DOUBT CODE
FOR PAPERS

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 2. U.P)-
Freedom OF the press, the news
paper code and NRA in relation
to libel laws were subjects under
discussion at todays session OF the
California Press association busi-
ness convention here.
Speakers OF the day were John
A. McGillvary, Sacramento attor-
ney; G. P. Button, publisher OF the
Tracy Press; John B. Long, general
manager, California Newspaper
Publishers association; Harry s.
Webster, manager OF the San Ber-
nardino Sun and Telegram and
Dan l.. Beebe, president, California
Newspaper Publishers association.
Justis F.. Cramer, vice president
of the California Press association,
was a Friday afternoon speaker.
Cramer said he believed it eX-
tremely doubtful it there ever
would be an effective newspaper
code.
California newspapers have op-
posed any idea OF newspaper
code because they are afraid OF
the effect on freedom of the press"
Cramer declared. Any limitation on
freedom of the press would re-
suit in constant controversy.
TN efforts to submit a satls-
factory code to washington, para
graphs have been inserted establish
ing freedom, and each time they nave
been rejected. The administration
has not mipAe It's attitude sutfic-
iently clear Furthermore, Washing
ton doesn't understand that met
ropolitan newspapers, and smaller
publications, can never be brought
under the same code"

ACCEPT FORD
BID ON CARS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2. U.P -
A long controversy over the pur-
chase of trucks for the Civilian
Conservation Corps was settled to-
Gay in favor of Ford dealer, whose
bid was held up because of a presi-
Dental order barring non-NRA
manufacturers from government
business.
Protest against the Ford dealers
bid was lodged by Hugh S. john
son, recovery administrator He
conceded that the dealer flew the
blue eagle but that the Ford Motor
company'S failure to sign the auto
mobile code made it ineligible for
government business under the
Presidents order. J. r. McCarl,
comptroller general, held that Sc
long as the Ford company complied
with the provisions of the code Its
signature thereto was immaterial
johnson countered that the bid
violated the code, because il was
below the list price. McCarl ther
ruled that such an objection was
not proper subject for the con-
sideration Of those who received
the bids.
Secretary of Agriculture Wallace
N charge of the purchase, accord
ingly announced that on the ad-
/ vice of McCarl las the best way tc
secure compliance with the Presl-
dents recovery program" the bid
of the Ford dealer would be ac-
cepted. He said Johnson concurred
n this decision. The bid was made
by tie Northwest Motor Co., al
1857 per unit.

Approval OF the commission was
also given TO another county pro-
ject which called for work to be
done on the county fair grounds
consisting OF necessary repairs tc
buildings and the completion OF

will give work to eight men for
period of two months.
City Projects Submitted
Ell Centre through it's city en-
gineer Philip w. Knights, SUBJ
mitted three projects which were
approved by the commission.
The first of these was for i'm
provements at the city water plant
consisting CT new basins, fencing
about the basins as a protective
measure and general overhauling
of the entire plant. Estimated cost
of this project is S9725.12.
The second local project ap-
proved was general repairs to the
city streets and sidewalks, clean
up OF alleys and removal of fire
hazards while the third was for
the grading and leveling Of the
city parks and the replacing OF
the present water systems.
Imperial submitted two projects
both of which were given the
commissions approval for sub
mission to the state board.
A community center estimated to
cost in the neighborhood of $4,000
and $500 feet OF new water main
to replace the old and inadequate
water service now in that city. Both
of these were approved by the
board.
The public utility district OF
Heber submitted its project for a
water system which was approved
Calexico's projects consisted OF
contemplated repairs to city side
walks and curbs at an estimated
total of $1246, and library work
to repair books in the city library
the latter cost estimated to be
about $3.50. These were approved
by the commission.
Calipatria submitted as its pro-
iect a new combination city hall
fire department and city Jail. The
building is to be OF steel and
concrete and the estimated cost
was set at S24,780. This also was
approved and included with the
other projects for submission to
the state board.
1t is understood in connection
with these projects that the city
offering projects for inclusion in
the CWA program must, If pos
sible, Stipulate that at least one
quarter OF the amount necessary
for the materials is to be raised
by the city itself, the CWA being
chiefly concerned in supplying the
necessary money for the labor as
it is a movement to create new
jobs to relieve the unemployment
situation. Wherever it was possible
to do this, such amounts were
stipulated in the projects sub
mitted last night.
The commission expects to hold
ether meetings next week at which
further projects are to be sub
mitted both from the country and
other valley cities for approval
and recommendation to the state
board.

