WASHINGTON, May 18- (AP) Tb following explanation of the ad ministration bill to control Industry and provide publlo work was Issued today by Senator Wagner (D.. N. Y.), chairman of the farming committee: "The national recovery bill consists of two principal parts, th first deal ing with Industrial recovery and the second with public works. "The principal and Immediate ob ject of this bill Is to open opportun ities for the employment of several million men and women and thus distribute purchasing power which will be effective In starting again the wheels of Industry. Cooperation Is Aim. "The purpose of title 1 of the bill (dealing with Industrial recovery), Is to secure cooperative action within Industry with a view to eliminating unfair competitive practices and thereby to reduce unemployment, Improve standards of labor and oth erwise to rehabilitate Industry. "The bill authorizes any group or association within a trade or industry to prepare ft code of fair competition which sets forth the standards cov- ring trade and competitive practices within that Industry. Such a code la . without effect until it Is approved by the president, President May Approve. "The president may approve such a code if he finds: "1. That Vie group presenting the code truly represents the trade or In dustry for which It speaks. "a. That It admits freely to mem bership all who are engaged In the same trade or industry. 'S. That the code of rules is fair to competitors, employees and con sumers. "4. That It will not promote mo nopoly. "A. . That It does not oppress or discriminate, against small business enterprises. "In addition the employers submit ting such a code of fair competition must agree that their employes shall have the right to organise and bar gain collectively and that their right to Join a . labor organl ratlon. will not be Interfered with. They must undertake to re duce the hours of labor to that num ber which tne president finds will be j most helpful in increasing employ ment In the industry. Finally they must agree u pay a minimum wage scale and maintain minimum stand ards as determined by Vie president. May Okeli Agreements. "The president is further author ized to enter Into or approve agree menu relating to any trade or Indus try with a view to Improving eondi tlons within that industry snd In. creasing Its power to provide employ. ment. "The Initiative Is left with Indus. try. However, should an Industry be unable or refuse to cooperate, the president may Impose upon It a code of fair competition and in extraordl. nary circumstances license the trade or Industry. "Once a code of fair competition la approved or Issued by the pres. dent, it becomes the standard of fair competition within that trade or In dustry to which It applies, and all ttiose who comply with it are exempt from the provisions of the anti-trust lawa and all those who violate It are subject to legal penalties. "Title II of the bill authorises the president .to formulate a 93,300,000, 000 program of publlo works, federal, state and local. The project to be prosecuted include the construction and repair of highways and public buildings; the elimination of railroad grade crossings, the conservation of natural resources, the construction and publlo regulation or control of low cost housing and slum clearance projects, snd other public projects, Authority In President. "The work may be done directly by vie federal government or may be financed by the federal government by extending loans and grant to states, municipalities and other pub lic bodies and loans to a limited number of private corporations en gaged In the construction of pro tec t devoted to the public use. The bill contemplates single- handed responsibility In the execu tive of the program and the author ity Is there vested entirely in the president. 'To finance this program the bill authorizes the issuance of bonds to be retired by payments Into the sink ing fund out of a special tax provided ror the purpose."

OLD PEOPLE Live Longer at the CONVALESCENT HOME . 153 Granite St., Ashland May 15. 1933 Time and again I am told by my own organization and by others that I penalize myself by quality. Friendly critics protest our putting into the Ford V-8 what they call "twenty-year steel.? They say such quality is not necessary: the publio does not expect it: and that the publio does not know the differenoe anyway. But I know the difference. I know that the car a man sees v is not the oar he drives he drives the car whioh the engineer sees. The oar which is seen, comprises beauty of design, oolor and attractive aooessorles. all desirable, of course. The best evidence that we think so is that they are all found on the Ford V-8. But these are not the oar. The car proper, which is the basis of all the rest, is the type of engine and its reliability; the structure of ohassis and body, ruggedly durable; the long thought and experiment given to safety. faotors; the steady development of comfort, conven ience and economy. These make the oar. A car can be built that will last two or three years. But we have neverbuilt one. We want the basio material of bur car to be as dependable the day it is disoarded as the day it is bought. Ford cars built 15 years ago are still on the road. It oosts more to build a durable oar but two items we do not skimp are cost and consolence. A great many things could "get by" the publio would ' never know the difference. But we would know. The new Ford V-8 is a car that I endorse without any hesitancy. I know what is in it. I trust our whole thirty years reputation with it. It is even better than our previous V-8. It is larger, more rugged and meohanloally a better Job all round. I readily say this in an advertisement because I know the car will back it up. COMMIT SUICIDE SAN FRANCISCO. May 18. (AP) While a crowded courtroom sup pressed its merriment, Mrs. Bessie Pugh, one of the five sisters of the late Dr. Frank Bishop, optometrist, who successfully contested his will, today described seances conducted by the Rev. James J. Dickson, spiritual ist pastor, and his former wife, Ger trude Dickson. Mr. ana Mrs. Dickson are being tried on an Indictment charging them with conspiring to induce Bish op to commit suicide to Join his wife, Louise, beyond the grave. Bishop died by poisoning and a will, subse quently broken by his sisters, left his estate to Mrs. Dickson. Mra. Pugh, on the stand today, de scribed seances at which numerous purported spirits, Including that of Mrs. Bishop, described their existence in a ghostly habitat .termed "Azure land." On one occasion. Mrs. Pugh testi fied, a spirit appeared on a screen, purporting to be that of Mrs. Bishop. ."What did Mra. Bishop's spirit say?" asked the prosecution. 'She said 'Hello, everybody. Every thing is lovely up .here. I am hav ing a good time. There is no pain here.' "Was the voice that of Mrs. Bishop as you knew her voice on earth?" "It was not. The spirit voice waa a high, squeaky, nasal, unpleasant one In marked contrast to Louise's voice on earth.' marchers, led by the city band and battery "E," formed In line the en tire length of Main street. Motion pictures were taken by a Universal news reel representative. As a result of getting persons out for the parade there were record at tendances at Sunday schools and Mother's day church services.
