I looked around the courtroom, a
smile on. his face. He was sitting
there. coatless, chewing gum. How
ever, he betrayed his nervousness
by running his hand over his
blonde hair, which was carefully
slicked back from his high, reced-
ing forehead.
Bailey's Poker Face
Bai1ey's poker face never
changed expression. His dark eyes
were glued on the clerk during
the reading of the verdict.
He was neatly dressed in black,
a dark tie completing the en-
semble.
The spectators peering closely
at Bailey, saw a strappingly- built
man of about 48 years OF age
whose black hair is grazing
around the temples.
His plain, homely features; are
set off by eyes that. glare from
beneath bushy eyebrows.
Thanks to Jury
After the verdicts had been
read, Judge Vaught discharged
the Jury. He thanked the IL men
in the box, telling them the court
realized jury service was diff
cult task for any citizen. The
judge said:
~ desire to say that I can
conceive of few instances where
the responsibilities of jury ser"
vice have been met with better
understanding than has been
shown by you men. You are
excused"
The IL men filed out of the jury
box and out of the courtroom.
Attorney James H, Mathers. for
Bailey, said he desired to file a
motion for a new trial and arrest
of judgment for his client. A
similar motion, it is understood.

U. S. Steel Accepts
Amended Coal Code

NEW YORK, Sept. 80 G.N.S0.
United States Steel Corporation
today announced its support OF
the Administration action follow
ing the signing of the amendment
to the coal code by the President
Ut Hyde Park bringing captive"
mines under the code regulations.
In a statement by Myron C..
Taylor, chairman, the steel cor
poration stated that it was CO
operating fully with the Govern
-fnent to promote the purposes OF
the national recovery act" and
added that the agreement was
being posted at its mines today.
The action Of United States
Steel was significant in view Of
the labor disturbances at the
mines Of its subsidiary, H. C.
Prick Coke Company. in Pennsyl-
vania in the last two months.
Strikes there have led to the tie
ing UP of the Pennsylvania soft
coal industry and prompted re-
cent troubles in the Pittsburgh
steel center.
Taylor's statement said Prick
Coke Company will comply fully
with all the stipulationS in the
coal code, including rates Of pay
and minimum hours.

CLAUSES

WORRY PEEK
Adjustment Act Not to Be
Made Guarantee of Profit
to. Dealers, He Says


The agricultural adjustment act
will not be allowed to become q
guarantee of profits" to any dis
tributing agency, George N. Peek,
administrator of the act, warned
today.
He was commenting on pro
posals in the pending master code
for the food and grocery indus
try, which will be heard October
8, and which contains price-fix-
ing minimums and maximums.
Small Merchant Hit
These provisions have aroused
much controversy. Economists
and good distribution experts OF
the Department Of Agriculture
who have studied these provisions
are not convinced they will do
much for the trade. One possible
result they foresee is squeezing
out the small merchant.
The latter already is having
difficulties through MIRA costs,
according to some complaints,
and the proposed price-fixing
clauses in the new master code
would give his big competitors an
added weapon, because the lat
ter can buy cheaper through
quantity purchases.
Howe Opposes Plan
The plan is opposed flatly by
Fred C. Howe, consumers counsel
Of the Adjustment Administra-
ton. He pointed out the dis
parity now existing between un-
comes Of distributors of food and
groceries and those of the farm
ers, as showing the cost to the
farmer to market his goods.
Figures also showed that where"
as farm incomes have dropped
even in recent months, the goods
he has to purchase have gone up
several points in the index.

traitor Arthur D. WhiteSide said:
1.-THE code probably will rot

Whiteside pointed out that in
as much as the code is to go into

It has been approved by the
President, bookkeeping problems
of the retailers would be greatly
simplified If the code was not
signed until between next Tuesday
to the following Sunday.
Strenuous efforts to check the
spread Of strikes were begun by
Edward F. McGrady, Assistant
Secretary Of Labor and NRA labor
administrator.
Hints Dictatorship
McGrady warned union organ
izers and union resistant employ
ers alike that continuance OF
their present activities would re-
suit inevitably in Government
control Ut industry: He said:
"The growing question Is: Do
we want to settle these pro-
blemS in . democratic way OF
do we want . dictator"
The retail code situation Is un'
precedented. In all previous cases
Of code delay, labor or owner
groups were responsible fof de-
laying acceptance.
But in tie retail code, the con-
dition has been reversed. An
overwhelming majority Of the re-
tailers approve the code, as re.
vised by the deputy administrator
and labor has not raised a single
dissent.
"StOp Loss" Problem
One unit Of the NRA research
and planning division has con.
demned the .":stop loss'n features
Of the code, which forbids sale
Of goods below wholesale cost
plus 10 per cent.
In the master code for the food
and grocery trade, made public
yesterday, similar provisions slip.
ulate that wholesalers must sell
at not less than cost plus ~ per
cent, and retailers at not less
than wholesale cost plus ia per
cent.
The research and planning divi-
sion charged this form Of price
fixing would inevitably lead to a
decrease in consumption and force
the Government to raise purchas-
ing power by resorting to 'indefi-
mite initiation"

