CHILD'S COLD

TOMMON colds often settle in
" throat and chest where they
may become dangerous. Don't take
chances at the first sniff1e rub on
Children's Musterole.
Children's Musterole is just good
old Musterole, only in milder form.
1t penetrates the skin with warming
tingle and goes to the seat of trouble.
1t gets such marvellous results be-
cause it's NOT just a salve, but a
"cOunteF irFifant" - quick and
helpful in drawing out pain and
congestion.
Used by millions for 25 years. Rec
commended by many doctors and
nurses. All druggists. In three

milk PRODUCERS
TO BOOST PRICES
Dairy Farmers Announce A.
Cent Increase, Effective
October |.

Organized dairy farmers have serv-
ed notice on milk distributors in
Washington that the farm price for
milk will be increased cents a gal
lon effective October /, it was learned
today.
Leading retail distributors declined
to forecast whether compliance with
the demand would result in higher
retail prices.
Along with the 4-cent boost in the
farm price for fluid milk (that which
goes into bottles for home consump-
tion), the Maryland & Virginia Milk
Producers Association plans to ask q
Scent per gallon increase in price for
surplus milk used for cream and man
ufacturing purposes.
Council Visits Farms.
Disclosure Of the plans Of the CO.
operative followed a visit to 3 number
of dairy farms by members Of the
Consumers Council of Washington,
headed by Mrs. John Boyle, jr.
Mrs. Boyle and several other council
members inspected the farms at the
invitation of Frank S. Walker, presi-
dent of the producers association, who
was anxious to convince the consum-
ers' representatives that the farmers
demands for higher prices was justi-
fed. The invitation was extended
after Mrs. Boyle had attacked the
plan to boost prices as unjustified and
served notice her organization would
fight to the last ditch to prevent any
increase in the retail prices.
Plight Is Explained.
AS build-up to obtaining the higher
farm prices, Walker personally called
on the dairy companies which buy
milk from the cooperative and ex-
planned the plight of the producers,
who, he said, have been hard hit by
the drought and the necessity to buy
feed to supplant parched pastures.
The increase will come at q time
when the Agricultural Adjustment
Administration is in the midst of
negotiations looking to the promul-
cation of marketing license for this
city. Hearings on the tentative IL
cense are to be held sometime in
September, and q hot fight is ex-
pected to develop between the inde-
pendent distributors and the So
called trust" dairy, between the in
dependent dairies and the producers
and between the trust" dairy and
the producers.

COURT RULING ASKED
ON BAER KNOCKOUT
Lawyer Sues for Bet Money
Withheld by Carnera
Supporter.

When is q knockout not a knock
out?
That is the problem which was put
up to the Municipal Court today with
the filing of a suit for SIS said to be
involved in the Baer -Carnera fight.
Isadore H. Halpern, an attorney,
of 805 G street, is suing Joe Pugliese,
barber in the Investment Building.
He said Pugliese's employer, Al Peluso,
bet him $40 to SIS that Baer would
knock out Camera. Pugliese was the
stake holder, Halpern said.
The morning after the fight Halpern
was jubilant and hurried to Pugliese to
collect what he considered his win
nings. He found, however, that Peluso
had been there before him and had
collected, claiming that the technical
knockout Baer scored wasn't a real
knockout in the sense of bet.

small industries.
The Secretary said at his press con-
ference that the Chicago district was

would seek to determine finally If the
complaints against banks for not lend
ing were justified.
The investigation is being under
taken with the cooperation of the

FIRST n. R. A. CODE
SUIT IN D. c. FILED
Large Printing Company Ac-
cused of Violating Mini
mum Wage Provisions.

The first suit to restrain a local
concern from allegedly violating
provisions of an N. r. A. code was
filed in District Supreme Court to-
day when an injunction was asked
against the w. F. Roberts Co., Inc,
829 Seventeenth street, one of the
city's largest printing houses. The
company has never subscribed to the
code.
The outcome of the suit is con-
sidered of extraordinary consequence,
since it will set precedent for the
District courts as to the power of
the Government to impress code
provisions on a non-signer.
Justice Joseph w. Cox immedi-
ately signed a rule to show cause, on
which there must be hearing on
or before September IA.
The suit was filed in the name of
the Federal Government under di-
rection Of the Attorney General and
by United States Attorney Leslie C.
Garnett, who was censured severely
last week by the Columbia Typo
graphical Union, No. 101, for delay
in instituting the action. Assistant
United States Attorney John j.
Wilson prepared the suit.
Wage Violation Charged.
The Roberts Co. is charged with
violating minimum wage and maxi
mum hour code provisions and with
failure to post in prominent place
in its work rooms the hours, wages
and employment provisions of the
code. Affidavits of eight employees or
former employees are attached in proof
of the allegations.
Jurisdiction of the court is invoked
under the national industrial recovery
act which is held to support the
are binding on signers, but constitute
the law and hence must be obeyed
by all industry members.
The court is told that a national
emergency existed when the N. l.
r. A. was enacted and that it still
exists. At that time, it is stated
the graphic arts industry was in a
chaotic condition with widespread
unemployment, excessively low wages
and excessively long hours, numerous
bankruptcies and failures and with q
large proportion of industry members
doing business at a loss.
Code Brought Progress.
1t was primarily due to minimum
wage and miximum hour provisions
of the code, the suit states, that the
industry here and elsewhere is making
rapid progress toward emergence from
these chaotic conditions. This progress,
however, will be arrested if the graphic
arts code is not Immediately enforced,
the court is told.
Aftldavits outlining the probable out
come of non-enforcement, made by
Gerald A. Walsh, executive secretary
of the Graphic Arts Association of
Washington, and by Payson Irwin,
deputy division administrator, N. r.
A., were filed with the suit.
The charge is made that the Roberts
companys noncompliance is causing
and will continue to cause:
q. Frustration of the purposes and
policy Of the national industrial re-
covery act.
20. An increase in unemployment
and impairment of the standard of
living among those employed in the
graphic arts trades.
'3. Unfair and illegal competitive
practices, produced through wage and
labor hour violations.
a. A breakdown in morale and
compliance among members of the

Small Attendance Explained
This frequently illustrates why
committee meetings of the Dis
trict of Columbia are not more
largely attended and certainly
ample justification for some bet
ter scheme of government for the
District.
If the Commissioners are given
wider powers this will cure IN
part the difficulties enumerated.
The present District act is
archaic, and a wider grant of
powers to the Commissioners
would mean that only really i'm
portant and large matters touch
ing on District affairs would
come to Congress for hearing and
consideration. .%'
Many of the measures herein
mentioned could be than settled
without reference to Congress
and, in my judgment, this would
