RAILWAYS WARNED
| ON LABOR ATTITUDE
Hands OFF Employees 0ryani'
cations Demanded in Let
ter by Eastman.
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
Joseph b. Eastman, Federal trans
portation CO. ordinator, yesterday
warned railway arrangements to keep
their hands OF 20 far as labor organ
nations are concerned" In . plainly
worded statement sent to all Interstate
rail carriers. The warning was At
tached to . questionnaire ON labor
policies and practices sent to the rail-
search directed to be made By the re-
cent railway legislation.
Eastman said he had received
many complaints" which led him to
believe the labor provisions, including
that one prohibiting railroads from
using their own funds to maintain
company unions, were being "over-
looked Or misunderstood"
In preface to the lengthy question:
natre, the co-ordinator served notice
on the roads he intended to enforce
these provisions to the letter.
He gave the railroads until October
told the managements his star would
make investigations Of particular
situations on the ground"
Eastman listed the five labor para
graphs of the 1888 railroad act and
added:
1T will be noted that these provisions
do not prohibit any particular variety
Of labor organization, but they do give
the railrosd employees absolute freedom
Of choice In joining such organizations
without coercion or influence Of any
description on the part Of the railroad
managements; and they prohibit the
latter from using railroad funds to
maintain any labor organisation.
In other words, managements must
keep their hands Oh 70 far a. labor
organizations are concerned"

PRESIDENT SEEKS

New Proposals to Be Trans

~ the Associated Press.

9y the Associated Press.
Beset by national and foreign prob
LENS, President Roosevelt has found
time, however, to take the proposed
sugar sterilization agreement in hand
IN an effort to work out . compromise
on the long delayed pact.
: After thorough review Of the dtu-
Atom at q conferences with cabinet Of
fcers and Farm and Tariff Commission
oficials, the Chief Executive designated
DR.. John Lee Coulter to transmit new
proposals to the contending factions.
: Coulter, q Tariff Commission MEM
ber, was borrowed by the Farm Adjust
ment Administration months ago when
the sugar marketing agreement was
first suggested. He knows what each
group wants and what 1t does not want.
: Joins in Conference.
He participated in the conference
with the President yesterday. Others
at the meeting were Secretaries HUI,
Wallace, Dern and IckeS: Jefferson Caf-
frey, Assistant Secretary Of State and
Ambassador designate to Cuba; George
N. Peek, administrator Of the farm act,
and Charles j. Brand, co-administrator
! Is In the past, the parley revolved
around the proposed quota that each
producing group would be allowed to
supply the domestic market. The en-
tire allotment would be 6,575.000 tons
yearly as the agreement now stands.
Cuba would be allowed to supply
10000 tons annually; the domestic
beet producers, 1,750,000; Hawaii, 975,-
900 tons; the Philippines, 955.920:
Puerto Rico, 875,000; Virgin Islands,
1880; Loutsiana, $4,000, and Florida,
Iaauh In Opposition.
The Philippines and Cuba particu-
larry object to that tentative arrange
ment. The former wants minimum
of 200 900 tons annually and Cuba ct
least 100000 tons.
These facts and many other angles OF
the involved situation were presented to
the President He Is keenly interested
in Cuba stabilization and the admins
-tration is known to feel there u truth
In the assertion by island of1cials that
the increased sugar tariff Of 1890 has
contributed largely to the economic
crisis in that country.
Tariffs, however, were touched upon
only incidentally today, those taking
part in the discussions said.

BUILDING TRANSFER

Asks Wallace for Reason
Why Agriculture Structures
Should Be Exempt.

