Nor do I think 1t will be necessary to

The projected bill must be rushed,
because unless it is enacted by June

Apparently throwing off the
last vestiges of restraint imposed
by N. r. AS now dead wage
hour and fair trade practice pro-
visions, President Roosevelt yes
terday dismissed All court cases
involving violations of Blue
Eagle rules.
This wholesale action, coupled
with an announcement that 9TH
er legal actions contemplated
would not be initiated, followed
closely the dropping of hints in
high quarters that the President
would propose no stop-gap N.
r. A. legislation. And If any
permanent plan was ready for
submission. congressional lead
ers, at least, lacked any inkling
of it.
Mr.. Roosevelt cruised on Chesa-
peske Bay aboard the yacht Sequoia
last night while the Capital pondered
without answer the course the ad-
ministration will take. The most
uniform speculation of observers was
that further sounding of the Nations
reaction to the overthrow of N r. A.
would precede any definite action.
Historic Cases Killed.
Labor and other cases that made
history were formally thrown out by
the White House announcement,
issued while Mr. Roosevelt sailed.
This act constituted his approval Of a
Recommendation by Attorney General
Cummings.
Involved were nearly two score
labor cases. including the Houde

and Goodrich labor election cases,
and the Weirton Steel and Geif

unions.
Others. both initiated by and
against the Government. concerned
actions taken by the Alcohol Control
and Petroleum Administrations. the
National Steel Labor Relations Board,
the A. A. A. and Textile Labor Board.
Final Release of Business.
The dismissals generally were in
terpreted in Washington as not only
final release on business formerly
regulated by the N. R. A., but a
concession that no hope remained
for pressing such actions following

decision.
