PARK OFFICER AIDS FIRST LADY
BY CARRYING OFF DOG IN CYCLE

Mrs. Roosevelt appealed to the officer
to do something about the situation,
and he volunteered to take the stray
dog to the Animal Rescue League. The
only medium Of transportation avail
able was Howell's motor cycle side car
and with the assistance of the First
Lady he managed to get the animal to
stay in the vehicle long enough to get
started. The rest of the job was easy,
because the dog liked the unexpected
ride.

"Under the new law, every code of
fair competition must recognize the
right of labor to bargain collectively.
every code must include provisions
as to minimum wages, maximum hours
and other working conditions, all Of
which must be approved by the Presi-
dent.
an this way the production and

ain addition, we shall move a step

Codes Adjusted to Industries.
"These codes are not inflexible

forced.
"a different code is drawn up for
each trade or industry.
Gwen within a single group, the
President may make notifications or
exemptions whenever necessary to eff

There are other races-rich stakes and ham

the race for the man in the street. Kentucky

at Lexington. It was bad race.

He needs a work horse to go around with
