G.N.SD.-Mrs. Fay Webb Vallee
estranged wife Of Rudy Vallee,

seclusion today at the home of her
father, Police Chief c. E. Webb,
O. Santa Monica.
Through Mrs. Vallee's attorney,
Ben Cohen, it was learned that
she was in a highly nervous state
as the result of publication of her
legal action against her husband.
She petitioned the New York
supreme court to nullify separa.
ton agreement with her husband
and restrain him from divorcing
her in any State except New York.
Cohen said that Mrs. Vallee
had no statement to make other
than that contained in the legal
papers filed in New York. He ex-
planned:
"The agreement which we are
asking be set aside is so shock.
ingly inadequate that we feel
that the court will grant our
petition. We are informed that
Vallee is an immensely wealthy
man, and we assert that he told
his wife he was without funds

Recovery Chief Also Believes
Deadlock Between Ford
and NRA Will End

WARM SPRINGS, Ca. Nov. 25
GN.SD.-President Roosevelt
studied Is NRA codes, including
the controversial moving picture
fair competition pact, as he and
Recovery Administrator Hugh s.
Johnson entered a series of con-
ferences today.
Assistant Secretary of Labor
Edward F.. McGrady was with
johnson, as was Miss Frances
Robinson. the Administrators
secretary.
Arrive in Ford Car
The three arrived from Atlanta
in an automobile made by Henry
Ford-opponent of Johnson in
the bitter NRA controversy-after
the recovery chiefs car broke
down 20 miles from the Georgia
capital Johnson took quite a
lot of Joking on this account, but
laughed it off.
Presidential approval of most
of the codes brought here by
Johnson was expected after to-
days conferences.
The motion picture code has
been a matter of argument for
some time, but the fact that
Johnson brought it here was taken
to indicate he expected the Presi.
dents signature before he left to-
night or tomorrow.
Wants Deadlock Ended
johnson declared he had hopes
that the deadlock between the
NRA and Ford might be amicably
settled soon, and that Ford might
sign the automobile code. This
did not bring him to Warm
Springs, he added.
johnson apparently based his
opinion on conversations he had
with Ford when he went to De-
troit some weeks ago. He said the
NRA legal department did not
agree with the recent ruling by
Comptroller General, J. r. McCarl
that unless specific violations Of
the code by Ford were revealed,
he could bid for and receive Gov
ernment contracts. He said:
1--WE are in disagreement with
the Comptroller General and
have referred the matter to the
Attorney General"

NEW RUM CODE
ASSA|LED BY
D|ST|LLERS
Plan Held "Confiscatory" and
MeddIesome; Board
May Yield Point
BY International News Service

A challenge to the Admtnlstra'
tion's proposal to exercise wide.
spread Federal supervision over
the production and distribution of
liquor throughout the nation
loomed as a district possibility to.
day following bitter attacks on
the proposed AAA code by dis.
tillers from all parts Of the
country.
Under the tentative code, offered
as a substitute for the agreement
drafted by the distillers them,
selves, rigid control Of prices, pro.
duction, distribution, and trade
practices would be vested in a five.
man Federal alcohol control
board.
Three Points Hit
The distillers centered their at.
tacks on three salient provisions
Of the administration code. These
are:
!. The control board.
2. Limitation of production to
plant capacity as of the effec-
tive date of repeal or the effec.
tive date of the code.
8. Price regulation.
Amendment of the control board
phase was proposed by counsel for
the diSttllers to provide a code
authority Of ten representatives of
the industry, with the Federal
control board sitting in review on
the code authority's action.
Under this plan, the code au-
thority would have the right of
court appeal from the control
boards decisions.
Plan AssaiIed
Assailing the plant control pro-
vision as "confiscatory," the dis
tillerS charged such control would
destroy distillery property valued
at millions.
AS for the price section, the
distillers declared this to be un-
necessary governmental interfer-
ence in the industry.
It appeared likely the distillers
may gain q concession on the
plant control problem, with the
AAA accepting a proposed
amendment to recognize new dis
tillery plant facilities under con-
struction or under construction
contract on the effective date Of
repeal.
