Yale Attacked For
 "Futile Dog Torture"
Ahti-viyisectiOn Chief Clarence E. Richard Calls
 Recent Experiments Disgrace to University

"The vivisectors failed to pro- duce. black tongue, which they said had many features in common with pellagra in man, and which they wanted to induce. to deter mine. experimentally if it attacked the dogs nervous system in addi- ton.
 "One by one the dogs ended their days in squalor and agony after months of diarrhea and vomiting and the necessity of muzzling the subjects to- prevent their indulgence of a degenerative hunger the un- natural diet had induced.
 What did this torture prove :? Granting all they claim, only this, that an unnatural diet deprived of certain health giving and stabiliz- ing vitamins, will have some minor effects on a dogs nervous system. What were the results? Chiefly the announcement that more dogs are doomed by other equally serseless experiments to prove again and again what is already well known.
 Continuation of such experi- ments adding, nothing but more useless statistics to the already purpoSeless mass accumulated by dog vivisectors puts Yale university in the class of those perpetuating practices worthy only of the cruel- ties of the Middle Ages. Such ex- periments are a disgrace to any institution which boasts of, culture.
 "Done in the name of science. cruelties to dogs have yet to fndiS cate any solid contribution to the well being or happiness of man, or any important increase in knowl- edge of the human body, at least, should we admit some of the vivisectors' claims--commensu with the pain inflicted on the dumb animals who are mans most faith full friends, or the degraduation, possibly sub-conscious, of the ex- perimenters and those who follow their experiments"

One Of the first developme1ts in the
revised N. r. A.lwas the frowning
upon price and production controls.
But Donald Richberg. head Of the
new Policy Committee, has taken
pains to put executives minds to rest
over that.
At drst glance, some business lead
ers thought It meant giving up al the
gains to management, for which In
the creation Of N. r. A. the. conces.
Sions to labor were made. But It ap-
pears that the major part Of the CO.
operation between business manage.
ments Is to continue.
Actual price liking" has been ap-
piled chiefly In codes affecting nat
ural resources, such q timber, copper
and petroleum. Z.
The more common price provision
In N. r. A. codes merely provides for
open" prices, not fixed prices. And
It Is expected that the open-price pro-
vision. possibly with minor modinca-
tions, win be retained.
Regulation through the "open" price
method merely requires each company
to list with an impartial agency all its
prices, discounts and conditions Of
sale. The company must agree to
abide by the prices and terms it has
listed. But 1t may ut any time list
changes. In most codes % hours' mo-
tice is required.
This brings the price Information

tend TO make uniform and virtually

company Is prevented from making
