D!SC0RD IN NN.R.A.
BOARD REPORTED
RiChberg Is Reported in Dis
agreement on Auto
Code Renewal.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Donald r. Richberg was disclosed
yesterday to be in disagreement with
officials of N. r. AS Administrative
Board.
This development followed persist
ent reports that there was sharp di-
vergence Of opinion among members
Of the board itself.
Richberg, head Of the National
Emergency Council, and also Of the
group named to draft N. r. A. policy,
said at the White House 1t was "an
unfortunate impression" that the auto
mobile code was to be renewed auto
matically on February /.
Members of the board had said they
knew of no difficulties in the way of
renewal.
An indication that members of the
board itself have opposite viewpoints
followed a recent speech by S. Clay
Williams, board chairman. He said
that N. R. A. should be continued on
a temporary basis, substantially with
out change. Other members Of the
board, questioned as to whether this
speech represented the board, said
mo" emphatically.
Careful Study Promised.
Blackwell Smith, N r. A. acting
counsel, said recently the board would
make no recommendations on the
question of legislation. Another Of
fetal said any recommendations would
be strictly informal in nature, and
that more or less formal suggestions
would be made on whatever legislation
was shaped by Congress.
Members of the board interpret the
differences as the natural outgroWth
of healthy argument between men of
strong opinions.
Richberg said the automobile code
would be carefully studied before a
decision was reached on its renewal.
Discussing the work of an N. R. A.
committee, which is studying the pos
sibility of smoothing out employment
fluctuations in the industry, he said
the committee was named particu-
larly to report on working conditions,
and more specifically to study the
possibility of regularizing employ
ment."
He said the automobile employers
had shown an interest in the regu-
larization Of employment, but the
main question is the speed with which
it is to be done"
Renewal Is Expected.
A spokesman for the automobile
industry said that so far as he knew
the industry expected to renew the
code without change on February l.
Whatever the result of the N. R. A.
study, it was his opinion that pro-
posed changes could not be made in
time to include in the code, and that
changing of the code presumably
would necessitate hearings. Usually
a 20-day notice is given for such
hearings, more time than is available
between now and February /.
Meanwhile, the N. r. A. was criti-
cized by the Machinery and Allied
Products Institute in statement that
"the policy of restricting production
of machinery and other capital goods
which was written into early N. r. A.
codes still constitutes an important
bar TO economic recovery and re-en-
ployment in the capital goods indus
tries"
N. r. A. recently has removed some
production restrictions, and there Is
strong sentiment for further action
along this line, although the Recovery
Board has not enunciated policy.

Chippendale Furniture

We constantly are hearing about
Chippendale furniture. Our deriva-
tives from the work of this great
English cabinet maker are among
the most popular in modern furni-
ture stocks; but they really bear
little resemblance to the document
ed work of Thomas Chippendale,
according to house furnishing ex-
perts. The Chippendale style is
not the original creation Of any
one man but the product Of a
school, according to a writer in the
Cleveland Plain Dealer. It was
from the French and from a re-
vival of interest in Chinese and
Gothic motives that the Chippen-
dale school drew inspiration. It.
was more a school Of ornament
than it was a school Of style. Chip
pendale's name has become generic
for all furniture produced in Eng
land and America between 1850 and
1880. This includes the pre- Chip
pendale period.

Domestic System of England

! The domestic system of England
lis the name applied to the system
Of household industry which pre-
ceded the factory system. There
was little factory work previous to
the early Eighteenth century. In
dustrial projects, particularly tex
tiles, were largely manufactured in
the home under the personal su-
pervision either Of the merchant
or his deputies. Due to this, hours
were variable and wages were IN
regulated. This resulted in a sys-
tenn known as sweating.
