ON GRAZING FEES.
Senator Carey Sees Organ.
lied Move Against ResoIu-
tion for Lower Rates.

By the Associated Press.
Senator Carey, Republican, Wyoming,
yesterday told newspaper men he be-
lieved the Department of Agriculture
or the Forest Service was encouraging
educational authorities to come to
Washington and protest against low
fees for grazing stock on forest lands,
which are sought in q resolution by
him and Senator Steiwer, Republican,
Oregon.
The resolution of the two Senators
seeks to continue through 1888 the
half-rate fees set up for 1882 by an
order of Secretary Hyde. which fol-
lowed introduction of a similar reso-
Republican, Idaho, last year.
Fees Total 100000.
The fees aggregate annually about
100000 at the regular rates, rang
ing from cents per head per month
for sheep to IA cents per month per
head for cattle. States receive IS per
cent of the payments for their school
funds.
THE department is trying to ask that
more so the schools can get $3.50, ,000,"
Carey said II have never received a
protest from anybody in my State
about lowering the rates, or from the
school officials.
Accuses Department.
ut is my opinion that these people
(school officials) are being encouraged
to come here by the department"
His comment came after learning

ing .waged on the House side by Repre-

NRA 'STOPLOSS'
RETAIL PLAN
UNDER FIRE
BY international News Service

BY International News Service
All the high officials of the
NRA were pondering today the
problem of whether to eliminate
the "stop-loss" provisions of the
master retail code.
The problem was put up to
them last night at a special meet
ing conducted by Recovery Admin
aStrator Hugh S. Johnson.
Most of the practical" men in
the NRA believe the Stop-loSs
method of preventing cut-throat
prace competition is safe
method. johnson himself is one
Of these practical" men.
Substitute Proposed
At the meeting the practical"
men were forced to give careful
consideration Of the "theoretical'
economists of the NRA, a unit
planted in the research and plan
ming division to study mathemat1-
callJ all the economics involved in
important code provisions.
This mathematical economist
unit opposes the "stop-loss' pro-
visions on the ground that it is a
form of retail price-fixing that can
result only in driving prices so far
above public purchasing power
that indefinite initiation" will be
required to save most merchants
from bankruptcy.
Last week it was disclosed that
the economists had devised sub
Stitute formula for preventing cut
throat competition and the dis
aStrous price wars that have
ruined many merchants in recent
years.
"LOs Leader" Sales
This substitute plan would per-
nit Gloss leader" sales in all mer-
chandise except basic staples, like
sugar.
Instead of permitting a cut
throat merchant to limit the sale
of "loss leader" articles, all limita-
tions on such purchases would be
forbidden. Customers could not
be restricted to, Il say, six bars OF
soap or one package or one dress.
And even retail competitors
would be permitted to make pur-
chases in any amount they de-
sired.
Thus, if prices were set too low
in Gloss leader" sale, the cut
throat merchants competitors
could come in and buy out all the
articles. .',

PAY CUTS SEEN
RELIEF BLOW

The dismissals and the salary
slashes of Government employees
will seriously cripple the relief of
unemployed in washington this
winter, it has been predicted by
Sidney F. Taliaferro, chairman OF
the District Emergency Relief
Committee.
The IS per cent pay cut in
Federal payrolls, he believes, more
than offsets gains in employment
and wages made under the NRA,
and is responsible for the placing
on relief rolls of the more than
1900 persons now destitute.
Although appropriations are linn
tied to $4,000 week, the pres
ent relief expenditures have been
increased to $4,000 weekly. Talia-
ferro said:
