and the case reached the Federal
Trade Commission, the worst penalty
faced by the alleged violator of the
code was a citation" for unfair and
illegal trade practices. If actual prose-
cution was necessary or desirable, the
Federal Trade Commission had to fol-
low the same course as the Compli-
ance Division and call upon the De-
partment of Justice for actual court
action. That's as far as either the
commission or the Compliance Divi-
sion could go.
Department Equipped.
The Justice Department, on the
other hand, has access to district at
torneys and Federal grand juries, and
all effective enforcement had event.
ually to take that course.
From the beginning there has been
no love lost between Gen. Johnson's
N. R. A. and the Federal Trade Com
mission. The former administrator
has been not only frank but blunt in
his criticism of the efforts of the
Trade Commission. The commission,
speaking as a whole and sometimes
for individual members, has been no
less critical Of Gen. Johnson's at
tempt to enforce codes. Both have
sought the same end, but eacn has
declared the other failure.
Under the contemplated transfer OF
authority, legislative action will be
necessary since the Federal Trade
Commission was created by statute.
That act will have to be repealed
before the functions it has been per-
forming can be given to another
agency.
AS for N. r. A. compliance, the
President can transfer that authority
by executive order, and while officials
declined to venture guess, it was
implied that he may issue such an
order within the next few weeks and
wait on Richberg's committee to
recommend the repeal Of the Federal
Trade Commission act at the next
session of Congress in January.
Meanwhile, Richberg has insisted
that no sweeping or sudden changes
would be made in present N. r. A..
policies. With the contemplated abo-
lition of the trade commission in
view, it was intimated that the first
change will be the transfer of the
N. R. A. Compliance Division to the
Justice Department by executive or
der, with the order being followed
by new legislation that will place the
functions of the trade commission in
the same department and authorize
a new division or bureau in the JUS
tice Department to take over their
duties.

BRITISH LABOR
PARTY AT CRISIS
ModerateS to Fight Radicals
in Convention Sessions
Tomorrow.
Nv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SOUTHPORT, England, September
19.-The soul of Britain's Labor party
is believed to be at issue in the party
convention, which opens here tomor-
row, and the outcome of battle be-
tween moderates and radicals is ex-
pected to determine Labor's policies
for the next general election campaign.
The radicals, claiming they are
"pure Socialists" are demanding rigid
adherence to genuine Socialist prin-
ciples and mo slipping back into vir-
tual liberalism"
The moderates, including the trade
unionistS, are inclined to steer mid
die course, fearing that too radical
policies would hurt Labor's chances
in the elections.
War-Defense Sore Point.
Tae intra-party dispute centers upon
Socialist principles of war and de-
fense. The executive branch of the
party, after a survey of world condi-
tions, decided to junk the party's pol
icies of fiat opposition to war. Pacifist
Laborites have prepared resolutions
pledging the party to take no part
In any war and to work for unilateral
disarmament as an example to other
nations.
Other resolutions scheduled for
presentation include:
Provision for the socialization of in
dustry and the naturalization of
banks.
Would Abolish Lords.
Abolition of the House of Lords. In
the event the Socialists win the gen.
eral election in 1886, or whenever it
is held, the party would not, under
the lords to meet.
Inclusive insurance for all, covering
health, unemployment and pensions.
Reorganization of the armed forces
of Britain, and revision of the higher
posts in civil and military services.
Elimination of uniforms and dress
tending to cause class differences.
Compulsory reduction of working
hours.
An inquiry into Fascism.
Dictatorships probably will come in
for severe condemnation.
The national union of clerks and
administrative workers will submit a
resolution urging the United States be
importuned to enter the League of
Nations and that the government CO.
operate with the United States to
bring about genuine disarmament and
complete control of the manufacture
Of ornaments.

BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.

THE League of Nations is beconl-
ing a power again. Nations
are f1ocking to its fold. Not
i only has Russia joined that
body, but even Afghanistan
and Ecuador have applied for mem
bership. 1t is doubtful whether the
treasury of the League will be bene-
fitted by the admission Of these last
two applicants, but the secretariat Of
this international society believes that
the cause of peace and goodwill
among nations will profit greatly
when these two nations have Joined.
Despite of the fact that Great
Britain, France and Italy hdpe
supported the entrance of the
Souiets in the League, it Dds not
easy for them to obtain the con-
sent OF the other members.
There has been a good deal of wire
pulling, and even bribery, before the
nations which did not like to be
seated next to the representatives Of
the Communist republic at Geneva
were induced to withdraw their OBJ
lection. The most persuasive argu-
ment in favor of RuSsia's admittance
was that the Soviet have at present
such a powerful army and air force
that the League could not exist
without them.
Something for Vote.
The Portuguese were adamant even
to that argument. They saw good
chance to get something for their
vote. And they did. The British
delegate promised them a reduction
in the import duty for port vine
a drink much relished and consumed
in large quantities in the United
Kingdom.

