JOHNSON CLAIMED
TO BE THE MAN
in NRA PROGRAM
SHOWN WHERE HIS ABSENCE
FROM OFFICE CAUSES COM
PLETE HOLD UP IN PRAc-
TIcALLY ALL MATTERS

WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.--Those
who have contended that the NRA
is . one-fnan organization and that
the one man is Hugh Johnson have
found strong evidence to support
their claim.
It did seem recently when a.
slight illness forced the general
from his office that nearly every
thing at MIRA headquarters came
to o virtual standstiII--that the
entire machinery slowed almost to
hating.
Marking Time
The code for the drug industry
was held up. Final action on the
retail code awaited his return. The
coal codes affecting Alabama and
western Kentucky were at q stand
still, as were the plans for general
reorganization of the NRA.
The weakness of the recovery
organization quickly came to light
There was no assistant administers
tor. Since Dudley Gates resigned.
. few weeks ago no one seemed
to have authority to act in John
sons absence.
When the general returned he
acted quickly to remedy the sit.
uation. He moved r. W. Lee, a
longtime associate, into the va
cancy created by Gates resigna-
ton, and gave him the title of as
sistant administrator.
That, it is hoped, will prevent
any such tie-up in the future.
jobs AffIiction
Incidentally, there's an anus
ing story connected with the gem
erals illness. 1t concerns the way
in which his habitual frankness
with newspapermen assigned to
"cover" NRA fooled them COM
pletely.
Johnson's ailment was nothing
more than a very painful boil. He
went quietly to the ariny's hospital
here to have it treated.
When his absence from NRA
headquarters was noted, questions
as to the reason were answered
with the simple statement that,
Hes got boil"
/ The general was in the hospital
from Thursday until the following
Tuesday before newspapermen
learned of his whereabouts.
Frankness plus the rigid secrecy
which surrounds the army hospital
in the capital fooled 'em all.
Heard In Passing
Senator Logan of Kentucky,
who ehastised the ladies of Lou
isiana recently for their attitude
toward the senate Investigation
committee looking into the activi-
ties of Huey Long and warned
them they might incur the con-
tempt Of the senate, teaches a
Sunday school class in the capital
during senate sessions.
The senator also once amazed
his colleagues with the statement
on the floor that 81 didn't want to
come to the senate in the first
place. and now that I am here I
am not 20 sure that ! care about
staying. -"

THE BLUE EAGLES HISTORY
Chronicle. Milford. Deleware)

y
How does it happen that the eagle
was ever selected to be the emblem of the
American nation. and that now the blue
eagles IN our store windows have become
the symbol for tie mightiest industrial eff
fort that the American people ever made?
The eagle has figured in the poetry
and patriotic feeling of many nations. The
Roman armies 1000 years ago marched
under this symbol to the conquests that
created the greatest empire of ancient
days. The eagle seems to have been
adopted as an American symbol. as the re-
suit of its amazing powers Of vision. and the
height TO which it can soar in the sky. The
eagle sees everything and rises above
everything. So may the marching army
Of industry under the blue eagle rise far
above al our encumbering difficulties, and
spy out the sure and safe path to better
economic life.

corner, rushed into the ring and help

The cries Of the crowd continued, eb-
bling only when Schaaf, still uncon-
scious, was carried from the ring.
Sharkey was part owner with john
ny Buckley of Schaaf's contract. The
fight between Camera and Schaai
was originally made with the inten-
ton Of having the winner meet Shar-
key later this year for the heavy
weight championship. There was such

won would championship bout be
arranged.

title was concerned, and everything t6

Experts at the ringside scored mos.

Schaaf's seeming diffidence and fail
ure to make q fight Of it.
After the fight it became known
that Schaaf only fortnight ago had
recovered from an Illness OF influenza
and this was advanced by his sup
porters as accounting for his unfavor-
able showing.
Buckley disclosed Monday that
Schaaf had trained only 10 days fol
the Garden fight. Doctors at the
ringside commented that Schaaf had
shown signs Of distress as early as the
fifth round.
sharkey, who left for Miami Satur-
day, said Schaaf had appeared all
right when he left his corner at the
start Of the 18th round.
Members Of the boxing commission
had not indicated early Tuesday what
action might be taken in consequence
OF the tragedy. There was no word
that Camera was held to blame in
any way.
