CLEANERS DROP
CODE; new NRA
PUZZLE ARISES
Action Is Prompted by
Abandonment of Price
Fixing Rules.
BIZ United Press

DU CHtLOU TtSo
WASHINGTON, June 21.-To the
many problems of the NRA today
was added another-what to do with
industries where price sterilization
has been abandoned and which now
claim they can not pay code wages
or maintain code hours.
The problem became more acute
today when the cleaning and dyeing
industry with 1000 plants, $4,000
shops, and $4,000 workers an
nounced withdrawal of it's code. The
laundry industry abandoned the
Blue Eagle several days ago.
Both industries told similar
stories. They wanted to continue
under a code, but could not be-
cause Administrator Hugh S. john
son had taken price-f1Xing away and
had failed to enforce the trade
agreement.
The price feature was dropped
from all service codes because the
MIRA had constant complaints and
felt it was impossible to enforce.
Today the trade executive COM
mittee of the cleaning and dyeing
industry declared fatty that labor
benefits of the code could not be
continued without price stabiliza-
ton.
Without the price regulations, the
code authority said, the trade could
not accept the codes generous re-
strictions as to minimum wages and
maximum hours of labor.
