WASHINGTON, June 10. The Im
portant thing behind President Roose
velt's current reorganisation of NRA Is
not the superfi
cial dismantling
proposed., but the
-men he has chos
en to do It.
Those who will
conduct the au
topsy and rattle
the skeleton 'of
the blue eagle
are distinctly
more conservative
than any group
which had any
thing to do with
PAIL MAI.LUN
the bird when it lived. They are not
exactly reactionaries, but neither are
they Richbergs or Johnsons.
It is apparent to all NRA Insiders
that anything to be worked out of the
existing situation in the way of fu
ture business co-operative action will
be more moderately conceived than
the last attempt.
You can see that by calling the roll
of the coroners on the dismantling
board. Of course, everyone knows
that Chairman O'Neill Is a New York
banker. He is rated In NRA as a
good man. level headed. He has been
In charge of personnel and will de
cide who Is to be fired. You know
what that means.
His chief aide la Prentiss Coonley.
a Connecticut manufacturer, and said
to be of a Republican family. Leon
Marshall, in charge of the review di
vision, was a signer of the famous
Brookings report which took the NRA
apart in detail. Also he spoke caus
tically about NRA before the U. S.
Chamber of Commerce. Major George
Berry, labor representative, is a right
wing laborlte, not to be compared
with Sidney Hillman or John Lewis.
These are the men who will run
whatever show there is, and you may
be sure they will hew to the letter of
the new supreme court law.
The supplementary advisory com
mittee ia recognized backstage as mere
liberal window dressing. All on it
have other more important interests
which undoubtedly will keep them
from doing much advising. There are
three strong liberals (Messrs. Phil
Murray, Walton Hamilton and Wil
liam Green) , plus Charles Edison.
