Today's Horoscope

Here the nervous energy and
executive ability of yesterday
continue, but the nature is more
elastic and success will probably
be obtained by diplomacy as much
as by the force of action or ener-
gy. AS the day advances the en-
ergy becomes less, but in many
cases this does not operate 20 the
detriment of the native, since it
does not provoke so much opposi-
ton.

C. OF c. PROPOSES
CODE LIMITATIONS
Interstate and Intra State
Changes in Blue Eagle Law
Asked by Body

Washington, Dec. 28.-(P)-A pro.
posal to remove the tens of thousands
of intra-state businesses from NRA's
jurisdiction came Friday from the
chamber of commerce Of the United
States as the big debate that will de-
eide the Blue Eagles future neared.
Congressman returning for the ses-
sion starting JAN also found the
chamber, basing its stand on refer
endum of its membership, calling for
a new MIRA law which would permit
interstate industry to fix its own
rules.
They found, too, that the bitter con-
troversy over collective bargaining
and majority rule" was to the fore
again. The Washington Post said
some members of the national labor
relations board and some labor lead
ers hope to write this rule into the
new MIRA act. The rule, handed
down by the labor board, provides
that representatives chosen by q ma
jority of workers in q plant or other
unit shall represent all workers for
collective bargaining.
This principle and the views Of the
chamber conflict. The chamber
argued that lin any new legislation
it should be made unmistaxable that
collective bargaining Is bargaining
with representatives Of all groups of
employees that desire to act through
spokesman, without the right of a
minority group to deal collectively or
the direct right Of individual bargain
ing being precluded.''
Spokesman for the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, though hearty in
their approval Of the majority rule
decision, have not announced a drive
to enact it into law. They have ask
ed merely that the collective bargain
ing section, IA, be renewed as it
stands
