TOBE DRAFTED
At CHICAGO
Church to Bring Its Employees
Under NRA Rule; Takoma
Group to Aid in Plan

A special committee of Seventh
Day Adventists today will leave
Takoma Park for Chicago where
they will meet Adventists from
all sections of the country to
consider code under which to
work with the National Recovery
Administration.
The code will be drawn up
primarily for educational work
ers, the Adventists having eight
colleges and 80 academies scat
tered throughout the country.
In these schools certain indus
trial enterprises exist, the ma
jority of which do not compete
with outside interests. These in
dustrial enterprises, however, will
work under the code.
Takoma Park Adventists. who
will attend the session, are J.
L. Shaw. w. I. Smith, C. P.
Crager, w. H. Williams, H. H.
Votaw, w. H. Branson, M. C.
Taft and c.. H. Watson.
The conference. to be held to-
morrow night, will include Adven-
tist educational workers from all
sections of the country. Busi-
ness managers also will attend.

PARTY To STAGE
ORGANIZATION

Organization of the Arlington
county Democratic committee
will be accomplished within a
few days, it was learned today.
AS yet a call for meeting of the
committee has not been issued by
retiring Chairman William l..
Bragg.
Two controversies are expected
to arise when the committee
meets. One is over the selec-
ton of a chairman. The other
is over appointment of members
to fill vacancies in precincts
that were not voted upon in the
election August /.
At the present time Bragg,
Charles FenwicK, of Falls Church,
and Emory Hosmer, of Arlington,
are mentioned as possible chair
men.
AS regards selection of new
members, it appears that Dele
gate Hugh Reid, of Cherrydale,
and Thomas j. Crack, of Bail
ston, will be appointed. Voters
in both precincts made efforts
to write in the names of these
men in the election. but were
barred by a ruling of Attorney
General Saunders.

ANXIETY SEEN
AMONG MEN IN
NAVY YARDS
Federation Officials Note That
Government Already Has Run
Counter to Private Codes
BY DUNCAN FORSYTH

Officials of the American Fed
Grafton of Government Employees
today were considering the pos
sible effect on Federal workers Of
the NRA policy with respect to
labor saving machinery.
Practically every code adopted
by private industry has declared
against plant extensions and ex-
pansions, and against the intro
duction of further labor-Saving
devices.
The question in the minds Of
Federal employees is whether the
Federal Government will accept
that point of view, or run coun-
ter to it.
Conflicts Noted
The question is one Of vital i'm
portance to the thousands of en-
ployes of arsenals and navy yards
throughout the country, particu-
larly in view of the probable ex-
tensive use of navy yards in the
naval construction program.
Federal employees point out that
the Government has run counter
to private business in several i'm
portant matters affecting indus
trial stabilization.
In the first place, there is no
provision for a code for Govern
ment workers, though President
William Green, of the American
Federation of Labor, has signified
his intention to call joint con-
ference of employees organizations
to devise one for the attention OF
Congress.
Important to Business
Secondly, the Government has
run counter to its program for
private business in the matters Of
wage increases and reduction OF
hours.
If these are to be taken as
criteria, it is felt that the Gov
ernment might be unwilling to
bind itself to a program barring
further use of labor-saving ma
chinery, and this might mean
that many workers on furloughs
would not be recalled.
Private business may meet Gov
ernment competition both in ship
construction and in furnishing
electric power, according to pres
ent indications, and the problem
is therefore one of importance to
business interests as we'll as to
the Federal workers.
Labor Hands Off"
So far as private business is
concerned, the code bars against
introduction of new labor-saving
devices are projected by the in
dustries themselves, without any
suggestion on the part of labor in
terests, whether organized or un-
organized.
It is understood, however, that
labor outside the Government
service has been quite willing to
adopt "hands off" policy con-
cerning these plans.

Differences Settled

Differences of opinion between salmon packers as to whether the industry should come under the canners' or fisheries code were apparently solved during the fish cries hearing this week when both clements came out in favor of an Independent code.
 If this plan is carried through it means that the industry will be considered by the National Re covery Administration as a separ ate and distinct unit.
 Delegate Dimond and many other observers believe the best possible choice was made The Delegate has thought, and stated publicly, from the start, that salmon packers in Alaska had only a distant family .-eonnection with that branch Of the industry which will be prin- eipally represented on the code authority of the fisheries code That authority will be chiefly con- cerned with catching and market ing of fresh fish and the problems of Alaska and the Pacific North west. might not receive the atten- tion they ought to have. In thc Delegates opinion even stronger objections could be made to a sub- sidiary code under the canners code. There salmon packing would represent only one phase of a high ly diversified business.

 Benjamin A. Haldane, City Treas urer, was reelected against Russell Hayward and James Evans.
 In the race for the post of Town Clerk, Charles Brendible, incum- bent, also was reelected.
