blue SKY BILL.
in CONFERENCE.
Is Passed by the Senate
With Single Major
Amendment

WASHINGTON. May 9. (UP).
After only two hours of debate
and without a record vote the
senate yesterday passed the Ray
burn-Fletcher "blue sky bill de
signed to protect American inves-
tors from worthless securities.
The senate broadened the meas
ure to provide a government
sponsored Corporation Of foreign
security holders" This body
would be empowered to save as
much rs possible from the wreck
age Of foreign bonds flOated so
Iavishly in the United States, and
to furnish information so that
such a disaster might be avoided
in the future.
The bill. which passed the house
with other slight differences than
this major change. now goes to
conference. Thereafter It will be
sent to the White House for Pres
ident Roosevelt's signature to be-
come the first phase of his pro-
gram to remedy the financial and
speculative abuses of the depres-
sion era.
The bill requires that all secur-
itv issues sold in Interstate COM
mcrce hereafter must be regis
tered with the federal trade com
mission which gives full publicity
to them. The buyer may sue 20
recover in cases of misreprcsen-
ton Or fraud.
The provision to aid foreign
bondholders was embodied IN ar
amendment sponsored by Senator
Hiram Johnson, Repn., Calf. He
conducted the investigation which
revealed the extent of losses SUI
fered by American investors IN
foreign securities.
This corporation would be APP
pointed by the federal trade COM
mission with which also all for,
pign issues foated in the United
States must be registered on the
same basis as domestic securities.
Reviewing the tragic specula-
tive era, Chairman Duncan L..
Fletcher of the banking and cur
rencv committee told the senate
that virtually all of the 500, OOO,-
600, 900 worth of securities SOLD
in the boom perion now are prac-
tically worthless.

PEIPING, May O. (UP). -
Press dispatches from Washing
ton quoting T. V. Soong, Chinese
delegate to the economic CONVEX
sations, as saying he had been as
sured Of American intervention
in China if Japanese troops cap
turcd Pciping created a sensation
here today.
The dispatches quoted Soong

UNREGULATED ANARCHY In
APPLICATION OF THE GOLD
STANDARD CAUSED FAILURE
McGarrah of New York, Retiring President of the Bank
for International Settlements, Scores Individual
ism as World Business Evil
BAGLF. Switzerland, MAY O.

BASLE, Switzerland, May g..
(UP).-Temporary failure Of the
gold standard in some Of the ma
ior countries Of the world was
due to "unregulated anarchy" in
its application, Gates McGarrah,
of New York. retiring president
Of the Bank for International Set
Elements declared in an address
here last night.
McGarrah declared that faults
in the operation of the gold stand
ard "must be remedied" before it
could be looked to again as a sta
pie basis for world monetary deal
ings. His speech was broadcast to
the United States.
Experience seems to prove"
McGarrah said, chat it was fun
damental economic causes which
upset the gold standard. But ex-
perience also proves that there
are many faults in its operation
which must be remedied.
"There was lack of internatlon-
al agreement as to the guiding
principles of the gold Standard
and the principle rules the game.
"The gold standard will work
no better in future than in the
past if the unregulated anarchy
which prevailed in its application
and the short-sighted individual
ism which has been practiced. are
to commence all over again."
McGarrah's speech followed
adoption of a resolution by the
general assembly of the bank, rec
ommending early establishment
of a new monetary system in the
form of a modified gold standard
as one cure for the worlds eco
nomic ills.
The bankers adopted a resolu-
ton requesting that the forthcom-
ing world economic conference
prepare for some such modified
standard-a revolutionary move
on monetary measures, they init
mated.
In their annual report, the
banks directorate declared that
the world is standing at the part
ing Of the ways, and that it must
decide whether to develop an iso-
lated economic nationalism with
lower standard of living or return
to economic internationalism.
The directors report declared
that the gold standard still was
the best currency exchange to-
day. And that the first step back
to normally must therefore be
the restoration of the gold stand
ard.
The recommendation will be
carried to the London world eco
nomic parley.

