NRA PRAISED
BY JOHNSON
(Contirued From Page ID

cietieS sought in vain to end the
baneful practices. Practically every
code now directly forbids employ
ment of children under 16 years OF
age. Industry, labor and government
brought about this shining achieve
ment without any express mandate
in the law.
In hearings on the first 200 codes
more than 1900 unfair and des-
tructive trade practices were dis
closed. Worst of all was the expe-
dent of selling below cost. 1t set up
a vicious circle which ended in des-
tructon of the consumer market
and hysterical competitive under
payment and overworking of en-
ployees. Purchasing power was still
further depressed.
Although earlier attempts at rigid
prce fixing have been abandoned,
the present NRA policy outlaws viii
fully destructive price cutting and
its eyentuality of selling below cost.
The loss leader" which formerly
lured customers into retail stores
is generally prohibited.
Reports Favorable
A multitude of favorable reports
show that the upward trend of re-
covery is reaching all types of in
dustry, business large and small.
The bureau of labor statistics re-
ported in April only two manufac-
turing industries out Of go failing TO
show employment gains over last
year. Every one showed pay roll
gains which enormously increased
purchasing power.
The outbreak Of labor disputes
which inyarisbly accompanies bet
ter times has been mmeasurably re-
lieved through efforts of the Ma
tionaI Labor Board, which has ad-
juSted disputes affecting 100000
employees.
Industrial peace has been brought
TO many industries, and will come
to others, through industrial rela-
ticns boards functioning under the
codes. A special board of this type
swung the automobile industry
away from a serious strike threat
early this spring.
The first anniversary of the day
on which the President signed the
recovery act sees all of American
industry and trade modified in a
practical plan to bring about COM
plete economic recovery and TO as
sure a more secure future for the
whole nation.
The recovery administration, as
such, will not go on forever. shall
( not always guide the blue eagles
flight. I am absolutely certain, how
ever, that a great many lessons
! learned in these trenches, warning
against the sinister elements Of un-
fair competition and oppression OF
labor, never will be lost from our
guidebooks of business economy.

Zonjeros To Act
AS Game Wardens

All zanjeros in the employ OF the
irrigation district were deputized to
act as deputy game wardens for the
protection of quail and pheasants
in the county according TO the
terms of a resolution adopted by
the board at its meeting yesterday.
The board further decided to no
tify all water users this week to
prepare for a possible water short
age and TO prepare their storage
ponds to conserve water for live
stock and domestic uses. The rapid
fall in the Colorado river will make
such conservation necessary, it was
pointed out and unless sufficient
rain falls in the upper watersheds
of the river soon, the shortage
might occur within a short time.

POLICE SEEK
COMP PAN|ONS
Of DEAD GIRL

LOS ANGELES, June l6 U.P)-
With the abandonment of the ten
tative Identification. beautiful
blonde San Francisco dancer" and
the discovery of an emptied am
monia bottle in the apartment. po-
lice arrived today at the belief that
the leap last night of Lucille Young
from her fourth-floor window was
suicide.
Fingerprint records established
the woman's identity as that of Sal
ly Blain, also known as Sally Smith,
well known to Los Angeles police
through her several arrests on NOR
ais charges.
LOS ANGELES, June Is. UP) -
Three persons who accompanied
Lucille Young, pretty 2S-year-old
San Francisco dancer. to an apart
ment on South Westlake avenue
shortly before she hurtled to her
death from a fourth story window
were sought by police today for
questioning.
Entirely unclad, Miss Young
either leaped or fell from the VIM
dow. PaSsersby told police she
screamed in terror as she plunged to
her death.
While police believed she killed
herself, there were no notes or other
evidence to substantiate this theory.
On the other hand the fact that
the screen of the window through
which she fell had not been opened.
presented an unusual circumstance,
according to police.
The apartment house manager
told police that Miss Young, accom-
panied by two men and another
young woman, had rented the
apartment late yesterday. The three
friends, she said, told her that they
had recently arrived from San
Francisco.
These friends then left and the
blonde dancer was apparently alone
last night, the landlady said.
In the apartment police found a
jumbled array of clothing and per-
sonal effects. Miss Young's outer
clothing and her purse had been
tossed into the bathtub, which was
partially filled with water. Her lin
gerie was found in a half-filled
wash basin.
Police said a halfempty bottle OF
whisky was found in the apartment
but there was no evidence that
party had been in progress.
Not entirely satisfied that the
name which the dancer gave the
landlady was her true name, police
were attempting to establish her
identity.

LIFE INSURANCE AND NATIONAL
WEALTH

In 1850 the national wealth of the
United States was about s7.000.oo0. 900.
Life insurance in force totaled s75. 200. 900
-one per cent of the wealth.
By 1900 the national wealth had
risen to sss. ooo.oOo.ooo, and life insur-
ance in force to $500, 900. oOO-ten per
cent of the nations worth.
In 1929 the national wealth was be-
tween ss20,oe0. 900, 900 and s350.000.-
100000, while life insurance policies out
standing aggregated over s100,000,o0
000-elose to a third of the wealth.
This constant progression is indicative
of the attitude of the American people to-
ward life insurance. During the present
century there has been great decentraliza-
ton of wealth, which has given the aver
age man more to spend. As the average
income rose. a steadily ascending per-
eentage of it was applied to life insurance.
Late estimates indicate that ST per cent Of
our people own life policies. 1t is an en-
eouraging fact that the trend is toward the
purchasing of policies of the investment
type, which create estates and protect the
head of family as well as his dependents.
rather than policies which mature only at
the death of the wage Garner.
Hard-headed observers forecast that
life insurance is just on the verge of It's
period of greatest expansion-and that
even its fine record in the past viii look
small compared to that of the future. If
that is true, there need be little worry over
the ultimate economic welfare of the
American people.

SEASON IS OVER WITH SCHEDULE

When schedule ends the season IS over. re-
gardless Of how many games remain unplayed, IN
less the leaders finish IN tie This regulation
was brought ont wildly this year because Of the
elosenesz Of the race IN the National League, but
the fact apparently mas not been sufficiently i'm
pressed on officials at large particularly those in
seaai-pro and amateur leagues.
The question was raised several times before
the Cardinals and Giants furnished a convincing
reminder Of the fact that games still remaining
played eoold not be decided after the schedule
ended II this were NOT true, we would find clubs
with chance to break into first, second third or
fourth money clamoring for the privilege of stag

and there would be no certainty as to when the
season would close.
