 The work of the volunteer army enrolling thousands of housewives and others in the consumers coop crative division continued today with splendid success. It is ex- pected that by Friday the work will be completed.
 Today an official interpretation was made of the "Wound Stripe" of the Blue Eagle insignia.
 Interpretation of the meaning and significance of the wound Stripe" on the Blue Eagle insignia was made in a statement Issued by General T. s. Hammond, executive director of the Blue Eagle division of the MIRA. The term was em- ployed several days ago by General Hugh s. Johnson, national recovery administrator, in public speech.
 The interpretation shows that individual manufacturers and pro- ducers may obtain independent notifications of the presidents re- employment agreement in specific instances where the modihcation obtained by the applicants indus try would work unavoidable hard- ship. ,-
 The method to be followed Is identical with that employed by an individual industry when seeking an exception where no substitution has been allowed for his trade as- sociation. Such individual mQdin- cations are to be known as pro yislonal " and a white bar with that word across it must be placed upon the MIRA insignia displayed by the applicant, pending final ap- proval.
 General Hammond's statement upon the subject follows:
 The fact that a substitution has been consented to by MIRA for an industry does not deprive an tn- dividual of his remedy under Para graph IA of the presidents reem- ployment agreement. This means that even though the industry has been authorized to operate under the wage and hours provisions of their code in place of the similar provisions of the presidents agree ment there may still be peculiar reasons why the applications oi these provisions to an individual would work great and unavoid- able hardship. A petitioner In such case should follow the Identical prOce- dure for one seeking an exception where no substitution has been all lowed for his trade or industry The individual should have his petition approved by his trade as sociation and send 1t to Washing ton together with this approval He may then sign the certificate oi compliance adding to 1t the follow ing notation:
 1. To the extent of MIRA con-
 sent as announced, we have com
 piled with the presidents agree
 ment by complying with the sub
 stituted provisions of the code submitted by the ------
 trade industry: and.
 2. Except for these interim
 provisions sNregarding wages and
 hours which have been approved
 by the -------- trade assocla-
 tion.
 He may comply with all the provisions of the presidents agree ment except those which he Is petl tioning to have excepted. Upol signing the certificate of compli ance he will receive the Blu Eagle from the post office. but be fore displaying 1t, he must put
 white bar across its breast wit
 the word Provision on it. I the petition is finally approved b.
 the NRA, he may take the ba
 down. If the petition Is not ap
 proved by the MIRA, he must com
 ply with the agreement with 1t
 substituted provisions in full. | GENERAL T. s. HAMMOND,
 Executive Director Blue Eagl Division.
