JOHNSON MODIFIES
SHIPBUlLDING CODE
Changes in Line With Recon-
mendations by National
Labor Board.
By the AS ociated Press.

By the AS ociated Press.
An order modifying the code for the
shipbuildlng and repairing industry
was signed yesterday by Hugh S.
johnson, recovery administrator.
The notifications were in line with
recommendations by the National
Labor Board.
A section in the code relating to
shlpbuilding was amended to provide
that no employe on an hourly rate
should be permitted to work more
than SO hours a week. The modifica-
ton provided that if an employe
worked in excess of eight hours in any
one day, the wage paid should not be
less than IA times the regular hourly
rate, but otherwise according to the
prevailing custom in each port, for
time in excess of eight hours.
A modification of the ship repair
ing section of the code provided no
employe on an hourly rate should be
permitted to work more than So hours
a week averaged over a period Of six
months, nor more han 40 hours in
any one week. Overtime wage mini
NUNS prescribed were the same as
those for the shipbLilding industry.
Another change provided for the
amount of differences existing prior
to July l, 1893. between wage rates
paid various classes of employees re-
ceiving more than the established
minimum should not be decreased. 1t
stipulated that in no event should an
employer pay wage rate which would
yield less wage for work week of SO
hours than the employe received for
the same class of work for a 40-hour
week prior to July l, 1888.
Provision was made that the hourly
wage rates now prevailing in private
yards should not be reduced because
of the decrease in hours. Rates re-
sulting from application of Public
Works Administration Bulletin No.
81" were excepted.

following ceremonies on the floor OF
the Montreal Stock Exchange. The
market is the Canadian Commodity

Canadian Commodity Exchange
starts with a membership OF about
225, located in Liverpool, Paris, Bonn
bay, Hongkong, Shanghai, Salt Lake
City, Buffalo, Philadelphia, New York,
Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal.
Sponsors believe the widely scattered
membership, covering the majority OF
the worlds silver centers, viii give
breadth to the market and assure It
of success as a barometer of world
supply and demand for silver.

United States nationalized silver.
Price of the metal was fixed at SO 0l
cents per ounce, but since suspension

sold up to 553s cents per ounce, and
is now selling slightly below that level.
The exchange opened amid burst
of activity.
At the sound Of the opening bell.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.

NEW YORK, October 22.-Public
offering Of $50, 0,000, 900 Of Home own
ers' Loan Corp. 3 per cent bonds due
1852, is being made today by a Ma
tion-wide banking group headed by
Field, Glore & Co. and including
Brown, Hartman g. Co., Inc; the

and Alexander Brown g. Sons.
The bonds, which are -callable
until 1914, are fully and uncondi-
tionally guaranteed as to both prin-
cipal and interest by the United
States Government. The Offering is
being made at the market. Bonds
are available in coupon form In de.
nominations of SIS, $50, 500, $1,000
and up. Registered bonds are avail
able in $1,000 and larger denomina-
tions.
The issue has been listed on the
New York Stock Exchange for sew
eral months. The bonds are exempt
both as to principal and interest
from all Federal, State and local tax
alton. except surtaxes, estate, inheri.
tance and gift taxes. Interest is pay
able May / and November l.
The bankers, in Offering the bonds
state: The main purpose of this
Offering is to create a broader mar
ket for the issue. The current differ
ential in yield between this issue and
other comparable Government obi
cations Is due, in our opinion, to the
fact that the public is not yet suffi-
ciently informed regarding this new
type of Government obligation. The
present liberal yield obtainable on
home owners loan bonds is also &C.
counted for by the fact that the bond,
already outstanding have in many
cases been given In exchange fol
mortgages held by many distressed
individuals and by closed institution,
which have been obliged to liquidatt
the bonds regardless of their intrinsic
merit. It is believed that the new
method Of distribution will help Il
correct this situation"
