INCREASED TEETH
SOUGHT IN N. R. A.
Green Charges Failure to
Attain Economic De-
moCracy.

By the Associated Press.
A demand for more teeth in the
new N. r. A., empowering it to force
reluctant industries into line in drive
for economic democracy" has just
been voiced by the recovery units
Labor Advisory Board, headed by Will
liam Green.
Declaring there had been "outstand-
ing failures" under N. r. A. to achieve
such democracy, the advisers told the
Administrative Board, headed by Clay
williams, that it is not enough to rely
on voluntary action" by industry.
THE experience so far shows" they
said in a memorandum made public
last night, that this can only result
in stalemates or deliberate inaction in
many important industries"
Special Board Urged.
"We therefore recommend" the
memorandum continued, that the act
be amended to give power to a special
board, on which labor shall have equal
representation, to impose labor codes
on any industry which has not volun-
tarily presented an acceptable code, to
make amendments to any code which
in the boards judgment requires
amendment, and to apply section Ia
of the act to any industry, trade or
group which has not been codifled."

ing men, the board sought labor rep
resentation on all code authorities and
better compliance machinery. Hun
dreds of thousands of workers, it said,
are now without the protection of
minimum wage, maximum hour and
collective bargaining provisions be-
cause some industries have failed to
obtain codes.
Want Chance to Organize.
1--WE believe" said the memoran-
dunn, that the means to attain united
action of labor and management de-
pends upon giving labor the same op-
portunity to organize for collective
action that has been accorded to en-
ployers in code procedure And, fur
ther, in giving labor an equal oppor-
tunity with management in the admin
istration of the industrial laws which

Source ofAmber

[ AVE you ever noticed masses of pitch or
resin clinging to the bark of a pine tree,
and thought how much like amber it looked?
And no wonder, for amber is merely pitch or
resin changed somewhat and hardened by
countless years beneath the earth.
The variety of pine which produced most
amber once grew where the Baltic and the
North Seas now lie. This land gradually
submerged. Later, violent storms would cast
large pieces of the amber up on the shore The
ancents valued it highly and credited it with
mysterious powers, chiefly because it becomes
electrified when rubbed. In fact our word
electricity is derived from elektron. the Greek
name for amber.
Today some amber is still obtained by pick
ing up fragments washed ashore by the waves,
but most of it is mined. The chief source is
East Prussia, although it is found in small
quantities in many other countries.

introduced Hicky and they chatted for q

BY midnight the other members of the
Duncan household were sleeping soundly. When
Ronnie and Hicky stole from their room the
house was in complete darkness save for q
light burning in the downstairs hall.
Silently they crept toward the front room
which Mr.. Herzog occupied. Without a sound,
Ronnie eased the door open. Safely inside,
they closed the door softly and turned on the
light.
"Now." whispered Ronnie, hurrying to the
bureau. Gently he pulled open the top drawer
Then he uttered low cry. "The automatic'S
gone!"
He probably has it with him." said Hicky
in hushed tone. But come on! Let's get
