 Reports Are Needed
 Richberg declared that exact re- ports of production, prices. wages, and similar informa- tion is necessary for the economic security of industrial civilization.
 Regarding a change in the con- ception of the antitrust laws, Richberg said they were never in- tended as a restraint upon agree ments to compete fairly.
 He upheld the principle of col- lective bargaining for labor.

 The legislation, based on the report, it not expected to be in- troduced until after the Christmas holidays.
 In a general way the report pro- posed Government similar to that of the Dominion of Canada, each Province having it's own leg islature and a general legislative body for the entire country but with powers more limited than those of the Dominion of Can ada.

AUGMENTATION
 CAMP AICN WILL
 START AT 0 NCE
City-wide Movement to Be Launched Purposes
 Are Explained

Juneau is to have city-wide modernization and improvement campaign as part of the National Better Housing Program sponsored by the Federal Housing Adminis- tration.
 This was announced yesterday at the meeting of the Executive Board of the Juneau Better Hous- ing committee.
 ''The purpose of the campaign" said Chairman J. J. Connors, lis to enable, our city to get as large and immediate benefits as possible from the. National Housing Act.
 "The Federal Government has provided a plan under which local lending institutions can make mon- ey available to property owners for repairs and improvements at the lowest charges ever offered for this type of loan.
 Our purpose will be to inform every property owner in the city how he can take advantage of this new financing plan and of the de- sirability of making necessary im- provements to his property at this time.
 Important Effect
 This campaign" Chairman Con- nors continued, twill have an im- mediate and most important eff feet on every type of business in the community. It will, of course, benefit the building industry first, and there is no industry which has been harder hit than building and there are few which are so inn portant to this community. But it will also have direct effect on all other lines of activity.
 Approximately 75 cents of eve- cry dollar spent for repairs and improvements go to local labor. Most of the money they receive in wages is immediately put back into the channels of retail trade. Bills are paid. Purchases are made of food, clothing, and such necessi- ties, then of other goods and lux uries.
 Work To Be Given
 More than 80 cities held mod ernization and improvement cam paigns in 1932-33 similar to the one we are now planning for Ju- neau. These campaigns resulted in an average expenditure of ap- proximately $10 per capita for re- pair and improvement work, and at that time there was no financ- ing plan such as now available under the National Housing Act.
 Should we be able to do in our city as well as those earlier campaigns, we would give rise to a tremendous increase in all lines of business, for every dollar taken out of idle savings and paid in wages multiplies many times in the course of a year.
 Helpful Campaign
 Our campaign will also be most helpful" Chairman Connors point ed out. s'in relieving distress among the unemployed.
 T know the people of Juneau will get behind this campaign and back it to the finish. It is real opportunity for us to improve To- cal business conditions, to relieve distress, and to increase property values and beautify the city.
 There is real need for mod ernization work. Too much of it

NEW MIRA LEGISLATION IS OUTLINED
Body to Settle Conflicting Policies
 ---That's NEG, Headed by Richberg
By CARL c. CRANMER

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-Donald R. Richberg, executive director of the National Emergency Council lis he assistant President, super Cabinet head, premier advisor, coordinator-in-chief, or right hand chore man to the President?
 All these terms and more have been used to describe the position of the suave labor lawyer who writes novels and poetry in his spare time, since he has emerged as the chief of the biggest of the series of coordinating agencies that have been set up by the new deal"
 The national emergency coun- cil-NEC-was created in Decen- Der, 1883, and at first was design ed as an agency to coordinate various field and information ser vices of the government.
 Embracing at first only the heads of the Interior, Agriculture, Com merce and Labor Departments, the administrators of MIRA, AAA, re- lief, farm credit, home loans and consumers counsel, it was of less importance than the executive council created in July, 1853, con- sisting of all members of the cab inet as well as the directing heads of the nine recovery agencies that had been set up a tthat time.
 By the latest executive order NEG has absorbed this early '.su- per cabinet"
 Gigantic Cam Shaft"
 NEG draws to the same confer ence table each two weeks not only all members of the cabinet and directly or indirectly all the emergency agencies, but a gf@ap of the most important permanent administrative agencies of the gov- ernment as well. Only two or three of the permanent agencies, such as the interstate commerce commission, United States tariff commission and veterans adminis- tration, are left out.
 NEG may be described as a gi- gantic cam shaft designed to keep about 30 government cylinders, be- sides few auxiliary cylinders, clicking in order
 It is body to settle conflicting policies, and Richberg heads it.. Not only that. he also heads an industrial emergency committee that has become a subcommittee . of NEG, and that is supposed to advise the administrative board of NEA, and to coordinate that ag- ency with relief, and the depart mets of labor and interior.
 Advisory" To President
 As a matter of recovery poli- cies the council is advisory to Richberg and Richberg is advisory to the President.
 Not only do practically all the threads of recovery policy go through sitting process in Rich berg's hands, but an extensive or ganization of NEG itself in under his control. This organization reaches into every state.
 NEG occupies two floors in a downtown Washington bank build ing. Its staff in Washington and AS state offices consists of nearly 800 persons. Most of the re- mainder, in the field, are consid- cred really a part of the federal housing administration organiza- tion, since state directors and staff have been devoting most of their attention to organizing local cam paigns for home modernizaion. NEG attempts to coordinate not merely by discussion in Washing ton. Each state director every two weeks submits a written report on how recovery policies are working, fConti1ued on Page Two)

C. OF C. THANKS GOV. TROY FOR
 AVIATION HELP
Luncheon Meeting Featur- ed by Crowded Busi-
 ness Program

Out of mass of important bus mess details which concerned Ju- neau's Chamber of Commerce at it's weekly noon luncheon at Bail ey's Cafe today, stood one signal act of approval voted unanimously by that body.
 That act was relative to the exclusive announcement in yester- days Empire concerning the im- mediate development of a Class A aviation field at Juneau. The act came in the form of a formal resolution thanking Gov John w. Troy, the Pacific-Alaska Airways and the Chambers own aviation committee for their splendid work in bringing this needed improve ment to the city.
 Judge George F. Alexander mov- ed the motion after several speak CTS had indicated that the Coun- cil desired to thank the agencies that had worked for the announc- ed airport.
 One of the earlier speakers was R. E. Robertson, chairman of the Chambers aviation committee. He declared that Col. Charles E. Lind bergh, national air hero, had been instrumental in insisting on a north-south as well as east-west runway for the field.
 M S. Whittier, a member of Robertson's committee along with R. J. McKanna, called the Cham ber's attention to Governor Troy's constant enthusiasm for the pro- posal.
 Judge Alexander, declaring that the Chamber should not lightly pass by it's thanks, moved the for nal resolution. His motion was seconded by James J. Connors. The vote was unanimous.
 Con.nittee Nominations !
