Mr.. President. there was never any

As ! remarked to the Senator from
Pennsylvania the other day. we have
gone beyond the cruel extremities OF
the French when they made it a cap
ital crime, punishable at the guillotine,
for any tradeSman OF individual citizen
Of the realm to discriminate in favor OF
gold and against their printing press
currency. We have gone beyond that,
We have said that no man may have
his gold under penalty of 10 years in
the penitentiary or $4,000 fine.
An expansion of the currency? Fed

IRON HAND TO RULE GU
F0yd'S Lone Battle Sets
 Precedent For His Lone
 Controversy With NRA

DETROIT. Mich, Sept. 14.-The controversy that began to simmer in the first uncertainty as to Henry Fords reception of the MIRA code centered about an industrial ist accustomed to going it alone"
 For it was Ford who years ago fought through to finish the court battle over the "Selden pat ents," and won freedom from payment of fees on the patents.
 Again he played lone hand in his battle with New York in- terests
 Reflected Wall Street Terms
 In 1921, it was Ford who turned down the terms of Wall Street" for much-needed financial assis- tance. To realize on funds tied up in inventory, he started his factory at top speed and notified his dealers to dispose of the flow of trucks, tractors and automo- piles or surrender their agencies.
 He did not stop until he had built his own system of steel mills, glass factories, steamships, rail- road and other enterprises to supply his raw materials and dis tribute his product.
 Opposed UniOnizatiOn
 Similarly, he always has resist ed unionization of his employees, claiming his own labor policies gave his workers more than they could gain through a union.
 Gse first propounded his econo- mic philosophy of higher wages and lower prices mean greater buying power-more customers" in 1914 with announcement of the $5 minimum day wage, a wage in that day believed by many indus trialists to be ruinous.
 The five-day week followed in 1926, with the explanation that workers would consume more if they had more leisure.
 Raised Wages in 1929
 And in 1929, when many em- ployers were considering wage cuts, Ford announced at White House conference that the thing to do was to raise wages. He in- creased the minimum day wage to ST. But the length of the depres- sion eventually forced his wage below the 1914 minimum of $5.
 As industry and the public wait ed to see whether Ford would con- ply with General Johnson's insist ent plea that he sign the code, there came from sources close to Ford information that he regard ed the code as one that he would have to Tive down to" in the matter of wages.
 The explanation given was that, while the code provides for a minimum wage of 43 cents hourly for a 35-hour week, Ford is pay ing his 42,OO0 employees at the River Rogue plant a minimum of 50 cents per hour for 40 hours.
 But General Johnson contended that that "only way you can get people to get them together IS to get them to agree to act to- geher."

RESIGNATION OF STEEL GEAR IS GREAT SURPRISE
Robert P. Lamont Steps Out of Office-Gives
 His Explanation

NEW YORK, Sept. 14-Charles M Schwab is mentioned as the probable successor to Robert P. Lamont, steel czar, who stepped out late yesterday with the dec laration that Government regula- tion of industry has begun and mo one knows how far it may go. !"
 Lamont's resignation as Presi- dent of the American Iron and Steel Institute at a $10O,000 yearly salary, came as a surprise to all but inside quarters.
 Rumors Ofen Rife
 Rumors of the resignation have often been rife but nothing ever came of them.
 The letter of resignation clearly indicated lack of sympathy with MIRA.
 Institute officials said the re- signation was not a protest against the recently adopted code.
 Lamont's Letter
 Lamont's letter said:
 From now on, or for an in- definite period, the principal ac- tivities of the Iron and Steel In- stitute and obligations of industry will be carried on under code, properly carried out and reported to be an opportunity of the Gov ernment for constructive forward looking studies of plans for in dustry.
