Resume \ of the Day’s News By the Associated Press - MAY US -' headers Study \R i Washington Price wars, strike threats and a series of de cisionless administration confer ences were today's aftermath to supreme court scrapping of NRA The uncertainty spread swiftly from the focal point of NRA to other administration efforts. White House lieutenants on cap itol hall snatched the pending AAA amendment bill back from the floor into the senate committee for drastic revision, convinced it could not be fitted in existing form to the constitutional pattern defined by the court for the other phase of the administration's recovery pro President Ron •• v; !•' called to the White Ho • e<. . iionol load ers including th chairmen of the two committees handling NUA leg islation, Senator Harrison and Rep resentative Donghton. Tiiey reached no conclusion on wlmt course should he taken. There was talk - but no formal action - of reviving NRA on a voluntary basis, with compulsory clauses eliminated but hour and wage and child labor provisions re tained. There also came in for dis cussion in labor quarters the feasi bility of submitting a constitution al amendment to referendum which would broaden and define the gov ernment's power over industry. Indication of effort to preserve some of the NRA came from busi ness. The National Association of Manufacturers said 200 firms had posted notice there would be no change in wages or hours even though NRA was gone by the board. French Govt, in Crisis PARIS Devaluation became an open issue in Fiance tonight as Premier Pierre-Etienne Flandin’s government, its political life in the balance, asked parliament to grant it sweeping emergency powers to defend the franc. A grim, almost silent chamber of deputies listened coolly while Fi nance Minister Louis Germain Martin revealed the full frighten ing extent of the flight from the franc, scathingly assailed “specu lators," declared “devaluation would cause general impoverish ment in France” and pleaded for near-dictaior.ship in economic mat ters. With the cabinet’s overthrow on the issue freely predicted in the chamber lobbies, the deputies ad journed until Thursday despite the government's request that it begin discussion immediately. Strong hostility to the government’s de mand quickly developed in the powerful radical socialist party, which counts 10D deputies in the chamber.
