ALL hands listen with their
n minds on the fight to come.
They believe-though Johnson
denies it-that the decision on this
code will indicate whether Amer
lea will have a standard 80, 80, &c
or 40-hour working week and what
minimum wages will be like. Mill
owners drone through long papers,
insisting that 40 hours and SO or
S11 are the best they can do unless
many of them are to be ruined.
Labor argues that industry has
been working less than 30 hours,
that the pool Of 100000 unem-
ployed must he cleaned out and
that no one can say SO is de.

President William D. Anderson of
the big Bib Manufacturing Co,

in southern mill towns. In one
such town. he said, people had de-
livered 5S03 punches of flowers to
convalescents within a year. and
5911 trays Of foods to invalids.

existed only on farms. He was

JUAREZ, Mexico, July c.

States proxy marriage law, an
OutgroWth Of the easy divorces
that have attracted customers
from all over the world.
Proxy marriages for persons
divorced in Juarez constitute a
lucrative sideline for lawyers.
The divorce costs the client
$500 and the proxy marriage $75.
The attorney collects both ways.
Popularity Of the Juarez proxy
marriage is r.ade possible Ey
stringent divorce laws in other
countries.
"In Argentina, for example,
there is no complete divorce
only legal separation" explains
Attorney Salvador Franco Uria@.
"Argentina couples who wans
Il complete divorce so that they
may marry again, cannot obtain
one in Argentina. SO they take
advantage Of the Chihuahua law,
throw off the old mate, take on
new one, and everything is per-
fectly legal, since Mexican laws
are recognized throughout Latin
America. Brazil also sends Gus

COMMODITY PRICE DROP
is 9 PER CENT FOR YEAR

BY the Associated Press.
Wholesale commodity prices, as meas
ured by the index Of the National Fer
tilizer Association, declined about per
cent during the year, which change is
smaller than either OF the two preced-
ing years.
The latest index, based on represent
ing l926-28 prices as 100, now stands
at 59.S as compared with 65 a year ago.
The last As days have witnessed a
drastic decline in prices more than
sufficient to wipe out gains scored In
July, August and September. Leading
the decline were important farm prod
ucts, basic raw materials and semi
manufactured articles. With the excep-
ton Ci raw silk, sodium nitrate, but
ter, eggs and coffee, there were no i'm
portant price advances during the
period.