PRESIDENT To
SEEK REFORM
FOR STOCKS
C&gess To Be Asked For
Measures To Control Present
Exchange Practices.
TO CURB TAX DODCING
Senate Committee Studies Way
To Prevent Avoidance OF In
come Tax Payments.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2. U.P) =
President Roosevelt was revealed
today to have intervened in the
senate stock market investigation to
obtain definite recommendations
for reform of stock exchange prac-
tices for submission to congress
next month. Congress convenes
January 3.
The President also has informed
the senate committee, the United
Press was told, that he desires a
study to be made of the federal
securities act.
Investment bankers have COM
planned against the stringency Of
the regulations. The President
wants to know whether the act ac-
tually would be an obstacle to pro-
vision of long-jerm capital for le-
gitimate business and industry.
WASHINGTON, Dec. Q. W.P) -
Senate revelations of boom time
and depression stock market prac-
tices will lead to recommendations
for federal control of the exchanges
snd supervision of their operations,
Chairman Fletcher of the stock
market committee, said today.
Fletcher revealed also that the
house ways and means committee
would receive Monday a detailed
report on tax law reforms to pre-
vent further income tax avoidance
such as was shown to have been
accomplished by J. P. Morgan, Otto
H. Kahn and others.
A joint congressional committee
on internal revenue has been MAX
ing study of the administrative
loopholes through which Morgan
and others passed without taxation.
The senate banking and currency
committee and the house ways and
means committee will cooperate,
Fletcher said, in drafting remedial
legislation.
TIE committee hopes to discour-
age or prevent pool operations and
to prevent directors or officials OF
corporations and banks from deal
ing in stocks of their own institu-
tions.
Quotes BrandelS
Fletcher has circulated to con =
mittee members the argument o.
Associate Justice Brandeis of the
supreme court in which he con-
tends congress has unlimited power
to exercise regulative authority.
Brandeis' argument was written 20
years ago in volume called Other
Peoples Money" 1t was based on
the revelations OF the Pujo "moneT
trust" Investigations in which the
late j. P. Morgan, Sr., and others
appeared before a house committee
Brandeis argued that while con-
gress was not granted the power to
regulate state banks and other in
stitutions except in respect to in
terstate commerce, sit may do so
indirectly by virtue either OF its
control of the mail privilege or
through the taxing power. Congress
may, in its reasonable discretion,
deny the use of the mails to any
business which is conducted under
conditions deemed by congress to
be injurious to the public welfare"
The Chase National bank inquiry
will be resumed for a day or so
next week and the senate commit
tee tken probably will recess until
December 18 when investigation OF
Detroit hanks is scheduled

BRAZIL NEXT

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil,
Dec. 2. U.P)-Colonel Lindbergh

that he is planning to leave
Bathurst, Gambia, for flight
across the South AtIatltic to
Natal, Brazil, at daybreak to-
morrow.
BATHURST, GAMBIA, British
Africa, Dec. 2. U.H - Col. Charles
A. Lindbergh fuelled his seaplane
for a long flight today.
Lindbergh declined to say what
his next destination would be. 1t
was believed that he might start
for Natal, Brazil, at dawn tomor-
row.
RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil, Dec
2. U.p)-Permission has been asked
of the government for Col. and Mrs
Charles A. Lindbergh to fly over
Brazilian territory, according to re-
liable information today.
The same informantS believed,
though there was no official word
that the daring American flyers
might start at any time.
They would face flight of 1900
miles across the South Atlantic
from Bathurst, Gambia, little Brit
ish port on the west African coast,
to Natal, Brazil.
The foreign office here said 1t
had no information regarding TIE
Lindbergh's plans. Lindbergh HIM
self has emphasized all along the
uncertainty of his itinerary.
A flight across the south Allan
tic from Bathurst would take the
American flyers over the equator
to the southern half of the world on
their remarkable air tour, now IN
its fifth month. They left New
York July 10, to explore possiblli-
ties for commercial airplane routes
across the north Atlantic.
They passed over the Arctic CIR
Gle and now are in the tropics,
having gone via Labrador, Green
land, Iceland, Europe and mid-At-
lantic Azores islands, and southern
Atlantic coastal island groups anu
the African continent.

Especial staying on the
gold is a tough job unless ev-
erybody is on it. If you are on
the gold and the rest of the
boys are not why you change
your money into theirs, then
demand it in gold.
Now France is on the gold and
are cuckoo. She reads every
morning how many millions in
gold was shipped out the day
before Gust like we used to do
before we went off the gold
and it's gradually driving them
"nuts''. So it looks like every
body has either got to be on it
or off of it. You can't play
solo.

~ What AY Are 0l|I YOU A Missing?

If you are among those who are trying to get along without tele- phone service, a number of things are likely happening that may di- rectly influence the welfare of yourself and family.
 You are probably missing the pleasant, informal gatherings that are arranged by telephone. Or, if there are children in the home, they no doubt feel cut off from the happy contacts that the telephone affords.
 Being without a telephone also deprives you of the means of call ing the doctor quickly, or getting help in case of fire or other emer- gencies. In short, the home with out a telephone today is isolated.
