JOHNSON PLANS
To SAFEGUARD
CONSUMERS
Prices Must Not 0utrun
Wages, He Insists; Indus
tries Submitting Codes

The job of bringing the btu
minous coal industry under the
national recovery act has been un-
dertaken personally by Hugh s.
Johnson, administrator, it was re-
vealed today.
The decision of johnson to
assume the task, an associate
said, springs from the fact that
all efforts to bring agreement in
the coal industry in the past have
failed.
Having already appealed to the
operators to organize, fix mini
mum wages in cooperation with
labor, and limit hours of work,
Johnson plans further conferences
soon.
Thus far the Pittsburgh Coal
Company, known as a Mellon
Company, and the Consolidated
Coal Company, known as Rocke-
feller company-two of the larg-
est in the field-have rejected
proposals for organization of the
industry.
Fear UniOniZatiOn
Their opposition dates from the
beginning of a fight for enact
ment of legislation by Congress
to bring order in the coal fields.
It is said to be based partly upon
a belief that cooperation under
the Recovery Act will open the
door to complete unionization Of
the industry.
While Johnson has assured la
Dor unions of a square deal, he
holds that unionization of the
bituminous coal fields will not
necessarily follow action under
the recovery act.
Another stumbling block is said
to be the decision of the Supreme
Court upholding the formation Of
a gigantic selling agency by coal
operators in several States in the
bituminous field. This, some op-
orators hold, offers the chance Of
combination to cure many Of the
industry'S ill.
Some congressional advocates
of concerted action by coal op-
orators and labor have informed
operators that unless they form q
code of fair competition, Presi-
dent Roosevelt will be asked to
invoke the licensing provisions Of
the law.
The first proposal that Presi-
dent Roosevelt use the power
given him under the industrial
recovery act to limit imports was
made today by Representative
Turpin RD of Pennsylvania,
whose district lies in the anthra-
cite field.
Declaring that Russian imports
are demoralizing the anthracite
industry, he wrote letter to the
President asking an embargo.
The President, however, cannot
take this action until the indus
try is organized under the act
and it is shown that imports are
menacing the price increas s
sought by the legislation.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, June %
G.N.SO-"Al" Smith, self termed
graduate of Fulton fish market"
amid the traditional pomp and
splendor of the 297th Harvard
University commencement, today
received an honorary degree OF
doctor of laws.
"A master of State admins
tratiOn as shown by his record
as Governor of New York; a
statesman with the courage to
proclaim unpopular opinions in
a time of trouble"
Such was the citation of for
mer Gov. Alfred Emanuel Smith
by President A. Lawrence Lowell
Of Harvard, closing his career as
a university head by bestowing II
honorary degrees and 2,148 de-
greeS in course.
Andrew de Laboulaye, French
ambassador to the United States;
Sir Ronald Charles Lindsay, Brit
iSh ambassador to the United
States; Lewis William Douglas,
director of the Federal budget,
and Gov. Wilbur L. Cross, OF
Connecticut, were in the group
receiving honorary degrees.
Cap Smith was the center OF
attraction at the exercises. He
had put aside the cigar and the
Brown derby for dignity and
topper.
Like the "happy warrior" OF
the 1928 presidential campaign

ernor of Connecticut and the
budget director we're made doc

BANK RECEIVER
FORUM 'SP PLEA

how many of those voting were
depositors of the bank, one of
the forums officials stated today.

REPEAL Of DRY
LAW IN YEAR
FORECAST
States Where Senators Voted
for Prohibition Seen Join
ing Repeal Parade

