Mr.. Roosevelt, in addressing his

took cognizance Of those elements

The President explained his rea'
sons for asking that social legls'
lation be carried over into the
next session. He said:
"The rate of speed that we
can usefully employ in this at
tack on impossible social ana
economic conditions must be de-
termined by business-like pro
cedure. It would be absurd TO
undertake too many projects AZ
once or to do a patch Of work
here and another there without
finishing the whole Of an indl-
vidual project.
OBVIOUSLY the Government
cannot undertake n alto n o i
projects in every one Of the
43S congressional districts nor
even in every one Of the AZ
states. The magnificent con-
ception of national realism and
national needs that this Con"
gress has built up has not only
set an example Of large vision
for all time, but has almost
consigned to oblivion our an
cient habit of pork barrel leg.

and must not revert"
Mr.. Roosevelt struck a highly
optimistic note in his message
which came as a sort Of a fare
well to the Congress. He told its
members that during the past
IS months much has been done
to pull the nation from a condi
ton Of cutter proStration." He
predicted that much more will be
done.

Another indication that Dillin'

when Police Sergeant M. ]. Turney
received a telephone call last night
in which the caller voiced a threat
to dynamite the Blackhawk county

The call was traced to a pay

BLANKET CODES
. FOR SMALLER
INDUSTRIES
General Johnson Offered Plan
To Cover in About 1000
Under 800 Limit
International News Service

Moving toward a reduction in
the number Of codes under the
MIRA, the recovery advisory coun-
Gil today presented a plan to Adj
ministrator Hugh s. johnson to
limit to 800 the codes of fair com.
petition for the approximately J..
900 industries in this country.
The plan contemplates q tenn
porary blanket code which would
provide q 40-hour week and $12.13
weekly minimum wage. Under the
proposal. the big industries not
now under code would be forced
into the blanket code, while the
small ones would be allowed to
choose between the temporary
blanket and the Presidents reem-
ployment agreement. =.
About 400 Approved
There are now about 400 codes
approved by the President, while
more than double that number
are in the formation process.
Many industries not yet under
codes are Of relatively minor i'm.
portance.
The contemplated code would
set up one authority for all minor
industries regardless Of their re.
lationship.
The Advisory Council is COM.
posed of members of the con.
sumers, industrial and labor ad.
visory boards. The plan has the
complete approval Of the con-.
sumers and industrial boards but
not of the entire labor member.
ship. =
Labor Is Doubtful
However, the labor advisory
board agreed to the plan when it
was determined to make it tenn.
porary until the various minor
industries could be placed under
a. series of blanket codes. Each
Of these blanket codes would
cover related and allied indus
tries.
Labor leaders have accepted
the proposal only as tentative
arrangement, explaining that the
weekly wage provision of the
blanket code was "out Of rea-
son" for many industries which
will be forced under the new
blanket code.

Going back to the subject OF
social insurance after outlining
his natural resource development
program, the President bluntly
suggested action at the next
session of Congress. He said:
"Next winter we may well
undertake the great task Of
furthering the security Of the
citizen and his family through
social insurance"
Social insurance, the housing
program, and development OF
natural resources the President
termed old ideals which seem
to have been temporarily lost,

instance, the most radical, so
to speak. of his three detectives,
the President said:
"This Is not an untried ex-
pertinent. Lessons Of expert

from industries and from many
nations of the civilized world"
STATES TO SHARE COST
The President said the insur
ance should be national in scope
but that the States should bear
their share of the involved bur
den. He said:

National Forester Also Urges
Loans to Operators of
NeWSprint Mills
BY International News Service

Government and business ex-
perts today gave impetus to the
movement to extend Federal credit
for the slash pine paper industry.
The experts told the Senate
Banking Committee that there is
o real need for forest credit"
F. A. Silcox, National Forester,
explained a proposed amendment
to the Fletcher bill creating lum-
Der credits. This amendment
would allow liberal loans from the
Reconstruction Finance Corpora
ton to operators Of pulp mills
in the pine forests Of Georgia and
elsewhere as well as other lumber
companies.
Jones Endorses Plan
Senator Fletcher CD of Flor
i'd, committee chairman, made
public a letter from Jesse H.
Jones, RFC chairman, indorsing
the project. Mr.. Jones wrote:
"There can be no objection
to granting us the authority
10 make such loans ON full
and adequate security"
The Federal Government could
save millions of dollars in relief
costs through granting of the
loans, according to Lawrence
WeStbrook, assistant adminiStra.
tor of the Federal Emergency Re
lief Administration. He said:
"There are now $4,000 heads
Of families unemployed in the
lumber industry. They stand
little chance of being reern-
ployed or getting jobs else
where. We spend SIS to $40 o
month to relieve these families"
SILCOX OFFERS AID
Mr.. Silcox said:
