The House eliminated an amend
ment by Senator BOrah, Republican
of Idaho, Which would have barred
this restoration of pay to those re-
ceiying more than $4,000 a year, in
cluding members of Congress. 1t also

Praising the Taber proposal, Repre-
sentative Browning. Democrat, of
Tennessee. an influential conservative
veterans leader, said:
i have assurances that if this is
approved, it will be accepted i'll the
Senate in five minutes"
Taber told the House he felt that
under the circumstance" referring
to the threatened presidential veto
this is probably more than you can
get for the veterans any way"
The President can't accept the
Senate amendments?" asked Repre-
sentative McGugin, Republican, of
Kansas.
Il understand not" replied Taber
land I want to tell this House that
you can't destroy this bill by amend
ing it. but you can destroy it by not

House also eliminated Senate amend
mentS which would have benefited
1000 emergency officers of the World
War. and pensions for widows and
dependents of men who died in Navy
dirigible disasters.
Court Ruling Noided.
Steiwer further explained that the
House program eliminates a Senate
amendment which provided that
when a veterans disability has been
adjudicated by a court at 100 per
cent. the Veterans Administration
would have TO accept it at 100 per
cent for other purposes, such as
insurance
With regard to the present status
of the Government pay restoration,
one parliamentarian at the Capitol
gave the opinion that although the
House voted yesterday for restoration
of 5 per cent February l and another
s per cent July l. if the bill goes to
conference. the COnferees would have
wide latitude TO consider the original
House bill passed in January, which
carried no pay restoration for the
present and only per cent on July !
1t is believed, however. that if a
final agreement can be reached on
veterans, the conferees will not go
below the House proposal of yesterday
on Government salaries.
The Senate'S amendments to the
bill had added about s354.OO0 900 in

BUILDING OWNERS
CODE ABANDONED
Deputy N. R. A. Administra-
tor Solves Problem for
Convention Delegates.
SneciaI Disnatch to The Star.


TORONTO, June 23-What had
promised to be one of the most per-
picking problems of the delegates to
the annual convention If the National
Association of Building Owners and
Managers was solved here when word
was received from Deputy AdminiStra-
tor Keith S. McHugh of the N r. A.
that: 1T is our considered conclusion
that it is best to forego further action
on the proposed code for your in
dustry"
This announcement was preceded
by a report of President Frank S.
Slosson and Earle Schulz. Chicago,
chairman of the Code Committee. on
the activities OF the Code Committee
This committee had repeatedly
stressed the point that the industry
could not stand increases in wage
rates or hour reductions without add
ing to its present distress.
Lauds Industry.
1--WE believe" wrote Mr. McHugh,
that the sound course to follow is to
continue to rely on the modified P. f.
A for preservation of the minimum
labor standards now in existence.
In his communication, Mr.. McHugh
lauded the industry on the willingness
to cooperate for the general good OF
business.
The Office and lott building in
dustry," he stated. was among the
first to file a code with the National
Recovery Administration, this being
done on August II, 1888. The indus
try. through your committee at the
same time indicated its approval OF
the purposes of the national indus
trial recovery act and of the President
by promptly applying for modified
Presidents unemployment agreement,
which was granted on August 81. 1888.
So far as we have been able to learn,
there has been wide general accept
ance of this agreement. Your indus
try has further indicated its willing
ness to cooperate as shown by the
relatively few complaints OF non-c0m-
pliance arising throughout the
country"
Program Approved.
Referring to plans for rent stabiliza-
tion, he stated. There are many dlth-
culties associated with such plan
and at the moment at least no prac-
tical solution to the more fundamental
difficulties has been suggested. Fur
thermore, the experience Of the Ma
tional Recovery Administration in CO.
operating with industrial attempts to
fix prices. whether minimum or other
wise has led to the conclusion that.
except in the case of clear emer-
gency, accompanied by demonstrable
and willfully destructive price-cutting,
such price fixing has not generally
been accompanied by the improved
overall result which advocates of such
plans have hoped for them.
While we Go not stand irrevocaoly
committed to this course Mr.. Nc
Hugh wrote. any change from this
attitude would only be effected by the
submission of convincing facts that a
different course on the part Of the
National Recovery Administration is
essential to the public welfare

decorator, has emphasized the beauty

ern touch in furnishing the bed rooms

American furniture. Unusual as it
may seem. these furnishings. are not
out of harmony with the Colonial

In the design of The Star Model
Home the head OF the house has not
been forgotten. A large and attrsc-
lively furnished den has been sup
piled on the ground floor. The deco
rator has equipped this room with fur
niture and knick-knacks that would

portrays fox-hunting scenes.

The exterior of the dwelling is Of
brick veneer with a steeply- pitched

Anxious TO Lend
I'VE have to find the home owners
and would-be home owners to whom
we can advance this great amount of
credit" said Lieber. Many reasons
may be given tor the lethargy Of the
average family about borrowing for
home purposes, but most of those rea
sons are conditioned by depression
attitudes and will have to 1e over
come IN order to do the lending
which our resources now justify. The
important thing which will be con-
tlnually brought to the attention of
individual families all over the lanG
is that many building and loan aSSo-
Citations have money available and are
willing and anxious to place it in
the channels where it will lead other
millions of families to home owner
ship and to up-to-date homes in good
condition.
so many efforts have been direct
ed to relieving the unfortunate bor-
rover of other days that the family
which wishes to undertake a new
obligation on a sound repayable basis
has slipped into the background. The
lending program of the associations
will go over the top if we can locate
these families and help them finance
the homecoming undertakings which
have been SO scarce during the past
four years.
