Taken as a whole the Washing
ton picture as present is viewed by
many astute observers as an inddi-
cation that Mr.. Roosevelt is try
ing to get together with those who
would release credit if given rea-
sonable assurances as to- future
plans of the administrations 1t must
be said that Mr.. Roosevelt has not
been coaxing business leaders into
the White House. 1t can be said
with equal force, however, that he
is being kept informed fully as to
what these business leaders think.
That being true, it seems to be
proper prediction that the admin
istration is searching quietly for
ways of compromise and is hoping
at least that there can be propos-
ais in the next congress which will
have the support of a considerable
segment that is decidedly not pull
ing with the administration now
because of the brain trust pro-
posals.
NRA Faces Bitter Fight
The guiding hands of MIRA have
run into a tough adversary right
here in the National Capital in a
firm by the name of w. F. Rob-
erts company, incorporated. The
Roberts company declined to sign
the graphic arts code, the code that
applies to printing and allied in
dustries. Having refused to sign
the code the Roberts company paid
no attention to the code provisions
governing wages and hours of la
Dor, so MIRA turned the case over
to its lawyers for prosecution, and
that was the beginning of a fight
that promises to be as bitter as any
yet arising from New Deal legis-
lation.
The MIRA lawyers, armed with
affidavits of eight of Roberts
employees to the effect that they
were not receiving minimum code
wages and were working more
than the maximum hours, sought
, in an injunction in the District of
Columbia courts to prevent the
corporation from violating the
code further. Their contention was
that the code applied to the Rob-
erts company despite it's refusal
to sign because it as drafted with
the assent of a majority of the
printing industry. But the court
declined to grant the injunction,
deciding that the case should be
tried on its merits. The Roberts
company felt it had gained some
thing of a victory in the courts
ruling, but it did not stop there.
It has laid out much broader cam
paign and it is that campaign
which is proving SO embarrassing
to the NRA.

discussion of the case that he was
determined to awaken the country
to the excessive costs of code main
tenance. He objects strenuously to
some Of the code provisions and
maintains that the bulk of his pay
roll is well above tn minimum
prescribed by the code, but that his
main complaint is against the arbi-
trary action of the code authorities.
The Roberts company further
contends that the code authorities
are impractical, that they lack an
understanding of the businesses
over which they preside and that
their whole course of action tends
to put legitimate industries in a
straightjacket which, according to
Mr.. Roberts, can have only one re-
suit, namely, loss of profits and
eventual dismissal of some if not
many employees.
The reports in Washington are
to the effect that since the Rob-
erts company case reached the trial
court, something like 1900 print
shops throughout the country have
declined to pay further assess
ments to the code authority for
their industry.
Nearing Open Break
This weekly resume of Washing
ton affairs is not intended to be of
gossipy character, but there is a
report going the rounds in Wash
ington, quite unconfirme1 as yet,
that holds much significance. For
that reason I shall include it that
you may know all things are not
serene.
The story concerns a rift in the
Department. Of Agriculture and its
adopted child, the Agricultural Adj
justment administration. In no
governmental agency are there as
many brain trusters and theorists
as are to be found in the AAA.
They have come to be known as
the Tugwellians, named for Prof.
Rexford Guy Tugwell, undersec-
rotary of agriculture. Professor
Tugwell, long regarded as the OUT
standing brain truster, has been
consistent in promotion of his
theories and his SUBURBAN trusters
have followed his lead through all
the starm and strife between the
theoretical and the practical men
within the administration.
Now, according to the report,
the rift between the brain trusters
and the practical men in the AAA
and the department. as well is APP
preaching an open break. 1t has
gone so far, according to well au-
thenticated reports, that the prac-
teal groups have prepared their

Price-fixing for the trade today

of long lines by Wall Street houses
was noted. Spot houses and the

The entire Fifth district, in.

Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia,
North Carolina and South Caro-

RATE ORDERED

The State Public Utility Com
mission has ordered a 16 per
cent reduction in the electric
rates of the Tennessee Public
Service Company, a subsidiary
of National Power & Light Com
.pany, amounting to about $780,
900 annually.
This reduction has been con-
templated for some time but had
been held in allegiance by the
commission in the hope that the
city of Knoxville and the utility
company would get together on
the question concerning the
city's entrance into the sale of
electricity.
Such a development the COM
mission now believes is "hope.
less" and ordered the company
to reduce rates so consumers
would not have to wait until
the Knoxville plant is constructed
about two yearS-for lower
rates.