Of the MIRA condemned from the
outset the stop loss" features,
on the ground that they would re-

GARY, Ind, Sept. 80 1N.SD.
Weary and hungry after his three
day ordeal as the hostage Of four
escaped convicts from the State
penitentiary at Michigan City,
Sheriff Charles Neel, Of Corydon,
today faced questioning concern
ing the strange story of his ex.
periences.
Neel was freed here last night
by one of his convict captors
James Clark. Clark was captured
in Hammond shortly after he had
left the tired sheriff
Revised His Story
Authorities said they plan to
question Neel as to why he did
not arrest the convict. His ques
TONERS likewise want to know why
he later revised his story Of the
three days of captivity.
Neel first said he was thrown
out of an automobile and his
four captors sped on. Con.
fronted by the captured felon,
he confirmed Clark's narrative
that they had wandered away
from the other three together,
Sheriff Neel paying their way
here on the train from Hobart.
The trio of convicts had no au.
tomobile. both men agreed.
Meanwhile, authorities began
anew their search of the terri.
tory between Michigan City and
Gary for the other three escaped
felons.
Ten Shoot Way Out
Ten prisoners in all shot their
way out of the State prison last
Tuesday. Clark was the first to
be captured.
When he first reported to
authorities here, Sheriff Neel said
that after spending three days Of
terror with the convicts without
food and only the chill grounds
for a bed at night they released
him near McCool at $50 a. m. yes
terday, speeding off in a stolen
automobile.
He made his way to a concrete
road, but was unable to beg o
ride from passing motorists. He
decided to take a nap at II a, m.
and upon awakening went to

Gary where he telephoned his
wife at Corydon and then re.

The Prick concern has been

Will March ON Clarion
A compatriot affirmed Petro-

"WeTl march 10000 strong
on Clarion next week."
Picket lines at the Clarion by.
products plant Of the Carnegie
Steel Company, like the Prick
concern, a subsidiary Of U. s.
Steel, began slowly breaking up
today as the miners headed their
motorcade toward Richeyville,
where a mass meeting was sched'
uled.
Efforts to form picket lines
to draw out steel workers in
protest against the use Of out
of-State coal in Pennsylvania by
products operations were sum
marily halted when company po'
lice raided a union headquarters
where the men were lnobiizihg
and dispersed the pickets.
Steel Strikers Firm,
Meanwhile, 10000, employees Of
the Weirton Steel Company, sub
sidiary Of National steel, were
standing firm in their strike as
the walkout resolved itself into
a clear-cut company union issue.
Two radically different pictures
of the situation were presented
in statements issued by E. T.
Weir, chairman of the board Of
National Steel, and william J.
Long, local president Of the
Amalgamated Association Of Iron,
Steel and Tin Workers.
Weir contended that committees
had been regularly elected by Sc

conformity with MIRA, and that
under it the company has no
choice but to deal with such com.

Declares Men COerced
Long countered with the charge
that mill foremen practically
forced" the men to go to the bal
lot boxes. regardless Of whether
they intended to vote.
He added that 80 per cent Of
the company union representa-
tives had turned in their resigna-
tions but the company would not
accept them. These men, Long

AUSTRIA YIELDS
DINING TIPS

KLA G EN- F U R T, Austria
G.NSO.-The return of wines
and spirits to the United States
being seemingly imminent, and
with it a corresponding increase
Of interest in the gastronomic
arts, it is time America looked the
field over with the idea of i'm
proving it's knowledge Of foreign
food.
The food of England is as
American as central heating, and
the food Of France being too well
known in America to warrant
comment, one might look toward
Central Europe for something
new.
Now an Austrian dinner usually
starts with the Austrian equiva-
lent of a cocktail. Generally it is
slivovitz. SlivovitZ is pure white
and tastes like nothing on earth,
but it warns the interior and pre-
pares it for the meal. Slivovitz
is made of prunes and is, roughly
speaking, prune brandy.
The main dish may well be
blackburn which is chicken
fried in butter-the' chicken that
southerners, boast about but so
seldom actually produce 1t may
be served with small Drowned po-
tatoes. and kohlrabi. a sort of
cabbage with a refined accent.
With this a good Austrian wine.
A wine such as Gumpoldkirchner,
for instance, low in alcoholic con-
tent but high in gastronomic and
entertainment value, would do
nicely. It Is as smooth as the
feathers on a dove and it is as
light as rarified air.
