; Chinese Ships
OuitROaming,
GetA Job

SHANGHAI, July IL uN.SO.
Three Chinese warships, which
have been "free-lancing" through
Oriental waters in search Of a
lob. finally found one today.
They were enlisted by Canton
authorities to form a South
China patrol for protection Of
the coast against pirates or pos
sible attack.
The ships were footloose for
some time after their crews mu-
tinted against the alleged tyranny
of their admiral, and their failure
for days to ally themselves with
any group kept Chinese official
circles in an anxious state.
It was feared for a time the
vessels might attach themselves
to some anti-government or re-
bellious group, thus adding to the
constant threat of civil war in
China.
The three ships were repudi-
ated by the Marking government
after the mutiny. They are the
Hal Chi, the Hal Shen and the
Chao Ho. Their enlistment for
service in the south eliminated
several days of pickering between
their commanders and Cantonese
officials aimed at attaching them
to the Cantonese navy.

With several basic industries
prepared to submit codes of fair
competition, shorter hours, and
better wages, Brig. Gen. Hugh S.
johnson, industrial recovery ad-
rlinistrator, today was consider
ing promulgation of a series Of
model codes to assist other in
dustries in setting up regulations
He said:
"It has been represented to
me that if the industries knew
better just what was expected
Of them in this new procedure,
IL would help them"

The codes would attempt in
general terms to suggest what was
necessary to restore buying power
to the 1926 level, or even that of
1929, Johnson said. He felt sew
eral varieties of this model might
be necessary to meet conditions
Of different industrial fields.
johnson said he had seen state
ments emanating apparently from
manufacturers association sources
which "look almost like propa-
ganda," and which advised their
interests to "wait and see" before
rushing in with codes.
Indiana coal interests already
have a code with Johnson, the So
called Jacksonville Agreement
Mines, including coal areas of II
States, expected to be ready to-
day, and other associations were
ready, or nearly so.
Oil Code Ready
An oil code is ready, johnson
said. as well as one from vir.
Eually all elements of the steel

resenting the Independent Pc
$roleum Association, asked Presi-
dent Roosevelt for an order,
under power Of the Industrial
Recovery Act, prohibiting inter"
state transportation of oil pro-
duced in violation of State law.
He charged that "hot oil" pro-
ducers were drawing 100000 to
100000 barrels of oil Illegally
every day.

BOND THEFTS

LOS ANGELES. Cal. July IL
CU.S0.-Through his own testi'
mony on file today in Superior
Court, Leslie B. Henry revealed
for the first time how vast
amounts OF securities belonging
to Mrs. Charlotte Shelby. mother
of Mary Miles Minter, famous
star Of yesterday, were placed
within his gasp seven years ago
and were later stolen by him by
the handful.
And by queer trick Of fate,
the theft I these hundreds OF
thousands OF dollars worth OF
bonds was made possible by Mrs.
Shelby herself, according to the
once prominent bond executive
and civic leader.
The first batch Of these bonds
all in fictitious names-came to
him from Mrs. Shelby when she
assertedly fled to Europe in 1926
because she feared the injurious
financial results Of Miss Minter's
court action against her for an
accounting Of her $1,000,000 film
salary. and because she feared
the possibility of criminal prose
cution by the Government on in
come tax matters, Henry testi-
fled.
At that time, he stated in his
deposition, both Mrs. Shelby and
her other daughter, Margaret
Shelby Fillmore, believed they
were under surveillance and Mrs
Shelby feared that as q result
any bonds she left in Los An
geles for the use Of Mrs. Fillmore
might be attached,

WORLD COPPER CODE
FORESEEN BY EXPERTS
International Trade Scheme May
Be Pioneered by U. S.

DE TtOHeeTeu Dy 4. >.
BIZ United Press
LONDON, Oct. 6.-Prospects for
an early resumption of negotiations
for an international copper regula-
ton scheme depend now entirely
upon the United States.
Experts expect some new move by
the United States producers this
autumn-certainly before the year
end-but it is evident that they
will receive little or no encourage
ment from producers elsewhere.
While not lethargic, Belgian and
other African producers appear to
prefer to sit back and wait for the
United States to act.
Chief responsibility for the cha
otto condition of the copper indus
try is aScribed to United States
producers, and on this account the
tendency will be to cooperate only
after the western hemisphere pro-
ducerS shoulder the bulk of the in
evitable sacrifices required to re-
establish equilibrium between sup
ply and demand.
There is a tendency to believe
that President Franklin Roosevelt
will turn his attention to copper
as soon as he can find the time.
