NRA MOVES TO
HALT STRIKE AT
FORD MOTOR co.
u. S. Labor Board Calls
Farley in Effort to
Reach Accord.
ByTuftcdPress

BV THttcd Press
WASHINGTON. Oct. 18. The
national labor board today moved
openly into labor disputes between
the Ford Motor Company and
strikers at its eastern factories.
The extent to which Ford, who
held aloof from the NRA automo-
bile code. would recognize the
boards authority TO act in the dis
putes was uncertain. Neither was
there any immediate indication as
to whether the board was prepared
to assume formal Jurisdiction over
the strikers and attempt to enforce
any decisions it might make.
Chairman Wagner Of the labor
board announced that the manager
Of the Ford assembly plant at Edge
water, N. j., would meet today with
representatives Of the strikers at a
Newark IN. j. conference arranged
by the board Gordon Wagenet of
New York was scheduled TO attend
as a representative The board an
nounced it was arranging a similar
meeting at Chester, Pa, where Ford
workers also have been on strike.
Statement Is Denied
Wagner announced Il have re-
ceived formal assurance by telegram
from the Ford company in Dear
born, Mich, that the company is
prepared to meet authorized rep
resentatives of their employees
From the boards point of view
strikers must be regarded as en-
ployes in any negotiations.
In Dearborn an official Ford
spokesman denied that the company
had telegraphed Wagner that it
was willing to meet with the strik-
ers under labor board auspices.
IF Senator Wagner Will publish
the telegram he received early in
the week" the spokesman said, "it
will show totally different state Of
facts. Senator Wagner has full
liberty to show the telegram"
Wagner could not be reached at
once to clarity the situation.
Threaten Mine Action
The board meantime planned to
hold hearings today on a four-week
strike of tool and die makers in
automobile factories at Detroit
Flint and Pontiac, Mich. Among
those called to the hearing were
Alvin McCauley, president of the
Automobile Chamber of Commerce;
William S. Knudsen, executive vice
president of General Motors, ana
strike leaders.
Recovery Administrator Hugh S.
Johnson and his aids meantime
kept a close watch on labor trou-
bles in the coal fields. johnson said
the captive mine situation in Penn
Sylvania was getting pretty close"
to the point where President Roose-
welt would step in and make set

owners and miners representatives

Stubborn Coughs
Ended by Recipe,
Mixed at Home
Big Saving! No Cooking! So Easyl

Here is the famous old recipe which
millions of housewives have found to
be the most dependable means of break
ing up stubborn coughs. 1t takes but
a moment to prepare, and costs very
little, but it positively has no equal TOR
quick, lasting relief.
From any druggist, get 2R ounces of
Pinex. Pour this into a pint bottle and
fill the bottle with graduated sugar
syrup, made with 2 cups of sugar and
one cup of water, stirred a few mo-
ments until dissolved. No cooking need
edits so easy! Thus you make
full pint of better remedy than you
could buy ready-made, and you get four
times as much foryour money. 1t never
spoils and children love its taste.
This simple mixture soothes and
heals the infiamed throat membranes
with surprising ease. 1t loosens the
germ-laden phlegm and eases chest sore
ness in a way that is really astonishing.
Pinex is a highly concentrated com
pound of Norway Pine, the most rell-
able healing agent for severe coughs;
1t is guaranteed to give prompt relief
or money refunded.
