FoIIolu The Leader

AS we begin to see the whole recovery program
taking shape, several things about it become more
clear.
The most important phase of it is the coopera-
tive feature The Of the Presidents plan de-
pends upon degree Of cooperation between individ-
uas and business organizations such We had never
dreamed of i'll America year ago. Indeed, a year
ago basing our Judgment upon the failure OF SO
many well-meant cooperative efforts, We would have
said itwas impossible to get the American people to
cooperate in anything
Under the recovery program, cooperation is es-
sentia among agricultural producers in their respec-
tive lines, among business men and lndustrlalsts IN
theirs among the people generally in supporting and
encouraging this gigantic effort to bring depressed
nation back to prosperity.
We believe the effort can be successful, but only
if everybody does actually cooperate Those who hold
back because they cannot clearly the advantages
TO themselves will be hampering themselves we'll
as everybody else by their hesitation That is natural
hesitation because few want to pledge them
selves to any new projects until they assured that
all their competitors are going to do the same thing.
The strength of the situation lies in the provls-
ions in the Farm Administration Act and the Ma
tional Industrial Recovery Act whereby. once ma
ioritv in anv lire lave adopted their code or agreed
TO cooperate the others can be forced in That reoV-
es the principal danger, that recacitrant minority
might throw monkey-Wrench into the machlnery
for their selfish advantage.
It certainly is true that If all the people OF the
United States once start pulling together as team
in one direction we can pull ourselves out OF any
hole however deep. The direction has been pointed
out to U.s. The thing for all good Americans to DO is
to follow the leader.
Nogales international., 1933-08-12
What Will We Do With The Time?

1t seems to be definitely On the cards that our
reorganized industries will operate shorter work
ing schedule than has prevailed in the past. Workers
are to have a higher average wage and shorter av-
erage working week
In other words, everybody is to have more time
for play.
It seems to us rather important question: What
will we do with this added leisure?
Beyond doubt, there will be big boom in COM
mercaized entertainment, all the way from the so
called sports of professional baseball, boxing match
es and the like to and thea
trica entertainments of all kinds. For there Will al
ways be large percentage OF people who have never
learned how to get any real benefit out of their spare
time largely because they never had any spare time
and partly because they too lazy too stupid to
take part in any sort Of sports Or games themselves
But we think there are signs that more and more
people are interested in what may be called the old
fashioned ways Of having good time in their leisure
hours besides going out on pettng parties in their
automobiles Roller skating has back strong. So
has bicycling; bicycle makers say they are doing
record business And that is not because people have
not got cars it is because generation of young
people have discovered, what their grand parents
knew that there is real enjoyment and health
in day of cycling in the country than there is in
days motoring.
In almost every community there are better ia
cties for community sports and entertainment than
there were only few years ago. With more people
having leisure in which to take part in the ought
to develop new forms Of community activity in which
everybody can have good time.
And we hope, too, that some of the new leisure
will be spent bv at least few in the cultivation Of
the intellect. Most Of could do with good deal
of that. ,..-.:;: f.,

oo0 acres in cane, is consumed in
the republic and prollibitive tariffs
prevent importation.
While the shortage will not be
acute. there are indications that
producers will obtain most fav-
orable price for their sugar, he said.
In all, the huge plantation OF
which Mr.. Simmons is the head,
has six-and-a-half million acres.
Alfalfa is principal crop but much
of the and is not suitable for field
production
A million gallons of alcohol are
made annually as a by-product OF
the cane, Mr. Simmons asserted,
and all of this is sold through re-
gular commercial trade channels in
Mexico, although a small part Of it
is later smuggled into the United
States. Tequila, mescal, perfume and
chemical manufacturers buy up
most of it. The Los Mochis plant
has a capacity OF $4,000 tons year
and 4,5OO laborers are employed on
the plantation. The crop is harv-
ested in December.
Mr.. Simmons pointed out that leg
islation permitting more favorable
trade reciprocity between Mexico
and the United States would great
ly benefit both countries.
He is accompanied on his trip by

Following a long illness, Mrs.

Death was due to tuberculosis.
Mrs. Wright was the widow of a

The principal items OF the Blue
Hawk agreement, which has be-
come definitely the Administration
policy, are that boys and girls un-
der sixteen may not be employed at
all, except that those over IA may
work not more than three hours a
day, rs in the case of newspaper
carriers; that office workers and
other white e-collar" help may not
work more than forty hours week,
factory workers not more than 35
hours week; and that wages shall
not be less than $12 week in the
smallest town nor less than SIS a
week in the big cities, or in the
case OF factory workers, not less
than 40 cents an hour.
Those provisions, or something
ike them. will be included in all of
the codes governing every line of
business, which are being worked
out now by the industries them
selves and the Recovery Admins
tration under General Hugh John
son. This work is going more slow
ly than had been expected, for a
number of reasons. This slowness
is the real reason back Of the PreSi-
dents call for the voluntary agree
ment.
It is all new ground being cleared

