LOCAL BILL OFFERED

Chairman Norton Of the House Dis
trict Committee today introduced a
bill to amend the healing arts practice
act of the District to transfer prose-
cution authority from the United
States attorney to the corporation
counsel.
United States Attorney Leslie C.
Garnett recommended the change. He
said the act is purely local in its ap-
plication and its enforcement should
rest. with the Districts municipal law
enforcement agency. Only in the case
of perjury would the United States
attorneys office retain jurisdiction.

better conditions than we were IL
months ago." Sloan said 1t was the
plain duty Of every citizen to support
the President to "the full extent Of
our ability and resources"
"As our economic strength in
creases," he said in closing, II should
like to see the relaxation Of the re-
strictions and curtailment Of those
things that we have accepted, rightly
or wrongly, as the desirable and neces-
sary instrumentality for Industrial re-
covery. Oh the other hand, we must

terized as the problem in which
every one Of us is most vttally con-
cerned."
"I am convinced that from every
fundamental standpoint, the real in
terests of both employer and employe
can best be promoted through the
route Of the employe representation
plan (the company union).
"' - Unfortunately, the terms OF
the national recovery act with respect
to this important question were very
indefinite-probably necessarily so.
Again unfortunately. until recently
there has been no clear definition to
guide either the employer in the dis
charge of the responsibility which has
been placed upon him or the employe
as to the conditions surrounding his
new opportunity. An important step
forward has been taken in clarifying
the issue.
Sees Union Dominance.
1--WE do not have to be very imagina-
tive to forecast our position should in
dustry fail to recognize and fail to
aggressively deal with its responsible
ity in this matter. There results the
closed shop. American industry would
be dominated by an organization in
no sense interested in the real prob
lens between the individual employer
and the individual employe, but con-
cerned solely with the enhancement
of its own selfish interests. The great
est monopoly the world has yet seen
would be created, and all outside the
law.
THE history of industry in this
country conclusively demonstrates
that, left to his own individual judg-
ment, the American workman has in
general decided that his interests are
outside of national union rather
than inside one"
Speaking in favor of authorizing the
President to deal, as business man,
with other countries with respect to
the question of foreign trade, Sloan
said that Ito continue the policy of
permitting Congress to deal with such
a question Gas foreign trade) is to

In q decisive blow at lottery

agents from use Of the United

day.
The names and addresses of
every agent known to postal au-
thorities has been forwarded to
every post office and Substation
in the country, with orders to re-
turn any mail or money orders
received for them.
The postal lists contained
names of scores of residents of
Canada, Dublin, Havana and scat
tered places, including Alexan-

The ban against Canadian lot

Richberg Says Wife
Banned Sarcasm

NEW YORK, Nov. % U.N.SJ.
Donald R. Richberg, now dubbed
mo. 2" man in the Government
of the United States, stopped US
ing sarcasm in his speeches at
the insiStence of his wife, he ad-

This form of self-denial, he ad-
mitted, might have much to do
with his present popularity among
business men as head of the ma
tionS recovery machine.
His widely quoted speech be-
fore the Merchants Association
in July last year which caused
protests all over the country was
recalled to him.
Gets q Big Laugh
Doubtless there are many busi-
ness men, he had said then in the
first days Of the NRA, who will
be bit uneasy at the thought of
comforting with men who have
spent years in reading or even in
writing books"
In the same speech he referred
to business geniuses whose mo-
mentous decisions have heretofore
been based on reasoning akin to
throwing the dice"
Richberg laughed delightedly
today when the passages were
read to him. A big, broad,shoul-
dered, bald, good-natured man, he
is the equal Of his predecessor,
Gen. Hugh Johnson, in frankness.

J. J. Policy, president of the New Haven Railroad, in his annual report to the stockholders mailed to reach them to-day, reports a deficit of $4,S53,832, after fixed charges, for the year 1883. This deficit, he states, is before guaran- tees on separately operated pro- perties of $1,123,441, but after all lowing for depreciation accruals of $4,371,762. This report further states that 'the freight traffic of the New Haven Railroad for the year 1883 did not compare as fav- orably with the previous year as did that of majority of the other railroads. The report shows, how ever, that during 1881 and 1880, railroad freight traffic in southern New England did not reach the low levels experienced in other parts Of the country.
 The report further points out that during the closing months of 1883 and up to the present time there has been a definite upward trend in both freight and passen- ger traffic of the New Haven Rail- road.
 Operating Revenues Decrease
 Total operating revenues in 1883, according to the report, were $67,- 224,751, showing a decrease of $7,74S,501, or 10.3 per cent under 1882. Freight revenue decreased $2,33S,200, or 5.7 per cent; passen- ger revenue $4,335, ,191, or 17.5 per cent; and all other revenue $1,- 075,11O or 11.7 per cent.

