R. A. Agreements WASHINGTON, Aug. SOT What does the N. R. A. mean? The following questions were de veloped and answered Monday by officials of the national recovery ad ministration. Are small businesses, employing only a few persons, required to pay stated wage scales and observe the hours specified In the blanket code? They are. How are unchartered home Indus tries, such as home laundries, affeo ted by the N. R. A.? Where only one person Is engaged' In such Industries he or she Is not affected. Where more are at work, the business is expected to come In under the blanket code. What about firms having curb service and employing several small boys or young men to serve cars at the curb? The minimum wage for a part time worker in such businesses Is expected to be such that If the employ work- at that wage for a full week or 40 hours, he would receive the mini mum weekly wage prescribed tor him Young Jim Bagby Inherits His Famous Father's Pitching Skill By W. J. Davis ATLANTA (ff) Happy days 'are here again for "Barge Jim" Bagby, former big league pitcher who hur led the Cleveland Indans to their first and only American league cham pionship back In 1020. ' It's on account of the way Jim Bagby Jr., at 16, is making them sit up and take notice as he pitches almost air-tight ball for the North Side Terrors, leading sandlot nine of Atlanta. Little Jim, as the six if oat-plus youngster Is called, came Into his own the other day. when he won the championship of the North Side league for his team by striking out 1 16 batters and allowing only two hits while he was about It. J "The other boys tell me that he has lots of speed and can throw a ' curve; I guess he must have both to strike out as many men as he does," Old Jim modestly commented, j Driveway The Bull Pen Naturally, Jim Is proud of his boy. ( Since he started out pitching a little over two years ago, Jim has taken la little time from his duties as pro prietor of a laundry to instruct the youth on certain fine points. The Bagby driveway has been the bull ' pen where Jim Sr., expatiated on the art of control, a matter on which .the elder Bagby. doted. 4'Old Jim was a smart pitcher," isald Wllbert Robinson, former man j ager of the Brooklyn team andi now 1 president of tho Atlanta Crackers, jvand I want to say If that kid of his !

YOU mOVyxactZy WHATS IN YOUR OWN HOME MADE MAYONNAISE LCIX f ( y X WESsoNnte re-employment Is an employer expected to dis charge employes where he has been spreading work by means of the "share-the-work" movement so as to give regular work for a less number of workers? No. Compensation of employes above the minimum wage group, whether now filed by the hour, day, week or otherwise, shall not be reduced, either to compensate the employer for Increases that he may be required to make In the minimum wage group to 'comply with the president's re employment agreement, or to turn this agreement Into a mere '"share-the-work" movement without a re sulting Increase of total purchasing power. Is an employer who has signed the president's re-employment agreement abiding by Its provisions If he turns off any of his employes? He Is not complying with the spirit, of the agreement. does prove a chip off the old block, ! he'll go a long way in baseball." It might be recalled that Robin- i son's last pennant winner at Brook- j lyn opposed the Indians in the world series the year Old Jim was In his prime, and lost. Naturally he thought well of Jim Bagby's pitch ing. Two Runs In Three Games , filpeed, control and stamina are young Jim's three strong points. Bagby pltohed three games for the Terrors this season, allowing but two runs and averaging ten strikeouts a game. He is a right hander, like his dad. Jim, the elder, thinks he will be a bigger man than himself, however, and;, will have more speed. "Well, If he's as good as his old man, that will be good enough," add ed Uncle Wllbert Robinson, by way of emphasis. NEW WARNING IS ISSUED BY GEN. JOHNSON (Continued from Page One) who aro entitled to display the Blue Eaglef Later Modification Ukely The hope is that this board may speed study of the many pending: codes and order Into temporary ef fect as many of them as are accept able. Later, nil1 will be studied In publlo hearings, and modifications made if any are necessary before they are promulgated by the presi dent and made permanent. This move will augment the con tinuing attempt to get employers to sign Individual agreements with the president to raise wages and shorten hours. One major purpose of the temporary codes Is to apply them to groups which feel the blanket presi dential agreement Is to lnelastlo for their purposes.
