CASH IDEA Up
IN CODE QUIZ
By international News Service

BY International News Service
Wide splits between several
groups were expected today as
hearing was resumed on the
code for the nations retailers.
The unfair competition" pro-
visions of the code submitted by
six leading retail trade associa-
tions were scheduled for an air
ing.
Factions of prominent depart
ment and chain store owners are
listed as witnesses who will dis
cuss those provisions. They will
line up for or against certain
advertising and trade tactics that
might be judged by the code ad-
ministrators to be violations of
the ruling against knocking
competitors"
Involved in these arguments
will be cash,store owners and
credit-store owners These fac
tions are expected to present
various arguments for or against
the cost-plus price-fixing pro-
visions of the proposed code.
For many years cash-store
owners have contended in adver-
tisements that credit purchases
are not as economical as cash
purchases, and credit-store own
ers have made various rebuttals.
Some of the cash store critics
of the cost-plus price-tixing pro-
visions of the code contend that
this method of setting retail
prices will destroy their socalled
advantage" over credit stores.
Installment credit store fac
tions are also expected to offer
disagreements both with regular
credit account stores and cash
store renreSentativeS

Nine Days.

Happy at the opportunity of visiting
again his old home at Hyde Park, N. Y,
President Roosevelt left Washington
this afternoon to be gone nine days.

Before leaving the Capital the
President said emphatically that his
going to New York at this time. when
there is considerable speculation as
to his interests in the mayoralty fight
there. was of no particular significance.
He does not expect to see any political
leaders during his brief stay in that
city
Mr.. Roosevelt, however. conferred
with Postmaster General Farley short
ly after breakfast this morning. They
discussed number of matters relat-
ing to patronage. 1t was learned that
the President will await his return
from Hyde Park before giving further
thought to the appointment of the
new civilian Commissioners for the
District and the distribution Of other
local patronage in the Capital City.
The President took with him today
quantity of business papers and expects
to keep busily engaged the greater part
of the time at Hyde Park. Accompany
ing him were Marvin H. Mcintyre and
Stephen T. Early, two of his secre-
taries, Miss Marguerite LIE Hand. his
private secretary. and Miss Roberta
Barrows, Miss Wilma Meredith, Henry
Came, Edward Smithers and Joseph
Sheehan of the executive staff.
The President will leave Hyde Park
to start back for Washington on the
morning of October f. He will go first

ming he will deliver an address at a
large meeting of the Catholic Chari-
ties at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel. after
which he will resume his journey to

CHICAGO, September 26.-Cancers
are caused by daughter" cells of the
body running wild, DR.. Rollin H.
Stevens Of Detroit told the American
Congress of Radiology today.
DR.. Stevens. president of the Ameri-
can Radium Society, explained that
cells in the body are known as mother"
and daughter" The first have the
power of division and produce the
daughter" cells. The second do not
divide. but evolve into the higher types
Of cells which compose the functioning
parts of the body
Cancer occurs, he continued. when
the daughter" cells do not evolve into
others, but instead change their type
and proceed to reproduce themselves,
unnaturally and entirely without res
traint. They multiply so rapidly that
they form a tumor, then invade neigh
boring tissues robbing them Of nourish-
ment, and spread to other areas and
eventually destroy the whole body.
X-ray and radium help cure cancer,
he said, because mother" cells are
highly sensitive to irradiation, "daugh-
ter" cells are not much affected by
rays, but when they become cancer
cells they also acquire sensitiveness
to ray therapy.

|PLAN CANCELLATION
FOR j. s. EMPLOYEES
Propose Committees to Han.
die Disputes Among Gov
ernment Workers.

The move to establish conciliation
committees in the executive establish
ment to handle disputes of employees
is being pressed by the Civil Service
Commission, it was said today.
1t was explained that in the past
few days President Mitchell of the
commission has conferred with the
Secretaries of Agriculture, Commerce
and Labor relative to the proposal.
1t was added that these department
heads were sympathetic to the plan.
The committees are being set up as a
forerunner to the hoped-for establish
ment by law of court of appeals"
to adjust differences between employees
and employers.
The Treasury Department is working
out plan for a committee now, and
something definite is looked for there
in the near future, there having been
a delay due to the absence from Wash
ington of Acting Secretary Acheson.
The Civil Service Commission was
the first establishment to set up one
of these committees and formal notice
was directed today to all employees Of
the commission informing them the
committee was ready to function. The
notice also explained procedure.
