Action Seems Necessary.
Dissatisfaction of Industry with
the codes of MIRA has risen until OF
late The administration has seen the
necessity of action upon the future
OF the recovery program as soon
as possible Publicity ~ articles
By General Johnson and other fac
tors have impressed the idea that
public opinion has placed the ad-
ministraiion as abandoning the
MIRA. la contradiction OF what
might be called an undercurrent of
public opinion. Donald r. Rich.

has committed himself as In favor
OF It's continuation without altera-
ton FOR the time being a; least.
Object OF some national attention
Is the opinion OF tie American
Liberty league as TO the future of
MIRA. IL agrees that NRA must be
continued. but lays down six
guiding principles" under which
the continuance must be admins
tered They are:
!. Continuance Of unusual execu-
tive authority should be only for
a limited period, with no attempt
10 enact permanent legislation now.
. Congress should guard zeal.
ously its prerogatlve under our plan
OF government In which there are
three coordinate branches, the leg
Islatiye. the executive and the ju-
dlclal."
& Undue encroachment upon SOW
erelgny OF the states should be
avoided.
4. government in industry
should be the goal 10 promoting re-
coyery.
3. Rights OF employers as well
as employees. should be preserved
with hours aud wages not ~to I'm
pose excessive burdens upon indus
try"
G. Emergency legislation should
not be a vehicle for experiment
alton with untried theories"
The American people are Will
Ing to confer emergency powers
upon the Executive" says the
league. But they hesitate TO write
them into permanent laws.
II was perhaps well that the Ex-
ecutive had a free hand at the
start"
or the impending Supreme court
decisions, the Liberty league rem
ders an opinion voiced by many or
ganIzatlons: ''It would be a mis-
take 10 proceed with permanent
legislation until the legal founda-
tions are more firmly established"
Most OF the situation In contro-
versy will be cleared up to a great
extent with the settlement OF the
Belcher case. This case might never
have come up were our Supreme
court Ike that OF Canada. allowed
by our Constitution TO offer advis-
ory opinions about laws being en-
acted. AS II is, we have law that
has been In force for well over a
year, yet has been questioned by
many as TO the legitimacy OF its
birth. Yet until the Belcher case
Is heard before the Supreme court
we win not know whether or not
the men whom we have elected to
legislate for US were technically
right In passing II.

ters that the personal message OF

information received here by Joe A.

tons from the san Benito area.
The FLA loans may be obtained
fer refinancing purpose, repair Of

and for new construction. The fact
that money for payment Of delin-
Quent taxes may be included In the
loan makes them similar to the II.
