COAL CODE is YET
TO BE DRAFTED

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20 tUP)
The last serious obstacle in the
way of completion of an NRA
code for the bituminous coal in
dustry was cleared away last night
when non-union operators aban-
doned their long standing policy
of refusing to recognize the UNI
ted Mine Workers and agreed to
sign a contract with the union
governing wages and hours in the
coal fields.
Recovery Administrator Hugh
S. Johnson announced the agree
ment on all essential points of
controversy and said the code it
self would be ready within three
days.
The extent to which the agree
ment might involve recognition
by the operators of the right of
the United Mine Workers to or
ganize miners in their fields was
not revealed. but the mere fact
that the operators were willing to
IndhG I'LL dsl OSHiShD "'s'
union marked a drastic change in
coal conditions.
No details of the wage and
hours compact were made publ:
and Johnson said no provisions of
the code itself could be made
available until it was completed.
But he made it clear that the only
task remaining was the formula
ton of the exact wording of the
code.
Johnson's announcement, COM
ing after a day of negotiations
during which at one time 1t ap-
peared the discussions would break
d own completely, apparently
cleared the last serious blockade
in the way of the ,NRA goal of
bringing all essential American
industry under the Blue Eagle.
Codes for the other four of the
, five kew industries-steel, oil. au-
tomobiles and enthusiastically
have been signed.

NRA Army Winning Cooperation In CITY
Paul Redfern's
Father Retains
Hope He's Living

RALEIGH, Aug. 20. (UP)-
Renewed hope that Paul Redfern
may be alive in Brazil was ex-
pressed here Monday by his
father, the Rev. DR.. Frederick G..
Redfern.
The gallant aviator has been
missing since he left Brunswick,
Ga. in August. 1927, on an air
plane flight to South America.
DR.. Redfern stopped here
Monday while en- route to Co
Iumbia. s. c., where he is con-
ncctcd with Benedict College,
from Rochester, n. Y.
FIe said that he had been in
vcstigating reports that indicate
his son is alive and may some
day return TO the United States.
Zone report" he said, was to
the effect that a certain South
American Indian tribe claims to
have ruler who came down
from heaven like a god From
another location farther west
came the story of a tribe with
a white-skinned leader who came
down from the skies like a giant
bat.
The father saw an encourage
ing sign in the fact that Red
ferns plane has never been
found.
Young Redfcrn was formerly
a prohibition scout working I'M
der NJ. o. Dunning. He was on
leave when he started his flight
to South America.

WHEAT ACREAGE CUT SOUGHT
BY WALLACE FROM OVER ONE
MILLION GROWERS IN NATION
Action Would Be Almost
Immediate, Effecting
IS Per Cent Slash
By FREDERICK c. OTHMAN

United Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Aug. 20 (UP)
American wheat farmers yes
terday were asked by their gov
eminent to reduce wheat acreage
Is per cent in the next crop year
and cotton planters were re-
quested to begin consideration of
another program for reduction
in cotton production.
Secretary of Agriculture H. A..
Wallace announced the wheat re-
duction figure would be the goal
of the farm relief administra-
ton in its efforts to balance
production with consumption by
thinking economically treacher-
Gus grain SURPRISES. Farmers
who reduce their acreage will re-
ceive payment from a processing
tax on flour and other products.
Wallace called meetings for
September 5 in Atlanta, Memp-
his and Dallas to begin drafting
a plan controlling next years
cotton crop.
The wheat plan, involving ap-
proximately 100000 growers,
would, Wallace said:
/. Reduce sowings this fall by
100000 acres.
2. Reduce the 1884 harvest
by 124,000,000 bushels.
3. Enrich farmers by $780,
100000 in cash bonuses in addi-
ton to approximately S325,O00,-
600 they will get for their crop.
If accepted by the growers the
reduction program will go into
effect almost at once, as plant
ing of winter wheat to be har-
vested in 1884 already has be-
gun in many sections.
Wallace was enthusiastic about
the wheat plan. Unlike the cot
ton plan, now in operation, 1t
will involve no crop destruction.
Prof. M. L. Wilson, big-limbed,
chief of the agricultural adjust
ment administration wheat pro-
duction section, will direct the
reduction campaign.

There was rejoicing among the Capt.
tolls mosquitoes last night. Yesterday
was the FIRST pay day In the new fiscal
year, and for the first time in quite a
spell nobody was paid for doing away
with the pests. The taxpayers have
been putting up $35,000 a year for this
purpose, and men have been riding
around squirting noxious oils into sew
stop to all Of this
But there was also some gloom. a
lot Of hard thinking. and some active
campaigning going on. In the council
Of state that fine old warrior, Gen.
Bulbo, was holding forth.
Now that they pursue us no longer"
he was saying, ut is for US to take the
offensive. We want more men. more
ships, navy equal to none. Fellow
mosquitoes. sharpen your swords"
The director of public works a fine
culex named Hickey, shook his head.
ITO cut out this appropriation, he
said, will mean that less money will
be spent. There will be less work to
have more time for devising means Of
warning upon us. Alas"
A shrewd old mosquito. the ambas-
sador at large, smiled. What 1t will
all come down to-" he said, "is this:
Our fellows will go hog wild for time
Somebody will bite Senator Glass
Senator Glass will get sore The ap-
preparation will be put In again. All
lite goes in cycles"
There were big doings down at the
headquarters Of the Young Mosquito
Communists League. They gather on
a dump and each one mounts q tin
can and makes speeches, waving his
arms and legs tall six of them wildly
all the while A manifesto by young
Horace HarGup was revealed as fol-
lows:
Comrades! We have defeated our
major capitalistic enemy, bit i. must
be war to the death. From now on our
class struggle must be redoubled, until
there is not an anopheles left who be-
lieves that he is any better than any
culeX."
In Swampoodle. however, the merri-
ment was at its height. A troop of
mosquitoes was making parade through
a window from which waited the un
mistakable odor OF malt, with a dash
Of hops.
AS they came out, they cavorted wild
ly and circled wobbling around an open
oil light marking some roadwork. They
had all been bern in a little stagnant
pool there.
'Whoopee," shouted one little culex
americanus. watch me" He made
