STEEL AND AUTOS
FACE LABOR BOARD
New Relations Body Begins
Work-Wagner Act Cow
erage in Doubt.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Whether the Nations largest indus
tries such as steel and automobiles are
covered by the Wagner labor disputes
act will be one of the first major issues
70 face the new Labor Relations Board.
Two members of the new board
Joseph w. Madden Of Pittsburgh and
Edwin S. Smith Of BoSton-started
work today after their appointment
by President Roosevelt yesterday to
administer the Wagner act.
The third, John NJ Carmody, will
take Office as soon as he returns from
the Pacific Coast, where he has been
handling case for the National Me-
diation Board. Carmody is member
of that board.
Green Withholds Approval.
Although he gave unqualified ap-
proval of the appointment Of Smith,
a member of the old Labor Relations
Board, William Green, president of
the American Federation of Labor,
withheld Endorsement of Madden and
Carmody pending investigation Of
their labor records.
Green said, however, their qualifica-
tons showed them fitted to assume
this most important post"
Leaders in the steel and automobile
industries have indicated they in
tended to challenge the constitution
atty of the Wagner act as applied to
them as soon as complaints against
them were filed.
Green recently said such complaints
would be registered as soon as the
new board got down to work.
The Wagner act seeks to guarantee
labor's freedom to join and to deal
with employers through independent
unions, but President Roosevelt said
when he signed the measure that II
was applicable "only when violation
Of the legal right of self-organization
would burden or obstruct interstate
commerce"
Records of Members.
Madden, the new chairman, has
been a law professor at a number of
universities, including Pittsburgh
West Virginia, Chicago and Ohio. He
was arbiter In a Pittsburgh street car
labor dispute at one time, and also was
an assistant attorney general in 1920
Carmody, an industrial engineer,
has been by turn IN recent years a
mediator for the old National Labor
Board, chairman of the Bituminous
Coal Labor Board and chief engineer
for the c. w. A.
Smith, former labor commissioner
in Massachusetts,, was appointed to
the Labor Relations Board more than
a year ago. In recent weeks he has
been setting up the machinery fol
the new board to start running.

"T saw you with my own eyes."
 "Id like that very much" Mo. mic said.
 And so Charlie had taken Mamie out on the veranda. And they weren't out there over an hour and a half when he kissed her.
 When he ha dtaken her home that night he had kissed her again. Three or four days later he called on her. In time, Mamie became Charlie's girl, and they saw one another every day, and they had fights, and they made up. and when Mamie wistfully talked about getting married Charlie would scratch his nose or his ear and change the subject. One time. when he was off his guard, Mamie cornered Charlie and they became engaged and set a definite date for the wedding.
 The wedding was just about two weeks off when Mamie, walking down the street, saw Charlie talk. ing to a very pretty young lady. Quickly Mamie stepped back in 8 doorway, all eyes. The young lady seemed to be arguing with Charlie and he was smiling from the corner of his mouth. Then she saw the two turn, walk down the street, and go into an ice-cream parlor together.
 T saw you" Mamie shrieked when Charlie came to visit her that. evening.
 Saw me what?" Charlie asked.
 '.I saw you with that woman! I saw you with my own eyes! You were standing on the street argr- ing with her and then you walked into an ice-cream parlor with her. You!"
 Charlie stopped and looked at Mamie. Then it all came back to him. Mamie had seen him talking to the girl who had sold him . two-year subscription to three mag- azines at bargain prices. He had made a bargain with her--he hadn't bought the subscription un- til she agreed to go into the ice- cream parlor and have a soda with him. The girl was working her way through college and she was ready to do almost anything for q sale, and so she had accepted Charities invitation.
 "Oh. that girl" Charlie said. His chest swelled. To think that even Mamie could believe that he could date a girl like that.
 "Yes, that girl! I never want to see you again. Take your ring and get out of here vo,I--vou And thought you loved me-"
 "Aw, don't take it that way, Mamie. She don't mean a thing to me. You're the only one for me-" Charlie put his arm around Mamie.
 After a while Mamie forgave Charlie because he promised neveE to be unfaithful to her again.

