Rosenblatt pointed to the possibility
of setting up fair practice agreements
in local areas. He said that under
recent announcement by N. r. A. such
agreements could be set up. on the ap-
proval of N. r. A, in areas where S5
per cent of the establishments agreed.
A dozen applications for approval of
such regional agreements are now
pending, he said.
The incident brought to the fore
again the controversial problem Of
codes for service trades.
The letter from the Cleaners and
Dyers' Authority said fully 81 per cent
of the IL 900 plant owners and the
It's, 900 to 100000 retail outlets In the
trade "are anxious, ready, willing and

The communication to the President

N. r. A. now has received resigna-
tions from three service code authort-
ties and officials look for five more

suspending fair practice sections Of
service industry codes.
In addition to the cleaners and
dyers' authority, those for the laundry
and the motor vehicle storage and
parking trade codes have resigned.
The other service industries whose
designations are expected include the
barber shop trade, the bowling and
billiard trade, the shoe rebuilding
trade, the advertising distributing
trade and the advertising display in

N. R. A. officials said the executive

EARLY STORY REVISED.
Maid Tells of Disorder in Apartment
of Poderjay,

NEW YORK, June 81 Op).-A topsy-
turvy scene, with papers strewn over
the floor, met the gaze of a colored
maid who entered the apartment of
Capt. Ivan Poderjay on December %
last.
This disclosure, from a reliable
source, was contrary to earlier, less
reliable reports, and it added new
facets to the already multi-faced myS-
terry of the missing Agnes Tufverson.
Pressed Second Suit.
Still another new disclosure, from
the same reliable source, was to the
effect the dashing, now suspected Po-
derjay made love to widowed concert
violinist simultaneously with the
courting of Miss Tufverson, the sue
cessful woman lawyer. The police
learned the concert violinist repulsed
him.
The maid, detectives said, was Flora
Miller. She left the Poderjay apart
ment at II O'Clock on December 90,
then seeing Miss Tufverson for the
last time. She was ordered by Poder-
jay to return on the 22d.
When she came back, she told the
police, the apartment was awry. Po-
derjay was poring over correspondence
and papers. Other papers were strewn
over the floor.
Trunks Found Packed.
The four trunks-around which the
interest of the mystery centers-were
packed and ready to be sent to the
steamer.
The maid cleaned the apartment
and destroyed the papers in an incin-
orator.
Poderjay. who is reported to have
stayed alone in his cabin with one of
his trunks throughout the voyage to
England, now is held in Vienna as a
bigamist suspect.
On the theory that Miss Tufverson
may have been murdered and secretly
inferred police today we're directing
inquiry into all recent burials of any
unusual circumstance.

The danger for all of us graduates,
especially, I believe of the larger
Eastern Universities, lies in narrow
ness of point of view-the living
within the confines Of ones own COM
munity, of living within ones own
profession and of typifying too
greatly the man who is described by
the West as the man who never went
west of the Hudson River. To get to
know our country is going to help US,
not only individually but our own
Government.

Canadian markets dragged

Some investment buying appeared in
the gold producing mines that lifted
prices early in the week. but even
these failed to make much headway,
with the trend in the Junior mining

Silver issues fluctuated with the

OUTLOOK BETTER
FOR SUGAR FIRMS
Passage of Jones-Costigan
Bill Raises Hopes for
Sterilization.
BY CHAS. p. SHAEFFER,
Associated Press Financial Writer.

For the first time in many months,
some observers say, there Is an easier
feeling in the sugar industry of the
United States.
A number of sugar representatives
in Washington see a hope of stabili-
zation as a result of the passage Of
the es-Costigan bill to include
sugar beet and sugar cane as basic
agricultural commodities under the
agricultural adjustment act.
The measure, recommended by the
President, did not meet fully the de-
mands Of any particular group, but
spokesmen for the industry declare it
to be compromise resulting from a
spirit of give and take on the part of
a large majority of those most con-
cerned.
After studying that law, as now writ
ten, beet and cane growers and re-
f1ners say that with a just and INTEL
ligent administration Of its provisions
the industry will develop along proper
lines. The growers have q prospect of
eSseAA6 6SteCA Ri4OCo AoA tAiClI II
is said, and the ref1ners will be able to
keep their plants going and their
workers employed at satisfactory
wages.
The compromise nature of the bill
was emphasized by Department of
Agriculture official, who watched the
progress of the sugar controversy for
months and who helped to frame the
Jones Costigan legislation. He said:
This new sugar act is disliked. by
everybody; therefore, it must be a
pretty good compromise. Nobody die
tated it, but everybody had hand in
shaping its vital provisions"
For approximately 200 years there
has been a sugar industry in the
United States. It has grown from an
insignificant stage in Louisiana to a
business involving the expenditure of
hundreds of millions of dollars in labor,
supplies and materials, in half the
States Of the Union.

NEW YORK, May 26.-Cables and
radio dispatches to Business Week
give the following survey of business
abroad for the week ending today:
LONDON-"Business has been slowed
down this week by the Whitsuntide
holiday, but there are still signs that
recent brisk activity will continue
through the Summer, both in trade
and on the stock markets
"The Stock Exchange listened with
a good deal Of interest to the report
this week that South Africa will un-
dertake a 10000, 900 development Of
new gold resources as soon as the
new gold law is passed which grants
special concessions to small mines,
new mines. and reopened mines.
There is some fear in the London
money market that the foreign ex-
changes will be badly affected by the
crop positions this year. The ex-
changes Of the agricultural countries
afflicted by drought are bound to
show some effect. The dollar will be
hit, but it is expected that Washing
ton will prefer to lose gold rather
than permit the dollar to leave its
present level A possible effect may
be the devaluation Of certain Euro
pean currencies, in Yugoslavia and
Rumania particularly.
AT a time when employers gen.
orally are combating the demand of
labor for a 40-hour week, the Rolls
Razor Co. is adopting the five-day
week (421a hours instead of 47) with
out change of pay. This follows the
Summer experiment inaugurated by
Boots (CaSh Chemists) who have
done the same. The Rolls Razor Co.
is officially of the opinion that short
week adds appreciably to worker
efficiency"

On Milk, Largest Source of Farm Income

and this coupled with q shortage Of
old hay, forced dairymen to turn cat
tie on pastures before the grass had
a chance to make its Spring growth,
Mr.. Baldwin declared.
The national status Of mich cows
is illustrated by United States De-
partment Of Agriculture figures, which
state that average price per head, as
Of January IS, 1894, was 5000. It
is necessary to 90 back beyond 1910
to find q lower average mich cow
price.
The dairying industry. locally and
nationally, seems to agree that: Amer
ican COW. population over the country
is too high; consumption Of milk and
its products during the depression
shrank severely; there are still too
many diseased" cows and to many
low-producers; the present should be
used to weed out sick and unprofit-
able cows and thus improve basic
herds; the Federal Government,
through moving high-grade cattle out
of dry areas and only destroying
diseased or low-producers, could
strengthen dairying nationally.
There seems to be q somewhat gen.
eral agreement In the dairying trade
that the national pasturage and hay
deficiency this year win range from
