THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. JUNE 9. 1935—PART ONE. " RETAILERS JOLTED BY DEATHOF NRA. Digest Made for President| Reports Price Wars Are “Spotty.” On Way to Copyright, A. P. Wirephoto. Retail trades are experiencing the | first general shocks in the price struc- | ture since abandonment of N. R. A.| codes, according to a daily digest prepared for the President at N. R. A. The digest details changes in prices, working hours, wages and fair trade practices. It s built from reports coming to N. R. A. from merchants, State day-by-day | labor | commissions, individual workers and | N. R. A. employes in the field. The report is the first step on the new road pointed out by the Presi- dent in his recommendation to Spea er Byrns and House committee chair- ich foresaw A small staff in Washington to summarize information now in pos- session of N. R. A. relating to the results of code administration. and to collect information in regard to the effects on industry, both employers and emploves. of the abandonment by the Government of code enforcement and requirements So far the price-cutting centers around the items of merchandise which were used as “loss leadel in the pre-N. R. A. days, the report says. Price Wars “Spotted.” They include cigarettes, tooth paste, fotions, soap and cosmetics. The changes in prices are taking place all over the country, but the tidal wave of lower prices is not moving uniformly. Price wars are “spotty.” (A survey by the National Associa= tion of Manufacturers at New York City elicited the almost unanimous response from 132 individuals and trade groups that N. R. A. wages, hours and standards were being main- tained. At the same time a larze number of manufacturing firms pledged that wages would not be slashed or hours lengthened for the resent.)

R. A. from small merchants who say they cannot hold out against such competition. N. R. A. officials say they fear a lowered price structure may result in wage Cuting Many such reports are on file al- ready, although most of the changes in working conditions so far have come in the form of orders to report | for longer working hours. N. R. A. officials point out the reports are not investigated, but many come from reliable sources. Child Labor Returning. ‘The following are briefs of such in- formation: The first sign of a return to child labor appeared among some Northern factories which are reported hiring girls under 16 years of age. A Southern manufacturer is re- ported cutting wages 30 per cent and increasing hours from 44 to 55 a week. Employes for one large furniture concern have been notified to report for an 11-hour day instead of the old 8-hour schedule One large amusement company has changed its working schedule to 14 hours a dav. Four hundred protests were made about this company alone. One State grocers’ association was negotiating with a union for a 48- hour week when the Supreme Court decision declared N. R. A. unconsti- tutional. Now grocers employed by members of the association are wor ing 57 hours a week. and the food- handlers, 63 hours a week Clerks for one large shipping con- scene of the most active price war. according to R.

