tlclans know, that la the Ideal time
to put things over.
This adjournment season Is no ex
ception. The Democratic leaders, the
Republicans and the lobbyists are
engaged In their monkey business
about as energetically as usual.
The Democrats have done their
best Job In the house. They have
tied It up so that they can pass
nearly any bill with 80 minutes- de.
bate.
They showed what they could do
on the relief bill. That appropri
ates 1, 172,000.000 In cash for Presi
dent Roosevelt's relief agencies. No
one could object to that amount. It
was In the budget. But Included In
the bill was a vague authorization
uermlttlng the president to take
whatever money Is paid Into the RFC
(probably four or five billions) and
spend It any way he sees fit. Only
40 minutes' debate was allowed. Fully
half the membership knew little or
nothing about what the bill con
tained. No one seemed to care very much.
The Idea was to give Mr. Roosevelt
all the money lying around loose and
let him take care of any situation
arising during the next six mnths.
Everyone realized Mr. Roosevelt
does not Intend to spend all the mon
ey, but he wanted the authorization,
Just In case.
Such, bludgeoning tactics do not
work in the senate. More deception
and steslth Is required there. Both
were practiced quite effectively on
the tariff bill.
The opposition was lulled Into a
sense of false security by frequent
delays and Indefinite promises to
consider favorably certain amend
ments, such as the Johnson amend
ment, exempting agricultural prod
ucts. A simple example Is what happened
to the amendment exempting lum
ber, coal, oil and copper tariffs. Dem
ocratic Tariff Leader Harrison had
promised he would propose such an
amendment. He had kept his prom
ments offered by such leaders are
normally accepted. Not so In this
ease.
Senator Ashurst arose In an out
raged wrath so ferocious that it could
not have come upon him auddenly.
In fact, several of his comrades sug
gested such a beautiful display could
only be effected by prearrangement.
At any rate, Harrison withdrew the
amendment. He had keut his prom
ise to introduce It. Those who want
ed the amendment, and who had
given In on other things to get It,
found themselves suddenly out In the
cold.
The only sense to such methods of
legislating Is that they can hardly be
avoided in a closing congressional J
session. If you do not do them,!
your opponents will.
If the administration did not tie
up the house, the house would prob -
ably tie un the administration. Also,
If the Democrats did not tie up the
tariff opposition, they would have
had their bill loaded down with op
prwtlon amendments.
Politics is no Sunday school picnic.
The Inside on Treasury Secretary
Morgenthau'a unexpected financing
Is that he wanted to get all the sum
mer operatlona out of the way In one
lump. Mr. Morgenthau'a official whis
perers say there will be no more gov
ernment financing until September.
The Interest rates offered were
slightly lower than the market ex
perts expected. There will probably
be no criticism In congress sbout It
this time.

GOES INTO EFFECT
AT TOUCH OF PEN
WASHINGTON, June 7. (AP)
President Roosevelt, at sharp noon
today, placed hia signature on the
corporate bankruptcy bill designed to
facilitate the release of distressed
companies from the hands of recelv-
s.
The White House made clear that
the bill would be signed Just when
the clock showed 13 so that appli
cants for its benefits could get off
to an even start, with no preference
for those "in the know."
The act binds all creditors to a
court-approved reorganization plan
to which holders of two-thirds of the
total amount of claims have agreed.
A petition for reorganization may
be filed by any creditor or stock
holder if it has been approved by
holders of 35 per cent In amount of
each class of claims and 10 per cent
of the total.
If the company Is not actually In
solvent but merely unable to meet
maturing debt, shareholders repre-
senting 10 per cent of each class of
stock and 5 per cent of the total
must agree to such petition.
A debtor company may file the pe
tition without such approval,
Favorable court action on a com
position plan must be accompanied
by written agreement by the hold
ers of two-thirds of the total claims.
If the company Is not held actually
Insolvent, approval by stockholders
representing majority holdings also
Is required.
Throughout the country there are
situations where holders of large
amounts of claims have agreed to
plans of settlement, but where action
hss been held up by minority cred
itors' objections.
Heretofore, It has been necessary
for bondholders' committees to go
through foreclosure proceedings which
required cash payment for the Inter
est of dissenters. Even though a
company's assets were bid In at a
low figure, It has frequently been dif
ficult to arrange for this financing.

