The big question everybody was
asking '7as: will tonight's meet
ing be held?"
Mayor Hague, meanwhile, was
standing pat in his rigid policy
not to allow "Red interlopers" to
distribute literature and gain q
foothold in Industrial" Jersey
City.
SHOWDOWN
The "civil rights" issue be-
tween Hague and the CIO thus
neared a climax, with nationwide
interest growing and publicistS
and laymen taking sides ON the
controversial question involved.
Thomas told International News
Service Mayor Hague Is talking
unmitigated nonsense" about the
American flag. He asserted
"there is not shadow Of consti-
tutional authority In what Hague
is doing" in his battle with the
CIO.
'These strangers (CIO organ.
dzers) may as well understand"
Mayor Hague had said, "that
the Stars and Stripes will con-
tinue to fly over our city. The
blue and white will remain In
our emblem, and the Red flag
never will be hoisted here while
we Americans live in Jersey
City"
CALLS TT NONSENSE
Thomas countered:
"Such talk is nonsense. The
German flag Is all red except for
the swastika. The Russian flag
Is all red except for the hammer
and sickle. So you see when
Hague talks about red flags he
Is initiating the worst features
Of the countries that do have
red flags"

Sey City tonight, Thomas replied
he fully intended to, and added:

Acting on information supplied

Goldsby and others returned

slated for dismissal. No eye-wit-

ucts in which the labor content in
the final cost was greater than rs
per cent, but not in excess Of SO per
cent, automatically would fall into
code B, while such products as had

But in this case the industry would
be asked to get ready to move to the

period, such as six months or year.
Should Be Universal.
Believing as I do that the six-hour
day is the most efficient arrangement
of hours for modern industry, I fee
that we should lose no opportunity In
establishing this day for all industry
that is now equipped to operate under
such a plan. Furthermore, it seems
70 be necessary to place as much OF
American industry on the six-hour day
as possible to accomplish the end we
have in mind, namely, the solution o1
the unemployment problem.
johnson cited figures to support his
contention that standards of hours
and wages would not add materially
to costs of production, adding:
"The present situation and the
present method Of attempting to meet
that situation probably adds more to
the cost of finished products thar

generate electricity wherever the same
can be done--consistent with the i'm
provement of navigation and flood
control-to build transmission lines,
to transmit electricity thus produced
and sell the same to States, munich
palities and farm organizations"
The major departure from the T. v.
A. law dealt with injunctions.
This BILL" said Norris, a critic of
court injunctions against T. " A.
power activities, prevents the issu-
ance of any injunctions by district
courts enjoining any of the activities
Of the different authorities, except
upon the giving of a bond which will
compensate not only the authority, but
also municipalities or farm organiza-
tions which may be injured. or de-
prived of profits, because of such in
functions.
Bond to Protect From Loss.
Every municipality and every farm
organization that would be affected
by any such injunction is permitted
to intervene and the bond given prior
to the issuance of such injunctions
must be in an amount sufficient to
protect such authority, municipalities,
farm organization, from any damage
by the loss of revenue or otherwise
which may be sustained on account
of such injunctions."
The bill is designed to preserve all
the resources of the country" Norris
continued. "and to conserve the waters
of our streams. SO as to harmonic
as nearly as possible navigation and
flood control, and to prevent the de-
struction of the fertility of the soil
and increase such fertility wherever
possible"

Suggests Three Codes.
On the wage question, johnson
cited scornfully average wages running
below $40 per week in various Ameri-
can industries. No responsible con-
tention could be made, he emphasized
that an American family can live al
all decently on less than sic per week
Tying the need of wage-and- hour
