Roosevelt Faces
Ford Puzzle
BY international News Service

BY International News Service
Henry Ford's recalcitrancy to
the NRA was the chief problem
confronting President Roosevelt
today.
Ford refused to take any part
in the code for the automobile
industry, which became effective
today, and has kept to himself
what course he intends to pursue.
His attitude has given Mr..
Roosevelt considerable concern.
Just before he left his New York
estate for his cruise here he in
structed Administrator Hugh S.
Johnson to submit a report on
the Ford case. But Johnson he'd
little to report. The industry's
code was drafted by the National
Chamber of Commerce, Of which
Ford Motor Company is not a
member.
If Ford were paying extremely
low wages, one official explained,
his case would not be as thorny
as it now appears, but he is pay
ing wages above those prescribed
in the code, while his employees
work five hours over the codes
working week.
Reports received here said Ford
objects to the codes collective
bargaining provisions, which would
permit his employees to organize.
He is also said to oppose the codes
governing board, which would in
clude representatives Of his COM
petitors.

TRAGEDY
LAID To WING

CURTIS FIELD, GLENVIEW,
ILL.,, Sept. 5 G.N.SD.-Investiga-
tors blame a torn wing fabric
today for the crash that killed
Florence Klingensmith, 26, of
Minneapolis, as she gunned her
plane at 220 miles an hour in
the final free-for-all speed
classic of the international Air
Races.
The aviatrix had completed
three e-fourths Of the 100 mile
closed course and was in fourth
place when the 10000 spectators
saw a piece Of the right wing
fabric tear loose. Sensing the
danger, she zoomed her racing
ship upward and headed south
of the field, the plane crashd in
ravine a mile and a half away.
Her body was thrown clear of
the wreckage. Investigators found
that she apparently had tried to
use her parachute, but the plane
crashed too soon.

record for land planes at an

'FORD'S MOVE,'
SHARP REPLY
Of JOHNSON
NRA Chief Declares Magnate
Can Get Blue Eagle Only
BY Signing the Code
CHICAGO, Sept. 5 G.N.S).
ITS Henry FOrd's move"


Gen. Hugh Johnson, NRA ad-
ministrator, gave that reply here
today to International News Serv-
ice when questioned about the
motor magnate's refusal to join
the NRA movement.
In his suite at the Drake Hotel,
the NRA director state emphati-
cally that Ford will not get the
Blue Eagle until he files the
certificate Of compliance along
with other members of the auto
mobile industry.
Warns of Violation
Asked if the Government planned
intervention to bring the Detroit
automobile maker into the fold,
General johnson asserted:
"There's one thing Mr.. Ford
might do which would neceSsi-
tate enforcement, and that
would be his refusal to bargain
with employees"
The general pointed out that
section Ia Of the national indus
trial recovery act provides such a
privilege upon the part of work
men. General johnson said:
"If he violates that section Of
the act, we will be forced to take
enforcement measures"
what steps might be taken?"
Asked this, johnson stated that
one method that might be en-
ployed would be the refusal of the
United States Government to
grant Ford a license for interstate
commerce.
Sees Ban on Ford Cars
The NRA administrator, who
plans to leave here by plane for
Washington today, also declared
that if Henry Ford does not come
into the NRA, the United States
Government will not buy any
more of his cars. He said:
"The States also will not buy
any more of his cars, and Mr..
Ford will not sell many cars"
General Johnson was quick to
say, however, that he is satisfied
with the wages of the Ford
workers, and also the hours.

COAL CODE TALK
WATTS RETURN
Of JOHNSON
Farley Late Today Is Hope AS
NRA Puts Ford Case Aside .
for RooSeveIt'S Eye
By International News Service

BY International News Service
A new conference Of the btu
minous coal code was ordered to-
day by National Recovery Admin
istration officials as indications
grew that President Roosevelt Will
deal with the case of Henry Ford,
the automobile manufacturer.
The 10 representatives Of coal
operators and union labor, who
had been negotiating on the coal
code, were asked to meet Brig.
Gen. Hugh S. Johnson, admins
traitor, upon his return to Wash
ington late in the day.
Silence on Ford Case
A wall of silence enveloped the
Ford case. The automobile code
to which Ford did not subscribe
became effective today.
interpretations differed as to
whether Ford became subject to a
$500 day fine today if he is not
complying with the code or
whether he has until midnight to
make a decision.
The Ford plants, according to
word received here, are paying
wages and operating hours in
such a manner that he can claim
compliance with the code.
While the automobile code pro-
vides for a 35-hour week, and the
Ford plants are said to be on
4O-hour basis, the cade allows
manufacturers to WORK their men
48 hours a week if the 35-hour
average is reached over a period
Of time.
May Be Complying
Thus Ford may be actually
complying or exceeding the hours
and wage terms of the code. But
under the code he would still be
required to furnish statistics to
the National Automobile Chamber
Of Commerce.
Meetings of the industrial and
labor advisory boards were slated
tomorrow to consider the dispute
between nonunion manufacturers
and organized labor over inter
probation of the recovery law.
Officials said that every effort
would be made to bring about a
new truce between industry and
labor because of the threat the
dispute holds for the success of
the NRA.
The issue between nonunion in
dustry and organized labor was
clarified by Johnson's speech in
Chicago and by statement Of in-
dustrial and labor leaders.
Buy Drive Set
The buying campaign of the
NRA begins September 20 with
every official urging the public
to start buying Immediately. Un-
less the public supports manufac-
turers who are forced to bear
higher costs, the entire movement
will fail, Johnson warned his
Chicago audience.
Official estimates Of the result
Of the Blue Eagle campaign were
lacking. But those in charge ex-
pressed the belief that more than
80 per cent of employers had sub
scribed to the Presidents blanket
agreement, and some 30,00O,O90
consumers had pledged their CO.

2 Entries Unreported; Settle
Lands After Covering 700
Miles, Greatest Distance

CHICAGO, Sept. s G.N.sO.
Two Of the six entries in the
James Gordon Bennett balloon
races which began here Saturday
were still unreported today after
Lieut.. Comdr. T. G. w. Settle
brought his United States Navy
bag down II miles east Of New
Haven, Conn.
Officials of the event here ex-
pressed belief that the two con-
testants to be heard from-the
other American balloon, piloted
by Ward T. Van Orman. and the
Polish entry-were still aloft.
One Of the two bags believed to
be continuing eastward was sighted
over Ottawa, Canada, late last
night. 1t was too high to distin-
guish it's markings.
Settles balloon had flown ap-
proximately 700 miles, greater
distance than the other three
bags which have landed thus far.
Settle won the 1888 races in
Switzerland last year.
Distances covered by the other
contestants we're: French, at
Homer, Mich, 145 miles; German,
Kingston, Mich, 245 miles, and
Belgian, Roscommon, Mich, 275
miles.
