100000 Employers Asked to
Join Administration Re-

PLAN PROPAGANDA DRIVE
Johnson Intends to 'Saturate
Country With the Dope
on This Thing

Washington, July 2l.-lP-Every
citizen Friday was summoned to a
covenant with President Roosevelt to
re-employ the jobless millions by La
Dor Day.
TO more than 100000 employers
was addressed a request from the
president to join his national recov-
cry administration In a mass attack
on the depression by voluntary agree
ments to lift wages and shorten
hours.
To the public went an open appeal
for cooperation "by supporting and
patronizing employers and workers
who are members of the N. r. A.
signers of the presidential agree
ments for boosting national purchas-
ing power.
Powerfully driving this war-like
plan for unifying the country in Gre
ating unemployment was carefully
mapped Campaign of education
that brusque Hugh S. johnson said
will "saturate the country with the
dope on this thing"
President Roosevelt himself will
take to the people the plan he and
Johnson agreed upon finally late
Thursday night.
The heart of the plan:
Every employer will receive through
the mail July ~ an agreement ad-
dressed to him by President Roose-
welt. Upon signing, this binds him to
maintain a fixed minimum wage and
not to- exceed fixed maximum work
week during "the presidents emer-
gency Unemployment drive" from
Aug. l to Dec. /.
Here Is the Dope
The basic hours, labor and wages:
Child labor outlawed.
$l4 to SIS a week minimum and q
40-hour week for so-called white
collar labor.
80 to 40 cents an hour minimum
for a 35-hour week and an eight hour
day maximum for factory and me-
chanical labor.
Equitable readjustment Of pay
above the minimum.
Every signer receives a certificate
and government badge showing the
seal of N. r. A. (National Recovery
ADMINISTRATOR and the words:
Members N. r. A. We Do Our Part" "
This badge may be displayed on all
equipment, goods, communications
and premises. The signer may ap-
peal for adjustments if a hardship is
worked.
Were going to appeal to the pub
lie to support the people who agree"
Johnson said. Il believe we can
create psychology stronger than in
war. We already have the churches
and fraternal societies lined up"
For every consumer who wishes to
cooperate and become member Of
the N. r. A. there will be badge
issued upon signing of this state
ment:
II will cooperate in unemployment
by supporting and patronizing en-
ployers and workers who are men,
bers Of N. r. A."
Johnson exhibited chart he called
"the only significant chart there Is"
It showed that values have shot far
upward, leaving purchasing power
behind.
Even as the new voluntary plan
was completed, the industrial ad-
ministration continued hearings on
codes proposed by different indus
tries. Fridays included lumber, coat
and suit, ship-building and electrical
manufacturing, while steel has been
