CITY AND COUNTY DOCTORS
CALLED BY MORE OF JOBLESI

WASHINGTON - (FP) - Home
visits by city and county physicians in
8 city areas increased nearly 300 per
cent in number between 1929 and 1882,
according to statistics compiled by the
U. S. Children's Bureau. These med
zeal services are given to families who
no longer are able to pay the fees of
doctors in private practice.
Cities in which this trend toward
free medical care was reported were
Chicago, Detroit, Minneapolis, st.
Paul, Omaha, Akron, Cleveland and
Dayton. Last December the number
of visits to the poor-who are ac-
tually the unemployed-was $50 per
cent above the 1929 average.

MORGAN INTERESTS BLOCKING
THE RECOVERY ACT
SPIDERWEB HOLDS UP NEW CODES


WASHINGTON, D.. C.-J. P. Nor
gan & Co., through their nationwide
spiderweb of control of basic indus
tries, this week were blocking the
submission of codes of fair competition
by all of the chief industries of the
United States, when Administrator
Hugh Johnson summoned the Labor,
Industrial and Consumer Advisory
Boards to meet him in joint session
at his headquarters, to discuss how
organized capitalism is to be dragged
or coaxed into the partnership"
which Roosevelt and Johnson have so
often announced.
Instead of being able to offer 200
to 500 codes, ready for hearings
and modification and approval,
johnson was able to tell his advis-
DRY boards that only 40 proposed
codes were in, and none of these was
from an important group. The
lead pencil manufacturers had
agreed upon a proposed code, but
the steel, bituminous coal, automo-
bile, rubber, chemical and other
giants had mot yet completed prep
arations."
The fact was that many industries
had prepared to submit to govern
ment control, and then had suddenly
sent out word that they would not
proceed, after all. Word had come
from higher up. The Morgan crowd
was testing its power against that of
the Roosevelt administration.
Debate Regulations.
When the Labor Advisory board
members came into Johns joint meet
ing they were in belligerent mood.
They had been up two nights, argu-
ing against the wages and hours pro-
vided in the cotton textile code before
they agreed to accept it as a COM
promise until they should be able to
force amendments into its text.
When Johnson was asked to set dates
for hearings on steel and coal, and he
had to confess that no codes had come
in from those industries, labor spokes-
men asked how long the country was
Montana labor news., 1933-07-20

Moses himself would have had a
difficult time writing codes for manu-
facturers who must come in under
what many of them interpret as the
national recovery of profits act.
In the Commerce Building in Wash
ington, where the National Recovery
Administration is putting millions to
work, hundreds of dismissed govern
ment workers stand in the corridors,
wondering when they will become re-
cipients of a little recovery.

to wait on its financial bosses to per-
nit a federal law to be enforced.
johnson pleaded that the owners
had not had enough time to educate
themselves to the benefits of the New
Deal.
Charge Sabotage.
Labor men replied that the owners
had been given due warning and am
pie time; that they were sabotaging
the Presidents recovery program
which Congress had made the nations
program; that further delay would
merely strengthen the defiant attitude
of Big Business, and that it was now
time to o a program of COM
pulsion. They asked that Johnson
and the President serve notice that if
within two weeks the codes were not
filed, in harmony with the spirit of
the law, then Sec. A of the Act would
be invoked. This is the licensing Sec
ton, under which the government has
the right to lock up any factory and
close any mine or other productive
plant where the code to be dictated by
the President is not obeyed.
"The situation is that the indus
tries are ~concertedly defying the
law" one of the labor board said.
"If we wait go days, public inter
est in this program of restoring
buying power and getting the 12,-
100000 unemployed back to work
will have been diverted to some
thing else-perhaps monetary in
flation. We must have action in
good faith now"

GOLD PAYMENT OF CONTRACTS
 DECLARED OFF.
Administration 'sResolution Is Given Final
 Approval

WASHINGTON, June 5.-Amid cries of bad faith and repudiation, the Senate last Saturday afternoon gave final congressional approval to the Administrations resolution permitting payment of all contracts in legal tender money.
 Overwhelming a coalition of Democrats and Western Republi- cans, the measure was driven through by vote of 48 to 20.
 The measure eliminated the gold payment requirements on all con- tracts, public and private, either present or future. This means war debts, mortgages, liberty bonds as well as all other governmental and private obligations may be settled in legal tender money obviating that gold must be used.
 The resolution has already pass ed the House and needs only the signatures of President Gar ner and Speaker Rainey before go- ing to the White House.
 Two attempts to modify the measure by eliminating its retro active features to exclude govern mental obligations were rejected.
