JOHNSON BARS
FUND DRIVES

Certain State boards under the
NRA appeared likely today to be
brought to a sharp halt in un-
authorized solicitation Of funds
from employers.
Gen. Hugh S. johnson is said
to have taken the attitude that
these boards had no work and
no functions except as he gives
it to them, and as yet he has
not called upon them for help.
One instance that has come
to light involves the State board
of a New England State. which
has circularized employers there
asking for funds. The letter,
signed by a prominent banker
and by two other members of
a finance committee" reads in
part:
"NO large contributions are
being asked. No pressure for
contributions is being brought.
However, proper recognition
will be made to contributors.
Determine your own con-
tribution. A IS contribution
from q small employer will
be as much appreciated as
$1OO from q large employer"

winds which prevailed and the
fact that a third balloon landed

Rigid Rule Proposed
For Coal Mines
International News Service

Rigid government control was
proposed today by the NRA as the
salvation of the farflung bitumi-
nous coal industry.
The plan-more far-reaching
than any yet provided in recov-
cry codes-is contained in the
code laid before the industry for
approval by National Recovery
Administrator Hugh S. johnson.
Despite clouds of opposition to
many provisions of the NRA code,
Johnson expected to obtain a sub
stantial agreement before a code
is proclaimed by the President.
After announcing he would &C.
cept modification proposals up to
p. m. tomorrow, johnson called
a public hearing for Monday aft
ernoon to air grievances.
johnson conceded coal prices
would have to rise to sustain the
code. He said he would stand

so per cent increase would be

SEEM FOR COAL
UNDER CODE
Way Paved for Drastic Change
If Found Necessary to End
Chaotic Conditions
Rv International News Service


The bituminous coal code, char
acterized by National Recovery
Administrator Hugh S. Johnson
as the most comprehensive code
yet prepared, is expected virtually
to revolutionize the vast indus
try.
The code not only provides for
control of production prices, and
labor disputes, but paves the way
for further drastic changes If
found necessary to end the cha
otic condition in the industry.
Under the code operators may
employ men 80 hours week for
a six-month period and 40 hours
a week for the next six months.
Or, as an alternative, they can
operate mines on a straight 36-
hour schedule during the entire
year.
Exceptions Provided
Exceptions from the working
hours were provided for super
visors, clerks, technicians and a
small number required to remain
on duty while men are entering
or leaving the mines.
If at any time a majority OF
unemployed workers want to share
work with other miners, or a ma
jority of employed workers ex-
press a desire to share work, an
equalization shall be made through
conference or district boards.
The labor provisions of the re
covery act, recognizing the right
of workers to organize, were
specified. Miners shall have the
right to a checkweighman ol
their own choosing, with
further exception where wage:
are based on other than actua
weights either by mutual agree
ment or because of physical con
ditions.
Other Requirements.

matter of agreement. Workers
cannot be required to live ir

The NRA agreed to begin al
investigation and report before
November 80 on the practicabilit!
of shortening work hours, pos
sibly to straight 80, 80, or 3!

SPAIN 'SCAB|NET
RESIGNS

MADRID, Sept. 8 GN.sO.-
Spain was plunged into new
political crisis today with the
resignation of the cabinet headed
by Premier Manuel Azana.
The resignation of Azana and
his entire cabinet was handed to
President Nicete Alcala zamora
after a day of hectic negotiations
between the political parties.
Downfall of the Azana cabinet
was directly traceable to the elec-
tions held on Sunday for the tri-
bunal of constitutional guaran-
tees, in which radical candidates
won a smashing victory over
nominees put up by the govern
ment coalition.
Azana made strenuous efforts
to reform his cabinet on the basis
of a coalition of all parties, but
the radicals declined to COM
