No Time Extension After
Jan. | Called Boon to
Treasury.

State insistence on purchase of
1884 automobile license plates, with
out extension of time after Jan. /,
has swelled the Golfers of the state
treasury, according to figures re-
ported today to Governor Paul ".
McNutt
Total receipts of all funds in the
automobile license department from
Dec. l, 1888, when new plates were
first put on sale, to Feb IA, 1884,
amounted to $5,228,1599 the report
showed. This figure was not reached
last year until July l, according to
Frank Finney, department chief.
Receipts for 1884 plates alone
amounted to S4902,92755 for the
period, Mr.. Finney said Fees now
are being received at the rate of
$4,000 a day, and it is estimated
that the 1884 plate total will equal
the 1888 total by March 81.
Gasoline tax receipts also were
cited to show that enforcement of
the motor license law caused very
few motorists to forsake the road.

Times staff Writer

MFRS. c. o. ROBINSON, Times
WI hobby writer, has found the
answer to that perpleXing mod
ern problem-what to do with
leisure time? Critics have per-
sistently hurled the cry that the
modern age is of machinery and
standardization.
If such is the case, Mrs. Rob-
inson has escaped successfully the
curse of crisp modernity. Roam
ing throughout the state looking
for old houses, harboring antiques,
she is brought into contact with
the fragile gentility of past day.

of the soil. He holds an auction

round of these sales, picking
up articles passed down from
generation to generation and with
no practical value to the owners,
Mrs. Robinson says that she has
found many rare objects, deli
cately carved furniture, old
shawls, glass and coverlets in this
fashion.
An avid collector, as soon as
she has as many antiques as she
can conveniently have in her
house, she turns to other types of
collecting She is an amateur
and has no ambition to become a
dealer.
MFRS. ROBINSON was born in
NI Rushville and educated in
the public schools there. She was
graduated from Indiana univer-
sity, where she was member of
Kappa Theta sorority.
Her initial plunge into the
newspaper world was writing

Upon her marriage, she moved
to indianapolis. Her husband
fortunately shares her interest in
antiques and when he travelled
about the state she went with
him, securing around for precious
articles.
She expresses her views on the
hobby column she conducts as:

interested in a subject and gives

CODE CHANGING
is CHARGED BY
BARROW BOARD
Tampering Laid to Johnson
in Report; Searching
Inquiry Urged.

By United Press
WASHINGTON, June 12-The
unofficial text of the Darrow boards
second report, new attack on NRA
oppression of small business, was re-
vealed today. The document covers
thirteen more codes and levies its
strongest criticism against the retail
trade code.
Other codes covered are petro-
1eum, bedding, boot and shoe, &C.
ment, coffee, electrical manufac-
turing, lumber, merchandise ware
housing, plumbing fixtures, retail
food and grocery, embroidery and
lead pencils.
Principal criticisms were:
Trade associations controlled by
large firms dominate code authori-
ties.
Production control measures
throttle small units and raise prices.
Basing point systems raise prices
and hamper small competition.
Lumber and cement codes ham,
per recovery through elimination of
competitive bidding and high prices.
Complaints against the electrical
manufacturing embroidery and
warehousing codes were dismissed as
based on misunderstanding.
The board took sarcastic notice of
the recent MIRA order regarding
price-f1xing and continued its at
tack on the administration of Gen
eral Hugh S. johnson.
espon bill ity- for sinister
changes in the retail trade code was
placed upon General johnson and
the board recommended most en-
phatically that all codes, once
adopted, should be free from left
handed manipulations wit on
notice, unless it is desired to cast
the whole experiment of the national
recovery act into the hands of ir-
responsible dictatorship"
Changing of retail code provisions
after its approval by the industry
and before submission to the Presi-
dent was characterized as IAN ar
hitrary exercise of power that seems
to demand searching inquiry on even
graver grounds than those of Geo.
nomic justice"
Retail code features most strongly
criticised were weakening of original
underselling provisions, truth-in-ad-
vertising claims, and the labor
markup provision.
we hold that the code should
be restored exactly to the form in
which it was originally drafted and
adopted" said the report.