fFIXINR OF PRICES
New Plan Also Modifies!
Bases for Price Sections
in All Codes Action
Follows Long Studies
By JAMES COPE. I
WASHINGTON. June 7. (AP)
The NRA committed itself today
against all price fixing in codes, ex
cept In clear-cut emergencies.
The new policy also sharply modi
fies the bases for price sections in
all codes, negotiation instead of com
pulsion to be used to get coded in
dustries to revise such sections on
the revised bases.
Pronouncement by the recovery ad
ministration on the controverted pric
ing question, followed months of study.
It will govern all future codes, and
Industries already coded are to be
approached at once with the request
for voluntary amendments to con
form with the new policy.
The purpose is to obviate destruc
tive price cutting while reducing to
a minimum opportunities for arti
ficial maintenance of high prices, and
similar developmenta which have
caused complaint.
The arrangement will permit open
price provisions in codes where de
sired by an industry, but on the con
dition that prices be reported to a
confidential disinterested agency for
distribution to all members of the
industry and customers willing to
pay for the service.
Such posted price may not be re
vised upward within 48 hours, but
may be reduced without time limit.
The prices posted will represent actual
transactions or offers and there win
be no waiting period during which
competitors may make arrangement
for a uniform price.
The , new,,, pojiry also, encouragea
adoption by Industries of model cost
finding and accounting provisions,
but expressly provides that no ac
counting methods may be forced on
any company by the code authority
or other firms.

PACIFIC FLIGHT
In hla first visit to Oregon, Col,
Arthur C, Qoebel, famous aviator,
better known aa "Art" Goeble, la a
Medford visitor today, Induced by
the prcvalllug'splrtt of celebration to
take a day off from an auto trip
from Los Angelea to Canada and at
tend a part of Med ford's Diamond
Jubilee celebration.
The famoua flier, who aeven years
ago flew 3437 miles across the open
Pacific in hla famous flight from
Los Angelea to the Hawaiian Islands,
winning by hla record of 20 hours
and aeven minutes the Dole race, de-
clarea this to be one of ' the moat
pleasant trips he haa ever made. He
la accompanied by hla mother, Mrs,
Emma Cloebcl, and her school girl
cbum of Texas, Mrs. Jamie Hubble.
"It la more enjoyable by auto,'
was the aviator's reply when asked
why he did not come by plane. ,He
plana to be away from Los Ange'les,
where he haa resided for 14 years
and never made a trip north, al
though he haa been In practically
every part of the world, for about
two woeks, and will go through, to
Canada with Medford aa the only
stop, "Wa decided to stay and tee
what we could," said Colonel Qoebel,
"when we noticed an the decorations
and enthusiasm."
Colonel Qoebel haa been In the
army IB years. He has an Interesting
record, Including the first non-stop
flight from Los Angeles to New York,
made August 18 and 30, 1038, in 18
houra and 68 minutes, In 103D the
aviator won the International race
from Mexico to Kansas City, when
he, as tha only American entrant,
fought through a atorm which turned
all the others back, and flew totally
blind for 34 houra to the first stop,
Tamplco,
He haa attended and won most of
the Paclfio coast races and stunt
contests, la test pilot for the Doug
las Aircraft Co., and has spent six
years doing stunt flying for motion
plcturos.
When Colonel Ooebol returnst from
his auto tour of Oregon, Washington
and many parts of Canada, he will
leave for the eaat on July 1, for a
akyrldlng tour of 17 states, Including
some 000 towns and cities, where he
will give radio talks In the Interest of
the Phillips Petroleum Co.
When asked If he enjoyed the pag
eant at the fair grounda, Colonel
Ooeble said I "It waa a grand affair.
Both my mother and Mrs. Hubble
agreed with me that It alone was
worth the trip. As for the weather,"
continued the tall, bronwd aviator.
"I rater to rain, because In the war
It waa our main defense agalnat the
Germans."
