CODE COMPLAINTS
SAID ON INCREASE
Romney Regards Trend as
Encouraging For
NRA Plan

The number of labor complaints
received by the Montana office of
the National Recovery administra-
ton shows an encouraging" in
crease, according to Miles Rom
ney, state NRA compliance direc-
tor. Mr.. Romney regards this in
crease as encouraging" because,
he said sit demonstrates the work
ers' eagerness to demand a square
deal and their faith in the efficacy
of MIRA to get it for Them"
Mr.. Romney explains this in
crease in number of complaints by
the fact that workers are now bet
ter informed as to the benefits and
protection afforded them by NRA
codes. This is due to the recent
ruling which obliges owners to
post in their places of business the
NRA labor provisions applicable
to their employees.
Every worker is requested by
the office of the state director to
report Immediately any infractions
of code provisions of which his
employer may be guilty. In the
great majority of cases, these
violations occur because the en-
ployer is not correctly informed
as to the provisions of his code.
For example, many proprietors are
unaware of the fact that they are
required to post the labor p%rovis-
ions of their codes.
1t has been found hat many
labor complaints are readily adj
justed when both workers and OPP
orators thoroughly understand
code provisions. In order to pro-
tect both the employee who regis
tiers the complaint and the en-
ployer against whom it is made, it
has always been the rigid policy of
the NRA to keep confidential the
names of both parties, whenever
the complaint is settled Sin the
first instance'-that is, without
recourse to any but local author
tiles.
Employers dismissing workers
who have entered complaints of
code violations against them may
expect trouble at the hands of
General Hugh S. Johnson's recov-
cry agents. The terms of an ex-
ecutive order signed by President
Roosevelt on May Is provides that
any employer who discharges a
worker for giving such informa-
ton is subject to sever fine and
Imprisonment. When it is proved
that the employee was dismissed
for reporting code violations to
his state NRA compliance director
or other official, it is the intention
of the recovey administration to
prosecute the offending employer.
The Montana office of the Ma
tional Recovery administration is
located in the Power block, Helena.

COOKE OLDTIMER WAKES ENTHUSIASTIC
IN GIVING INSIGHT INTO CAMPS BOOM,

Red Lodge had a highly-en-
Unused caller this week in Frank
Byrne, one of its former residents
but now rated as one of the pio-
neers of Cooke City and the New
World district. Mr.. Byrne's visit
lasted throughout the past week,
during which time he renewed ac-
q%uaintances with many oldtime
friends in this city.
However, where the theme of
this story comes in is the insight
Mr.. Byrne gave of the present af-
fairs of the Beartooth mining
hamlet. Oldtimers of the region,
he declared, are amazed at the
hustle and hustle, the comings and
goings that are making the old
town throb with new life.
"We've been isolated from the
outside world so long," he ex-
planned, "that we're just not used
to it,"

two score years or so. This was
plainly indicated by Mr.. Byrne.

thusiasm himself.

means to u.s." he said, "but just

He was engaged in the mercantile
business in Red Lodge about 81
years ago, and made his first triI

there since.

INDIANS UPSET
AS BY RALLY

That was a funny one the AS
dropped in their own backyard.
They had amassed 18 hits and
a 11-3 lead going into the ninth
against the Indians when they
blew like a punctured balloon
and the Indians scored nine
times and won out, 12-11.
Schoolboy Rowe, sensational
young right-hander of the De-
troit Tigers, won his fifteenth
in a row yesterday at the expense
of the Red Sox and needs but
one more to tie the American
League record held jointly by
Lefty Grove, Walter johnson and
Smoky Joe Wood.
With Owen and Greenberg
socking homers, the schoolboy
rode home on the chinstrap, 8
to 4, while the Yanks were blow
ing one to the Browns, 8 to 6. Lou
Gehrig, who hasn't been hitting
his weights for weeks, finally got
out of his slump with his thirty
eighth and thirty-ninth homers
to top both leagues, but those
homers were merely loves labor
lost.
Reds Win
Fat Freddy Fitzsimmons tried
valiantly to repeat his recent two
hit Shutout against the Reds but
this time the Reds took him in
one big inning-the fifth-in
which they combined four of their
six hits for all their runs and won,
4 to 3. Derringer was hit fairly
hard but managed to make the
Giants waste most of their
punches.
However, the Giants lost no
ground as the Phillies took over
the Cubs, 6 to /, on a four-run
uprising against Warneke in the
eighth. Fidgety Phil Collins, of
the suffering delivery, held the
Cubs to six hits.
Dodgers Win
The Dodgers, with Mungo and
zachary tolllng, kicked in with Is
hits to wallop the Pirates, 9 to 5.
So complete is the mastery of the
Dodgers over the Pirates that the
daffy Brooklynites think it's all
a mistake when the Pirates win
one.
The st. Louis Cardinals, thanks
to some fine pitching by Tex
Carleton, won the fourth and odd
game of a series with the Boston
Braves. The score was 60. The

the settlement of his much pub
licized differences with the Cardi-
mails.
