The present nationalist trend will
result in war and chaos, Carl w.

The federal government, he de-
clared, is engaged in a vast scheme

to tell communities what to do and
how to do it,
The people, Ackerman said, must
determine whether "the citizen eX-
lists for the state or the state for
the citizen and as it is a question
which should be decided by the peo-
pie rather than by the federal gov
eminent, it is a problem of the
press, the school and the church
and should be presented as such be-
fore congress extends again practic-
ally unlimited authority to the Pre-
ident."
I'm 450 cities" he said, city gov
ernments have been put on busi-
ness basis, and in California, Vir-
ginia and North Carolina, changes
have been made in county govern
ments which prove that local COM
munities can manage their own at
fairs honestly and efficiently with
out advice or subsidy from the fed
eral government
Two systems of planning are
needed today, Ackerman said; A
national system based upon the well
fare of the country as whole and a
local system of planning based upon
the welfare of the citizen in his di-
rect relationship to the government.

United Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, May 21.-Clar-'
ence Darrow, gray old master of
the defense, told the American
people today that their only hope
was substitution of socialism for
the NRA.
The major blow of the broadside
attack on the NRA by the Darrow
board was a charge that it is DOM
mated by big business and allows
growth of monopoly and choking
of small businesses.
And as so often in the past, the
blunt, bitter words of the fighting
counsel set controversy storming
across the country. Darrow's latest
and probably his last effort for
principles he holds dear seemed
destined to become his most FAM
Gus.
The hope for the American peo-
ple," he said in the report Of his
national recovery review board on
the NRA,' lies in the planned use
! of Americas resources following
sccialization."
11uSii ~ OoiiiAoOAi ACAoNSly IdAtAAAi-
istrator led the attack with a Phil
| lipic charging:
"A more superficial, incorporate
and inaccurate document than the
report, I have never SEEM"
Johnson called for abolition OF
the Darrow board. Darrow wants
the NRA abolished and the Fed
eral Trade Commission substituted
in its place.
The part the report would
play in congressional debate and
the fall elections was uncertain.
But one thing appeared inevitable
that the NRA was in for such
a discussion and denomination
as governmental agencies have sell
dom had.
1t was noted that of specific
complaints made by the Darrow
board concerning the several codes
studied the NRA has already acted
in a number of instances to re-
move the grounds of criticism.
Papers Favor johnson
First newspaper editorial crit
icism was siding with johnson in
his claim that the Darrow board
