JOHNSON DECLARED
GENIUS BY MOLEY
Says History Will Call Him Man
Who Gave Industry Start on
Self-Government.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, September 26.
Raymond T. Moley, editor and ad-
wiser to President Roosevelt, arriving
here by plane last night to visit his
mother, described Gen. Hugh johnson
as "aS near an authentic genius as
any man ever saw"
Il introduced johnson to Franklin
Roosevelt in April, 1882" Moley said.
THE last time I saw him was in New
York two weeks ago and he was just
as loyal as any one could be.
History will say about johnson that
he found American industry in a state
of chaos and left it with the elements,
or at least the beginnings, of self
government.
obviously, the first job has been
done as look at it. Bringing about
a semblance Of order and government
in industry was step No. /. Step No.
will be to create ways by which the
new laws can be interpreted and en-
forced to determine the extent to
which industry can govern itself and
what will be left for the Government
to do"
Moley said it would be terribly I'M
fortunate for any one to say that
johnson was forced out of the Ma
tional Recovery Administration
After a short rest in his mothers
home at nearby Berea, Moley was
scheduled to leave this morning for
New York.

BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
President Roosevelt found a topsy-
turvy White House on his return to-
day.
Remodeling work at the executive
offices was far from finished. Piles
of building materials still cluttered the
yard. Wheelbarrows numbered over
the steps that business callers use
in normal times. Hammers beat a
steady. loud tattoo. Building FORE
men said it would take another
month, at least, to finish the job.
The worst of the racket, however,
was over. Riveters finished their ear
splitting business weeks ago.
White House aides said the rest Of
the noise wouldn't bother Mr.. Roose-
welt much.
He will work-until the remodeled
ana enlarged Offices are completed
in the blue room one the first floor
OF the White House proper, well sep
arated from the construction din by
three thick walls and a broad rose
garden.
So crowded are the temporary
quarters that the cabinets table and
chairs are in the room, too.
The deadline for moving back to
the executive offices is late November.

aide explained, before the social sea-

Radicalism.

CHICAGO, September 26.-Clarence
barrow last night declared the resig-
nation Of Gen. Hugh S. johnson spelled
doom for the N r. A.
The veteran lawyer recently was at
odds with the general when Darrow
and his committee made a survey of
operations of the N. R. A. and criti-
cized strongly portions Of its activities.
I'm not. as you know, true be-
lever in the N. r. A." he said, "but
Gen. johnson is the N. r. A. and
when he goes it will hasten its van
ishment into thin air, a demise for
which I believe every one will be
glad"
II do not, however, believe that
the passing of Gen. johnson will tend
to change the complexion of the ad-
ministration to pave the way toward
radicalism."
Frank Knox, publisher of the Chi
cago Daily News, however, voiced the
opinion that there was feeling that
Johnson's retirement presages more
extreme form of governmental control
of industry and trade

OLD-AGE PENSIONS
FOR j. S. STUDIED
Presidents Support of Plan
Prompts Analysis of
State Experience.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
President RooSevelt's promise to seek
old-age pension legislation by the next
Congress has prompted leaders to
ponder three questions:
Whether it should be compulsory or
optional with the States; how the
money is to be raised, and whether it
should be an outright Federal grant
or be handled on a matching basis
with the States?
Much information on experiences
with pension plans is available to leg
islators. Mandatory State statutes
have been proved more successful than
optional. Twenty-eight States, Alaska
and Hawaii now have old-age pension
laws. Twenty-three are mandatory.
At the end Of 1888 pensions actually
were being paid in only Is States and
Alaska. These were assisting 115,547
persons at a cost of $25, $780, 48 year.
New York still was far in the lead,
ers and SO per cent of the outlay.
51,106 on New York Rolls.
New York had 81, 1O6 pensioners on
the rolls at the end of 1888. They re-
ceived 1882, $780, Miss Florence E.
Parker of the Federal Bureau of Labor
Statistics, who made separate sur
vey, said the number of beneficiaries
appears to have reached the peak
there and now was on the decline.
A Labor Department survey dis
closed growing difficulty with re-
gard TO funds, especially in States
where the county bears the whole
cost"
In IS of the 80 States and Terri
tories having old-age pension systems
the applicants must have reached IS
years of age; in IA States 10 years,
and in one, North Dakota, SO.
Seven of the laws provide that the
State shall pay the whole cost, nine
provide for State aid to counties and
IA place the entire cost on the county.
Source of Funds Varies.
Until 1888 all the laws provided
funds for pensions through taxation,
with the benehciaries putting up no
money. Several of the II statutes en-
acted since then provide for poll or
per capita tax. Some of the money
comes from taxes on horse racing and
liquor. Other States make appropria-
tons from general tax reserves.
The required period of State resi-
dence varies from IS years in Arizona
to 5 years in Delaware.
The rate of pension ranges from
$3.50 a month in North Dakota to s35
a month for males and S45 for fe-
males in Alaska. Most States pay SIS
or $50.
In Alaska and Delaware the act is
administered by State agency, in
Iowa, Maine, Michigan, New York,
Ohio and Pennsylvania effective next
December) by county boards under
State supervision, and in the remain
ing jurisdictions by the county au-
thorities.