HEN the traffic cops are off duty or busy elsewhere, very few persons pay close heed to the traffic laws That is what is happening today in the Far East Great. Britain is concerned with Europe's affairs and with what is going on in Africa where Mussolini’s smbitions menace Great Britain's domination of the Eastern Mediter- ranean Basin. France is battling on the one hand for her economic survival and on the other to keep her position as the par- amount power in Europe against Ger- many. The United States is deeply con- cerned with her economic and social problems i, e Under these circumstances. none of the powers which have guaranteed China’s integrity can possi apply the usual checks. Her military leaders, astute ob- servers, have chosen this moment to | complete the occupation of Northern China, which contains the important cities of Peiping and Tientsin. This is another violation of the various treaties which have been sizned since the end of the World War. But | | will include Arthur Hyde of Missouri, who was Secretary of Agriculture in the Hoover administration; E. A. Hayes, former national commander of the American Legion: former Rep- resentative Simmons of Nebraska and Mrs. George Simmons of Marshall, Mo., who has written severe attacks on the A. A. A from the point of view of the farmer's wife. Borah Causes Comment. There is a Republican Senator from the Rocky Mountain States. however, who is getting a good deal of attention today in this Republican gathering— | Senator William E. Borah of Idaho. Borah wzs in the limelight particularly because of his vigorous speech last week, upholding the Constitution and role of Norma Millen. widow of one of the three executed murd¥ers of a Needham policeman “I wouldn't projudge the case of Norma Millen.” he said. “And if I d\d I certainly would not say any- thing about it. I'll deal with that when her application for parole is sub- mitted to me next Tuesday.” Norma, the widow of Murton Mil- len, who with his brother Irving and _ | publican National Committee. ; |gler, who has had charge of the ar- E*dell.-gav,es. Hamilton is national com- | | denouncing New Deal moves to over- ride that instrument. The grass roots conference is expected to make strict | adherence to the Constitution its cen- tral theme. and there is a feeling that it may become a real issue in the cam- paign next year. Borah, in such a contest. may be the most forceful man to run against the President, some of the delegates are saying. There is a movement on foot among some of these Middle Westerners, too. for Representative Hamilton Fish of New York. They point out that he is a veteran of the World War. and there has been a distinct effort in some quarters to find a Republican nominee | who is also a veteran. | One of the principal addresses at the | conference will be delivered by former | Gov. Frank O. Lowden of Illinois. In fact. it may be the keynote speech, al- | though Harrison E. Spangler, Repub- lican national committeeman for Towa, is the temporary chairman and will deliver the opening speech at 10 a.m. Monday. Lowden Counts Self Out. Lowden, who was a candidate for the Republican presidential nomina- tion in 1920, and again in 1928, has | declared himself entirely out of the contest for the nomination next year. | He agreed to make the address here, it is said, after he had satisfied him- self that the ccnference was in no way to be used as a boom for former President Hoover. His topic is to be Americanism. Although he is an au- thority on farm problems, he will avoid that subject, for he has said that “no one knows what to do to aid the farmer.” | This talk of a Hoover boom per- sists._despite the efforts of many of the Republicans to stamp it out. It may be due to the fact that some of | the right-hand men in his adminis- | tration are on the spot, including Walter Newton of Minneapolis, who | | was secretary to the President: Arch | Coleman. who was First Assistant Post- master General, and Robert Lucas, former executive director of the Re- Span | rangements for the Midwest confer- | ence, declined to comment on reports | of anti-Hoover sentiment. which is | | said to have cropped out in some | quarters. |~ “Why should any one mention Hoo- | ver?” Spangler asked. He has noth- | ing to do with this conference.” Hamilton to Speak. John D. M. Hamilton, assistant to the chairman of the Republican Na- tional Committee and also its general counsel, is to be permanent chairman of the conference and will address the Turn your old trinkets, jewelry | and watches into MONEY at | A.Kahn Jnc.

MADISON, Wis, June R (#)—The Legislature’s effort to promote by stat- ute the consumption of Wisconsin cheese and butter appeared slated for judicial scrutiny today. The Wisconsin Restaurant Associa- | tion’s directors apparently foreseeing a test case, sent a letter to all associa- tion members requesting a $1 donation to a legal fund. They decided, how- ever, no action would be taken until after the July meeting of the Board of Health. Under terms of tne law, which the Board of Health is charged with en- | forcing, at least two-thirds of an ounce of Wisconsin cheese and as | much butter must be served with | every meal costing 25 cents or more. Smuggling (Continued From First Page.) which were operating off the Atlantic Coast a year ago. In justification for presidential au- thority to establish custom zones 50 miles off the coast, the Treasury in- formed congressional leaders in a confiden‘ial report that England at one time established them 300 miles off her coests, and added: “If Great Britain could find such measures as have been aiscussed rea- sonable and necessary al a time when she was beset with smugglers. it ap- | pears proper and reasonable that the United States, harassed by a smug- gling problem vastly greater in scope than anything ever known to the British, may enact the far less dras- tic measures of the anti-smuggling bill without violating the letter or spirit of the rule of reasonableness as understood by international law.” o S Cheap Flying for Masses.

True enough, the Western powers, sensing trouble, decided to forestall the Japanese action by an important dip- lomatic maneuver; they raised their diplomatic missions to China to the rank of embassies. Queerly enough. this daring action of the powers has failed to impress Tokio and the Japanese troops are now ready to occupy the town where these embassies are located. * wait ok Two years ago this would hare created a serious complication.
