Codes for Retailers and Drug
Stores Submitted With
Mark-up Clause
(CoUbo4 from pc 1)
minimum price t ten per eent
ilwre the "wholesale delivered
price" and the drug code prohibit
ed drastic, slashing of retail prices
ob standard, trade-marked roods
whose price Is announced "by the
manufacturer. .TV a: retail' clause
reads: : "
"In order to . check predatory
price catting and. minimise oper-
ating losses resulting therefrom.
an In-order to assure that the
retailer shall be at least partially
compensated- tor the service he
renders the consumer, en and
after the. effective date of this
code -no retailer shall offer f oY
sale, sell, exchange or give away
aay merchandise, . . . here
after below minimum price which
shall be the wholesale delivered
price as hereinafter defined with
th addition nf otiarro tt ten
per cent.
'Wholesale delirered price' as
ased herein means the lowest
gross billing price, as of any date
avcattt 30 days prior to the date
of resale, made to many retailer
in- the given market area less only
such discounts as are extended
to all retailers and plus delivery
costs paid by the retailers."
Whiteside said this could not
be construed as price fixing since
no profit could enter a retail
transaction unless the merchant
obtained 25 per eent above the
wholesale price.
He added its value would rest
primarily on limiting retailers'
losses and preventing continuance
of "loss leaders" selling by which
merchants attract customers with
low-price goods in the hope they
will -bay items carrying a much
higher profit.
Limit on Price Cut
The drug codes price regula
tion plan barred selling standard,
trade-marked goods whose retail
prices are advertised to the public!
or indicated on the goods, at a
discount greater than 21 per cent
under such declared prices.
xiowever, u tne merchandise is
net moved from the shelves, the
retailer may offer it back to the
wholesaler at the sale price and
if not accepted may sell it as
"clearance merchandise." - .
The retail code, was submitted

ment, furniture, general merchan
dise, hardware, limited price va

ministration, has been designated
by President Roosevelt to direct
Russian trade negotiations whose
vast scope is expected to have an
important bearing on recognition
of the Soviet republic.
The selection of Morgenthau, a
close friend and trusted financial
advisor of the president, to han
dle the various proposals for Sov
iet purchases in this country was
taken by observers as a significant
instance of President Roosevelt's
interest in both trade and diplo
matic questions involving Russia.
In official circles it was said
Morgenthau had been chosen to
supervise Russian trade proposals
because a coordinator, was needed
to keep in touch with offers and
suggestions going to the various
departments from many sources.
For several weeks Jesse H.
Jones, chairman of the Recon
struction corporation and other
officials hare been dickering with
the representatives of Amtorg, the
official Soviet commercial agency
in New York, for a transaction by
which Russia would buy cotton
and other products.

While awaiting official notifica

Mayor Is Pleased.
"I was very much pleased with
the news, declared Mayor Doug

been waiting- for. J$dw we can go
ahead and I am certain we can
work out our plans. to give Salem
an improved water supply. 1
Alderman S. A. Hughes, council
utilities committee chairman, was
"somewhat disappointed, that
we're cut down from the amount
applied for, but added. "We're
going ahead some way or other.
We might yet be able to get more
money with Senator McNary's
help."
Spur of the moment suggestions
that the council group in charge
of. water system plans meet im

ing receipt of details of the allot
ment. Alderman Hughes suggest
ed that a special council session
should be held soon, possibly Fri

The city can live up to its state
ment in its application that ac
tual work on the project can be
started within 30 days from the
time the funds are made available,
the city attorney stated. Engin
eering work could be undertaken
at once, giving gradually more
jobs to laborers as the project
progressed, he pointed out.
Division a Puzzle
Eowitz averred the S406.500
grant should give the city oppor
tunity to negotiate successfully
with the Oregon - Washington
Water Service company for its
plant here on a part-cash, part-
bond basis. He was puzzled, how
ever, as to what amount of the
allotment was made specifically
for this purpose. The city's appli
cation called for 1695,000 for pur
cnase of the existing system.
1100,000 for its rehabilitation
and various larger amounts for
construction of a diversion dam
on the Little North Fork of the
Santlam river and the pipe line.
It is reported the Oregon-Wash
ington Water Service company
has put a price of around $950,-
ooo on its property here.

LONDON. Sept. 20. (AP)
The assertion that grave grounds

reichstag building was set afire
last winter byi or on behalf of.
leading personalities in the na
tional socialist (nazi) party was
contained today in the report of
the international legal commission
which investigated the blaze.
The commission, an unofficial
body, announced its findings after
several days' hearings. During this
time the suggestion was advanced
that the nazis themselves set the
fire rather than' the- five commun
ists who will go on trial -tomorrow
at Leipzig, Germany.
LEIPZIG, Germany.. Sept. 20.
(AP) The preparations were
complete tonight for beginning to
morrow the trial of fire men
charged with setting fire- to the
reichstag building last February,
shortly before the election which
strengthened the position of Chan
cellor Adolf Hitler and his nazi
party.
The hearings will be held under
the presidency of Wilhelm Bun
ger, former premier ot Saxony, in
the historic audience . hall where
most of the high treason cases
have been tried in recent years.
These Included the Kapp Putsch
of 19 22 and the Reichswehr off!

made his famous pronouncement
that heads "will roll" upon the
accession of the nazis.

Everywhere the former chief

went likewise. The Hoovers tour

like a rolling snowball, their small

Starr decared that the suspect

oral statement made to him in
confidence In the office of the sec
retary ot state; that he asked and
obtained permission to convey the
information to Chancellor of Edu
cation W. J.. Kerr, and merely re
spected the confidence imposed in
him concerning what was not at
the time a public document.
Starr's statement follows;
. "The audit report in controversy
was submitted to me orally in
-conversation with the secretary of
state's auditors. I saw no report
at that time that had been forma
lated and filed with the secretary
of state. The statements made to
me by the auditors referred to
affairs at the college and I re

was not at liberty further to dis
cuss the matter of the secretary's

made a matter of public record
The chancellor, upon securing the
information that had been given
him, proceeded at once with an
investigation.
"I have no statement to make
concerning the second reason as
signed by the governor.
The governor's second charge
was that under Starr's "leader

sion and discord have prevailed
on the board to an extent that is
proving Inimical to the best In
terests of Oregon's institutions of
higher learning."
