Roosevelt Makes Import ant Statement Before
 (. of C. of U. 5. IS AGAINST FURTHER REDUCTION OF WAGES Cut throat Competition Must Be Eliminated
 Plans Outlined

WASHINGTON, May B. The Government is ready to give as- sistance to any movement to aid industry when industry. rids itself of the evils of cut-throat compe- tition
 This was pledged last night by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in an address before the Chamber of Commerce of the United States which for several days has argued the question of industrial regulation by government or by business men
 Asks Wage Raise
 Calling attention to the slight but definite upturn in most indus tries with simultaneous rise in most commodity prices" the Pres ident said past experiences 'indicat- ed that when the price levels be- gin to rise after a long period of declining commodity prices, wages which had been previously curtail- ed, Jagged behind the rise of price levels.
 T therefore, ask you to refrain from further reductions in wages of employees and to also increase the wage scales in conformity to the rise in the level of commodity prices. insofar as lies within your power"
 New Work Week Bill
 The President said there is still a lot of work to be done in organ izing legislation to accomplish his program for the nations business and it involves relaxation of the antitrust laws and also apparently involves substitution of the 30- hour week, the bill already passed by the Senate and now before the House.

R E DUCTION IN SALARIES ONE
 CAUSE WHICH
 FORCES DELAY
Principal Differences Ex- pected to Be Ironed Out
 for Adjournment
 This Afternoon

After a session beginning at 9:30 o'clock Thurs sday morning the Eleventh Session of the Alaska Legislature was about ready to adjourn at 3:30 o'clock this afternoon after the longest over time session on record.
 The principal difference be- tween the two Houses was in the 15 per cent salary cut made by the House in the g general appropriation bill. COnferees from the House and Senate who started work shortly after 9 o'clock last night reached an agreement this afternoon fixing salary and wage reductions at 10 per cent.
 Beer Complicates Situation
 While ostensibly the prin- ciple difference between the House and Senate was in the reduction of wage and salary, 
 the House holding out for 15 per cent and the Senate for 8 1/3, in the background turk ed the question, whether beer licenses should be handled by the Federal District Court as provided by the beer and wine control act, or whether the act should be amended to permit the licensing to be done by the Territorial Aud itor.
 This quetsion was raised when the local court yesterday refused to grant a license upon applica- tion made by one of the leading retail grocers of Juneau. And while the Legislature could not agree upon any other method of issuing licenses except through the United States District Court, the House without a dissenting vote con- demned the local presiding Judge for refusing to grant the license and by implication urged his im- mediate removal.
 Senate Blocks Change
 This was not done, however, un- til the Senate had blocked move ment from the House to change the system of licensing from Fed eral to Territorial control. The House, after having been inform ed oi the action of the Court in re- fusing to grant a license to George Brothers, to retail beer, passed an to the Beer and Wine Control Act placing the licensing in the hands of the Territorial Auditor.
 Representatives Blake, Patterson. and Taylor were appointed this aft ernoon by the House to notify the Governor that the House was req dy to adjourn.
 Representatives Lingo, Baronovich and Judson were appointed at 345 o'clock this afternoon to notify the Senate the House was ready to adjourn.