Boston, March 30 - A ratio of
 forty-nine opposed to one in
 favor of the Wagner-Connery bill. llegalizing the National Labor Board as an agency for equalizing the bargaining powers of employers and employees and the settlement of disputes between them is disclosed
 by a poll of a large number of New England manufacturers on this proposed legislation, according to an announcement today by the
 New England Council. The in- quiry was made under the direction
 of the Councils Industrial Com- mittee.
 The response to the Councils in- quiry, to which many replies are still being received, shows that manufacturers throughout New
 England are familiar with the gen.
 eral purport and provisions of the Wagner Bill, that 98 per cent of
 them oppose it's passage, and that practically all of those heard from either have expressed their views regarding the bill to New England senators and congressman, or are doing so. The actual count up to
 last night was 74S against to Is | for the bill.
 Following are typical comments by New England manufacturers to the Councils Industrial committee
 on this legislative proposal: A Main textile manufacturer:
 "The Wagner bill, if enacted into
 law, would place in the hands of
 employees in conjunction with the
 National Labor Board, monopolis-
 tic power that would effectually
 strip the employer of all means to
 bargain or negotiate with his own
 employees in the interest of indus
 trial harmony and continuity of in- dustrial operation. It would force | unionization on workers whether they wanted it or not.' A Rhode Island textile manufac- turer says he is for the bill Eff il

Naugatuck, March 30--The pres ent lease of the Gem Opera house does not make adequate provision for local organizations, the rental fee demanded by the present man angement is excessive, and the present lease allows for a mono poly of the hall, the local organiza- tions who met Monday night to urge changes in the leasing of the hall, today stated in an open letter to the public.
 Other Side Published
 Monday the dramatic organiza- tions and other societies in town were represented at a meeting in the courtroom and it was asked that a lower rental fee be charged town organizations for the use of the Gem theater by the manage ment. The stand of Ralph Pasho, manager of the theater, was car- ried in this paper Wednesday and today the committee representing the societies give a clear, concise statement of their side of the case.
 Their letker follows:
 Waterbury Democrat:
 "The unexpected reaction caused by the publication of the resolution adopted at the meeting of local organizations held Monday night forces the committee to make pulp lie the reasons advanced by those present for having adopted the res- olutien.
 "our primary purpose in meet ing was to take steps to procure g. hall in which local functions could be promoted at a reasonable rental fee. Naturally, the Gem Opera house being the only hall owned by the Naugatuck people, 1t was con sidered at length.
 The discussion brought out the popular feeling that it being our hall we should receive some con sideration when the next lease is offered. Therefore the resolution was drawn ups to be presented to the board of public welfare at its next meeting.
 Lease Inadequate
 Tt is our contention that the present lease of the Gem Opera house does not make adequate pro- vision for local organizations and that the rental fee demanded by the present management is excess sive. The present lease allows for a monopoly of the hall which we feel should not exist ,and which

Walter Perry Green, Jr, of this city, one of the few local boys at Massachusetts Institute of Tech nology, is ranked on the deans ist of undergraduate students of high scholastic standing for the first term of the 1s33-34 year. Green, a Crosby high graduate, is classified as a student of the second rank whose term ratings are 4.00-4.49, approximately 10,3 per cent of the class.
 That a new high record in scholarship has been attained at the Massachusetts Institute os Technology is revealed in the deans list of undergraduate stu dents of high scholastic standing. issued by the institute today. The percentage of students included on this honor roll for last term is the largest in the history of technology
 The names of 723 students, or 35.3 per cent of the entire under graduate body, are listed as hav- ing maintained first, second, or third honor rank in their profes- sional and cultural studies. Many of them are prominent student leaders in athletics, undergraduate publications, and the work of mu- sieal, social and professional or ganizations on the campus.
 A continuous rise in scholastic achievement has been noted at Technology for several years past and is considered significant in view of records which show that classes graduated from M. I. T. and other educational institutions dur ing or soon after previous econ. omic depressions have been out standigly successful in business and professional life.
