IN TWO HOSPITALS IN COUNTY
AFTER SUNDAY COLLISION

sibIe Skull Fracture SUI
fered In Curve Crash

Five persons we're in two Hen
derson county hospitals today, two
of them, at least, seriously in
iured as a result of an automo-
bile collision on the Asheville
highway, about seven miles from
Hendersonville, Sunday afternoon
about 5 o'clock.

brought to the Patton Memorial
hospital following the collision.
while R. S. Benefited and Arson

gin, of Asheville, was treated at
the Mountain Sanitarium and dis

NRA CODE FOR MAIL ORDER
UNIVERSITIES PROMULGATED
AS PROTECTION FOR SUCKERS
BY HARRY FERGUSON
United Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON. June II, (UP

WASHINGTON, June II. (UP)
Bright and early this morning
General Hugh S. Johnson tucked
all Of us under the wing of his
blue eagle to save us from the
fellows who are always trying to
make Cameras, Shakespeares and
Rockefellers out of us by mail.
Taking the position that the
American people are natural born
suckers who think they can
breathe deeply, read book, ex-
ercise ten minutes before break
fast and then whale the tar out
of Max Baer, the General has
drawn up a code for mail order
universities
Johnson doesn't mean to leave
the impression that it is impossi-
BILE to soak up culture by tearing
open an envelope and memoriz-
ing a pretty speech like "Quick,
Mrs. Van Schuylkill, the Cleaning
Fluid,' when you spill strawberry
jam on your hostess best linen
tablecloth. The code comedies
that you can acquire lot Of
savoir faire and even. become a
bon vivant (they laughed when |
spoke to the waiter in French> IN
ten easy lessons.
The NRA takes the position
that the mail order universities
have been pouring it on a bit
thick lately and bullying the citi-
zens into thinking that unless
they learn to play the piano right
away, they might as well give up
and get comfortable under ceule-
terry sod.
Mostly the NRA is mad at the
bullying biceps boys. They are the
fellows who want you to get up
10 minutes early every morning
and bend from the waist 30 times
so you can turn into a Hercules
or Venus, depending on wheth-
er you are a he or a she.
Schools which 9ger courses In
physical culture, SCREAMS the
blue eagle, "must be careful in
the publication of pictures of the
beautifully developed man or wo-
man as evidence of what may be
expected by the enrolling student.
They must be genuine and not
unwarrantedly leave the impress
sion that the subject attained the
portrayed magnificent proportions
as a result of taking the adver-
tised course"
Last year we Americans laid
S15,794,000 on the line to buy
balm and salve for our inferior
ity completes. Not all of it was
spent to find out what fork to use
when the waiter brings the filet
of sole. A lot of people learned
how to balance ledgers, install
bathtubs and write short stories.
BY the way, whatever became
of Addison Sims of Seattle?

WASHINGTON, June II (UP}
-NRA realized today that it is
being put on trial before the
public again and will have to
make a new defense of its &C
tons and policies in reply to the
second barrow report.
Disclosure that the second re-
port contains sensational addi-
tional charges including COM
plant that the retail store code
was changed after its accept
ance by the trade, indicated the
board intends to keep NRA UNI
der a steady fire of criticism
until it closes shop late this
month.
The vehement denunciation of
the first report by Administrator
Hugh S. Johnson and other NRA
officials, and Johnson's peace
pipe" conferences with Clarence
barrow, have not caused the
board to pull it's punches in the
slightest.
President Roosevelt stu d e d
the second blistering new report
on the cooling atmosphere of the
lower Potomac while on a week
end cruise. The White House
has not yet decided when it will
be made public. 1t is expected
to be accompanied by q formal
NRA reply. as was the first re-
port.
The United Press learned that
in surveying the retail code. the
report asserts:
evidence shows that the re-
tail code signed by the president
was not the one accepted by the
industry"
The report says NRA changed
the code between the time the
Industry agreed to it and it was
taken to the White House. Just
what parts are alleged to have
been changed could not be learn
ed, however.
NRA officials withheld reply
pending official publication of
the report. 1t was pointed out
however. that the recovery act
gives the president land NRA
indirectly through him) power
to change codes and impose con-
ditions if such changes are DEEM
ed necessary to the public inter-
est.
Of the 10 codes covered in the
second report. only that for the
oil industry escapes criticism.
Secretary of Interior Harold l..
Ickes. who administrators that
code, is praised for his work.
The report, it was learned,
charges that the cement code is
expressing small competitors in
that industry. 1t asserts that
provisions of the cement and
lumber campacts foster collision
in prices and compel consumers
to pay phantom freight rates."
