COAL BOARD SOON

Before September IS.
Bill Is Signed.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
President Roosevelt plans to appoint
before September IS board to ad-
minister the new Guffey bituminous
coal control law.
The President signed yesterday this
measure setting up Little N. r. A"
for the industry.
Appropriations to finance the ad-
ministration Of the law were con-
tanned in the third deficiency bill,
which failed to pass In the last ses-
sion Of Congress, but Mr.. Roosevelt
expressed belief at . press conference
that necessary funds could be obtain
ed elsewhere.
Coal men meanwhile discussed at
length the probable source Of tn.
much-predicted court test Of the
measure.
One prominent producer, who de-
clined to be quoted by name, said that
among operators who sell coal in the
commercial market, sentiment for
testing the bills disputed constitu-
tionality was rapidly waning. The test,
II any, he added. likely would come
from captive" coal companies owned
by steel and utility corporations.
The entire output Of these captive
companies is used by their owners.
Counsel for these companies con-
tended at hearings on the bill that
a tax on their production. such As thc
Guffey act provides. would be con-
fiscatory.
The labor provisions OF the act also
are understood to be held unconstl-
tutional by some Of the captive"
companies.

KOKOMO, Ind, August 31.-United

Z publican, of Iowa, speaking at party
rally here last night, declared Frank
lin Delano Roosevelt will be the only
issue in the next national campaign.
= Dickinson asserted the President
should be subjected to several charges,
including:
He has repudiated platform pledges
: made by his party and upon which
he was elected to office.
He has committed the country to
unsound monetary experiments, con-
demned by nearly all recognized
, economists, and In consequence has
disrupted American foreign trade
with serious and permanent injury
to agriculture and industry.
He has delayed economic recovery
by forcing upon the country dubious
measures Of reform which. by penal
izing thrift, strike at the national
economy. and by political subsidy
under the guise Of relief break down
the morale and self-reliance Of great
numbers of our citizens.
He has remained Indifferent to his
promises of balancing the budget, or
reducing national expenditures, and
has encouraged extravagances and the
wasting Of public funds which have
placed the American people under
a burden Of debt that now threatens
the solvency Of the Government itself.
He has, in public utterances, been
-disrespectful to the Supreme Court
of the United States and has sought
by deliberate attempt to 'alibi' the
failure Of the New Deal by placing
the blame falsely on the courts"

In fact, word has been passed down

OF course, the State Department

Italy Not Good Risk.
But the facts are that about q week

pointedly that negotiations be speeded
