3 QUIT AS BERRY
TAKES n. R.A.P0ST
CoonIey and Thorp to Enter
Business-Record Work
Defended.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
Following the disclosure that three
key N. r. A. officials have resigned
another executive Of that agency to.
day warmly defended the work now
being done, declaring it would be
almost criminal" to drop the job oi
recording and analyzing the history
OF the Blue Eagle.
The designations followed the ap-
pointment of Maj. George L. Berry tc
an apparently dominant position in
the old organization. Prentiss L
Coonley, head Of the division of busi-
ness cooperation, and Willard Thorp
economic adviser to the N. r. A. Ad.
visory Council, will re-enter private
business. probably on Monday. 1t wa,
stated q third official also Is leaving
but his name was not made public
Coonley said Berry's appointment
as "co-ordinator of industrial COOP.
Grafton" by President Roosevelt hac
nothing to do with his resignation
while associates said Thorp's leavin,
had been arranged some time ago.
Exodus in Prospect.
Several other men high in the N
r. A. set-up. however, said privately
they were considering resigning, ano
there were strong indications of q
wholesale exodus within a few weeks
The defense Of the recording ano
analyzing work now being done BY
the $500 N. r. A. employees was
made by L. J. Martin, acting admin
istrator. and L. C. Marshall, director
Of the division of review.
The latter, who is in charge OF
the historical work and the prepara-
tion Of the voluminous files for fu-
rure reference, said his objective was
to save for posterity "the most tre-
mendous mass of information on
business practices ever gathered"
About half 81 those still on the
N. r. A. rolls are writing the history
of N. r. A. and saving its records fol
future use. Another TOO are in the
field, watching the results of code
suspension; about 200 are trying te
develop the use of voluntary trade
agreements, while the balance ,rt
in the service departments or working
for other governmental agencies.

also is making o Nationwide survey

Some major officials indicated pri

MASS TO MARK 5OTH
WEDDING ANNIVERSARY
Mr.. and Mrs. John Sheridan Also

Mr.. and Mrs. John Sheridan, each

anniversary tomorrow at a special

The mass will egin at 8 am. and

New signs of life ares evident also
In the old mining towns, which
lapsed or died years ago. Higher
gold and silver prices have not
caused anything like boom. Both
metals are somewhat improbable
by-products of lead. zinc and copper,
the prices of which have not suff1-
GENTLY improved. But ghost towns
are being reinhabited. Possibly 5000
persons have been re-employed by
this activity.
The ghost hopes of persons hold
ing mining stocks (nleaning lot
OF people in Denver haze been
similarly revived. There is euen
an inside rumor that John J. Rds-
kob and his ldUyer, Senator Pitt
man, are coming in to finance the
reopenino of abandoned properties.
just as they did Dith the Comstock
lode in Neuada.
The point is that. with these lead.
ing industries (and even the beet
sugar industry getting along fairly
well. no dent has been made in the
seasonal loafing problem. None will
be, even If there Is q tremendous
boom.
Shouldering Work Burden.
Working citizens are shouldering
courageously the burden of providing
work for employables. After voting
down a works bond issue several
months ago, they recently changed
their minds. Under good leadership
the city approved a few weeks age
an issue of $2,7o0,000 for water i'm
provements and 100000 more for
sewage disposal system.
This will furnish work for the
10000 employables in Denver, but II
hardly touches the broader problem
which has a larger or smaller counter
part in almost every State.
1t is not uncommon for Denverite
buying a pack of cigarettes to toss a
State sales tax token on the counter
and say: There's a token to that
so-and-so Governor"
Nor is it unusual for a person who
can get his hands on the cigarettes
first to walk out of the store and
refuse to pay the tax. If any store
keeper is audacious enough to insist,
he usually receives from this class OF
customer a merry invitation to &c
roll an oat.
This is not peculiar to Denuer.
You find the same thing in I'LL
nois. There, aluminium coins,
representing mills, are commonly
knoDn as "Horner money" in honor
of the Gopernor. Also in Missouri,
where pasteboard milk bottle tops,
Without rims, haze been printed
BY the State to represent tenths OF
a cent.
Law stupidly Applied.
These personal Boston tea parties
may not be important fiscally. Most
people pay without a protest, because
they know money must be raised for
relief some way.
The real trouble does not seem to
be in the tax theory itself, but in the
stupid way that legislators have ap-
piled it. Merchants report few COM
plants in purchases above so cents,
where whole pennies, instead Of mills,
are involved. 1t Is when the buyer
of S or 10 cent article Is required
to load his pockets up with strange
coins bearing only nuisance value
that the annoyance provokes revolt.
Unquestionably, this underlying sit
uation is doing more to awaken the
man In the street to tax. budgetary
and spending conditions than all en-
lightened academic discussion. He and
his housewife are greeted with token
reminders Of the problem 10 times or
more each day.