Secretary Of the Interior Harold L.
1ckes has put this poser to Secretary
Of Agriculture Henry T. wallace: Is
the Department Of Agriculture such .
building that its peculiar purpose ex-
empts It, under the Presidents reoY-
ganization program, from being trans
ferred to the Once Of National Parks,
Buildings and Reservations?
Under President Roosevelts execu-
tive order, reorganizing the Govern
ment, 1t Il provided that functions Of
the administration Of public buildings
shall be merged Ia the once Of Ma
tonAl ParkS, Buildings and Reserva-
lions, Except that where deemed de-
stIable there may be excluded from this
provision any public building or reser-
facility In the work Of . particular
agency"
Asks Wallace for Reason.
Secretary Ickes thinks the Depart
ment Of Agriculture structures should
come under his oficial wing and he
wants Secretary Wallace to tell him any
valid reason why they should not be.
As It Is, the custody Of most Of Uncle
Sans big Government buildings here
Is now under the Once Of National
Parks, Buildings and Reservations, but
the Department. Of Agriculture has its
own cleaning force, its own buildings,
guards and its own building rules and
regulations. For more effective and ef-
ncient administration, as well as econ
omy, the Interior Department thinks
the Agriculture group should come
under It.
The Bureau Of the Budget, to which
the question was first referred, indicated
that It agreed with the Interior De-
partment that Agriculture should be
shifted. unless It was chiefly employed
as . facility" for its work. The budget
and Interior were one IN agreeing that
the Bureau Of Standards Is such q
building, % that 1t viii continue to
maintain It's own forces.
Interior Department authorities eX-
pect that the Veterans Administration
Building. together with It's cleaning
force and buildings guards, will be
transferred shortly to the jurisdiction

CONGRATULATIONS TO BREVARD

The Junior college of the Methodist de-
nomination, to be the successor of Weaver
and Rutherford colleges, will be located at
Brevard occupying the property of Bro
ward Institute. This announcement was
made yesterday by the educational COM
mittee of the Western North Carolina Con-
ference. The decision to locate the merged
educational institution in Brevard was re-
ceived in that town with great rejoicing, in
which the friends of Brevard here and else
where units in all sincerity.
The KiwaniS Club of Hendersonville and
other friends here of the movement to To-
cate the college at Brevard, congratulate
that town on the success attending it's cam
paign to secure this educational institution.
With the forces of the Western North
Carolina Conference backing the upbuild-
ing Of this institution, it should grow into
a large and important college and become
a great factor in the educational develop
ment of this entire mountain section of the
State.
The material benefits to be secured by
bIeFdIu anu 1IdISylFdilId County through
the location of the college will no doubt
prove of considerable value, but they will
be of far less total value and will be less
enduring than the higher benefits that are
certain to come to the community and sec
ton if the people receive the institution in
the right spirit and make a sincere effort to
profit by the opportunities it will afford
The educational opportunities offered by
the college will undoubtedly make large
contribution to the advancement of higher
education in this section. The moral and
spiritual benefits to the people of the sec
ton should prove to be the best contribu-
ton of the institution to the general adj
vancement of the mountain region.

NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING
Statesman,

In the of advertising sins COM
mitted than anything else in the commercial life.
The anxiety of the average business man to find
a new way to advance his interests makes him an
easy victim of the shark and CRATER with some
scheme which he calls advertising Every business
man has paid for his shortsightedness in waste of
advertising funds.
Strange to say, such losses do not seem to have
educated many of the victims, and this sort of
fraud is one of the best paying rackets being
worked today. Many merchant will ignore the
faithful efforts of his local publisher and the value
of his home town newspaper as an advertising me-
dunn, to patronize these rackets.
1t would seem that in this Twentieth century,
and age of modern commerce, everybody would
fully recognize the place of the newspaper in mod
ern life. Not only is it bought and paid for a
medium of current news, but its advertising col
umns are regarded as news as well, and the sound
est kind of investment for the reader as well
as the advertiser. The reader looks to these adver
Using columns as a guide to his purchasing OF
everything that enters into his economic plans. He
is influenced and guided by the information thus
gained by practically all of his investments and
purchases.
The newspaper is read by every member of the
family, the man. the woman and all of the children
old enough to read. Practically all of the family
spending is directed by information gained by
reading of advertising in the family newspaper.
On the other hand, who ever heard of the fam
lily spending being influenced by the multitude of
freak advertising and ballyhoo sold by these
smooth-tongued artists who here today and
gone tomorrow? In these times of economic stress
every advertising dollar should be used where it
will buy the most merchandising service. This is
no time to waste hard-e earned funds from dimin-
ished profits in freak and spasmodc advertising.
The place to spend the entire appropriation is in
the local newspaper on a wellplanned and prac-
teal advertising campaign that will sell merchan-
disc.
There never has been time when the buyer
was more careful of his spending more diligent
in searching for the best his money will buy. He
will watch the columns of his newspaper for in
formation that, the most important problem of
his present existence. 1t is up to the modern mer-
chant to furnish this information and place it where
it will be readily found, in the advertising columns
of the local newspaper.-Texas Commercial News.