WASHINGTON, August II. (Au-
tocaster) this Administra-
ton is a year old, official Wash
;ngton will know more about busl-
ness and business men will know
more about politics than has ever
been the case in our history. For
every business man in America who
employs more than two persons will,
sooner or later, have to establish
direct connection with the Govern
ment, and the Government will ex-
ercise a degree of control over ev-
cry business mans business.
That is what is developing, out
of the efforts to put the National
Industrial Recovery Act into effect.
At the moment, that is the one
activity of the Government upon
which all interest and effort is con-
centrated Everything else has either
been side-tracked for the moment,
or is already under way satisfac-
torily. The wheat, cotton and other
agricultural relief programs are at
work, with strong belief here that
direct money benefits to farmers
will be general and pronounced
within another six weeks. Now the
effort is to bring about direct bene-
fits to business and wage-earners as
speedily possible.
NRA Voluntary Code
First, at the moment, is the So
called Blue Hawk" or blanket VOL
untary code This is not any part
of the Industrial Recovery Act. It
is a direct voluntary agreement be-
tween individual employers and the
President Of the United States, un-
der which each employer is asked to
pledge himself to certain regula-
tions of wages and hours Or labor,
such pledge to be binding until the
end of this year, or until the indus
try of which his business is a part
had adopted and obtained the &C
ceptance Of a code for that indus
try.
The primary purpose Of this Blue
Hawk code-so-called because Cen
eral johnson, chief administrator
under the recovery act, said the
emblem of the eagle on the posters
and window-cards used looked like
a blue hawk-its primary purpose
is to make more jobs in order to
put unemployed men and women
back to work, and to raise the wag-
es of the loWest-paid workers who
are already at work.
! It is too soon to tell how effec-
tive it will be- In many cases it Will
not mean the employment OF any
more help. In some cases it will re-
ouire the addition Of several per-
sons. But if the five million en-
ployers who are expected to sign
the Blue Hawk agreement should
average one additional job each,
that mould make a big dent in un-
Nogales international., 1933-08-12

cessary credit to employers who
will need additional Accommodations
in order to take care of the added
expense of operation under the Blue
Hawk agreement, because it is be-
coming reasonably certain that most
businesses will be able to operate
on full time and at a profit before
long.

CUMBERLAND GAP, Tenn,
July 81 Q.N.S0.-The worlds
"Yee-hoo" championship was
claimed today by burly Lee
Chrisman, Boyle county farmer,
whose voice carried eight miles
in a test here yesterday.
Chrisman hollered himself to
fame last February, when his
luSty shouts were heard a dis
tance of six and a half miles in
the bluegrass country near Dan
vile.
Determined to beat his own
mark, he went to Middlesboro
10 days ago and trained for his
championship test in the Cum
berland Mountains for a week.
Yesterday he assembled the Pin
nacle, highest peak hereabouts,
and shouted his loudest. Listen
ers stationed eight miles away
reported hearing him distinctly.
Two were postd IN Virginia, two
in Tnnessee and one in Ken
lucky. The Pinnacle overlooks
all three States.
Since his first record shout
Chrisman has been in such big
demand as an auctioneer that
he has forsaken his farming for
the present.

Presidents Interest in Plan to
Set Up Courts Martial Cited
at Chicago ParIey

CHICAGO, July 81 G.N.SO
National martial law was one Of
the measures under contempla-
ton today as 800 law enforcers Of
the United States met to draw
up plans for a concerted attack
upon Americas criminal horde,
particularly kidnapers.
Opening four-day session here,
the country's leading law en-
forcers from cities, States and
the Federal government began
mapping a campaign against the
racketeer, the gangster, the kid
naper and the thief.
For Courts Martial
Foremost of the proposals Of
fered for consideration was the
plan of Emory j. Smith, assistant
attorney general of Illinois, call
ing for modified form of mar
tial law throughout the country
to combat organized crime.
The plan advanced by Smith
recommends that the President
declare nationwide martial law,
enabling courts martial to be set
up in the crime centers, thus
eliminating the formalities and
technical procedure Of returning
indictments and giving jury
trials.
Interests Roosevelt
President Roosevelt has already
taken the plan under considera-
ton, it was stated by supporters
Of the scheme.
Speaking in defense Of his pro-
posal, Smith said:
mo rebellion has beeS such a
challenge to the foundations of
q free government as the super
government set up by the gangs
and crooked OfficialdOm.
eff there ever was strong justi-
ficatiOn for the Intervention Of
the Government in the history

HYDE PARK, N. Y, July 81
G.N.SO two days Of rest
behind him, President Roosevelt
settled to work in the tiny study
of his home today, preparatory to
an afternoon of swimming and
recreation.
Mr.. Roosevelt ordered his secre-
tary, Marvin H. Mcintyre, to
bring all kilograms and other
messages and papers Of impor-
tance to Krum Elbow, his home,
about 10:30 a. m. and was still
working at noon. Miss Maud
Dwyer, a White House stenog-
rapher, went out to the Presi.
dents home from PoughkeepSie,
where she is staying, and the
President kept her busy nearly an
hour debating.
Offices Established
In Poughkeepsie, Mcintyre had
a temporary Executive office"
running full blast, with his Secre-
tary, Henry Kannee, taking care
Of the routine. Except for it's To-
cation and exterior appearance,
the office had every appearance
Of the White House executive Of
fices.
The President has used the tele-
phone extensively since he arrived
here Saturday, and today was in
connection with officials Of his
National Recovery Organization
half a dozen times or more.
Will Try New Auto
An afternoon automobile ride
was planned, before Mr.. Roose-
velt goes swimming in the pool on
his estate. He recently purchased
an automobile designed for all
hand control, and he was anxious
to try it out here.
Louis McHenry Howe, the PreSi-
dents personal secretary, was ex-
pected here late this afternoon.
Mcintyre announced, however,
that Howe was coming for a vaca-
tion only.
Mr.. Roosevelt did not plan a
heavy program of work while
here, but on the other hand, did
not expect to remain idle.
SplaShes in Pool.
Each afternoon has found him
Splashing in the swimming pool
just in front of the comfortable
and cool little place.

newing old friendships that were
born years ago. During the tor
rid afternoon Capt. and Mrs.