UNION SEEKS STRENGTH.
Election to Decide Representation Is
Eyed in Workers Drive.


BY the Associated Press.
The first objective of the United
Textile Workers intensive organization
drive is victorious showing in secret
elections, to be ordered by the Gov
eminent, at which the workers will
decide who is to represent them In
negotiations with their employers.
Important, but just now the object
OF secondary emphasis, is the actual
number of new union cards issued as
a result of the campaign which began
strike. The elections will be the real
test Of the unions strength, and 1t Is
concentrating upon them.
Discrimination Alleged.
Labor leaders outlined this situation
yesterday as they made ready to file
complaints that discrimination was
being practiced against those who
Joined the strike. They will be lodged
with the Textile Labor Relations
Board, soon to be appointed by Presi-
dent Roosevelt under the strike settle
ment plan proposed by his Mediation
Board.
Francis j. German, who was the
national leader Of the strike, said
such discrimination was so widespread
in the South that in many mill centers
there was sentiment for resumption
of the walkout. He added he was
counseling patience until the new
board has an opportunity to take
charge of the situation.
Numerous mills in the South con-
tinued closed yesterday, the second
working day since the strike ended.
In the North, also. the doors of many
plants stayed shut. The majority Of
the industry, however, resumed opera
tons, largely with q full pre-strike
force Of workers.

TALMADGE SCORES|
j. s. IN BUSINESS
Georgia Governor, at Fair,
Saws Government Role
Cannot Last.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, September 26.-Gov-
.rnmental participation in private
business was criticized yesterday by
Gov. Eugene Talmadge of Georgia
In speaking on the Georgia day pro-
gram at a Century of Progress Ex-
position.
As a climax to the days events,
Gov. Talmadge crowned Miss jose
phine Bowling, a pretty, blue-eyed,
brown haired girl from College Park,
Ga, queen of Georgia peaches"
This 16-year-old girl, who quietly
and smilingly accepted her rosebud
crown, was picked from 81 Georgia
girls.
Cannot Last, He Says.
The participation of Government
In business cannot last, Gov. Tai
madge told his audience in the court
of Hall of States.
1t is the opinion of the chief ex-
ecutive of the Cracker State that
government should be an umpire or
referee, not an active participant in
business.
Il hold this to be a fundamental
principle and when we have returned
to it, as I think We shall, we Will
have turned the corner" he said.
AS he sees it, the big need in
America today is a reduction in the
tax burden.
If the processing tax were written
of there wouldn't be any farm prob
lem in this country he said. but,
of course, a lot of patronage jobs
would be lost"
Dawes Praises Georgia.
The Governor was introduced by
Wiley L. Moore of Atlanta, chairman
of the Georgia Commission to the
World Fair. Rufus c. Dawes, presi-
dent of the exposition. praised
Georgia for its fine participation in
the fair.
Bearded and wearing dusty over
alls, Ralph Pullen, %, of McRea,
Ga.-Gov. Talmadge's home town
took a bow as the driver Of an OK
cart from his home State to the
World Fair. The OK, dubbed Mac,
with the cart he had pulled 1000
miles, was hitched at the edge of the
platform.

n. R. A. PERSONNEL.
CHANGESLOOM|NG.
Aides Expected to Leave
After Johnson Goes
October IS.