The French prime minister, CASTOR
Doumergue, is following Mr.. Roose-
velt's example and keeps in touch
with the French electors by frequent
radio speeches. And he told them
aplenty last week. He informed
them that as soon as Parliament
reconvenes in October he will ask for
revision of the French constitu-
ton, which does not answer the needs
Of France any longer. He wants 1t
revised so that the prime minister
should have the same powers as the
British. He wants the president OF
the republic to be able to dissolve
the Chamber without the consent Of
the Senate. and demands that the
initiative and the control of govern
ment expenditure should no longer
rest with the Chamber but with the
government.
In his radio talk Doumergue told
the French electorate that II

NEW DEAL CRUX
|NNEN YORK WAR
Both Parties Lay Battle
Lines Around Policies
of Roosevelt.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. September 2s.-The
Empire States party lines were drawn
strictly over the issue Of the New
Deal" as Democrats and Republicans
launched tonight their crucial Fall
campaigns in President Roosevelt's
home commonwealth.
Delegates to the parties State con-
ventions returned to their home dis
tricts with the coming fight sharply
defined by Numerically opposed plat
forms.
The State Democracy plunged into
the campaign with ringing indorse-
ment of President Roosevelt's policies
and the party's high leaders instruct
ing their lieutenants to battle for
votes on the national administration
record.
G. o. p. Condemns Doctrines.
The Republicans. under control Of
"Old Guard" factions, joined the is
sues firmly by condemntng the basic
doctrines of the Democratic high
command and putting forth proposals,
many of which were in direct conflict
with the ruling party's policies.
State issues were given only sec
ondary attention, but the Democrats
served notice they would make capi-
tai out of charges by the deposed Re
publican chairman, w. Kingsland
Macy, that his own party was dom
mated" by public utility interests.
In contrast with the stormy fac
tional strife in their opponents ranks,
the Democrats were in almost COM
plete accord, renominating their en-
tire ticket, headed by Senator Royal
S. Copeland and Gov. Herber5 H.
Lehman.
Macy Voted Out.
Anti-Macy forces-the Old Guard
went into the Republican convention
with the same dominant strength
shown earlier in meetings of the State
Committee. Headed by F. Trubee Da-
vison, former Assistant Secretary of
War, they ruled the convention and
afterward voted Macy out Of the
Craftsmanship, as had been antici-
pated.
They nominated for Governor the
commissioner of New York City
parks, Robert Moses, who served as
Secretary of State under former Gov
ernor Alfred E. Smith, and has been
one of the Happy Warriors" conf
dants and advisers. The senatorial
nomination went to E. Harold Cluett,
Rensselaer, manufacturer, after at
least two others had declined the des-
ignation.
The Democrats entered the cam
paign, with Postmaster General James
A. Farley again heading the State
Committee.
Democrats Blame Hoover.
The Democratic platform laid o.
the administration of Herbert Hoove-
the entire blame for conditions ex
isting when President Roosevelt took
Office. It declared uncompromisingly
for the continuation of New Deal
policies and accepted without reserva-
ton the Roosevelt leadership as the
prevailing issue before the voters.
The Republican Resolutions Com
mittee specifically credited the Roose-
velt administration for some "help-
full and constructive" measures but
differed vigorously on most Of its basic
policies.

soon as the first news Of the escape
reached the streets, the paper said,
adding that 1t was suggested that Fed
eral authorities be called to conduct
an inquiry, taking the matter en-
tirely away from local and State au-
thorities."
why were they not searched be-
fore being released into the CORRIDOR"
, How did they get their firearms?"
why were the guards caught un-
prepared?"
How did they shoot . clear path
through the front door?"
why were not the visitors to the
prisoners adequately searched and why
were they permitted visitors over the
protest of Richmond police?"
Transfer Plea Ignored.
"Why was the repeated recon-
mendation of the Richmond police
that the men be transferred from the
ancient jail to the State penitentiary
unheeded?"
These arc only q few of the ques-
tions which every citizen Is asking,
the News Leader said.
Detective Sergt. o. D. Carton OF
the Richmond force was in Hastings
Court with another request for the
transfer of the prisoners when the
break occurred.
Capt. James r. Sheppard, jr.. d.
rector Of public safety, had urged the
establishment of a stronger guard over
the desperadoes.
Discovery last Tuesday that some
one had attempted to saw through the
bars Of q cell heightened fears for the
safe-keeping of the prisoners" the
paper added
Richmond police previously had ex-
pressed apprehension at the temporary
confinement of the men in the old
City Jail. The bombing Of the Club
Forest, gangster rendezvous near the
city, Just before the trials, and report
ed threats to q member Of the Mais
Jury, caused their fear Of outside
aid"
Police hurriedly threw q guard
around the Henrico County Jail where
they were holding Misunas, confessed
participant in the fatal hold-up, who
turned States witness to name Le-
genza as the killer and Mais as a
member of the gang. Misunas. who Is
awaiting sentence, said he thought
they would come there to get me-
for SQuealing.
Carpenter, whose car was seized,
gave a graphic account Of his en-
counter with the two desperadoes.

my left running board with a small

mail truck with another pistol" he

caused them to get bit excited. ]

my car, but I locked it and hurled the
keys out of the window just as one of
the men grabbed me and started
pulling me from the car.
1.-The car rolled back into the center
of the street. One man pulled me out
and the other got the keys, which had
fallen on the sidewalk about 20 feet
away. They sped down East Grace
street. turning north on Twentieth
street.
It ran to the telephone and notified
police and I haven't seen my car
