W ASH rNGTON , Nov. 15. There is
snore than a good suspicion Inside
-certain trade association groups here
that the new
dealers are work
ing - on a. basic
plan for NRA re
vival. A few of the
most sympathetic
Indus tries are
supposed to have
been sounded out
on It. The hope

sponsor the pro
posals at the
Berry conference

That Is, the government may not put
forward the plan officially Itself, but
will have it come from industry.
The basis of the proposal Is sup
posed to be new hour, wage and antl
chiseling price agreements, to be
agreed on voluntarily, but possibly
under federal trade commission sup
ervision. Despite this cleverly planned ap
proach, most inalders suspect the De
cember 0 meeting will be like the
usual International disarmament con
ference. There will be pious speeches,
but no action.
Many more large Industrialists
would like to do what the motors
' Industry did and decline the Berry ln
Tltatlon. They do not dare to. They
re afraid of what may be dMie by
some Industrialists In their same line,
while they are absent.
Consequently, the attendance at
the conference will probably be much
larger than the hopes.
Note The Black 30-hour week bill
r and the O'Mahouey bill for federal
licensing of corporations, have no
chance of passing at the next session
of congress aa matters noiv stand.
However, they may become Increas
ingly powerful clubs In the NRA situ
ation. No president ha ever slowed down
more than President Hooscvelt dur

Martin today vetoed the student fee
rcpcal bill, passed at the legislative
special session, and filed without his
signature the measure which would
permit the city of Salem to Issue,
bonds over its 6 per cent limitation.
The governor signed 30 other meas
ures. The veto of the measure which
would have repealed the $15 compul
sory payment of student fees to high

upon the attorney general's opinion
that the enactment of the law was
unconstltuttlonal since a referendum
on the 1035 act had already been filed
with the secretary of state. ,
Veto Explained
The governor in his brief veto mes

"The effect of the referendum pe

the original act and under existing
authorities this bill, which attempts
to repeal the act, is Ineffective and
unconstitutional since It attempts
to withdraw from the consideration
of the people a matter that Is now
legally before them." Hie referendum
