Extension Of Auto Code Made
 To June 10th
(By The Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1 = Presi- dent Roosevelt Thursday night ex- tended the automobile code to ex- tend through to June 18th, with am endments designed to spread em- ployment more evenly over the year.
 Relations between the administra- tion chiefs and the American Feeder ation of Labor were at the breaking point this morning, following the ex tension of the auto code, with chang es designed to spread employment. President Green of the A. F. L. de- clared that hte code imposed on la bor without hearing.
 MIRA officials pointed to the recent government supervised elections in Detroit. Green later announced that organized labor would not accept the code extension.
 He made his statement to the Sen ate Judiciary Committee which is considering the Black, thirty-hour week bill, in these words:
 We protest against this code. We will not accept it, not be regulated by it, and not yield to it.'
 Green further stated: "The code has absolutely failed to spread work because under it the workers are compelled or required to work all most unlimited hours at the discre- ton of the manufacturers"
 A recent ballot conducted among auto workers by the National Auto mobile Labor Board was reported to have shown that ninety percent of those voting were opposed to A. F. l.. affiliation.
