PORTLAND, July 27-(V

main capitol building, received
immediate developments planned
.by the - capitol reconstruction
commission.
The Portland firm must com
plete plans and specifications
satisfactory to the public works
administration by November 1.
The commission authorized a
fee amounting to' 6 per cent of
the- total cost, less about $900
already paid Whitehouse &
Church for early plans submitted
for a library building. The
terms instructed the architects
to complete . an arrangement
whereby Trowbridge, Livingston
and Francis Keally, Associate, of
New Fork will serve as consul
tants. The commission held it ad
visable to retain the winners, of
the competition for the main
building in' this capacity to as-'
sure uniformity of exterior de
sign in the capitol group.
The architects will go to work
immediately upon preliminary
sketches for a single building to
cost around $600,000 to $700,
000. It will include office space
but the plans will be drawn so
the space can be : re-diverted to
library uses when other capitol
buildings are erected.
The commission did not deter
mine what block adjoining the
etatehouse will be used for 'the
library. T. Harry Banfield of
Portland gained authority from
the commission for the purchase
of the Kay property and other
key sections in that block.
Selection of Whitehouse
Church came after long discus
sion leading to the rejection of an
offer from four other Portland
firms. Hollis Johnston, speaking
for his own firm as well as Roi
Morin, Herman Brookman and
Lawrence, Holf ord and Allyn, said
his associates were well equipped
to complete plans by November 1
and give the commission a basis
for the formal application for a
1450,000 grant, j
"We are able to supply the 300
man weeks necessary to complete
the drawings," he said. MWe feel
-each practicing architect may ap
ply for the work, i We are estab
lished firms and we feel these
government projects should' be
spread around."
Johnson said the firms, pre
pared to draw up a partnership
agreement, would design "either
or both buildings' and follow the
general scheme established in. the
etatehouse plans."!

Labor Relations Board Fair
Roosevelt Replies to Critic
WASHINGTON, July 27.-P)-President
Roosevelt defended to
day his national labor relations
board, which has been charged
with leftism and bias in favor of
unions.
; He asserted at a press confer
ence that the board has been fair
to both capital and labor.
Charges that the board Is con
spiring with communist Influences
to destroy southern industries
were made yesterday by .Repre
sentative Rankin (D-Mlss).
Previously Sen. Nye (R-IndX
had declared that the board la so
biased in favor of John L. Lewis'
committee for industrial organiza
tion "that. the average man re
gards It as an addunct." '
Hugh L. Johnson, the former
national .recovery administrator,
contended that the board is a one
sided "pressure" gToup unsuited
for its qnasi-judicial work.
But Mr. Roosevelt .said today
that the board baa also been ac
cused of being biased in favor
of management. The president's
thesis was that since the criti

