WASHINGTON, March Is (UP)
The primary objective of NRA
restoration of wages and en-
ployment-has been achieved, s.
Clay Williams, retiring chairman
of the recovery agency told the
senate finance committee yes
terday.
The committee is holding hear
ings preparatory to revising and
extending NRA when it expires
in June.
Reforms, such as the elimina-
ton of child labor and the pro-
motion of collective bargaining
also are part of the NRA picture,
Williams said, but wages and en-
ployment are paramount.
Most of the complaints, ne be-
lieves, came from "inefflclent
operators who were able to MAIN
tain a profit only by the margin
thew take out of wages"
Sen. William H. King. d., Utah
asked whether NRA had cqpsld-
cred adoption of the British

maintain profits in order to

it had been considered, but no
action had been taken.
Price fixing, Williams said,
still is NRA's most troublesome
question. He believes it is caus-
ed by the demand to do away
with unfair trade practice regula-
lions.
Gen. Hugh S. Johnson, accord
ing to Williams. had tried to
meet the problem in the retail
code by establishing maximum
of 10 per cent between cost and
selling price. In 800 codes. he
added. there were provisions
against selling below cost of pro-
duction.
Sen. James Couzers. r., Mich,
suggested it might be a good
idea for NRA to have access to
the internal revenue bureaus

termining cost of production.
Sen. Daniel o. Hastings, R.,
Del, said industries should be
allowed to draw up their own
codes voluntarily without gov
eminent interference, but that
the codes then should be enforc-
ID by the government.

If the decision holds, there will
be a showdown fight between the
two blocks supporting the Vinson

more of a fight than when the
measure finally chosen is passed
by the house. Chairman John j,
O'Connor of the rules committee
thinks the committee will even
tuallv come through with q rule
carrying out its tentative deci-
sion.
While the house always has
passed bonus legislation, a def

exception.

The farmers share of the ma
