He must have atarted at the back of the book, for the first thing aelected was one which looked easy the rc-establlshment of brotherly love between the NRA and the federal trade commission. Those two outfits have been having tt hot and heavy on the Inside about ateel statistics. The trade commission has been demanding Inside facts and figures from the Iron and Steel In stitute. The commission neeas ine data In Its study of the basing point ystem of fixing steel prices. But tne Iron and Steel institute is under tne NBA. It privately obtained the pro tection of the NRA in denying the data to the federal trade commission, leaving the two government bureaus to fight it out. Paul MalJoo MACHINE PLOWS STREETCORNER Portland Traffic Deaths Con tinue to Mount Driver Had Been Drinking Say Poiice High Bail Set PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 19. AP A woman and her child lay dead to day and an automobile driver was held in the county Jail on a man slaughter charge aa Portland's traffic accident fatalities continued to mount at an alarming rate. The man under arrest was William B. Stout, 30, a nurse at the federal transient bureau in Vancouver. Wash. Stout was charged today with In voluntary manslaughter and his ball was set at ?10.000. Police said his automobile plowed Into a group of three persons at a street Interaction last night. They said Stout had been drinking. The dead: Mrs. Richard O. Burk hardt, 35; her daughter. Ebon, nine years old. A sister of Mrs. Burkhardt was injured. Accident Investigators declared that Stout did not atop after the crash, but continued on at high speed, only to ram another car head-on. The driver of this car and Stout were badly cut and bruised. Mrs. Burkhardt and her daughter died this morning. The dcatha Bent the city's fatal accident' toll for the police year to 79. Mr. Richberg took hl sharpest pen In hand and wrote to the federal trade commission. He said. In effect, he thought the commission should desist, that the steel people would use the case to worm out of Its NRA code and implied that the federal trade commission was going outside Its field. He admitted that ho had no Jurisdiction over the federal trade commission, because It la an inde pendent commission. Also he added a sentence suggesting that no talk ing be done about the matter. Of course, there has been no talk ing, except by a few hundred people, and then only In stage whispers, which will be heard around the world. tJ Alao. the commission has decided to stand pat on ita demands, which leavea matters Just where they were before Mr. Richberg started. That will give you a slight Idea of what this co-ordinating Job is like ana how much fun It Is going to be when Mr. Richberg gets around to some of the hard cases. Before It is over Mr. Richberg will use his pen for Jabbing. Instead of writing and then the campaign to mold the tar flung new deal Into a harmonious unit will undoubtedly become a ques tion of the survival of the fittest.
