LABOR IS READY
FOR CODE TEST
CONTINUED from Page ~

(Continued from Page ~
of the A. F.. of L., and President
Lewis, of the United Mine
Workers, said they would impose
inclusion in a coal code of the
provision in the automobile code
in which employers reserve the
right to take on or discharge
labor without reference to union
rules.
Green explained the provision
as it appears in the automobile
code Is not quite in line with the
attitude of the Labor Advisory
Board. There was left out Of the
provision in the auto code the
insistence of the Labor Advisory
Board that the provision should
not be a precedent.
Green Explains
Green hinted that the labor
proviso in the automobile code
was agreed to because of commit
ments made by the Revocery Ad-
ministration some time ago. 1t
has been reported that Admins
traitor johnson made the COM
mitment. Green said:
eve agreed to it in the auto
mobile code, but we will oppose
it in the coal and any other
CODE"
He added that there is a "se-
cret" in connection with the ap-
proval, so far as the automobile
code is concerned.
NRA officials were expecting
Henry Ford, who did not join in
the automobile code. either to ac-
cept it or propose more liberal
scheme of operation of his own.
General Johnson was conf
dent the effort to bring all en-
movement would be successful, as
the special Blue Eagle drive got
under way today.
The National Recovery Admins,
tration has a heavy stake in the
success of the effort. Although
many big industries have accepted
permanent codes, it will require
months to bring all industries
under the codes of fair competi-
ton set up by the law.
Short Cut, Aim
The Blue Eagle campaign was
described as a shortcut to the end
of unemployment. On the one
hand, Johnson's aides were ap-
pealing to employers to sign the
Presidents blanket code while con-
sumers were being asked to lend
their influence and their purse to
the movement.
Not since the days of the Four
Minute Men of the World War
has such a campaign been at
tempted. The recovery admins
tration has enlisted 1000 speakers
to be dispatched on orders from
Washington. while 10000 more
local committee speakers will aid.
At least 5000 parades will be
held during the period, it was
estimated. More than a half bill
lion pieces of literature were pre-
pared for use in the next several
days.
In an effort to avoid politics,
the Recovery Administration an
nounced 1t had enlisted scoSes of
prominent Republican speakers.
The drive will end on Labor
Day, when johnson will address
huge throng in Chicago.

Sec. Hull Wishes MoIey
Success on New Job
BY International News Service


The resignation Of Assistant
Secretary of State Raymond
Moley, No. l man of the Roose-
Velt brain trust" announced
from New York, came as a dis
tinct surprise to Secretary Of
State Hull, the latter declared to-
day.
Although Moley and Hull were
so far apart in their views on
foreign policy that a place was
found for the professor in the
Justice Department, Hull was
emphatic in declaring Moley's
resignation from the State De
partment had never been sug-
gested by him to President Roose-
velt. Recently Moley has been in
charge of the nations drive
against racketeers.
In his statement Hull said:
Having been on a two weeks
vacation in the mountains of
Virginia, I had no information
before hand that Prof. MOley
contemplated resigning. 1 may
and that I can accurately say
in this connection that 1 had
not at any time offered the
slightest suggestion to either
the President or Mr.. MOIey rela-
tive to any present or future
change of official status of the
latter as Assistant Secretary of
State.
II wish Prof. MOley every
success in his new field and
will at all times gladly Co
operate with him in every
feasible way both in that field
and in all possible joint efforts
in support of the President"

|NSULL ASSA|LS
j, {. CLAIMS

ATHENS, Aug. % G.N.SO.
Contention of the U. S. Federal
authorities that the Greek courts
have no right to inquire into the
substance of the case against
Samuel insult was challenged by
attorneys for the indicted former
utilities magnate today.
The courts are granted such
powers, it was said, by virtue of
clause in the law sanctioning an
extradition treaty between Greece
and Belgium, as amended by a
law passed in 1912.
This law also sanctioned an ex-
tradition treaty with Great Bri-
tain and, according to Insults at
torneys, and likewise has a direct
bearing on the extradition treaty
now in force between Greece and
the United States.
Hearing on the demand for In
,Sull's extradition on a warrant
charging violation of the Federal
bankruptcy act was delayed until
tomorrow owing to a technicality.
: The hearing will be before the
. court of appeals, of which the pre-
, siding justice is D. MakriS and the
members G. KatSambas, D. Spell
ades, A. Kriezis, N. Papadackis
and D. Croniaos, secretary.
American Legation Secretary
. Gade told International News
Service the State Department
. was in no hurry to submit it's in
dictment He said:
'The treaty provides ample
time. Some of the papers were
translated in the United States,
but others remain to be trans
lated here. The final decision
Is in the hands Of the Greek
court"

ACCUSED AYERS
He TOLD BUT
ONE STORY
Defense Lawyers Statement
Declares Husband Related
the Truth; Loved His Wife

SAN JOSE, Cal, Aug. % GN
s.. - Trapped and desperate,
David A. Lamson has changed
his story, according to accusa-
tions flung at the good-looking
Stanford University press execu-
tive today by irate States at
torneyS.
The prosecutors, gathering their
papers for another court appear
.ance, which will mark the OPEN
ing of the second week of the
sensational murder trial, declared
that LamSon has shifted his story
to fit the facts"
Raps States Claims
However, the 31-year-old de-
fendant, charged with the bath
tub" Staying of his pretty young
wife, Allene, in their Stanford
campus bungalow, disposed of the
States startling claims with this
calm statement, issued through
his attorneys:
II have, and have always
had, but one stOry-the truth.
And that story is that l did
not kill my wife, whom 1 loved
very dearly"
The prosecutors, signally re-
pulsed in the opening skirmish
Of the case last week, declared
that LamSon, q short time after
his wife's body was found Me-
mortal Day. told deputy sheriffs
the following story:
That as he passed the bath
room door in his flower -bordered
bungalow he saw his wife's body,
her skull fractured, in the tub,
arms and head hanging over the
side.
Doctors Testimony
That he rushed in. took her
head in his arms, and half-crazed
with grief, cried to her in endear.
ing terms and then ran to the
front door to admit visitors.
Then, the district attorneys
deputies contend, the following
testimony was offered by autopsy
surgeons:
That it would be unlikely for
blood to squirt from Mrs. Lamson's
head, we're she in the tub, to far
parts of the bathroom where
spots of blood were found.
That the upper portion of Mrs
Lamson's body. above the water
in the tub. was clean.
That the fractures of her skull
probably could not occur from
falling on the tub or its faucets,
but might have followed a fall on
a nearby wash basin.
The Newer Version
Now the States attorneys, with
cries that it has been prepared
to fit the facts" point to the
story that Lamson is reported by
his lawyers to be ready to tell on
the witness stand.
That story is this:
That he picked up his Wife'S
body from the bathroom floor
near the basin. placed it in the
tub. where it momentarily slipped
beneath the water. and then ran
to the door after putting the
arms and head over the side OF
the tub to prevent the body from
being submerged again.
In this manner, the prosecutors
charge, LamSon makes it plausible
that the bathroom walls were
spotted with blood naturally, that
the skull fractures resulted from
Mrs. Lamson crashing on the
wash basin in fainting spell
and that the upper part. of mel
body was unStained because o1
the submerging.
