NEW N.L.R A. BILL
KNOCKS OUT JAIL
Several Changes in Measure
Reported Drawn by
Presidents Advisers.
~ the Associated Press.

3y the Associated Press.
The Jail penalties of the national in
dustrial recovery act would 60 into the
discard under the terms of a bill re-
ported to have been drawn by Presi-
dent Roosevelt's advisers.
This change, an authoritative source
said today. is one of several altera-
tions in the N. I. r. A. now contem-
plated by the administration.
The present N. I. r. A., which is
due to expire in June, provides for
heavy jail penalties for violators, but
this power has not been used exten-
sively. It often has been criticized as
unenforceable. Fines would be retained
in the new bill.
Medium as to Time.
The newest draft of the N. I. r. A.
proposed for the future, it was said
today, seeks to strike medium be-
tween permanent and temporary legis-
lation. The bill would extend the re-
covery act, with alterations, for two
more years, but it also contains a pro-
vision permitting the law to become
permanent unless Congress decides to
alter it at the end of the two-year
period.
An attempt has been made, it was
said, to clarity the antitrust provi-
sions through specific statement Of
what may or may not be done in the
way of cooperation under codes
This is regarded as an attempt to meet
criticisms that N. R. A. has fostered
monopoly.
Action Made Mandatory.
The new proposal also would "re-
quire" the President to impose hour
and wage provisions in cases where
industries submitted codes in which
the wage-hour clauses were made
quate. Under the present law he may
take such action, but it is not man
datory.
Price fixing is not entirely banned
in the bill. it was said, although there
is strong admonition against it. The
President himself has let it be known
he favored protection against the loss
leaders" practice, whereby one store
sells below cost a product which is
anothers staple merchandise.