BY the Associated Press.
Broad changes in personnel of
N. r. A. appeared likely today with
the resignation of Hugh s. johnson
as head of that agency.
The gradual departure Of many of
Johnson's advisers after he leaves on
October is was regarded as certain.
A movement was under way, however,
to hold the organization In line until
President Roosevelt announces reor-
ganization plans.
Blackwell Smith, who flied Donald
r. Richberg's place as general coun-
sci, and Leon Henderson, chief of
the Research and Planning Division,
for some time have had their resig-
nations on Johnson's desk. With the
administrator departure, however,
they were reported prepared to stay
until Mr.. Roosevelt indicates his views.
Leave Ends November 1.
Col. George A. Lynch, the executive
officer, is on leave Of absence from the
Army This leave expires November
l and, if possible, Lynch would like
to leave earlier for a vacation.
Lynch's assistant, Col. George
Brady, will remain as long as he is
wanted. He said today that he didn't
see how Johnson's departure will af-
feet industry's interest in N. r. A"
Two division administrators-C. E.
Adams and George Bulkley-were re-
garded certain to return to private
life. Both have overstayed the time
they agreed originally to devote to N.
r. A. The same was true of A. r.
Clancy, field compliance administra-
tor, who has been with the agency
nearly two months longer than the
six he promised.
Robinson Resignation Waits.
Miss Frances Robinson. Johnson's
personal assistant and second most
prominent figure in N. R. A., was said
by officials not to have submitted a
formal resignation as yet. Her with
drawal with johnson, however, was
taken for granted.
Edward F. McGrady, Assistant Sec
rotary Of Labor, who has advised john
son on labor problems since N. r. AS
beginning, was expected to lessen his
close association with the Blue Eagle
organization unless President Roose-
welt should name him to one Of the
new posts to be created.
Sol Rosenblatt, another division ad-
ministrator, said that right now there
is a job to be done here and I am
sticking to that job"
Murray Also to Stay.
Another staying was Barton w.
Murray, one of the original group
who Joined johnson.
While officials were reticent about
discussing their plans pending more
certainty as to N. R. AS future, these
division administrators were expected
to remain:
Robert Houston, Armin w. Riley,
Lynton Collins, PrentiSS Coonley, l..
H. PEBBLES and James F. Battley.
George L. Berry, another of john
sons close friends, long has desired
to return to his oldtime job as head
Of the International Pressmen's Union.
He has remained out Of loyalty to
johnson and was being urged to stay
on for the present.

Senator Wagner did not fail to take
cognizance of the criticism which has
been heaped upon the New Deal by
its opponents. He denied that there
was any Recommendation or die
tatorship" coupled with the policies
OF the President.
ITO make manifest and to effect
uate the will of the people themselves
Is not dictatorship" he asserted. 1T
Is the essence of democracy. 1t is the
keystone of the New Deal"
Says Policies Constitutional.
He denied that any of the New Deal
policies were in violation of the Con-
stitution.
Our Constitution" he said, sis not
a wooden idol, but a living idea; our
Government is not an eighteenth CEN
tury strait jacket, but an eternal
force capable of serving the ever-ex-
panding needs of America. We pre-
serve the oldest ideals. but We do not
hope to spin them with the old-fash-
toned spinning wheel or reach them
upon an oX-cart."
Taking up the charge that the New
Deal has robbed the American citizen
of individualiSm, he said the Repub-
lican high command of today has not
retreated single inch from its I'M
tenable position of 1882.
1T still ascribes political motives
to every humanitarian endeavor. 1t
still asks the helpless to help them
selves"
While speaking mainly on the New
Deal, Senator Wagner turned for a
moment to pay personal tribute to
President Roosevelt and Gov. Lehman.
In service as in conquest the source
of our inspiration is Franklin D.
Roosevelt" he declared. He domi
mates the scene. Whittier he leads
America follows, because the path
which he travels rises not to mere
personal ascendency, but to national
welfare"
