MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MED FORD. OREGON, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 16, 1933.
PAGE THREE
HOURS OF RETAIL
Purpose to Increase Employ
ment Defeated if Hours
for Trade Reduced Is
Pointed Out in Statement
To clarify wldepread misunder
standing in regard to the number ol
hours retail stores should stay open
under the president's re-employment
agreement, the statement Issued by
National Recovery Administrator
Hugh S. Johnson, was released today
by B. B. Harder, general ol the NRA
drive here.
It reads as follows:
The last clause In section (3) of
the presidential reemployment agree
ment appears In substance In para
graph (b). section (3) of the retail
.nd in section (3). article ).
In the food and grocery distributing
code this clause in the presidential
re-employment agreement reads as
follows:
'And not to reduce the hours of
any store or service operation to
below SS hours In any 1 week,
unlesa auch hours were less than
S3 hours per week before July 1.
1933, and in the latter case not
to reduce such hours at all.'
oinAhiHiTie other provisions, th
president definitely and concisely slg
nifiM that the purpose of this agree-
"1. To Increase employment, that
la, to effect re-employment of those
not working.
3 To assure those already em
ployed and those to be re-employed
that they will receive a reasonable
living wage.
"There can be no misunderstanding
ahnut that nurpose.
"It Is evident that the longer a
store stays open each wee, ana
hrtr number of hours each em
ployee works each week, the greater
' . w.. .h. win be em-
win oe wie uumw,
"It is stated In this agreement that
the hours which any atore Is to atay
open cannot be reduced below 52
hours In any one week If the atore
was open 63 houra or more a week
before the agreement was signed.
ni.t th store with more than two
in..Aa which remain open the
longest are contributing most to carry
out the purpose of the presidential
scrrMmnt.
"And the stores with two or less
employes which keep open only the
minimum number of hours required
are doing most to fulfill their part.
"Many ownera of stores and many
r,t t.h nubile have misinterpreted the
intent of the presidential agreement
and of the provisional retail codes In
this respect. It was on the repre
sentations made by the accredited
committee of the associations sub
scribing to both the retail and the
food and grocery distributing trade
that stores would remain open after
th. asreement had been signed s
nearly as possible as many hours as
before July 1, 1B33. tnai inuae w
r nrnvlalonallv approved.
And further section (8) of the
president's re-employment agreement
requires particular emphasis at this
point. That paragraph reads:
Not to use any subterfuge to
frustrate the spirit and Intent
of this agreement which Is. among
other things, to Increase employ
ment by a universal covenant, to
remove obstructions to commerce,
and to shorten hours (employee
work hours not store hours) and
to raise wages for the shorter
(employee work) week to a living
basis.'
"When employers sign this agree
ment with their president, after read
ing section (8) no one could con
ceivably set aout staggering em
ployee hours, enforcing rest periods,
and increasing the time for lunch
without pay, or either directly or in
directly conspire to defeat the very
purpose of the agreement by mate
rially ahortenlng the number of hours
which the stores had customarily
stayed open.
"That agreement Is a colemn cove
nant. Tid Its purpose Is' explicit.
"The ownevs of the stores and the
customers who buy from those stores
should have but one single purpose,
which Is to carry out this specific
provision which has to do with re
employment through reducing the
number of hours esch employee
works and by keeping the stores open
as long as possible.
"The Insignia of the Blue Eagle
must be withdrawn from those stores
which either collectively or Individu
ally flagrantly attempt to frustrate
the purpose of the presidential re
employment agreement.
"HUOH S. JOHNSON,
"Administrator."

AT AIRPORT BUREAU IS
Many people have complained
about recent weather reports on the
ground that the maximums reported
at the U S weather bureau are too
high and don't reperesent the aver
age temperature in the valley.
Although U. 8. weather bureau sta
tions, are erected under similar con
ditions everywhere In exposed places
but protected from direct rays of the
sun, and in an area of free circulat
ing air, W. J. Hutfiison local U. S.
meteorolgist, frankly admits that
the station at the airport registers
higher than many parts of tihe val
ley, particularly in the nigtier levels.
There is a decided variation, for ex
ample, between the weather station
and the Talent experiment station,
and oven a greater variation further
south, near Ashland. . It la also prob
able that under such a period of hot
weather as the present Medford Is
cooler than the airfield, situated as
It is, practically In the desert. While
Mr. Hutchison will not say the
weather bureau is the hottest place
in the valley, he doesn't deny it Is
one of the hottest places
However, there Is no essential dif
ference between the local station
and the other government stations
throughout the country. In all of
(Viem certain essential requirements
are rigorously observed.
It Is doubtful If any change Is
made :n the Medford station, but the
local chamber of commerce wilt
probably investigate the matter and
be sure that Medford Is not discrim
inated gainst in the matter of
weather reports and advertised as
hotter than It really is.

JONES TRIAL BILL
FOR $1761 ON FILE
AS
The cost bill In the trial of Walter
J. Jones, convicted ballot theft de
fendant, amounting to 8176130 was
filed today, with the county clerk by
the district attorney's office, for col
lection under the Oregon law, provid
ing for payments of costs by convicted
defendants, in criminal actions.
Preparation of the cost bill In the
trial of J. Arthur LaDleu, which will
total slightly over ilOOO, Is under
way.
Jones and LaDleu were the chief
lieutenants of Banks and Fehl, in
their local agitation and are now
serving sentences with them In state
prison.
Banks at Eugene yesterday, througn
his attorneys, filed an objection to
the cost bill filed against him.
Thirteen Items covering expenses for
state alienists, to combat Banks'
claim of "transitory mania," meals
for Jurors, fees for the sheriff's offices
of Lane and Jackson counties, and
mileage for witnesses are contested,
on the grounds they are "not right
fully and legally assessable" to Banks
and his wife who was & Joint defend
ant In the murder charge against
them for the slaying of Constable
George J. Prescott.
Jackson county, as soon as the pre
liminary red tape Is unraveled, will
file a formal claim In the federal
bankruptcy proceedings against
Banks. Numerous labor claims against
Banks have been served In the ac
tion against the former local agi
tator. Steps will also be taken by county
authorities to set aside Earl H. Fehl's
effort to transfer local property to
his wife, the day following his .con
viction. Total costs of Banks' murder trial,
.and the ballot theft cases, are now
figured to come within the 820,000
mark. It was first estimated that
the costs would run between $25,000
and 830,000.
