HOLLYWOOD, Aug. 6 0.N.S0.
Production is proceeding briskly
and smoothly in Hollywood despite
the fact its product faces a possi-
BILE boycott.
But there is a distinct odor Of
disinfectant permeating the stu
dios. There have been several ma
jor operations on productions al
ready completed, and the disin-
fecting process is proceeding with
regard to those being readied for
the making.
And if any studio for a moment
lapses, Joseph 1. Breen, assistant

and now the one-man censor board
of Hollywood, sends the product
right back for laundering.

THE MUKLUK TRAIL

WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 10 = Recommendations for the recon struction of Nome, insofar as the Public Works Administration is con cerned, have been placed on the desk of Administrator Ickes by Col. Elmer w. Clark.
 Colonel Clark, who is an execut- i've assistant of PWA, believes $257 900 ought to be expended in con- struction of Federal building. Els inmates are that the municipality will require $150,000 in the form of loan and grant for various pro- jects.
 Delegate Dimond is actively coop erating with Colonel Clark and oth- CT PWA officials so that approval of the program may be expedited.
 It had been hoped-and still is that municipal offices could be plac- ed in the Federal building but legal complications have arisen in that connection. Some PWA attorneys are of the opinion that the Federal government cannot rent office space to others. However, efforts will be continued to iron out the situation and if at all possible quarters for the municipality will be provided.
 Not only is MT. Dimond taking an active part with respect to securing the purely Federal allotment, but he will prepare and hasten thru Congress bill authorizing Nome to issue bonds. This will be done when the Nome city government has decided on the exact needs.
 During the course of his trip to Alaska, Colonel Clark took occasion to make general study of condi- tions there. He is convinced that Territorial developments will be materially hastened by prepara- ton and adoption of road program extending over a period of years and airways aids.
 William Kirtland, former resident of Juneau and now living in New York City, is visiting in Washing ton with his mother and his sister Mrs. A. w. Longaker. They also used to live in Juneau.

'in reflection of the Federal con-
struction program. 1t Is significant,
nevertheless. that private undertak-
ings registered a year-to-year In
crease of 50 per cent. Whereas
eventual exhaustion of Federal ap-
preparations likely will curtail future
rate of expansion in public works
contracts, private activity should ex-
hibit continued growth with the ex-
tension of business recovery.
while building activities in the early
future should continue to exceed last
years levels by wide margins, later
comparisons will be less impressive
because Of the pickup during the late
Spring and Summer of 1888 1t is
probable, however, that aggregate
contract awards for the first half Of
this year will be more than double
those Of year earlier"

BUILDING SHOWN
RISING SINCE 80
Data Gathered From rs
Cities Reveal Industry Hit
Low Last Year.

A summary Of information gathered
from rs cities of the United States
reveals that the building industry
after i've years touched its low level
Of activity in 1888, and has been
climbing rapidly from the depths of
depression during the first quarter of
1884, z. M. Craig, executive secretary
Of the National Association Of Build
ing Trades Employers, announced to-
day.
The summation of Mr.. Craig. who is
a member Of the National Construc-
ton Code Authority, Is based on the
quarterly returns of Nationwide
building activities that were approx
mately two and half times greater
than for the first quarter of 1888.
The large increase of activity in the
building field is well exemplified in
the survey compiled by Robert D.
Steele, the statistician Of the national
body. Steele's figures show that the
Improvement in this vast industry
was especially pronounced throughout
the East and in most sections of the
South and Midwest.
Mr.. Craig pointed out that the low
level OF business activity was reached
in July, 1892, and since that time
stocks, bonds and numerous industries
have enjoyed some recovery. Pro-
verbally, building and real estate are
the last to stage comeback, and
their upSwing should be close at hand.
The official stated that while prac-
tically everything imaginable has been
attempted to end the depression, pub
lie opinion is practically agreed that

CODES ARE HAILED
AS j. S. SALVATION
Architects Representative
Pleads for Support to
Bring About Reforms.

