 "our investigation revealed the telegram he produced marked copy had been sent from one tel- egraph office to another right here In Kansas City"

 force."
 It was revealed that several NRA officials, while agreeing with some of Gates views privately. de- cided their course lay in strict in- depreciation .of the National Re- covery Act rather than in imposing their own ideas of the situation.
 Gates went south to-day for a rest and relaxation. maintaining the NRA policy encouraged forced unionization of workers.
 Johnson declared that early in ms administration he determined that It was the function of NRA as prescribed by the statute to main- tain an attitude of perfect neu- trality. to lend itself to no theory but to execute the law"
 The objection of industrial!sts to unionization Is not so much against labor organizations as against their leadership. Bituminous coal operS ators, for instance, resented some Of John L. Lewis tactics during and after the Jacksonville wage agreements. They and others fear that through the operations of the NRA they may be left at the mercy of labor leaders whose zeal is stronger than their business sense.
 The MIRA organization, now less than three months old, is shifting rapidly to provide for Q new set or problems which will come with administration of the codes now being received. and put into ef- feet by Mir Roosevelt.
 The time for presentation of vol- untary unemployment agreements Is past. The NRA wants now to clean up the remaining industries which have not submitted codes for the two year. duration of the recovery act. To this end the pres ident may at any time summon hesitant industries into hearings or set arbitrary codes for them. F The Blue Eagle" drive is esti- mated to have gained, in conjunc- tion with permanent codes, jobs for some 100000 workers.
 The presidential Unemployment agreement were announced on July .31. when only three perma- nept codes-cotton textiles, ship building and wool textile-were in operation. Johnson feels that de- velopments through the summer have justified his idea that some such emergency action was nec- essary.
 Here are some the results ai- ready achieved:
 l-Elimination of child labor. 2-Elimination or correction of sweatshop abuses,
 3-strengthening of the position or organized labor. f 4--Higher ethical standards for business practices.
 6-Improvement of womeu's place in the industrial world. 6-Establishment of machinery for handling industrial disputes. 7-peyeIopment Of leng range planning and coordination 6f stat- istlcai information.
 s--Appearanee of . new spirit ef co.operation among many 6. dustriaiists. e=controi Of prices and pFedus. ton ln certain cases i0-Banning of unfair trade practices and destructive eempsu-

Havana streets, determined that theft should not add to the loss of hurricane victims. one man was killed by q fall from q roof here. and two men were killed at santa Clara.
 Reports of damage began reach- ing Havana, in the western portion of the island, yesterday morning. The wind swept through the prov. inces of Camaguoy, Santa Clara and Matanzas. ripping down trees on plantations, unroofing more solidly built houses, felling tele. graph and telephone poles, and de- molishing the shacks of the poor.
 Rivers rose and number of towns were partly flooded. Rains and black clouds, preceded the full hurricane winds.
 Communication lines stood up long enough to give ample warn. ing, and damege was lsssened be- cause windows and doors were se- cured and small boats were beach, ed. Large ones. including the Cum arder Mauretania, hove to and rode out tho winds.
 The storm hit Havana at 1 pm. The sixty mile wind rose to 98 miles, and gusts were reported as high as 162 miles an hour. Tele- phones wore dead. Lights went opt. The waters of the gulf rose with alarming rapidity and swept over the Malecon, the waterfront promenade.
 By. 5:30 ?. m., tho wind was abating, leaving maiy persons ma rooned in the Malecon-Prado area.
 Streets were filtered with glass and foliage. Roofs of some build ings leaned craxily down toward the street. Police, soldiers and members of the ABC Revolution Society turned out into the streets at once to prevent footing. Relief was organized hastily but efficiently. The government was organizing truck caravans and trains to take food and medical supplies to stricken provincial towns.
