If high official spokesmen are

With only routine matters
scheduled for today, interest cen

the international officers.
Shortly before the close of the
first days business, President
John L. Lewis, veteran of many

the $500 delegates. With the

led to pitched battles on the floor

Lewis, canny and experienced,

CWA PROGRAM
To CONTINUE.
By International News Service

BY International News Service
President Roosevelt today will
ask Congress for $50 million dol
lars with which to continue opera
tion of his civil works program
until the first Of May.
At the same time, he will ask
that 500 million be appropriated
for emergency relief of a general,
direct nature.
The $50 million for civil works
will carry that program through
to its end, as the President sees it.
Demands for continuance of CWA
through spring continued to pour
into the White House, but Mr..
Roosevelt does not think this will
be necessary.
BY May, the giant $500 million
public works program will be
swinging into maximum speed.
Operating in high gear, the Presi.
dent expects this work to absorb
between million and half and
two million unemployed.

Special Dispatch tc The Star.
NEW YORK, June Tin an effort
to regain the goodwill of the inde-
pendent retail druggist, partially lost
through the price-cutting tactics of
cut-rate and chain stores, drug and
cosmetic manufacturers are announc-
ing plans designed to improve the
competitive position of their custom
ers. says the Standard Statistics Co. Of
New York
This action has taken the form Of
the establishment of minimum sug-
gested consumer prices and threat
to withhold merchandise from dis
tributors who fail to cooperate. BY
this method, it is expected that the
evil of price cutting will be eliminated,
which obviously will rebound to the
benefit of the independent dealer.
Local druggists, therefore, should
be in a position to compete more effec-
lively and will be more inclined to
promote advertised products. Such
action will not only curb the move
ment to substitute private brands. but
will also improve the financial stand
ing of the retailer. facilitating manu-
facturers collections and reducing
credit losses.
