Springfield people to her home en the Eugene river road Thursday venlng for a sprprlse birthday party la honor of Mr. Rossrasn. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Walker, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Korf, and Mr. and Mrs. F. JJ. Flanery of this city were guests at the affair, as were Mr. nnd Mrs. Alec MeKensie and Mr. and Mrs. Herbert M'elker of Eugene. scribe to the code presented by oth ers of the industry, Johnson said: "It "Is a matter of regret that the industry as represented here doos not include 100 per cent of automo bile manufacturers; because, certain it is, that in the administration of this law nnd the distribution of the Blue Eii4i, no exception can be made in favor of any manufacturer whether his output bo great or small. "We shall execute tins, law lis we find it, .without fear and without favor," In addition to the absence of Forf from the list of manufacturers sup porting the code, Interest in the hear ing centered upon its labor provisions declaring In favor of the open shop. The code provides wages of 40 to 43 cents per hour for factory work ers, depending upon the population of the city In which they work. Mail- mom hours are stipulated as 8 in, any one week with the average not to exceed 85. After setting forth that employes shall have the right to organise and bargain collectively through repres entatives chosen by themselves with out Interference or coercion, the code snys: 'x "Under the foregoing provisions, the. employera in the industry may continue the open shop policy under which the selection, retention and da- ' vnncement of employes will be on the basis of individual merit without re gard to their affiliation or non-nffili- ntlon with any labor or other organ isation." Donald Rlchberg, counsel to the recovery administration, urged the elimination of the "open shop" ref erence from the code, saying it "may be easily construed as the declnratipn of a policy of refusing to comnly with the law." He said the explanation by the man ufacturers gave assurance-that auch was not the case, but he felt It might not be so interpreted generally. He aaid Johnson thought it quite "proper" for the manufacturer to assert a pol icy of retaining and advancing em ployes on a basis of Individual merit regardless of union affiliation, but that the "open ehop" clause should go ont. He explained the national recovery law stipulatea all codes -must contain provision for collective baraainlnir without interference by the employer and said thaat "no power Is given to approve a code with any attempted modification of the law."
