Early Court Test
OF Lumber Price
Fixing Assured

JACKSON, Miss, Sept. 2S.-
(UP).-The NRA went into court
yesterday to defend it's right to
fix minimum prices for a coded
industry.
The test was made in suits
against hardwood lumber manu-
facturers who are trying to sell
their products below the cost pro-
lection price, fixed by the code of
fair competition for the lumber
and timber products industries.
Evan Ford, Mississippi NRA
code compliance director, filed
four petitions with Judge E. r.
Holmes, of tn eSouthern Missis-
sippi Federal district court.
Ford asked for injunctions to
prevent delivery of lumber by
Mississippi and Arkansas manu-
facturers to the Fisher Corpora
ton of Tennessee, under con
tracts that fix price below the
code minimum.
The suits assure an early test
of that section of NRA which au'
thorizes the fixing of minimum
prices by the administrator after
he declares that an emergency ex
lists in any industry.
The Fisher Corporation is

WASHINGTON, Sept. %. (UP)
Peace in the embattled textile in
dustry was assured last night
when leading mill owners agreed
not to discriminate against strik-
ers and to abide by the proposals
of the Winant mediation board.
Assurance that the industry
would cooperate with President
Roosevelt in promoting harmony
between the workers and employ
ers came in a statement issued by
the cotton textile code authority.
In promising to hold no resent
ment against strikers, the textile
group stated only workers who did
not "engage in lawless violence"
during the strike would be re-em-
ployed.
The code authority's position
was made known after the Presl-
dent had moved twice within "a
hours to silence a growing demand
in tense mill areas that the strike
be resumed in protest to alleged
discrimination against those who
Joined the strike.
Mr.. Roosevelt's first move was
to name the textile labor rela-
tions board which has supreme
power to settle disputes between
workers and manufacturers. On
this board he had named Walter r
Stacy, chief justice of the North
Carolina supreme court; Admiral
Henry A. Wiley, retired, Alabama,
and James Mullenbach, labor ar
bitrator, Chicago.
Yesterday, the chief executive
summoned George A. Sloan, head
Of the Cotton Textile institute, to
the White House and spent an
hour with him reviewing the gen.
eral textile situation; later, Sloan,
who is also chairman of the tex
tile code authority, issued state
ment outlining industry's position

board which, it held, sustained the
position of the Cotton Textile in

DECLARE GOLD
STANDARD IS
AGAIN NEEDED
Business Ready to Func-
ton Normally if Stabil-
ity Is Assured
ADVISORY COUNCIL
GIVES OUT VIEWS

CHICAGO, Sept. 28.-(UP)-
A return to the gold standard
must precede any real or perma-
nent recovery, the Federal advis-
DRY council said Yesterday in a
statement to the Federal Reserve
board and member banks.
The statement, agreed to at a
meeting of the council in Wash
ington, Sept. IS, was issued by
Walter Lichtenstein, secretary,
and was addressed to the Federal
Reserve board, the Federal Re-
serve banks and each member
bank of the Federal Reserve sys-
tenn.
The council expressed convic-
ton that:
l. A return to the gold stand
ard must precede recovery.
2. Currency of fluctuating
value is a deterrent to business.
8. A definitely stated program
for balancing the budget is es-
sential to restoration of business
confidence.
4. The use of government
money in competition with pri-
vate capital should cease.
5. The steadily mounting gov
eminent debt constitutes a dam
gerous threat to public credit.
6. The currency and credit
supply now existing are ample for
an expansion of business and that
demands for currency initiation
are without sound basis.
7. The history of initiation
shows it ends in utter disaster
for every class but one-the spec
ulators.
Further monetary experiment
tation holds out no promise OF
success, and the repetition"of ex-
pedients which have repeatedly
failed in this and other countries
can lead only to Disaster the
council said.
The council is composed of one
representative from each of the
Federal Reserve districts. Its
members are Federal Reserve
member banks in those districts:
The last review of conditions and
views on monetary policies was
issued Nov. 81, 1888.
"No deal or permanent recoV-
cry can be had, or can be reason
ABLY hoped for, until the country
has been placed upon a sound
financial basis, and such sound
basis necessarily implied a gold
dollar of definitely and perma-
nently fixed gold content, with
other forms of currency redeem
able at all times in gold bullion
in the amount so fixed" the coun-
ell said.
"The council believed that joint
or similar action by other impor-
tant commercial nations is highly
important and that such interna-
tional action is extremely improb-
able on any other than a gold
basis"
The council said it was con,

Jailers hunted for the spoon when

NEW YORK, Sept. 28.-(UP).
The first hint of Bruno Haupt-
|, mann's defense in the Lindbergh
case might be insanity came to-
day when defense counsel an
nounced that he would be ex-
ahmed tomorrow by a psychia-
trist.
Meantime, the largest corps Of
investigators ever assigned to
criminal case worked under joint
direction of Bronx county and
New Jersey officials to complete
evidence against Hauptmann.
Investigators concentrated on
the search for possible accom-
plices.
All indications were that close
ly co-ordinated Investigations
were momentarily delaying the
machinery of bringing Haupt-
mann to trial until they can
strengthen the case against him.
A stoop shouldered man. sup
posedly lookout at the ransom
payment scene and a woman also
supposed to have been nearby
when the ransom was paid are
still believed to be objects of
search.
Hauptmann continued restless
and nervous in his cell and was
unable to sleep last night because
of other prisoners booing him.
High spots in the Lindbergh
case Thursday included:
Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh,
disguised in cap and glasses,
scrutinized Bruno Richard Haupt-
mann for 10 minutes without the
prisoner recognizing him.
New Jersey and New York au-
thorities were reported in secret
conference with indication that
Jersey will ask quick extradition
of Hauptmann to answer a first
degree murder charge.
District Attorney Samuel j.
Foley announced that in his be-
lief Hauptmann "was not lone
wolf" in the case.
Detectives found a moccasin-
style shoe buried beneath the
Hauptmann garage and recalled
that footprints outside the Lind
1 bergh nursery were made by
such a shoe.
Hauptmann, arraigned on an
extortion indictment, pleaded not
guilty. Bail was set at 100000
over protest of his attorney.
District Attorney Foley plan
ned to ask for a "blue ribbon
jury with Jews and Germans ex-
cluded from the panel.
