sHARING THE SPOTLIGHT

But at that, never a day passes that several important stories do not come out of NRA headquar- ters. The difference is that now it isn't the whole show as once it was.
 Johnson himself predicted this when recently he said that MIRA had entered it's third stage-the enforcement stage. The impllca- ton was that the code or organl- zation period was about over.
 The scene of interest has changed to those directly involved in the recovery program. syn chronization and simplification of codes to make them workable and to bring about recovery now is the big job.
 If has been a matter of great concern to high government ol- ficials as to how that 90-day per ind between the time the manufac- t,,rer makes his outlay and the time he will begin to get returns is to be bridged.
 That's why the Buy NOW cam oaign" was started.

HALLOWEEN DANCE

AS well as being a financial sue cess. the Halloween Dance gwen under the auspices of the Hospital Child in the Elks' Hall last night was one of the most enjoyable af- fairs given in Juneau in many months.
 Proceeds from the dance should assure the furnishing of a room in the new wing of St. Ann's Hospital, according to Mrs. w. A. Holzheimer, president of the Guild, who was delighted with the at tendance at the dance. Especial credit for the success of the. even ing goes to Mrs. J. F.

 Among the hostesses who gave dinner parties before the Hallow- cen party were Mrs. Holzheimer' Mrs. Mullen and Mrs. l. P. ray Tor.
 Dancing began at 9:3o with the peveler's Orchestra furnishing the music and the hall was crowded when the last dance was played at 100 o'clock.

MIRA EMPHASIS
 BEING SHIFTED; REGULAR THING
Gen. Johnson and Aides Are Now Merging
 Into Whole Show
By HERBERT PLUMMER

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-Those who have watched MIRA from the beginning are observing what might be called shift of emphasis re- lating to it and it's work.
 General Johnson and his aids, who so long have held the center of the stage, day by day seem to be merging into the recovery pro- gram as a whole.
 That change may be noticed in the present attendance at the Ad- ministrator's bi-weekly press con- ferences. It is seen in the absence of the milling crowds in the corri- dors around headquarters of MIRA.
 A few weeks ago a Johnson press conference resembled something like a rally of Washington news papermen. Only one of the Pres ident's outnumbered his in point of attendance.
 At first it was necessary to con duct them in a large room on the first floor of the department o1 commerce building. Now the cor respondents very easily may be arranged around the generals desk in his private office.
