BUSINESS IN
NATION KEEPS
To NRA CODES

NEW YORK, June 3. U.P)-The
close of the first week since the
supreme court inValidated the Ma
tional Industry Recovery Act found
representative industries through
out the country continuing to ad-
here to wage and hour provisions
of the outlaWed codes.
Retail prices, for the most part,
were unchanged after the first burst
OF price cutting on cigarettes, cos
meticS, and small merchandise.
The liquor industry was standing
firm on the code provisions. Deal
ers and wholesalers were described
as pleased since experience has
proved the penalty of price upsets
in reduced profits.
The steel industry continued it's
policy. There were reports that
buyers were asking special dis
counts but there was no evidence
they were granted. 1t was under
stood there might be some adjust
ment of hours in the interests of
more economical operations.
The large chain store systems,
generally, abided by early an
nouncements that there would be
no change in their employee poll
cies. Their prices are unchanged
and as yet, few reports of under
selling by competitors have come
in.
The tendency to maintain code
provisions was evidence in state
ments from many business leaders

FARM BUREAU BOARD DISCUSSES
DISQUALIFICATION AND MEMBERSHIP

Discussion of disqualification and
membership were two of the most
important subjects discussed at
Saturdays meeting of farm bureau
directors held in the court house.
Sam Robinson for the committee
on disqualification made an interest
ing talk on the recent tour of
members of that committee with
Mr.. and Mrs. Hugh T. Osborne, to
the Kern county hospital and the
Ross-Loos clinic in Los Angeles.
This committee is making a study
OF disqualification and medical care
and is seeking to collect facts rela-
tive to various projects organized to
secure better and less expensive
medical care and disqualification.
The Kern county project is sup
ported partly by taxation and is
under the supervision of the board
of supervisors. Patients who have
been residents of the county for one
years and of the state, three, may
have disqualification at the cost OF
three dollars per day, the theory
back of it being that health is as
much a function of government as
is education.
RoSS-LooS hospital clinic in Los
Angeles was organized originally by
the employees of the bureau of
water and power and as other
groups have since joined it includ-
ing the employees and faculty of
use Robinson declared. This clinic
is operated on a plan similar to in
surance, the head of the family pay
ing 81 per month and being entitled
to a certain amount of hospitaliZa-
ton and medical care, the family
members receiving care at lowered
rates. There are $4,000 subscribers
and some $4,000 patients treated.
Robinson urged that others visit
these clinics TO see for themselves
their operation.
Plan Membership Drive
Membership was also discussed,
there being '288 members against
goal Of 500. An active campaign is
to be conducted, each center seek
ing to have a membership of so
with Spruce Westmorland and
EaStSide-SunSet close to their goals.
A committee composed Of Scott
B. Foulds. c. G. Halliday and j. E.
HarShman was appointed to draw
up regulations A)verning member
ship classifications.
Frank G. Beyschlag, Iarm ad-
visor, was called upon and gave
the highlights of extension service
activities during the past month
which have been reported from
time to time in The Press.
One item in his talk OF interest to
all was that relative to the grow
ing importance of livestock feed
ing as valley industry and an
other was the conference on salt
and alkali land problems to be held
in Riverside June 81 and to which
the valley has been invited as be-
ing vitally interested in these prob
lens. c. S. Schofield, salt expert,
and his staff will conduct the con-
ference and farm bureau members
have been particularly invited.
Favor Summer Camp
Rev. j. c. Spencer talked on the
value of recre2.' .'onal camps in the
health of boys and girls and spoke
on the possibility Of securing from
the state a grant OF land for a
summer camp at Lake Cuyamaca.
The board passed a resolution ia
voring this project and urged the
board of supervisors to take up this
project.