plates, according to Brewer. The
$500 gallons of blue background
enamel used on the 1888 license
plates cost $4,000. while the white
ink for the numerals cost $240,
since the blue pigment is one of
the most expensive made and thus
makes blue enamel very eXpen-

enamel is about the cheapest that

LABOR FOE OF
RAILWAY PLAN
Committeeman AssaiI 1t
and Admission Jobs May
Be Fewer Is Made

WASHINGTON, May 9. (UP).
Organized labor threw It's opposi-
ton against President Roosevelts
railroad reorganization plan yes
terday when the house commerce
committee began examining it.
Committeeman were particular
ly bitter in condemning Mr..
Roosevclt'5 proposal to consoll-
date competing roads and to
abandon the others serving
sparscly settled communities.
Such scrapping Of Improbable
lines, said the congressman, would
throw more railroad men out of
work. They finally got Dr.. W.
NJ. w. Splawn, cO-author of the
bill, TO admit:
''If substantial economies are
made men would lose jobs"
"Thc economies would be at
the expense Of the employees"
said Representative Wolyerton,
Republican, New Jersey.
This bill probably will deprive
a great many men Of their jobs"
added Representative. Cooper,
Republican, Ohio.
Chairman Rayburn said there
was mo question" but that the
bill would add to unemployment.
Nevertheless ne said he believed
some additions to the joblesS
ranks would be better than col
lapse of the country's $20,O0O,-
OOO,OO railroad structure.
Secretary Of Commerce Roper
urged the committee to speed a
favorable report.
"Purposc Of the bill is to assist
the railroads to help themselves"

WASHINGTON, May Q. (UP).
Congressional agencies had COM
pletcd the draft of bills which will
carry out President RoosevcltS
plan for cooperation between
government and industry TO has
ten economic recovery.
The chief executives aim as
outlined Sunday night to stabilize
production, remove "cut-throat"
competition, reduce hours Of
work, and increase wages is en-
bodied in bills framed by Senator
Robert s. Wagner, DEM, n. Y,
and Chairman William p. Connery
of the house labor committee.
Wagner expects to submit his
bill to the president within a day
or two. Connery's measure, which
he will lay before his committee,
is a substitute for the original
Black five-dav week, siX-hour day
bill passed by the senate.
Legislative action. leaders said,
would be FASTENED if the Connery
bill were made an amendment to
the Black bill. A new measure
will be the target of usual debate.
But Connery is working indie"
pendently. He is insisting upon
one provision of his bill which is
very distasteful to the administra~
ton. This is application of the
measure to foreign as we'll as DO.
nestle commerce which would
constitute a virtual embargo. Ad~
ministration officials feel this
would seriously impede President
Roosevelt in his negotiations with
foreign nations on tariff reduc-
tionS.
Connery's bill is the result of
suggestions by Secretary of La
Dor Frances Perkins and business
and labor representatives who ap-
pearcd before his committee. He
expects to get a favorable report
soon. House leaders however in
dictated they would delay action
until President Roosevelt decides
how he wants to proceed.
Both measures call for crea-
ton of a federal board which
would license industries as to pro-
duction, hours of work, and
wages. Industries. through their
trade associations, would submit
a plan to the federal board for
approval. :,
Wagners bill gives the board
power to enforce its decisions,
while Connery has no specific
mandate other than publicity and
public opinion. The Connery
measure provides that the board
NAV initiate agreements in indus
tries which do not have trade as
sociations.
The Connery bill sets a definite
five-day week, siX-hOur day., with
an exception that any industry
may for a period Of five days in
any 80 days apply schedule of
eight hours a day for five days,
By licensing industries, the
board would revoke antitrust laws
to permit agreements for stabiliz-
ing production.
The Connery bill specifiec a
Giving wage" without fixing any
minimum wage. A definite mini
mum wage would encounter the
threat of being held unconstitu-
tional by the supreme court, and

minimum wage on the ground it
