REVISION OF RADIO
CODE NEARING END
Hours of Labor for Technical
Stats Major Point Yet to
Be Adjusted.

YF current negotiations bear fruit
the N. R. A blue eagle will be
soaring over the ether waves within
a fortnight Finishing touches, 1t
is understood, are being applied to
the code of fair competition for the
hroadcasting industry. after many weeks
Of preparation and arbitration.
From N r. A. sources it is learned
that the only point at issue now ap-
pears to be the hours of labor for radio
operators and technicianS who man the
transmitterS and control panels OF
broadcasting stations. The stations
because of a reported scarcity of quail
fled operators, particularly in remote
places. and because of the long oper-
ating hours maintained by stations un-
der Government license, favor 48-hour
week. The labor unions. in behalf OF
the operators have been holding out
for 40-hour week.
Many Changes Indicated.
It is understood that far-reaching
changes have been made in the code as
originally submitted to the N r. A. two
months ago.
Agreement has been reached to pay
operators employed by the big stations,
In the so-called clear channel cate
eory. $40 per week Operators OF the
m iddle class of stations will receive $50
per week and those at local or part
time stations $40 This scale is SAID
to be considerably higher than that now
in force.
Announcers, production men, office
staffs and other employees are cared
for IN the proposed code under 40
hour week, with the usual minimum
salaries specified under the population
clause of virtually all codes. Those en-
ployes earning $35 week or above,
however. are held to be in the execu-
tive category and not subject to hours
of labor
Equity Urges Changes.
At a hearing on the proposed code
last month. the Actors Equity Assocla-
tion demanded recognition with specl-
fed minimum pay for radio performers,
and with compensation for ADDITIONS
and rehearsals. Since then, however,
It is understood that the actors have
modified their suggestions, because the
organized actors perform almost en-
tirely in the major talent centers. 1t
would be cut of the question, 1t was
nointed out to adopt regulations OF a
Character that would affect performers
over small local stations.
rOIIN B. KENNEDY, who has been
broadcasting for something like
y eight years now, has resigned aS
associate editor Of Golfers to become 3

REPEAL MOVE
DRAWS RETORT
BY w. C.. T. u.

EVANSTON, ILL.,, Aug. Is. W.P-
The Women Christian Temper
ance Union attacked the admins
tration s prohibition efforts
here today with a statement that
Workmen are going to their jobs
under the NRA and going home
drunk under the banner of repeal. !"
The statement was made in an
swer to one by Col. Louis McHenry
Howe, secretary of President Roose-
welt, in which strict enforcement
was promised when the 18th amend
ment is repealed.
''There is almost no prohibition
enforcement now" the w. c. T. U.
said. MANY saloons are selling
more whiskey than beer. The sew
eral hundred million dollars Uncle
Sam is counting on in liquor tax
means an increase in killing and
manning. Gravestones and crushed
bodies will be part of the cost of
federal tax on liquor.''
The dry organization branded
liquor repeal as "Farley's folly.
Repeal will mean that the govern
ment will act as liquor IS shop
keeper, it declared.

TO
SUPPLANT LAW

SACRAMENTO, Aug. IS. U.P) -
With the repeal of prohibition ex-
pected in the near future, educa-
ton will be reuired 10 replace leg
islation to meet the moral side of
the liquor question, in the opinion
of Vierling Kersey, state superin-
tendent of public instruction.
THE schools Kersey said, Gin
tend to approach the liquor ques-
ton from the standpoint of alco-
hol's effect on health and the de-
velopment of character traits to
resist this influence.
THE work of California schools
will not be an active crusade
against liquor as an all-menacing
evil. 1t will be program of di-
rection SO that each Individual will
be strong enough TO settle the
question for himself"
Looking toward such program,
schools are planning revised cur
riculum of ciyicS instruction en-
phasizing law respect, Kersey ex
planned. The state curriculum also
has prepared a handbook on the
liquor question which will be dis
tributed to all public school teach

planes, automobile squad cars and
police on foot were modified today
in a huge manhunt understood to
be directed at two kidnap suspects.
Great secrecy surrounded the police
expedition at the outset.
The suspects were reported to
have been located and pursued in
an automobile. One was believ ed
wounded as they. abandoned the
car and sought refuge in a wooded
section.
There were reports that the raid
was organized on information OBJ
tanned following the arrest in Texas
of Harvey j. Bailey in connection
with the kidnapping of Charles F.
Urschel. wealthy Oklahoma oil man.
It was understood one of the mon
sought was Verne G. Miller and the
other was known to police only as
Phillips.
Todays drive centered near the
edge Of LAGRANGE, ILL.,, and the po-
lice station there had terse reports
of the progress of the raid. AS the

AGREEMENT IN
FILM ST R|kE

HOLLYWOOD, Aug. Is. W.P)-
The National Recovery Admins
tration and the American Fedora
ton of Labor were empowered to-
day to negotiate a settlement in
the strike of 5000 motion picture
technicians.
Strike leaders and film produc-
ers agreed to government interview
ton at a conference with Timothy
A. Reardon, state director of indus
trial relations, who was appointed
mediator by Gov. James Rolph, Jr.
Reardon said both factions had
agreed to recognize government
methods in restoring harmony.
A jurisdictional dispute between
two rival unions, which producers
claimed was the nub of the con-
troversy, will be referred to meet
ing of the A. F.. L. in Washington
next October, Reardon said. The
dispute centers about the right of
the I. A. T. s. E., theatrical union
and the I. B. E. w., electrical un-
ion, to control sound workers.
Producers have argued the entire
strike hinged upon this inter-union
the I. A. T. S. E. theatrical union
atives accused producers of Selling
upon this issue as a pretext for re-
fusing to negotiate with them. The
union officials had urged NRA in

JOHNSON GOES
TO BAT WITH
STEEL CHIEFS

WASHINGTON, Aug. Is. W.H -
General Hugh S. Johnson, blunt
spoken national recovery admins
traitor, went to bat with leaders OF
the steel industry today On major
disputes which have blocked appl1-
cation of the NRA program to i'm
portant sections of American busi-
ness
The foremost issue was whether
steel and allied industries backed
by some of the country's most pow
erful financial interests would per-
NIT their employees to join ulucns
other than those sponsored by the
employers. During hearings on lts
proposed code, the steel industry
withdraw a specific provision Tor
maintenance of company unions
But at the same time it served no.
tice that it intended to resist ef-
forts of organized labor TO extend
trado unions in that field under
the protection guaranteed by the
recovery act.
In addition to the problem Gre
ated by this defiance, johnson was
understood to be not entirely salts
field with the schedules OF hours
and wages proposed in the steer
code. - -,
