pending industrial control bill.

WASHINGTON, June Admin
istration plans for applying the in
dustrial control bill, about to be
passed by congress, call for action
Immediately in half a dozen basic
industries.
Early industries affected probab-
ly will include iron and steel, tex
tiles, coal, oil and automobiles.
Those now working out plans be-
lieve the start should be made with
these big basic industries which
employ perhaps 10 per cent of all
industrial labor.
Success in these first great indus
tries might be sufficient, some in
the administration hope, to make
further application of the far
reaching measure unnecessary.
This program, as authoritatively
outlined in the first article of this
series yesterday, is based not on CO.
ercion of industry, but on persua-
sion and initiative by industry. 1t
is viewed as drive to put men and
women back to work and thereby
create new buying power-a re-
employment measure.
Price control will enter where it
is necessary to protect consumers
from pryamiding Of additional labor
costs. Industries will be urged to
cushion increased payrolls resulting
from shortening of hours and rails
ing of hourly wage rates, by econ
omies elsewhere. Where price in
creases are inevitable, the govern
ment will seek trade agreements
limiting these to a fair return.
Public support and the coopera-
ton of the industries concerned are
vital to success, government Off
cials declare. They feel it would be
impossible to make the plan work
against the opposition of the indus
tries. The hotly contested licensing
features, they emphasize, are
needed to protect cooperating in
dustries from cut-throats who re-
fused to join in the movement and
tried to undersell through sweat
ship practices.
The impression is widespread
that the administration seeks to
set up an industrial czar to direct

FLAX GROWERS
HOLD MEETING

Appointment of a committee to
investigate the possibilities OF i'm
porting flax seed and of market
ing the product was made at last
night s meeting of flax growers
held at the court house.
Jack Strobel of El Centre was
elected chairman. the other mem
bers being: Fred w. Johnson OF
Brawley, M. K. Shields of West
morland, R. w. Ware of Calipatria,
Fred Gunterman of Calexico, Evan
Harris of Calexico and Stephen
SturgeS of Yuma, Arizona.
Since most of the valley growers
intend to use the seed grown by
them for their own use, seed Will
have to be imported.
j. A. Kagan, who talked to grow
ers at a meeting in May, explained
the possibility of engaging in COM
mercial operations should the flax
industry develop in the valley. The
marketing and distributing of flax
was the theme of his talk to the
growers last night. His plan calls
for formation of a flax grower IS
cooperative organization VIII C h
would contract with some private
concern for the milling of the flax.
The finished products would then
be turned back to the cooperative
to market, these finished products
being linseed oil and meal.
The committee appointed will OBJ
tain further information Kagan IS
plan and also interview milling
concerns.
w. w. Weeth, foreman of the
Meloland experiment station, dis
cussed the yields obtained by grow
ers this year, the largest yield per
acre for flax grown commercially
being obtained by Fred Gunterman
who harvested 800 bushels of re-
cleaned seed.

INDUSTRIAL CONTROL BILL NOT
DICTATORSHIP FOR INDUSTRY

, the business of corner grocerymen
in far away villages.
johnson No CZar
This picture is accentuated by
the fact that the man who has been
tentatively selected to administer
the bill is an aggressive retired
army general, Hugh S. Johnson,
who for 10 years has been in busi-
ness. He has some of the gruff,
hard hitting, direct-action ways
that made Charles G. Dawes a spec
tacular figure here.
But the other side of the picture
is this. johnson was one of the men
responsible for putting across the
wartime selective draft Twice be-
fore conscription in America had
failed. On reason was that govern
ment agents went out and tore
youths from their mothers arms.
CONSUMPTION was denounced as un-
American. johnson sold it to the
country as patriotic and demo-
cratic way of raising an army. Great
ceremony was made over drawing
the draft numbers. 1t was staged
so that all could see that it was
fair and impartial in operation.
The country rallied to it.
The same was true of the war
industries board, on which johnson
represented the army. That board
had licensing powers similar to
those now sought in the national
recovery bill. They were used a
couple of times. Public sentiment
did the job, in both the war in
dustries board and the draft.
The administration hopes it will
be the same this time.
Industries will be called in. Some,
such as textiles, already have Or
ganized and are working out codes.
Opponents have challenged con-
stitutionality of the measure on the
ground that it would abridge pri-
vate rights. Administration spokes-
