The situation shows again that the
recent stock market strength was not
based on statistics but upon confidence.
Machine Tool Statistics.
Optimists have been enjoying them
selves by pointing to the improvement
in the machine tool industry. They
say this shows that business itself has
become buyer, is ready to expand.
Without trying to throu any cold
Dater, most economists place little
faith in machine tool statistics.
This industry is highly sensitive,
up one month, doUn the merit.
During the depression it actually
got doUn to 10 per cent production
for three months FEBRUARY, March
and April, 1892.
Few believe its recent squirt up to
65.5 per cent represents any durable
change in conditions.
Ethiopian Outlook.
The Emperor of Ethiopia asserts he
is direct descendant of King Solomon
and the Queen of Sheba. He needs
to be as smart as both of them to get
around Mussolini. Our diplomatic
wise men are convinced the seizure
of his kingdom by Italy cannot be
avoided. The only question is whether
he will resist.
The British are supposed to be
phenagling inside to get him to accept
an Italian protectorship. The odds
are that he will fight.
incidentally, it appears that all the
Righteousness being exhibited now in
London is belated. The secret London
agreement of 1915 still exists. It
promised Ethiopia to Italy in exchange
for italian support in the World War.
Adroit Mussolini.
Mussolini is adroit at making his
actions speak. The very day that
Capt. Anthony Eden arrived in Rome
to soothe II Duce's Ethiopian fever.

N.R.A. SUBSTITUTE
Proposal to License Indus.
try on Code Principles
Goes to President.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The American Federation Of Labor
today proposed to President Roosevelt
a Federal licensing of industry to
maintain principles Of the former N.
r. A.
The President reserved any decision
whether TO seek new and permanent
N. r. A. legislation at this session.
Under the A. F. of L. plan, the Gov
eminent through licensing power
would require businesses in Interstate
Commerce to abolish child labor, main
tain minimum wages and maximum
hours of work and respect fair trade
practices"
The substitute for the dead N. r. A.
code structure was presented by Will
liam Green, president Of the Fedora
tion, and George Berry, assistant ad-
ministrator of N. r. A.
We expressed the belief" said
Green later, that the needs of the
country require new N. r. A. legisla-
ton at this session if in the range of
possibility"
The labor leaders said Mr.. Roosevelt
took the proposal under advisement
together with several other suggestions
before him.

A newspaper took the kids and dogs

In two nights 200 were vaccinated.

HOLDING COMPANY
FOES GAIN GROUND
Administration Is Winning
Votes in Fight to Restore

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Confidence was expressed in high
administration circles today that
President Roosevelt would win in his
effort to have Congress enact legis-
lation to abolish unnecessary" public
utility holding companies by 1912.
This view was given of1lclally as
the House neared a showdown on re-

but struck out by the House Inter-
state Commerce Committee.
House administration leaders said
they were gaining ground.

from different se1>11ns of the coun-

all except necessary" holding COM
panies by 1912.
Rankin Sees Foes Dwindling.
Representative Rankin, Democrat,
Of Mississippi, one of the leaders in
the fight, said today that the major

Of a recent private poll-probably had
been whitfield to 20 members through
the "cloak-room" drive and that it
would shrink more than that"
THE opening debate lined up more
strength for U.s." he said THE at

hurt us any, either. OF course the
Republicans are making political

Rankin's reference to attacks on

aimed, in part at least, at remarks
made yesterday by Representative
Cooper, Republican, of Ohio. mem

wv posed to be blasted with
price cuts and strewn with
unemployment and wage cuts. II you
survey the effects in the Governments S
own regular business figures you will
find very little evidence that there has
been an explosion.
The price average of non-farm- food
products for the week before the Su-
preme Court decision MAY 25) was
778. The average for the last available
week (June l5) was 77.9, virtually un-
changed.
Both employment and pay rolls have
decreased possibly per cent, but this
seems to be due at least partly to sea-
sonal slack Industrial production is
unchanged; freight loadings and de-
partment stores sales have shown alb
normal seasonal improvement.
Some Price Cutting.
The price figures, however, are not
conclusive. They are collected by the
Bureau of Labor Statistics from list
prices. 1t is quite likely that some
private price cutting has been done
behind these list prices. This is a
common business custom.
furthermore, the employment and
pay roll figures corer only tac-
tories and do not include the
service trades, hotels, restaurants,
uery small factories, where the
wage effects of the decision are
supposed to hGUe been most heartily
telt.
Nevertheless, the conclusion is juSti-
fled that nothing sufficiently impor-
tant to show up in the Government
business chart has happened since the
court edict.
Evening star., 1935-06-28


The broad picture may be surveyed
in the following monthly chart. Each
figure represents the percentage of
normality existing at the times men,
toned, as each is adjusted for sea-
sonal variations. All except prices are
based on 1923-25 as 100 per cent
Prices are based on 1926.
(See table beloU)
The price figure in the chart is that
of ell prices. 1t fell off half point
in June solely because of the de-
crease in farm and food prices while
industrial prices were remaining sta
tionary. This only means the effects
of last years drought are diminishing
in the face of excellent crop prospects
this year.
Optimism Prevails.
The prospects for business now are
centered in September. The usual
Summer slump will continue until
then, probably at slightly more than
a seasonal gait. But with the general
optimism prevailing in the business
world, advance hopes for Fall are
high.

LONDON, June 28.-Donald Bulge,
powerful young hitter from Oakland,
Calf, smashed his way to q fourth
round victory over Christian Boussus
of France, the eighth seeded player.
in the fourth round of the all-English
tennis championships today. Bulge,
qualifying for the quarter finals, won
at 6-3, 60, 3-6, 60.
Baron Gottfried Won Cramm Of
Germany. No. 2 seeded player. elm
mated Gene Mako of Los Angeles,
60, 81, 3-6, 81, to reach the
quarter-fnals.
Budge's smashing play carried him
to an easy triumph over BousSus.
The red-headed Californian, using
his backhand with devastating effect,
literally blasted the Frenchman of
the court in the first, second and
fourth sets BouSsus won the third
mainly because Bulge elected to take
a breather.
Bulge, only 10, played like a vet
eran in his debut on Wimbledon s
center court. Boussus' elimination
removed the last Frenchman from
mems singles competition.
Despite the fine impression Bulge
has made, he will be a distinct short
ender If he is forced to meet H. w.

likely, in the next round.