Ardent Roosevelt Group
Seeking Passage of
Leader's Agenda
Substitute Court Bill s
Drafting Completed;
Others Scanned
WASHINGTON, July 21-(JP)-
A; group of first-term senate dem
ocrats, all ardent supporters of
President Roosevelt, stepped into
the adjournment situation tonight
wih a meeting to decide what leg
islation they wish enacted before
the session ends.
The young democratic group
supported President Roosevelt's
defeated proposal to reorganize
the supreme court and also
backed Senator Barkley in his
close contest for the democratic
leadership, on the ground he was
Mr. Roosevelt's choice for the
post.
Individually its members have
declared they favor going ahead
with the entire Roosevelt legis
lative program before adjourn
ment. Legislation which the
president has said he would like
to see enacted this year includes
bills on wage and hour regula
tion, government reorganization,
bousing aid, and Secretary Wal
lace's proposal for an "ever-normal
granary."
j This afternoon the senate be
gan debate on the Black-Connery
wage hour bill, designed to keep
wages up to at least 40 cents an
hour and hours down to at least
40 a week in industries operat
ing in Interstate commerce.
The senate judiciary committee
spent the day completing a sub
stitute for the administration's
court reorganization bill, itself no
longer an obstacle to adjournment
since administration leaders
agreed to abandon sections deal
ing with the supreme court.
The committee also approved a
measure, urged by Senators Bor
ah; (R-Ida) and Wheeler (D
Mpnt), to limit the discretion of
the courts and the size of attor
ney's fees in bankruptcy cases.
The house became involved,
meanwhile, in a partisan discus
sion of one point in the president's
government reorganization propo
sal his request for six more sec
retaries to act as liaison men with
the departments.
Picket Convicted,
jWest Salem Case
;A six-man recorder's jury yes
terday afternoon returned a ver
dict of guilty against Elmer Reede,
Salem Building Trades council
picket who was arrested by West
Salem police last Friday on a
charge of displaying a sign on a
street without the city council's
permission. R. E. Pattison, West
Salem recorder and municipal
judge, ordered Reede to pay a
15 fine and J9 costs.
Counsel for Reede, brought in
from Eugene by the teamsters'
union, announced at the close
of the four hours of trial pro
ceedings that an effort would be
made to have the Polk county
circuit court review the case. Be
cause of the small size of the
fine, a direct appeal is not per
mitted. Notice of appeal by re
view was filed with Justice Pat
tison. The unions have not resumed
direct picketing of the Beutler
Quistad lumber yard, within the
West Salem boundary, v where
Reede was arrested, but their
pickets are stationed across Wal
lace road in front of the Salem
Box company plant.

Call Hearings
On Farm Bill;
Hopes Scanty
Prospects for Action at
This Session Slim Is
Chairman's View
Grange and Others Seek
Delay to Later Term
and "Better Bill"
WASHINGTON, July 27.-(JP)-The
house agriculture committee
ordered 11th hour executive hear
ings on general farm legislation
today, but its chairman asserted
prospects are "not especially
bright" for enactment of a new
farm law this year.
Chairman Jones (D-Tex) an
nounced the committee's decision
after a conference with national
farm organization leaders, who
expressed widely varying views.
Edward A. O'Neal, president of
the American farm bureau fed
eration, issued a statement that
his group .would not retreat from
its demand for immediate enact
ment of a bill combining an "ever
normal" granary with crop con
trol machinery employing mar
keting quotas and penalty taxes.
The national grange opposed
O'Neal, joining others in recom
mending the whole question be
held over until next session.
Fred Brenchman, grange repre
sentative, said he preferred a
bill by Jones for voluntary crop
control and the granary.
"Because of the. divergent
views and prospects for early
adjournment, the chances for a
bill this session are not espe
cially bright," the chairman-said,
adding, however, that if ad
journment were delayed for a
month the committee might be
able to send a measure to the
house Hdor. The committee's
study, he said, will cover all
proposals now before the house
and may tie in with the senate
agriculture committee's regional
hearings this fall.

MADRID, July 27-i?)-Insur-gent
troops hammered hard at
government lines west of Madrid
again today, but the government

until a list of questions are sub

TIENTSIN, July 28-(Wednes-day)-(;P)-The
Japanese high com
mand announced today its ad
vance guard had captured Nan
yuan barracks, south of Peiping,
after desperate fighting in which
the Chinese 29th army was driv
en, back on the walls of the an
cient city.
The Japanese army communi
que said Its victorious troops en
tered the stronghold at 11:39 a.
m. (10:30 p. m. Tuesday, EST)
and the defeated Chinese of the
37th division were retreating to .
the northwest toward Peiping.
The main body of the Japanese
army was reported executing a
wide flanking movement to est
off the Chinese retreat.
The Japanese infantry attack
was supported by squadrons of
bombers whose repeated attacks
inflicted heavy casualties.
Forty-five Japanese warplanes,
including heavy bombers, reared
from Tientsin airfields at dawn
today to support a major Japan
ese offensive against Chinese bar
racks guarding Peiping.
Troops moved to encircle Pei

that it was taking "free action"
to force withdrawal of Chisese
troops from Peiping and neigh

the warning as a virtual declara

Japanese troops were pushing
from Fengtai, along with tb
