SECTION IA
STRIKE BASIS
Secretary Perkins Says lg-
norance and Misinterpre-
tation Widely Seen
By LYLE c. WILSON
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Aug. Ia. (UP)
Secretary of Labor Frances Per-
kins yesterday gave official sane
ton to the widely held belief that
the NRA guarantee of labor's
right to bargain collectively is
major factor in the nationwide
strike epidemic.
Miss Perkins attributed the
1884 strike wave to economic re-
adjustment and general misunder-
standing of Section IA of the
National Industrial Recovery Act.
That section guarantees collective
bargaining.
General Hugh S. Johnson, NRA
administrator, saw trouble coming
five months ago. He warned then
that the country was moving to-
ward the worst strike epidemic in
its history.
The strikes arrived on schedule.
A great background of minor dis
pute was almost obscured by SEN
sational violence in Toledo, o.,
Minneapolis, Mimi, Milwaukee,
Wis, Kohler, Wis, and in San
Francisco. The latest strike head
liner is the walkout of $500 en-
ployes of the Aluminium Company
of America, dominated by the
Mellon family of Pennsylvania.
Miss Perkins implied in discuss
ing labor conditions that the troop
movements and violence of more
publicized strike areas have given
the public an exaggerated idea of
labor troubles.
81 don't think the situation is
alarming" said the cabinet lady,
although l am concerned about
it.
"Section IA is new statute
not completely understood by la
Dor or employers. We have resis-
lance on the part of employers
sometimes based on ignorance,
sometimes on a misunderstanding
and sometimes on deliberate mis-
Interpretation. When IA is fully
understood, we shall avoid great
many strikes"
Miss Perkins stood by her much
challenged opinion that labor UNI

RFC Is Asking
Chicago Bank
To Return Loan

WASHINGTON, Aug. IS. (UP)
Officials of the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation are urging
the Central Republic Bank and
Trust Co., of Chicago to repay
outstanding portions of the $780,
100000 loaned to it by the RFC
in June, 1882, it has been learned
here.
Of the total loan, which fell
due in December of 1882, $780,
261,997 is unpaid and the bank
is $3,O00,O00 in arrears on inter-
est charges, RFC Chairman Jesse
H. Jones said. -,
Jones explained that no special
drive for collection of the loan IS
going on, however, pointing out
that it is customary to make ef-
forts toward collection when pay
ments lapse on any loan.
The loan achieved much noto-
rietv because Charles G. Dawes,
chairman of the board of the
bank, had resigned as RFC board
chairman only a few days before
it was granted.
Jones declined to comment on
the amount of security held by
the corporation against the note,
simply saying that it was suffl-
cient to cover the advance when
made. It is understood that ap-
proximately $10,000,000 of the
collateral was in insult securities.

TAX RATEFOR
LAUREL PARK
IS Held TO 81
Will Raise $500 for Cur
rent Expense; Payment
of Tax Improves

The board of commissioners OF
Laurel Park has fixed 81 as the
tax rate for 1934-'35, Fletcher
Roberts, clerk and tax collector,
announced today.
The rate is the same as the one
in effect for the 1933-'34 fiscal
year, and is intended to raise
$4,000 of revenue on a valuation
of approximately $65O,OOO.
Beginning in 1927 when the
Laurel Park tax rate was 81, econ
omies in the operation of the town
government have enabled the
commissioners to make reductions
in the levies as follows: 1928,
$1.50; 1929, $1.70; 1880, SIPS;
1881, $1.65; 1882, SLAB; 1888,

persons of more liberal new deal
leanings was believed imminent
today.
The three officials expected to
relinquish their posts are:
Eugene R. Black, conservative
Atlanta, Ca, banker, and Roose-
welt appointee as governor Of the
Federal Reserve board.
Adolph Caspar Miller, one-time
adviser of President Hoover and
a member of the Federal Reserve
board since its formation in 1914.
His term expired August 9.
E. G. Bennett, Utah banker and
Republican director of the Fed
eral Deposit Insurance Corp, ap-
pointed less than a year ago by
President Roosevelt.
All three men are rated as
conservatives" and possibly, are
not entirely in sympathy with the =
monetary and banking steps OF
