, allotted $11,000,000 for river and harb&s work previously authorized. At the same time labor officials from 26 States were meeting with representa- tives of the Federal Employment Serv- ice to map out a national employment system. Special attention was given to setting up agencies to supply labor for the pub- lic works program. Plants Continue Fast Pace. The gigantic machinery of the Na- tion's privately owned industrial plants continued during the last week to turn out consumer’s goods at a rapid rate, while the retail trade asserted that its business was failing to keep in tune with production, the Commerce Depart- ment reported yesterday. The administration fears some manu- facturers are loading their stock rooms at the expense of labor employed at long hours before the industrial codes go into effect. The administration seeks a step-up in production, provid- ing it is not “speculative,” to be met by the employment of additional labor, as will be required under the trade agreements. By the Associated Press | | The ‘“great economic expansion of the Caribbean since 1900" last night was credited in a large measure to the entrance of foreign capital and enter- prise by Dr. Clarence F. Jones of Clark | University, Worcester, Mass.,, at lhe‘ | George Washington University Seminar Conference on Hispanic American Af- ! fairs. “To it also is due the higher stand- ard of life,” he said. “This important energy has benefited some of the peo- ple greatly and all of the people to a certain extent. Not a single political unit but has felt the advantages of | greatly improved water and land trans- portation facilities, the benefits of the eradication of yellow fever, the lessened toll of maleria, hookworm and other diseases, and the greater security of property and life.” “Contrary to popular opinion,” he added, “our investments are not pri- marily in regions where United States political activities have been most prominent.” Dr. Jones took issue with the popular impression he said is held in the United States as well as by the man in the streets of the Caribbean countries that | public loans are forced upon these gov- ernments by lender nations at extor- tionate rates. He said. also, critics of those countries should consider the | conditions under which the loans were | made. He mentioned what he termed lack of governmental strength in poor- ly functioning republican forms of gov- | | ernment and said the records should | be compared with those of other areas. “Looked at in this light,” he said, he records are not so bad. Since 1908 there has been marked improvement.” | DE HAVILLAND WINS | Triumphs in King's Cup Air Bace | Around England. | LONDON, July 8 (#).—Capt.

By the Associated Press. ‘WELLESLEY, Mass., July 8.—An ap- peal for ratification of the child labor amendment and continuance of efforts for State minimum wage laws was made tonight by Secretary of Labor Frances Perkins in an address at the Wellesley College Institute for Social Progress. Speaking on objectives of the national industrial recoverv act. Miss Perkins commended the cotton textile industry for its co-operation in the drafting of the code under which it will operate 2;1;1&5 the economic emergency, but have been stj‘\'ing to improve working conditions & find real satisfaction in the aboli- tion of child labor under the cotton textile code. Similar provisions can be expected in codes governing other in- dustries. But we must bear in mind that such an action covers only the emergency period, which, under the law, does not extend beyond two years, or even less, should President Roose “You and all of us who gency has ended. “Consequently, the move for ratifica- tion of the child labor amendment must g0 on. It has been my experience that when industry improves, employment of children increases. We should guard against any possible return of such a condition and we can best do that by passing the Federal amendment. | “From one point of view—and it is the humanitarian viewpoint—there will be no need for child labor regulations in the years to come when the depres- sion is a thing of the past. This is the time to make permanent, through the amendment, a beneficial change in the standards so as to keep boys and girls out of industry and give them th chance in life to which they are en- titled. “We must likewise continue the drive for minimum State wage laws. Such scales are being set up in the industrial | codes, but as in the case of child labor, | they cover only the emergency period.” | Miss Perkins touched briefly upon the public works program of the ad- | ministration, and after listing some of the projects which would be viewed | with favor, said housing and slum clearing projects would receive serious consideration by the Board of Public | Works. | “You and I know that slum condi- tions in some of our big cities are dis- graceful.” she commented.
