Power Trust Fighting
Meantime, the power trust
comes to town with a flock of
statements handed out to news
paper correspondents claiming
that the Presidents move to take
the evil features out of holding
companies is a move to abolish
such concerns.
In round.robin statement
from 10 large power concerns,
headed Regulation, Not Destruc.
tion," the claim is made that the
Pres id an is power policy will
seriously impair the service Of
the country's whole utility sys-
tenn and would irreparably dam
age many sound operating com.
panies which are today depend
ent on holding company assist
ance."
The power trust threatens to
hold up all the Roosevelt legisla-
ton connected with power by
flooding the committees with
propaganda and placing a regi-
ment of witnesses on the stand.
Both Wings Attack
The New Deal fiscal and finan.
cial policies, veering toward the
middle of the road, are being at.
tackled by Right and Left Wingers.
AS the plans unfold it is seen that
the New Deal wants to extend and
make flexible government loans to
industry through the Reconstruc.
ton Finance Corporation and
wants to carry on loans to agri-
culture in a manner that will pre-
serve the national credit.
Specifically, the RFC policy
under President Roosevelt is to
lend money so that private indus
try can come back" and take it's
proper place, not to flood it with
money subsidies which will never
be repaid.

PUSHES
OPPOSITION To
NEW DEAL
Action on Auto, Cigarette
Codes Brings Row; Farley
at White House Today

Organized labor as represented
in the National Capital is prepar.
inc TO make a last stand defiance
of the New Deal and President
Roosevelt's evident middle-of-the
road labor principles as the Presi-
dent today puts finishing touches
on the message he will send to
Congress this week asking for an
extension of the NRA after its
expiration June 16.
Coming closely after the Admin.
istration's stand for q 40-hour
week in the extensive automobile
industry, in the face of labor'S
demands for a 3O-hour week,
President Roosevelt's action In
signing the cigarette code last
night is taken by labor to be a
further defiance of its insistent
demands for a higher wage and a
shorter week
The cigarette industry has been
Goddess, its workers operating on
a sort of general agreement until
today. The code which the Presi.
dent signed last night provides for
a 40-hour week, wages running
from IS cents to 40 cents an hour,
In announcing the code the NRA
declared it will result in an in.
crease of 20 to 40 per cent for
unSkilled labor. Maximum hours
of wark permitted average about
A..
The cigarette industry is re-
garded as not important numeri-
cally, although the code affects
the tobacco States. The impor-
lance Of the code signing is in the
fact that the Administration has
not followed the desires of organ
lied labor, nor has it been dictated
to by the employers in the indus
try.
Organized labor leaders are re-
ported today as preparing to meet
President Roosevelt, possibly to-
day. They are concerned over the
automobile code which is looked
upon as slap in the face Of the
American Federation of Labor.
Despite President Roosevelt'S
statement that the matter is in
the hands of the Government and
no favor can be shown to organ
izations, President Green Of the
A. F. of L. issued weekend state
ment declaring that the hand Of
some enemy to labor IS seen In
the new Administration policy.

FISHER
ATTACKS NEW
BANK BILL
Measure vitality Concerns
Everyone; Urges Congress
Curb on President

The Administrators proposed
new banking bill was attacked
today by Prof. Irving Fisher,
Yale University economics profes-
sor, as making President Roose-
welt an economic dictator and
granting despotic power over the
future of the nation.
Declaring the bill vitality con-
cerned every man, woman and
child, Prof, Fisher said it could
through proper administration"
prevent future depressions and
boomS.
Future Peril Seen
Prof. Fisher pointed out. how.
ever. that even if full trust is i'm.
posed in President Roosevelt, no
one could say how future admin
iStrations might administer such
legislation. He added:
president Roosevelt wants q
free hand But it is high time
that COntreSs. in granting
power, shall impose definite
limitations and responsibility as
to its exercise. And, are we
sure Of Mr.. Roosevelt? Is he
sure Of himself? Do we know
what Mr.. EccleS will dO?"
Mariner S. EccleS is head OF
the Federal Reserve Board. Fisher
continued:
There is no criterion in this
bill. 1t is indefinite, wide open.
The President can make the re-
serve board, and the board can
make the banks do anything,
good or bad"
Economies Dictator"
Fisher said the bill comes
nearer to making the President
an economic dictator than all pre-,
vious legislation combined" He
called for a criterion of the vol
ume Of credit" and pointed out
that a 10 per cent arbitrary in
crease in the purchasing power OF
the dollar, possible under the bill
would make a paper increase OF
$45. 000, 100000 in national wealth
He continued:
"Such a change would wipe
out most of the profits Of bust
ness corporations. 1t would
lower stock values, increase the
burdens of debts and taxes,
weaken the position of farmers"