Eighteen States, spread fanWlse
from the Atlantic to the Pacific
today became the battle-ground for
prohibition repeal as liberal lead
ers in the Capitol predicted VIC
tory within one year.
The test States appeared to be
Vermont, Maryland, Virginia
west Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky,
Mississippi, Arkansas, T x a s.
Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska
South Dakota, Minnesota, Colo
RADIO, Utah, Idaho, and Oregon.
These were the States whose
Senators either divided on the
repeal issue or voted solldly
against it when the proposed
Twenth-first Amendment was sub
mitted to the Nation last Feb
ruary.
The Liberals must win six OF
these States-along with 16 in
which both Senators voted for
repeal-to get the Eighteenth
Amendment out Of the Constitu-
tion.
Senate Vote a Criterion.
The Senate repeal vote be-
came a criterion on the outcome
of the prohibition war by the
result in the first IA States to
ratify the proposed new amend
ment. In the tests to date, the
vets won easily while the drys
put up stiff opposition in States
where the senatorial vote was
divided or against repeal.
The IA States to ratify repeal
have a population of about 49,
100000, or 81 per cent of the
nations total population. They
cover 547,869 square miles, or
about 18 per cent Of the nations
area. Consequently, more than
one-third of the people living in
more than one-sixth of the ma
tion have voted for repeal.
In II of these States the Sena-
tors had voted solidly against
prohibition. In two-Indiana
and Delaware-they divided on
the issue, but the repealists won
anyway. In Iowa both Senators
voted dry-so the repeal victory
there came as a smashing blow
to the prohibitionists.
The repealists can get prohibi-
tion out of the Constitution with.
out winning another State in
which both Senators voted dry.
This merely would yield Colo
RADIO, Idaho, Kansas, Nebraska,
and Oklahoma to the drys. It
would leave the repeal battel in
Arkansas. Kentucky. Maryland,
Minnesota, Mississippi, Ohio, Ore
gon, South Dakota, Texas, Utah,
Vermont, Virginia and West Vir-
ginia.
The repeal victory in Iowa,
however, heartened the liberals to
fight for the so-called bone dry
States. The repealists believed
Iowa sentiment would be reflected
in her neighboring States of
Minnesota, South Dakota, and
Nebraska. It may even be felt
in bone-dry Kansas.
The repealists expressed no
doubt about the results in those
States where both Senators
opposed prohibition. They pre-
dicted victory in all such States,
despite the fact that some lie
within the dry South.

WHEAT NATIONS
PLEDGE HELP

GEOLOGICAL MUSEUM, LON
DON, June % G.N.SD.-Although
formal wheat negotiations are
temporarily shelved, Henry Nor
genthau, Sr., of the United
States, has extracted verbal
promises from several wheat i'm
porting nations to reduce wheat
tariff barriers, International
News Service learned today.
Under the terms of the prom
ises Morgenthau has obtained,
the import barriers will be re-
duced as soon as Argentina,
Canada, Australia, and the
United States reach agreement
regarding curtailment Of wheat
production.
Recognizing that talks concern
ing reduction of wheat produc-
ton and acreage were futile
without the consent and coopera-
tion of importing nations, it was
learned that Morgenthau became
active in seeking out delegates
of the chief wheat importing
nations for consultation.
Among those whom he has con
suited is Maxim Litvinoff, Rus
sian foreign commissar, who
promised that "in principle" Rus
sia is willing to curtail her wheat
exports sufficiently to wipe out
Western fears Of Soviet wheat
dumping.
Russia is willing to do this
Litvinoff said, provided other
wheat producing nations "glve
Russia a square deal in the world
grain markets"
Morgenthau is now busy pull
ing all strings possible to get a

FORMULA OF RECOGNITION
 DISCUSSION COMPLETE

WASHINGTON. Oct 30, LP3 - Virtual completion of the formula for Roosevelt's recognition discus sion with Litvinoff. who is now in Paris, enroute here, has been re- vealed. Although the exact course to be followed has been guarded, it is no secret that there has been a final roundup of the data for conversatiins. Both Roosevelt and Hull are silent on Litvinoff's assertion that as far as he was concerned, the matter could be settled in half an hour. It is known that Roosevelt planned to take considerably longer for what he termed move to explore all questions outstanding between the countries. Roosevelt will hit the high spots and leave the details to his assistant, Hull. who postponed for week his South American trip to have in hand the work of the conference, which will begin the first of next week.

With this issue of the Daily Tele- graph Bulletin, we will suspend its publication until such time as the prospective financial income would seem to warrant its resump- tion.
 For over two years the Bulletin has been distinct liability to the publisher. Overhead expenses such as carriers, power, light, heat, labor, stock and etc. cost money.