While industry under N. r. A. has
an opportunity for housekeeping such
as 1t has never had before. the codes
of fair competition will go the way
of prohibition If industry fails to CO.
operate fully with the Federal Gov
ernment, william Orr Ludlow Of New
York, chairman of the Committee on
Industrial Relations of the American
Institute of Architects, declared in q
report.
There never has been a chance
like the present one to put all busi-
ness and industry on a more ethical
basis" he said. Our old system of
business and industrial economics,
which was no system at all but just
the practice of every man for him.
SELF we now know has fallen down
completely and must be superseded
by cooperation and fair play
1--WE have always had 'chiSelers' and
always will have. That Is the reason
why every man who wants to see
this country get on its feet again,
and every man who believes in fair
and decent business methods will live
up to the code of his particular buSi-
ness or industry to the letter, per-
suade others to do so and, where
necessary, make others do so.
Authority Backs Codes.
1--WE have talked ethics ever since
we can remember. We have made
codes of business ethics. but persua-
sion is sometimes just bit too weak
Now, we are backed up by authority
Of the United States, and If need be
by penalties that that Government
proposes to visit upon those who will
not play fair
Business and industry now have
chance to clean house such as they
never had before, to organize for
mutual help and for protection from
the destructive and dishonorable
practices that have cursed us from
time immemorial If we let these
codes fail through individual greed or
petty carping over details, our last
state will be worse than our first. 1t
will be many a long year before we
have another such chance
Two Courses Open.
Those in industry can do one of
two things. They can defeat the
codes by destructive criticism backed
up by 'chiseling,' or they can say:
Here is a way out; let's give it a
fair trial The Government is simply
proposing something. If this proposed
something is not lived up to, it will go
the way of prohibition
But We must have patience. No
reform has ever come about over
night. 1t is going to take a long time
to iron out all the rough spots. Give
the N. r. A and the codes a chance,
and more than that. give them a
whole-hearted support. whether we
like all the details or not.
We needed the Government to
start this thing. We need the Gov
ernment to keep it going at least for a
while Then let the Government
stand by and see if business and in
dustry cannot govern themselves
through a determination to get more
business ana better business by set
tirg up standards of decency and
honesty and honor"

Army. This incident took place in
the Blair House.
Probably the most pretentious social
event that took place in the mansion
was the marriage, May l, 1885, Of
William Tecumseh Sherman. famous
Civil War general, to Ellen Boyle
Ewing, daughter of Thomas Ewing,
Secretary of the Interior. The we'd
ding was attended by President Zach
ary Taylor and his entire cabinet, as
well as Henry Clay. Daniel Webster
and Thomas w. Benton.
Montgomery Blair, Postmaster Gen.
eral in President Lincoln's cabinet and
son of Francis P. Blair, also lived in
the house. Montgomery Blair was
counsel for the plaintiff in the fa-
nous Dred Scott case In 1857 and
represented Samuel j. Tilden before
the Electoral Commission in 1851.
AS Postmaster General he was the
first to advance the idea of the free
delivery system.
The Blair House was rented at va
rious times by Secretary of the Navy
Bancroft, who did much to have the
Naval Academy established; Secretary
of the Navy John Y Masor and Tom

REAL ESTATE LEADER
HOLDS CODE is HELPFUL
Declares New System Is More
Adaptable to Present Busi-
ness Life.

Herbert U. Nelson, executive sec
retary of the National Association
OF Real Estate Boards, views the
real estate brokerage code as a real
opportunity for advancement" He is
in Washington to assist in working
out details for enforcement of the
code, which became effective Thurs
day
Il am one of those who believe
that codes have come to stay in some
form or other" Nelson stated. What
is being set up is a new system of
law that is more adaptable to our
present-day complex way of doing
business"
He pointed out the code submitted
by the real estate brokerage industry
was accepted without change. Sc
lection of the IL members of the
national code authority is the next
step toward enforcement. The Ma
tional Association will name eight
members.
