HIGH HAT

Good evening.

Styles are so startling this autumn, Hats are as queer as can be; Take this one-is it becoming?
 Your milliner will answer, mais oui. What matter the height or the angle When fashion says they are chic, Though placing the lid on your noodle Is really bit of trick Do YOU expect to go places and do things, Keep pace with the rank and file? Then you'll have to be high hat this season If you want to be right in the style

Prices Firm in All Groups
With Turnover in Small
Volume.

By nlfed Press
NEW YORK, Nov. 9.-Automobile
equipment issues led a rally on the
Stock Exchange in the late morning
trading today. Prices firmed in
nearly all sections of the list, and
around noon we're fractions to more
than a point above the previous
close.
Briggs Manufacturing was the
most active issue on the board. 1t
reached 1875, up II and a new high
for the year. Mullins Manufacture
ing was up nearly a point at 9as,
while its preferred spurted 3ia
points to 34ia on a few ten-share
lot sales.
Fractional gains we're noted in
other motor equipment shares in
Guiding Bendix, Houdaille Hershey,
Murray Corporation, and Stewart
Warner.
Automobile issues gained fraction
ally. Building shares we're active,
with Johns Manville up more than
point. AmuSementS made small
gains Chemicals were featured by a
rise of nearly 2 points in Columbian
Carbon. Mercantile issues, oils, util-
tiles and silvers we're up fractions to
a point.
Volume was small in the early
trading when prices were mostly
lower and there was no perceptible
pickup when the market rallied.

AAA Section Recommends
rs Per Cent Slash Be-
low Base Acreage.

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, Nov 9. - Cotton
farmers participating in the acreage
adjustment plan will be allowed to
plant an additional 100000 acres
next year, it was learned today.
The AAA cotton section, it de-
veloped, has recommended to Sec
rotary of Agriculture Henry A. Wal
lace that the full Is per cent re-
duction below base" acreage per-
mitted by the 1885 contracts be
sought. Its suggestion probably will
be accepted. This years reduction
averaged 40 per cent.
Under the proposed program, CO.
operating growers would qualify for
an estimated 500, 100000 in benefit
payments by limiting total plant
ings to about 100000 acres or Is
per cent less than the annual aver
age during the five years, 1882.
Assuming that, as this year, about
100000 acres will be cultivated by
non-cooperators, the total cotton
area would approximate 100000
acres compared to 100000 in 1884.
An average yield of ITO pounds per
acre would produce crop of slight
ly more than 100000 bales.
News that the full Is per cent cut
would be sought came as the de-
partment of agriculture's crop re-
porting board issued its November
production estimate, showing the
1884 crop to be substantially less
than 100000 bales.

REVAMPED NRA
BELIEVED NEAR
TOPERMANENCY
Major Provisions, including
Section IA, Seen Con-
tinued by Congress.

By Scripps-HoWard Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-The
NRA. under its new management, is
making progress toward perma-
nency, in the opinion of some of its
highest officials. They share the
view of Donald R. Richberg, chief Of
the National Emergency Council,
that the Recovery Administration is
"on its way up" and growing
stronger every day"
Like Arthur D. Whiteside, a mem
Der of the National Industrial Re-
covery Board which succeeded Gen
eral Hugh S. Johnson, they con-
slider it inevitable that the major
PROVISIONS of MIRA, including Sec
ton IA, will be continued by con-
gress before MIRA expires June Is.
They concede an enormous amount
of dissatisfaction in industry. And
they realize that many employers
still believe NRA is on the way out.
But NRA is making substantial
gains against many of the sources Of
complaint, they say, and toward
making enforcement a possibility
rather than a theory.
Three Major Problems
The vast bulk OF NRAs difficult
ties arise from three problems:
l. The disparity of wage-an-h
provisions among related or overlap
ping codes-and the resultant clam
or of employers for inclusion in the
code with the least onerous labor
provisions.
2. Resistance to the collection of
assessments to support code author
tiles; one large firm complains that
eighty-four code authorities have
billed it for code dues.
Conflicting and confusing def
nitions of industries and functions,
which result in overlapping jurisdic-
tions between related codes.
Recovery leaders are endeavoring
to reduce such causes of noncompli-
ance by seeking to persuade neigh
Dor" industries to merge their codes
thus Wiping out conflicts over
wages and hours and replacing a
handful of code assessments with a
single levy.
Groups Aim Mergers
Groups which NRA says are now
making overtures toward amalgama-
ton include: eight woodworking
codes, five glass codes, 20 heating,
ventilation and sanitation equip
ment codes, four paper machinery
codes, seven jewelry and watch
codes, six button codes four fur
codes, seven light sewing" codes,
five clay products codes, and thirty
nine grocery manufacturing codes.
New York dispatches describe a
similar movement to consolidate
nine or more apparel manufacture
ing codes.
In some cases the amalgamation
will take the form, not of outright
code mergers, but of coordination
of wage-and- hour and assessment
provisions. Something of this sort
is hoped for as a result of a recent
meeting here Of representatives from
twenty-three related durable-goods
industries.

predicted that the south would vote
to retain the Bankhead act. A refer
eudum of the cotton belt will begin
next month. If an "unmistakable"
majority favors the act, President
Roosevelt is directed by law to pro-
claim it effective for another year.
The Bankhead plan recently has
been showered with criticism. A
strong bloc headed by Senator Eli
son D. Smith (Dem., S. c. has an
nounced its opposition. Mr.. Smith
promises to introduce an amend
ment for the acts repeal.
Another group, led by exporters,
complains that the act is losing for
eign markets which normally abb
sorb 100000 to 100000 bales OF
United States cotton. They point
to domestic exports during the first
two months of the current market
ing season which totaled only 747,-
900 bales, or AZ per cent less than
last year and % per cent less than
tn. ten-year average.
The measure is opposed from
within the AAA itself. Oscar john
ston. manager of the cotton pool,
holds it is dangerous and unwork-
able.
Mr.. Cobb said he had no fear OF
Americas losing its dominance over
world cotton trade. No other coun-
try is equipped to produce cotton as
efficiently, he declared. The critics
of the Bankhead act are complain
ing, he said, before the game is
overland that isn't justified.

The subsequent rise 20 the pre-war
level reflected conviction of French
investors that imitation was over.
Meanwhile, a more than 500 per
cent increase in the cost of living
in France indicated the loss suffered
by holders of rentes through the in
fiationary period. This was the final
effect. Recent decline in renteS re-
fleets renewed fears of initiation.
United States government bond
prices we're not affected appreciably
when the United States cut loose
from the dollar or when the dollar
was devalorized. The reason: deval-
orization put a definite limit, for
the moment. on inflationary posi-
bilities.
If we believed that the govern
ment we're soon to resort to radical
inflationary expedientS, We would
now recommend sale of high grade
bonds on the belief that an imme-
date decline in price would follow.
The decision as to whether proceeds
should be held for subsequent re-
purchase of bonds at lower prices or
whether equities should be pur-
chased would be up to the individual
investor.
