THE Guaranty Trust Company of
i New York believes that the de-
termination of business to work with
the government in a joint effort to
speed trade recovery is bearing
fruit. 1t also provides very tang
ible reason for this cooperation. In
the current issue of the Guaranty
Survey it says in that respect:
Whether the new congress will
be more or less given to experiment
tation than the preceding one re-
mains to be seen. But it appears to
be the opinion Of many business
men that the administration will op-
pose legislation of an obviously un-
sound nature, that the strong influ-
ence of the President over congress
will make him an invaluable ally Of
business in resisting such tendencies
and that any tangible progress that
can be made toward recovery within
the next few weeks as result of
concerted effort will be the strong
est possible deterrent to drastic and
unsettling legislation"

An ideal development would be a
continued increase in trade in both

we can make them here. and if the

undoubtedly would find their way

The kitchen is a model of COM

out the house. Rather they have
emphasized the combination of in
dividual pieces into harmonious
groupings, suited to the several
rooms. They have consistently
adhered to a policy of restraint,
refusing to be led into the error OF
croWding all possible furniture into
a room, making show room out
of it.
The axis of the living room is
the fireplace which, with its stone
hearth and simple mantle, invites
the use of a Beidermeier mirror
with low pieces on the mantle
shelf. To the left there is Sher-
atom sofa with satinWood inlay,
copied from a piece in the Metro
politan Museum, flanked by an at
tractive gate-leg end table. An
antique hand-painted tray on a
folding wrought-iron stand and a
mahogany magazine rack com
plete this group and bring it into
its proper relation to the fireplace.
To the right of the fireplace is
one of the most interesting pieces
in the house, a carved low chair.
Situated in the corner, it is the
relating force between the fire
place and the broad front window,
the secondary axis. Setting low
on it's hand-carved legs, it be-
speaks the massive comfort of
those more hearty days when
Blenheim Palace flouriShed. The
only deviation from the original,
taken from this historic old build
ing, is the use of rich blue velvet
for upholstery.
A fitting companion is provided
in the form of unique pie-crust

treatment of the old crows nest
form. A brown Etruscan lamp for

One of the most graceful pieces
in the house is the Eighteenth

drawers. A Duncan Phyfe chair
with white leather seat has been
provided to go with it. The lamps,

and affords opportunity for two

A bath opens directly from the
master bedroom. Finished in an
attractive shade of pastel green,
it features a new form of tile
known as Vitrolite. A structural
glass, it is used in large blocks
and gives a light and easily
cleaned surface. 1t is especially
effective when used as here in
the shower stall with a glass
door in a chromium frame. In
an effort to make the decora-
tions and furnishings as nearly
complete as possible, Jean Matou
has installed towels in the baths
and bedSpreads in all second

Blue dominates the southwest
bedroom with a poWder-blue wall
paper, and blue checked organdie
drapes in an unusual and grace
full form. The large double bed,
furnished by the Wesley Heights
Shop, is gracefully set off with
an Irish voile hand-embroidered
spread from Jean Matou. A chest
of drawers, and vanity table with
bench and mirror complete the
furniture in this room. Of course,
there is a large cedar closet.
Although the smallest of the
bedrooms, a warm peach color
scheme makes the northwest room
one of the most attractive. A
panel bed of Colonial influence
with a celanese taffeta spread and
an eighteenth century chest are
the principal pieces of furniture.
But here, as elsewhere in the
house, it is the attention to small
details that gives the room its
finished and inviting appearance.

COAL SITUATION
STILL TROUBLED
Alabama Operators Await
Return of Johnson to Set.
tie Dispute.
BY the Associated Press.


Indications at N. R. A. that Hugh
S. johnson would remain away from
his Office at least until tomorrow night
left the soft coal situation today as
troubled as 1t has been since the ad-
minstrator ordered wages up and
hours cut.
Two outstanding phases of the con-
troversy awaiting Johnson's decision
are the differential fights being waged
by the Alabama and Northern West
Virginia operators.
Argument for continuation of the
temporary injunction obtained by the
Alabama operators against enforce
ment of N. R. AS order establishing
the seven-hour day and higher wages
has been postponed until Thursday.
This gives the administration
breathing spell, although members OF
the N. R. A. legal division have stated
the injunction proceedings will not
deter the Recovery Administration
from approving the wage and hour
scale it decides upon.
Operators from the Fairmont region
Of Northern West Virginia marked
time. awaiting the outcome OF their
protests against elimination from the
new wage schedule of the 24-cent diff
ferential they had enjoyed for years
over the nearby Pittsburgh area.
Meanwhile, N. r. AS Research and
Planning Division forged ahead with
its study of briefs and testimony
taken at the public hearing last week,
boiling it down to essentials for Gen
JohnSon'S consideration and prepar-
ing recommendations for him.
Tension prevails in much OF the
industry, while all this is going on
for since the wage and hour mandate
went into effect on April l strikes
have occurred in several States, mines
have been shut down and two men
we're shot in the Alabama coal fields.
In addition. the Alabama operators
have stated they prefer civil war in
the industry" to acceptance of the
new wage scale. which boosted their
basic wage from S340 to $3.50 and
cut an hour off the working time of
their miners. They contend the new
scale means disaster to their business

a moderately firm appearance
After brisk first hour. trading ac-

taking was in evidence. Sentiment,
however, seemed to be quite optimistic
despite the gloom which continued to
surround the power and light equities.
Some of these issues even displayed
mild resistance, although their rally
ing powers were feeble.
Commodities were without any par
ticular trend. Rye got up a cent or so
a bushel at Chicago, but the other
cereals were only slightly improved.
Cotton was bit firmer and rubber
futures sagged. Bonds were quiet and
steady, with United States Govern
ment securities still pointing upward.
Sterling was off nearly a cent in terms
of the dollar. The gold currencies
were trif1e higher.
Shares of American Telephone got
back about point of their previous
losses. ]. C. Penney was up nearly as
much at a new top for the year. Gain

The advance in Loew's followed

period. A l5-cent extra by Du Pont

Some support for American Tele-

was general in the financial district
that the regular quarterly dividend
