Cse Mall Tribune want ads on with this effort to organize our American life In accordance with the I new economic facts, or shall we go back to the practices which landed us In this depression?" Fllene told the committee labor unions "have a better understand ing of what la good for business today than our chambers of com merce have." He added that it was President Roosevelt and not the chamber ot commerce of the United States "who has been representing the true in terests of business during the past two years." NRA's failure, Fllene testified, could be attributed definitely to the "failure of business men to change their basic - attitude toward business when this baste economic change had made It necessary." Agitators Next Siep. "If recovery does not come soon," Fllene said, "we may as well get ready for whatever Dr. Townsend. Father Cough 11 n and Huey Long pro pose. Already, these agitators claim upward of thirty million followers, not because the people agree with their arguments, but because the one effective answer to their argu ments has so far been withheld. "The only effective answer then Is economic action and we cannot take this necessary economic action unless we can work under some such device as the NRA." Grocers Add Voice. Retail grocers, 40.000 strong, added their voices to the chorus rising from some quarters of industry in behalf of an extension of NRA. H. C. Peterson, of Chicago, speak ing for the National Association ot Retail Grocers, urged the committee to continue the recovery law for two more years.

Peterson said his Industry's code had been a code of ethics, and that Its abandonment would bring "an era of price cutting so vicious that many grocers would be forced out of business." "Competition." Hoffmsn said, "de generated Into a mad scramble, wherein the manufacturer's adroit ness at human exploitation was of paramount importance. Eagle Like Angel. "The Blue Eagle appeared to us almost like an angel from heaven. In & very short period It bettered the condition of all workers tremen dously. Wagea In some cases wers In creased 300 per cent. The industry ltseir nas shown steady and sub stantial profits since the code went Into effect." Hoffman added that under the code, working hours had been re duced a third, hourly ratea of pay had risen 117 per cent and employ ment had Increased 10 per cent over 1029: He denied the code had Injured small business, asserting It rather had "reduced handicaps under which small business has competed." Hoffman testified that before NRA the cotton garment Industry waa working as high as 55 hours a week and there was "a vlcloua cycle ot wage reducing, which resulted In the payment of mere pittances, 'jome tlmes as little as S3 a week, for ! -edlbly long hours." He said also that 13,000 child laborers had been replaced by adult workers, and that wagea as a whole were only 3 per cent, below 1929 levels.

It all starts with these little plants, called tobacco seedlings. They are grown under cover and transplanted to the open fields in the early spring. Then the warm Southern sunshine begins to get in its good work and as the plants ' grow and ripen the mild ripe leaves are cut and sent to the curing barns. The farmer then takes his tobacco to the auction ware house where it is sold to the highest bid der. All of this takes about a year. The tobaccos for Chesterfield cigarettes are then stored away for two years or more to make them milder and taste better. c ( ) J V 7 ( ra. i ill c all takes time Just about three years but there is no substitute for mild ripe tobacco in, making a good cigarette. That's the reason smokers men and women say that Chesterfields are milder and that Chesterfields taste better.
