FOUR MORE BIG
 INDUSTRIES TO
 PRESENT CODE
Steel, Coal, Oil and Lufn- Der Were Ready to Pre- sent Trade Agreements Under New Law
By H. O. THOMPSON United Press Stan Correspondent

V
 Washington, July 12-(UP)- The steel, coal, and oil industries were ready to present trade agree ments for the approval of the gov- ernment to-day, giving tremendous momentum to President Roose- velt's industrial recovery program.
 Each code specifies higher wages and shorter working hours for em- ployes.
 Administrator Hugh s. Johnson said the steel code was expected during the day. Hearings will be- gin probably next Wednesday.
 Influential coal operators were ready with a code which will be used as a start in framing a code for the entire bituminous industry. They agreed with union represent atievs on basic wage of $5 day flor miners. Protracted discussion failed, however, to bring agree- ment on the question of hours and the dispute will be put up to the industrial administration for settle ment.
 Johnson said a hearing date would be set soon, with codes for the various sections of the industry being considered separately if a general agreement could not be reached. Indiana coal operators submitted proposed code for their district last week.
 The oil code will be submitted within 8 week, 1t was expected. A hearing on the lumber indus try's proposed code begins next Thursday, Johnson said it's terms are wholly unacceptable" but he hopes to reach a satisfactory ar- rangement during the hearings. With progress being made in these four major industries, John son was hopeful 1t would not be necessary to apply stringent meth- ods to get industries to cooperate. Anon gthe drastic measures being considered for use if needed were: l. Fixing of an arbitrary date on which codes must be submitted. 2. Setting of hearing dates for particular industries. 8. Setting of an arbitrary code for particular industries, listing wages and hours which N. I. R. A. economists feel are necessary to re- store purchasing power to the 1926 and 1929 level.

 Other exchanges among the first twenty largest in the state have the following rates per month: New Britain, 117.47; Norwaik. 11e.7s: New London, 112.74; Meriden, 110.5s; Norwich, 1os.s5: Torring- ton, 106.17; Bristol, 1O6.0O; Willi- mantle, 105.s5: Putnam, 1o1.e6: Middletown, e9.Oz; Manchester, 98.6O; Milford, 92.27.
 Why should the Southern New England Telephone company care which exchange makes the most use of its telephones? This fn- formation is the by-product of q constant study of telephone use which the company makes through the medium of exact counts of calls in each exchange. The latter are very important to the company's engineering forces in planning the future equipment requirements of it's exchanges.

Among the SO candidates for the
degree of Bachelor of Divinity, II
denominations, At colleges and uni
versities, 20 state and one foreign
country We're represented.
Professor Karl H. Kraeling told
the graduates yesterday that Chris
tian ministers stand today, mot
above or against. but alongside of
men of other professions, which are
equally necessary to the conduct OF
life in this world of ours.
1.-The secuIarization which has &C
companied modern life has placed
the Christian minister alongside
of the doctor, lawyer, teacher and
social worker" From the point of
view, both of the church and OF
human welfare, it is most welcome,
for it has evicted' the Christian
minister from premises upon
which he has no genuine lease
hold.
There is no cleavage line be-
tween the minister and the men,
bers of other professions in their
concern for all of mankind. A
living contact with the highest and
the best that the past has produced
is something not implicit in the ma
ture and function of the other
professions, but is specific ele-
| ment in the ministerial profession
alone.
