LABOR GETS VOICE

Just to make certain Lewis and his miners will have hand in de- velopments, the bill provides that a labor representative sit on each of the 23 district boards it creates. The coal industry will provide the other two. These boards will have authority to bring together all the factors going into determining the cost of production of coal. Recom- mendations of these boards then are to be given special weight by the federal bituminous coal commis- sion in saying what should be the minimum price of coal at the mine.
 To the labor spokesman, on each board will fall the job of includ- ing a fair wage for labor in the cost of coal Back of him will be John L. Lewis and his miners.

 To finance the act a tax of one cent ton on coal at the mines is imposed. This is roughly one-half of one per cent of the usual $2 a ton mine price.
 If any coal mine owner refuses to abide by the terms of the act and insists on mining as much as he likes and selling at cut rates if he likes, the law provides 20 per cent penalty tax.
 There is another provision in the bill designated to protect consum- CTS. If the coal mines should at tempt to take advantage of an emergency shortage. of coal and hike prices upward, the Federal Coal Commission can impose a price ceiling beyond which prices may not climb.
 Just how nicely the Federal Board can balance production against consumption will be discovered only by experience.

Industry Makes Strides Toward
 New Prosperity
Net Profits Advance 30 Per Cent Since I933 Still
 40Per Cent Under 1929

NEW YORK, March 4.-American industry made long strides last year toward a prosperity of dumping proportions, analysts agreed as they studied data indicating that net profits exceeded seven billion dol lars to rank 1886 as the best year since 1929.
 A tentative estimate, it was an- nounced today, would indicate 2 30 percent advance from 1883, al- though 40 percent under the elev- en billion, six hundred and fifty million dollars earned in 1929.
 Figures are based on statements of thousand corporations.
 Some writers saw vastly improved conditions in industry as due to its willingness to accede to labor's de- mands.

SLAYER OF 5 UNDER ARREST
 IN CALIFORNIA
Japanese, Who Killed Wife and Four Children, Near
 Auburn, Confesses

RICHMOND, Cal, March 4. = Chief of Police L. E. Jones said Enechi Kato, 36 year old Japanese farm laborer, charged with first degree murder of his wife and four young children near Auburn, Wash, has been arrested here.
 Chief Jones said Kato confessed killing Mrs. Kato and the chil- dren by shooting or strangling them. He then placed kimonos on the bod ies and buried them in the yard of his home near Auburn, with mat tress on top of them.
 Information that Kato bought a ticket for Sacramento shifted the search for him here.
 Chief Jones sad Kato readily admitted the slayings after his ar rest but questioning had to be con- ducted through an interpreter.
 No satisfactory explanation for the motive was obtained, however.
 Kato's surrender was brought about through respect for the law displayed by E. H. Icayama who had given the Japanese job as a field hand about two weeks ago. Kate would moan and groan when he tried to sleep and explained at first that it was lonesomeness for his family, then he finally admitted the killings.

Having passed yesterday a long and final list of it's own bills, among them the memorial endorsing the Dimond bonded indebtedness meas ure now before Congress, the Ter ritoriai House today began con- sideration of Senate measures after considering first the vocational edu- cation bill which carries an ap- propriation and thus has leeway to get to the Senate.
 The measure, request of the Board of Education, recommends that vocational education be con- cluded at the end of the school year and provides an appropriation of approximately s10.000 to complete the work to that time.