WANTS TWO MORE YEARS
The Roosevelt labor policy may
find expression in the message
going to Congress this week, pre-
sumably, on the extension of
the NRA. The original act ex-
pires June Is and it is gen.
orally understood that the Presi-
dent favorS twoyear extension
of life with certain changes in
detail. The features to remain
are ban on child labor, the
right of collective bargaining,
minimum wages and maximum
hours.
Labor leaders today are lining
up behind President William
Green, of the A. F. of L., who
sticks to his opinion that labor
has been tricked by the NRA
auto-labor board. Both MIRA
officials and labor heads agree
; there is a bad situation in the
- automobile industry. including
unemployment over slack periods
and too much slave-driving work
in the peak periods; but the
methods of relieving the situa-
ton differ.
Labor sticks to the 30-hour
week; the Government has facts
and figures to support 40 hours,
as evidenced in the cigarette
code, signed last night, covering
$4,000 workers and raising wages
of unskilled workers from Is to
40 per cent and establishing max.

GOLD DECISION
SEEN FEB. 10

Rising prestige of the Supreme
Court was noted in the Capital
today as it brushed aside wide
spread clamor and planned to let
another decision day pass without
deciding the momentous gold
cases.
Failure to rush decision has
proved a bitter disappointment to
those who expected the Court to
move quickly to avoid the chaos"
Attorney General Cummings pre-.
dicted if private and public bonds
were ruled to bear a SO per cent
premium.
The terse announcement Of c.
Elmore Cropley, clerk of court,
that no opinions would be handed
down today did not, of course, pre-
clude a decision tomorrow.
Many orders, including action
on the petition of Tom Mooney
for rehearing, were expected to be
handed down.
Close observation of the gold
cases have expressed hope that
the decision might come on Lin
coins birthday, when the stock
exchanges are closed and violent
fluctuations would thus be
avoided.
General expectation was that
the decision had been put off until
February 10 at least, and perhaps
until March 4. A month now has
passed since the cases were sub
mitted to the Court.

CLASH
AGAIN ON
BORDER
New Outbreaks Feared As
Rome MobiIizes 10000
Reserves

Adds ABABA. Abyssinia, Feb.
II G.N.SD.-Partial military con-
troll of Ethiopia by Italy was
regarded by apprehensive govern
ment circles today as one posi-
BILE outcome of the renewed
fighting along the Italian Somali'
land border.
Seven hundred EthiopianS and
40 native soldiers in the Italian
forces were killed in a series Of
engagements, according to unot'
,ficial reports reaching here.
Charges Countered
The Philippians attacked the
town of Lamaba and occupied
Scillave and Afdub, according to
a formal protest made by the
Italian minister.
The government countered
these charges by saying that
italian troops provoked the AT.
dub incident, and that Scillave
had been an Ethiopian military
outpost for 10 years.
Italy'S protest, it was feared,
would be followed by actual mill
tary intervention if Emperor
Halle Selassie proves unable to
control his forces.
French Reasons Cited
France would back Italy in any
such action, because France lost
nearly a hundred men in an
AbysSinian raid in French Somali-
land recently, and France has
shown an increasing disposition
to facilitate Italy'S growing power
in Abyssinia.
The latest clashes occurred
along the underlined frontier south
of Ualual, where 3" Italians and
10 AbysSinians were killed in a
battle last December.
Apologies by Abyssinia brought
an Italian promise to attempt to
settle the matter by arbitration,
and to survey the border, but this
arrangement is now believed to
have been upset. and drastic Ital-
ian action is expected.
