WASHINGTON, March 30.-The
new NRA bill. brought into the open
for the first time, drew whitening
fire from its critics today. They
intend forcing major revisions.
The initial attack was led by
Senator William E. Borah (R.,
Idaho and William Green, presi-
dent of the American Federation Of
Labor. Supporting them were hall
dozen or more other influential
Senators.
Senator Pat Harrison 3D., Miss i,
chairman of the Senate Finance
Committee which drafted the ex-
tension, introduced it for the avowed
purpose of bringing the entire NRA
question down to brass tacks and re-
moving uncertainty which the Ad-
ministration felt was hindering
recovery.

Deacon Mills, outside, spits out
furtive chew of tobacco brushes the
snow from his shoulders and pokes
his head in the door. "Doin' any
good?" he bellows, and then grins
toothlessly.
A half-dozen tired women, stand
ing between racks of worn dresses,
shake their heads in unison. You
near have to give the stuff away to
make a sale, an then the people
kick. 7 tell you, folks just haven't
got the money
The deacon shakes his head dole
fully and stamps his feet. "Shucks," !"
he chuckleS. "You women make me
laugh. Jes' like your oyster suppers;
you work twicet as hard as you would
to hum an you take in less n 500"
He turns up the collar of his over
coat. II gotta be gettin' up to

Hats, 5 cents; shoes, a dime: a
suit of mended underwear, nickel,
and a suit of clothes or thread-bare
overcoat for so cents. Racks of worm
out dresses, tables of shoes that need
half-soling. Cold winds demand
warm clothing
A few customers begin to drift in.
They pick up worn garments and
hold them to the light. They sigh,
they kick, they haggle. Mrs. Tod
Hill from up on Maple street, whose
husband owns the coal yard, buys a
whole armful of warm wool dresses
for So to make hooked rugs. Mrs.
HORSEBACK from down in the fats,
whose husband hasn't worked for
almost two years, buys a baby's dress
for a dime. A 12-year-old boy looks
down at the floor when told that
there are no mittens He hangs around
and acts as II he didn't believe it.
Again the door swings in and the
snow spits through the black opening
spitefully. Here is a man who knows
exactly what he wants. He is tall
and thin and shaved within an inch
of his life. He has no overcoat and
his light gray Summer trousers are
too short and they do not match his
coat. But they are clean. scrupulously
clean, and pressed. He carries q baby,
bundled in a long, wool shawl. She
is fat and sweet and laughing. His
wife struggles with the door.
"Have you any sweaters. ma'am?"
he asks pleasantly.
1.-THE sweaters were all sold this
morning." he is told.

She looks confused and Just little
frightened. I'VE can't afford" she
begins.
The tall man mods and winks.
Make her put it on" he says. wen
talk about affording it later"
The coat Is really quite pretty. It
is black and warm and has a long
fur collar. The woman, hardly more
than a girl, lays down a loaf of
bread and package of meat. IT
don't know" She takes of her
thin coat.
Gee. it looks good, ma. Is it
warm?"
She mods her head. "It's awful
pretty, but isn't it a little short
shorter than they're wearin' 'em,
mean?"
She is told that it really looks very
good on her. She takes the coat off
slowly.
TRY it on again, Ellie, I think it
looks nice"
II really don't need a coat" She
picks it up again and strokes the fur.
Il like the fur"
1T isn't worn a bit, see? Try 1t
on again. I wasn't looking very good
the first time"
Obediently, she slips 1t on and walks
back and forth like a model before
his admiring eyes. The baby laughs
and crows. I'VE didn't plan to buy
coat this year." She looks across the
table at her husband. But it does
look stylish. do wish-'
He smiles back at her, reaSSuringly.
Il could wear it just for best"
Well take it. ma am" The little
wifes eyes are troubled, but he gets
out a worn purse, holding the baby
awkwardly. Il didn't need a sweater,
anyway"
Slowly she starts to take of the
coat and then she laughs. There Is
an excited catch in her voice "I didn't
really expect to buy" she says.
Keep it on, ma; it's cold out
side right now"
She shakes her head stubbornly. "I
want to wear it to church tomorrow
and. besides, it's showing. I'd get 1t
all wet"
Two crumpled dollar bills change
hands and the tall man grins wide
ly. Its a poor family that can't
afford one stylish one" he says and
they go out. carrying their bundle
proudly. The snow spits spitefully
through the open door. .