BY FRANK KERN LEVIN

Charlie was one of those fei- lows who smiled from the side of his face and his girls name was Mamie. Charlie was a little fel-
 low and Mamie was fully three inches taller. Charlie was thin and Mamie was stout. When Charlie walked down the street he fllrted with every girl
 he saw. Charlie wore Q straw hat \ and a checkered suit with cloth buttons. He wore a yellow shirt and a green tie with horseshoe stickpin in 1t.
 Mamie was blonde and her hair fell about her cheeks and ears in short little curls. In spite of her heavy makeup one could see that
 her complexion was pink; in spite
 of mascara one could see her eyes were those of simple, trusting person.
 She had met Charlie at a dance; he had thrilled her with his kisses out on the veranda; and ever since
 she was deeply in love and no less
 than fanatically jealous of him. If any girl had as much as looked at Charlie she would have been ready
 to scratch her eyes out. Fortunate
 ly, in spite of Charlie's obvious flirting, no girl did.
 Charlie was one of the fellows who had always taken lot of trouble with his dressing. He
 spent considerable time before his
 mirror. He would smile at him. self out of the side of his face. k,of I4t trB Cha I'll had once boasted to some friends
 between shots in a poolroom, "ya bet do. I'm a good lookin' fella. You can laugh if you wanta, but l kin see it in the eyes of the girls.
 It's OK, it's O.K.-I know what I'm doin'."
 Undoubtedly Charlie did know
 what he was doing. And Charlie. except that his hair was thinning and otherwise not changing much, advanced to the age of 36 with out apparently having had much
 success with the girls. True, he
 had been engaged three or four times, or so he said, but something always happened.
 Never for a moment did Charlie question his appeal. He explained
 the fact that he was still unmar- ried by explaining that gir.s were pretty dumb lot, just out for what they could get.
 Charlie had bought a ticket from somebody and had gone to the dance. He was standing in the corner affecting boredom and smoking a cigarette when he saw Mamie. She also was standing in corner by herself. But there was no look of boredom, affected or otherwise, her face. In- stead there was one of hopeful an- ticipation.
 Charlie watched her fer several minutes. She wasn't very pretty, but she was young, not more than 22 or 23. She was. rather stout. but she smiled once and she did
 have nice teeth.
 Charlie swaggered and sauntered over to Mamie.
 Pretty nice dance they got here, ain't it?" said Charlie.
 "Yes," said Mamie brightening,
 "nice dance they got here" How would you like to have a

SEC Puts Curb
On Oil Royalty
RGcketeerS
International News service

Oil royalty racketeers we're put
on the spot" today by Joseph P.
Kennedy, chairman of the Securi-
ties and Exchange Commission.
Recognizing there is a large
legitimate business in oil royalties,
Mr.. Kennedy explained this ele.
ment as we'll as the public de-
mands protection from a racket
that has taken tremendous sum
from unSuSpecting investors in the
last few years.
He expressed the belief that the
trade in oil royalties is the out
standing stock swindle of the day,
and added:
81 don't want to say that all
the oil royalty business is a
racket. The legitimate dealers
want protection. We have taken
steps that should correct Seri-
Gus condition"
Within a short time the SEC
will promulgate regulations for the
registration of all royalty dealers
who are operating in interstate
commerce. Owing to the nature
of the business Chairman Kennedy
believes this will include virtually
all such dealers.
Sellers of oil royalties will be
required to furnish statements
showing the condition of the com
panies represented. These state
ments will be filed with the com
mission and will be available tC
the purchasers of royalties. Mr.
Kennedy said
"The SEC has promulgated
new regulations covering the
sale of oil and gas interests.
In substance, these regulations
provide that if offerings not
exceeding 100000 are to obtain
exemption from registration
under the securities act, all
material facts must be formally
filed with the commission and
given to prospective investors"
