PAGE FIVE TO SPUR WAGES BIG INDUSTRIES Administration Plans Same : Weapon to Avoid 'Wild- Cat Price Boosting Plea Is Made to Entire Nation WASHINGTON. June 37 (AP) The td ministration wants to mold publio opinion Into a prod tor big Industrie that seem little alow about agreeing on bow they shall Increase wages and purchasing power. And that same weapon will be used to see that these Industries do not stray toward any "wild-cat price lifting" schemes. Hugh 8. Johnson, recovery admin tj lstrator. inaugurated the direct ap peal campaign because he was slight ly ruffled at the fact that the rest of the 10 big Industrie apparently are waiting to see what happens to the cotton textile trade agreement be fore presenting helr own. r. Aid of Nation Needed His thesis In the plea to the people, and to business, was that the program 'cji succeed only if the whole na tion gets behind it with both zeal and determination every man and woman." Already he has received proposed codes of fair competition from around 10 small Industries, but except for cotton textiles the other big ones haven't come through. One reason, he said, was "Ill-Informed conjuct ure" that labor first should organize or that Industry should form com pany unions to cut off labor organi zations. "Both sayings are wrong and very harmful, he summarized. Profiteering Dangerous To forestall possible "peace profit ) earing," he added: "This Is a deadly serious matter this danger of run-away prices. There are still about 12,000,000 unemployed In this country and even those who till have Jobs are largely on much reduced incomes. ! "Any wild-cat price lifting will have its first bearing directly on the very creature necessities of these unfor-i u nates their means to keep out hunger, thirst and cold. This admin-1 lstratlon will not stand for that and we do not expect to have any trouble j about it." I Even as he made hi speech, 40 j leading business men were 'getting ready tor their meeting with Secre tary Roper to discuss ways and means of stabilizing Industry In the future that the depression and boom jumps will be smoothed out. Today cotton textile manufacturers code of fair competition will be brought up for public hearings. j Cotton Plans Bared Although other Industries might! put their plans In sooner, there were Indications that the outcome of the hearings and action by Johnson and President Roosevelt on the code would influence future agreements. I There was, for Instance, this point to be settled: The cotton textile trade proposed a 40-hour work week with ! minimum wages $11 a week In the North and aio In the South. In his speech, Johnson conceded there should he no inflexible rule but asserted: "In a general way and without com mitment we can say for the. benefit of smaller employers everywhere that, under present conditions, and as far as the lowest paid class workers are concerned, an average of about 32 hours a week at not less than 45 cents an hour would do this Job." More than 7,000 Japanese partici pated In a popularity contest to de cide the design of a new nickel coin. 11 JSR i B YOUNG ROCKEFELLER STARTS WORK Winthrop Rockefeller (center), fourth ton of John D. Rockefellei r It shown shaking hand, with guard of hi. father's plant at Bayonne, N. Y, when he went to work In the company's personnel department (Associated Press Photo) PORTLAND, Ore., June 37. (AP) The Journal said today some large lumber mills In the Pacific northwest are refusing to confirm orders, some of them of considerable size, In the hope that by delaying they may profit by anticipated price Increases. The paper observes that "this Is contrary to reports being sent out by some lumbermen's organizations." "Further substantial gains are re ported In all branches of the lumber Industry," the article ssld. "This In cludes logging, mill output, orders snd logging supplies, and all other lines connected with the lumber trade. . . . Prices during this pickup have ad vanced from S3 to $4 and In some cases $10 a thousand. Many lumber men predict higher prices within a short time as orders sre piling up so fast mills cannot aupply the demand. "The demand In the logging sup ply business has Jumped over 80 per cent above the past two years, sccord- lng to local houses. They are expect ing a much grestcr gain In demand as lumber activity Increases, Inas much as many mills and logging camps are using old equipment until financial returns make It possible to buy new materials." LCLOSI WASHINGTON. June 27. (AP) A modification of previous plans to close a number of Indian schools, so they will be kept open but with their activities sharply curtailed In the interest of economy, was decided upon today by the Indian bureau. Bureau officials estimated 1,075 pupils would be removed from six boarding schools, to have approxi mately (635,000. The schools affected Include Sa lem, Oregon, TOMORROW WEDNESDAY Will Be LETTER 'DAY Double ON EVERY CASH PURCHASE THROUGHOUT THIS BIG STORE AT In a booth at hall of science at the World's Fair is one of the wonders of the present age a refrigerating mechanism that enables the layman to see Just w.hat la happening In the interior or nis electric regngerator what freezes the ice cubes and what keeps the temperature of the cabinet at the right point for preserving food and health, which la dependent upon good food. This particular refrigerating unit la the only -one in the hall of science. It was chosen by the fair for the sole reason that It Is the only refrigerat ing unit in the world suited to re vealing its "Inwards" to an amazed public. This unit, an Integral part of each Grunow electric refrigerator, manufactured by the Grunow Corp oration of Chicago, operates at the World's Fair partly under glass. Ac cording to Information received by Palmer Muslo and Electric Store, lo cal Orunow dealers. Crowds are watching It spellbound, learning, many of them, for the first time that the electricity itself which operates the mechanism of a refrigerator, has little or nothing to do with the ac tual maintenance of - the cold tem perature. "Every electric refrigerator con tains some kind of gas which . re' moves the heat first, and then Is squeeezed to become a liquid again and starts Its cycle of heat removal all over again. In most electric re frigerators this gas operates under pressure and therefore it would be dangerous, and impossible to have It circulating through glass tubing. "In the Orunow super-safe electric refrigerator the refrigerant 'Carrono' is a liquid under most conditions. It can be .handled In open palls like water, In fact, it looks like water. It does not operate under pressure but under vacuum. Therefore, there Is no danger of bursting equipment."

ALLEV SMITH. United Press Staff Correspondent. HOBOKEN. K. J., June 37. (UP) Prof. Oustave Meyer, the eminent seer of Hoboken, performed an intricate operation today by "erecting a chart of the heavens" in order to find out what Is going to happen In America during the summer. His discoveries are not very encouraging. Many of our most prominent citi zens. Including President Roosevelt, had best watch their step during the next three months. Furthermore, ac cording to the stars, cows are going to have trouble with their hind feet. And, in the words of Professor Meyer, "great prairie flrea are Indicated, es pecially so In the south, and south west, hence precautions should be taken.' Hell to Pay Predicted.

There will be hell to pay, my friend." 1 Professor Meyer finds the stars very Indignant about prohibition. He sees thorough and complete repeal to wlndwsrd, and he summed up the matter In this fashion: I find that outright repesl of pro hlbltion will sweep the country like a tidal wave, or prairie fire, and be fore the close of this year prohibition will become a thing of the past, and we will return to pre-war conditions, success, normalcy and prosperity again."
