asked for the original plane specifically
and had proposed to show whatever
exhibit they sent in conjunction with
models of the Langley airdromes, max

The Wrights, apparently believing
this robbed them of proper credit for
their achievement, never replied to WAL

Langley airdrome, characterizing it as

NRA OIL CODE
FAILS TO ORDER
PRICE FIXING
Major Companies Program
Also Hit in Decision
Against Licensing.
BY MARSHALL M'NEIL
Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON. Aug. 1.-The oil
states may produce as much oil as
they care to under the petroleum
production code drafted by NRA.
But the federal government. pro-
tecting all states, will step in and
tell them how much they can send
across their borders.
These states will learn from an
unbiased federal agency the facts
regarding national production and
consumption. They may be guided
by them or not.
If they produce more oil than they
can consume at home or export un-
der federal regulation. they will be
permitted 10 stew in their own OIL
Thus Hugh johnson, recovery ad-
ministrator. explained the produc-
ton code to sweltering oil men gath
cred in the ornate flag-draped
United States Chamber of Com
merce auditorium.
Oil Men to Talk Tonight
Tonight the oil men will be
given a chance to talk; to protest
or acclaim the NRA plan for regu-
lating their industry.
The NRA oil code was blow to
the program of the American Pc
troleum Institute. which is domi-
mated by the ma jor companies, fol-
it contained no provisions for price
fixing or licensing, those items
that Harry Sinclair is reported to
have wanted so badly.
1t does not provide for regulation
of petroleum production from
above, from Washington. except
where oil enters into interstate
commerce. 1t does not require that
the wildcatter in Texas, Oklahoma
or California has to come to Wash
ington and say. Please. Mr.. Presi-
dent, may 1 dig well?'
Lease System Is Considered
And of particular Importance to
motorists everywhere it is silent on
the lease and agency" system
whereby major companies control
filling stations to the detriment, SO
they claim, of the independent pro-
ducers, refinerS and marketers.
But General Johnson explained
this: The case for and against the
lease and agency" system is before
the federal trade commission. The
President will ask that report be
made within thirty days. If the
trade commission finds the system
is an unfair trade practice, it will
be outlawed without NRA STEP
ping in.
If it approves the system, the oil
code drafters may decide on their
own whether to include any men,
ton of it.
Forty Hour Week Provided
AS to labor. the code carries out
the agreement reported last week
For reduction, refining, drilling
and pipe line operations. forty
hour week for clerical employees and
thirty-six hours for othess. with
the right to work a maximum OF
forty hours per week for any six
week period within any twenty-six-
week period. but not more than
eight hours a day Minimum rates
of pay have a regional spread of
from As TO 55 cents per hour.
