WALSH, GUFFEY
BILLS PUT ON
MUST LIST
international News Service

Congressional adjournment on
Saturday, August "a, was pre-
dicted today by Speaker ByrnS.
He added:
"They are talking about
Thursday In the Senate"
AS the long congressional Ses-
sion waned, two measures de-
signed to salvage something Of
the wreckage of MIRA today were
definitely placed on the White
House must" list.
They are the Walsh bill re-
curing Government contractors
and borrowers to meet NRA
wages and hours and the Guffey-
Snyder bill setting up q little
MIRA" for the soft coal industry.
The Roosevelt administration,
it was stated on high authority,
will use all of its influence to
break down the stubborn resist
ance which threatens both meas
ureS.
Walsh Bill Drastic
The Walsh bill, which passed
the Senate in the face Of opposi-
ton from original foes Of NFA,
is before the House Judiciary
Committee. A hearing is sched-
uled Monday.
) The bill provides that firms
seeking government contracts
must show that they maintained
MIRA wages and hours from the
effective date of the act, which is
80 days after the President ap-
proves it.
The President can write mini
mum wage and hours provisions
into contracts. Contractors can
be required to exact agreements
from Sub-contractorS to maintain
wages and hours. The bill even
covers production Of raw mate
rails.
Both RFC and Federal reserve
loans to industries are embraced
in its scope. Industries borrow
ing money must comply with con-
ditions.
A high Administration spokes-
man explained that because of
huge Government purchases,
reaching into every phase of in
duStry, the bill is regarded as
major legislation.
Manufacturers Protest
Vigorous protests have been
lodged against the measure by
manufacturers associations. The
Southern Manufacturers ASsocia-
ton has made a direct appeal to
members to block it.
The Guffey-Snyder bill was as,
Sured Of Senate consideration if
the House, as is expected, approves
it. A final vote is slated Monday
in the House.
This measure is expected to be
a new MIRA yardStick. If the
measure, which provides for price
fixing and general Government
regulation of the coal industry,
stands the test of the courts, ad.
vocates expect the principle to be
extended to textiles and other
industries.
President Roosevelt has assured
sponsors of the measure that his
enthusiasm for it has not leSSened.

An Old HOOP. Habit Democrats Blamed

A published story in . morning newspaper to the effect that republican headquarters in the 14th district, located at River and Washington streets, had been broken into and vads dalizcd Wednesday night, was met today by blanket denial on the part of the police des partnlent that the ptffported crime had been reported to the authorities.
 Supt. Joseph H. Mclean dc. clared that he had no infor- nation on the alleged crime until he read about it today; Chief Inspector William F. KeegaH of the detective bureau likewise was not informed; the complaint book at head quarters contained no report on the vandalism, nor the list. ing of any complaint by repub. lican leaders.
 Chief Inspector Kecgan de. clared that. if the crime were reported, it would be pr0bcd by the detective bureau, and the guilty culprits sought.
 The morning paper laid the vandalism at the doors of the Washington Hill democrats, delaring that the establish. nient of g.o.p. headquarters on Washington Hill twas too much for the democrats to stand". Police only laughed at the latter claim.
 Pretty soon", grinned one member of the police depart. ment, "thcy'll be asking us to check up on the democrats every time there's . hOldup or q burglary"
