LABOR OPENS FIRE
ON BARROW REPORT.
Says Board Performed Dis
Service to Nation by Its
Attack on NRA

Washington, May 24.-(P)-Pot-
shooting between friends and foes of
MIRA went merrily on Thursday as
Clarence Darrow's national review
board sought to surmount internal
djssension and wind up its work.
barrow and Hugh s. johnson, OPP
ponents In a first-class denuncia-
ton match three days ago, took q
leisurely automobile drive together
late Wednesday, but about all that
could be learned Of their converse
ton was that It dealt with historical
topics.
A furious attack from organized
labor, labelling the Darrow boards re-
port "a disservice to the nation and
Its citizens in time Of great econom-
ic STRESS" added to the boards
troubles as it tackled the preparation
Of its second report regarding small
business and the NRA codes.
william O. Thompson, a member
Of the board. accused Lowell Mason,
the boards counsel, Of tampering
with the records. There were re-
marks about Mason's one-time con-
nection with the Samuel insult in
terests. One thing led to another,
resulting In an abrogation Of speak
ing terms among several members of
the board.
The Darrow-Johnson ride was in
the MIRA chiefs limousine.
It was not believed barrow had
sought out the visit with johnson
to discuss either Civil War generals
or their forerunners, but apparently
he received no encouragement on con-
versation closer home.
Senator Nye Rep. N. d., q sup
porter Of Darrow, fired another shaft
at the MIRA. After demanding that
congress stay In session until exist
Ing ABUSES" are corrected, he as
serted he intended to take the senate
floor daily on this subject.

CARELESS Of settlement Of differences
between employees and employers. was
issued Thursday by Chief Of Police
Michael Johannes.
A blanket Of quiet shrouded strik-
crs' activities while the national
guard. modified Wednesday by Gov.
Floyd b. Olson's order to prevent
fresh disorders and riots, feared be-
cause Of new lawless element in the
city. we're alert for signs Of trouble.
They remained off the streets, how
ever.
No extension Of the 24-hour truce
expiring at 8 p. m. Thursday will be
permitted even II the regional labor
board fails in its efforts to satisfy de-
mands Of the strikers, Chief Johannes
said.
II trouble arises. the guard will be
summoned Immediately. he added.
Outsider Causing Troable
Officials said the National Guards
men were ordered modified primarily
as q precautionary measure because
Of the appearance In Minneapolis Of
large numbers Of outside agitators
suspected Of trying to capitalize on
the disagreement between the strtk-
ers and employers.
Meanwhile, the regional labor adj
visory board. empowered to dominate
the arbitration proceedings, sought
definitely to end the strife by gaining
written approval Of both the en-
ployers and the strikers.
The boards first ruling was re-
jected late Wednesday by the strikers
after the employers had approved it
because, strike leaders asserted, the
ruling did not provide for direct con-
tracts between employers and en-
ployes. Under the boards proposal,
a third neutral party would carry the
deciding vote on . permanent settle
ment.
Another highlight OF the develop
ments was the pending appeal by
counsel for Congressman Francis H.
Shoemaker from municipal court
ruling sentencing Shoemaker to pay
Q fine Of $50, or serve 10 days in the
city workhouse on . disorderly con.
duct charge In connection with Mon
days rioting.
Execution Of sentence was stayed
until July 3.

Producers to Get Former Price
as Result Of Meeting
Wednesday Night
Il ARE At CONFERENCE
All Sign New Pact Designed to
End Bitter Competition
Of Last Month

Bismarck's milk war, which reduced
the retail price to cents quart and
curtailed the producers revenue from
SITS to $3.50 per hundred pounds Of
raw milk, was settled Wednesday
night at q meeting held at County
Agent H. o. Putnam's office.
Twelve Of the leading distributors
and representative farm producers
were present. All signed an agree
ment which will see the former retail
price Of 10 cents per quart restored
Sunday.
Producers will be given the former
price Of SITS per hundred pounds be-
ginning Saturday.
Putnam presided at the meeting
In an attempt to get the principal
distributors and dairymen who have
been selling direct to the consumer to
settle their differences once and for
all, he emphasized the critical condi-
ton existing In the livestock industry.
There are no pastures. no hay, no
feed Of any kind to be purchased in
any considerable quantities." he said.
Feed, such as it is, Is high In price.
II the producer cannot get q fair
price for milk, he cannot stay in BUSH
ness. The result can only be short
age"
Much Talk Preceded Pact
Representatives Of the antogonistic
factions engaged at some length in q
debate as to where the responsibility
rests for the price cutting. The be-,
ginning Of the conflict between dis
tributors and dairymen dates back to
last winter. It came to q head May
when the retail price was reduced to
8 cents quart to be followed on May
"A or Whereabouts by q reduction to
z cents.
As soon as possible, Putnam said,
a code will be formulated for both dis
tributors and producers to sign. No
MIRA code exists for the milk industry
but the agreement will be made un-
der the agricultural adjustment ad-
1ninistration.
