ALUMINIUM MEN
DEMAND CURB
On MELONS
Industry Fails to Come to
Terms at Code Hearing;
Recess Called
BY International News Service

Continuing their fight on the
Mellon strangle hold upon the
aluminium industry, members Of
the aluminium fabricators group,
appeared before Deputy Admin
istrator Philip Kemp of the NRA
today and demanded that Mellon
controlled fabricators be placed
upon the same basis in the pro-
posed code as independents when
purchasing raw material.
The petition to Kemp was
signed by w. A. Hastings, presi-
dent of the Aluminium Products
Corporation; George D. Haskell,
president of the Bausch Machine
Tool Co., and George M. Carter,
president of the Sheet Aluminium
Corporation.
The petition read:
$50 long as production Of
virgin aluminium in the United
States is controlled directly or
indirectly by a single person,
that person shall not sell such
aluminium for a price greater
than the sum of its cost plus
a reasonable profit. A reason
able profit shall consist of a
fair return upon the capital in
vested in the facilities for pro-
ductiOn such as would attract
a prudent investor under all the
circumstances"
Kemp recessed the code hearing
at noon after the various groups
in the industry had failed to come
to terms, subject to 48-hour call,
after appointing a committee to
continue negotiations regarding
the code.
4. The independent aluminium
manufacturers charge that the
Mellon company openly evades
an order not to sell aluminium
ingots and sheets to subsidiary
companies at price less than
that being paid by independent
rabricators and manufacturers.

HULL SANCTIONS
DEBT MOVE
by International News Service
l.

BY International News Service
A determination to keep Eu-
Eope's debts to this country out
Of the sphere Of international
politics and place them on a
purely business basis prompted
President Roosevelt to have the
Treasury rather than the State
Department handle the debt con-
versations due to commence next
week.
This became known today fol
lowing the announcement by
Secretary of State Hull that
Dean Acheson, Undersecretary of
the Treasury, would have charge
of the debt discussions.
Hull himself was largely re-
sponsible for the decision to turn
the debt revision parade of the
nondefaulting European nations
over to the Treasury. He felt if
the debts were handled by the
State Department international
politics would be bound to enter
the situation.
With the debts in the hands
of Treasury financial experts
rather than State Department
diplomats, it is felt the European
nations will be in a less advan-
tageous position to push any
united demand for a dime-on-the-
dollar final settlement in line
with the Lausanne reparationS
agreement.

NRA IS DECLARED HANDICAP TO LABOR

"The seeds of FaSciSm are

the recovery program. And
the President, while not for
bidding them the right to
strike, has, by implication, set
public opinion against them in
their struggle for collective bar
gaining.
RAPS WAGE LEVEL
"AIl the NRA does is set a
minimum wage. This wage is
not high enough. It does not
raise living standards. The
problem is to spread purchaS-
ing power so that it will keep
psce with production. Now,
under the NRA, prices are go
ing up. Wages are not going
up. And the tendency, when
prices rise faster than wages,
is to lower the living standard.
That is what the NRA is
doing.
"What we need are strong
trade unions. The AdminiStra-
tiOn has missed many chances
to strengthen them. They are
the only solution. The en-
plOyers are gaining by being
released from the prohibitions
of the Sherman antitrust law.
But labor gains nothing. The
NRA did give labor a status,
but no administrative ma
chinery has been set up to
carry this into the realm Of

Up in the Great Smoky Noun

prisingly enough, greater aptitude
for their work than those who
hail from the mountains and val

that is Col. Gordon Johnston,
who has about 40 camps under
his care.
Their Spirit High
But it takes only a visit to one
of these camps to realize this
fully. I have visited about five
thus far and it is not mere en-
thusiasm to say that the spirit of
these boys, who a few months ago
walked the streets in despair, Is
high. They came at first. re-
sentful toward a strictly ordered
life, apprehenSive Of their ability
to adapt themselves to strange
existence. That phase seems to
have passed.
I came to these camps with a
Dot of statistics crammed into my
head by Government officials.
The usual things about now much
the boys weighed before and after
joining camp, the amount of food
consumed per capita, the number
of calories injected into their svs-
TENS, the number of letters they
write home each week and other
trivia.
The only important statistic
came across while visiting the
five camps was this: Less than
three out of every $50 boys took

cause of homesickness, or because
another job loomed. Barely was
