I'm ALL fairness to Remus, 1t must

the Jack Portney style, which ruined
a previous local hght show earlier in

last night to own the title he now

himself effectively tied up rs per cent

of the New York National Guard
championship, which. with a nickel,
will purchase a cup Of java in most

Lobianco had nothing on the ball
and dropped every round by varying
margins with the exception Of the
third, which appeared even due to
almost defiance on the parts OF both

INDUSTRIAL LABOR
UNIONS SPURRED
N. R. A. Plans Is Contrasted
to Organization OF Work.
ers by Trades.
BY ]. r. BRACKETT.

ASSOCIATED Press Business Writero
One Of the most important by
products Of N. r. AS order to code
authorities to set up their own labor
boards may be stimulation Of union
organizations on basis of industry
by industry as contrasted to organiza-
ton by trade.
This is the private opinion of one
OF N. r. AS most important labor
officials, and is confirmed by several
business leaders.
In the past the United Mine Work.
ers Of America has been an outstand-
ing example Of a union embracing the
workers Of an entire industry-or as
much OF 1t as was unionized-while
the electrical workers and various
building trades groups have been
strong trade unions.
Binding together workers of similar
skill was the basis for the form of
the trade union. Now advocates of
the union by industry say skill has
become less important with the de-
velopment of machines. They also
point to the many jurisdictional dis
putes OF the trade unions as a weak
ness Of their set-up. There was a
costly strike here not long ago when
two Unions took to arguing over which
was to place the metal guards over
radiators.
Industrial unionization is stimulated
by the new presidential order because
1t creates central meeting place in
an industry, regardless of craft. for
settlement Of disputes, and tends to
render less necessary special protec-
ton for individual groups. From the
union standpoint, the industrial form
seems likely to create much larger
and stronger groups, since strength is
not divided by specialities, but by a
broader mutual interest.
Another aspect of the order is that
1t indicates N. r. AS desire to give
code authorities as much power as
possible. Dominant N. R. A. officials
agree that code success depends on
authorities doing most of the work.

ACTION AWAITED
0NL|BERTY BONDS
Wall Street Circles Inclined
to Look for New US.
Issue.
BY CLAUDE A. JAEGER,
Associated Press Financial Editor.

NEW YORK. April 2.-Wall Street
is awaiting with keen interest this
week the Treasury's action on the
ss75, 100000 in Fourth Liberty Bonds
called for payment on the 18th.
In view of the huge excess reserves
of the banks, and generally favorable
conditions in the money market, in
vestment quarters are inclined to look
for new bond issue.
These s975. 100000 in Liberties rep
resent the bonds held by investors who
declined the offer of the Treasury to
convert them into new 10-year Treas
ury bonds, paying "A per cent the
first year and 81 thereafter, which
were offered in exchange for the
called Liberties last Autumn.
In view OF the huge cash balances
Of the Treasury, swelled by the profit
from devaluation of the gold dollar,
1t is pointed out that Secretary Nor
genthau could pay off the Liberties
falling due on the 18th with cash.
Market Is Favorable.
But considering the relatively favor
able money market conditions, and the
fact that the Treasury has much
issue to pay off the Liberties, and
perhaps raise some additional cash,
would not be surprising.
1t is regarded as probable that in
vestorS will not be able to get anything
so favorable in exchange for their
Fourth Liberties as the 10-year 44a
34 per cent bonds offered last Au-
tumn.
With some Treasury bonds recently
selling at prices to yield less than 3
per cent, bond dealers say a new issue
with a 3l4 coupon would undoubtedly
prove highly attractive and that a
little lower rate would seem to be
possible.
When the conversion offer for the
called liberties was made last October
Wall Street bond circles were in
clined to expect that substantially all
OF the called liberties would be con-
verified, but shortly thereafter the plan
Of manipulating the gold value of the
dollar was announced and holders of
gllt-edged investment bonds became
nervous. United States Government
issues declined rather sharply for a
few days.
Confidence Restored.
After the dollar was devalued to
5s.06 per cent of its old parity, and
the policy of making frequent changes
in the gold price abandoned, invest
ment confidence was quickly restored
and bond prices generally had brisk
advance.
Passage last week of the independ-
ent Offices bill. over the Presidents
veto, has brought a little fresh talk
in Wall Street of inflationary moves,
but the concensus has been that this
action was of more political than
monetary significance, since many
hard money" members of Congress
voted to override the Presidents veto.
Provided nothing happens to upset
present calculations, bond quarters
believe that with short-term money
rates around record lows. the Spring
and Summer should see the most ia
vorable conditions for Treasury
financing approxlmating those of the
Summer of 1881. when a 3 per cent
long-term issue was sold, the lowest
coupon in years.
