Called 'Hangover1 From Blue
Eagle Days by Member-
Strike Interest Shown
!
Washington, Dec. 15. Wl
Edwin S. Smith, member of the
national labor relations board.
said today that the board had
engaged in "extra-legal" activ
ities of mediation and concilia
tion not provided for in the
Wagner labor act.
He told the house committee
investigating the board and the
act that this work had been
carried on as "what, might be
described as a hangover" from
the NRA days when the old
labor board engaged in media
tion and conciliation services,
immediately aner the new
board was created, he testified,
many cases remained to be dis
posed of "as a matter of tra
dition, . but recently, he said,
that practice had "faded away"
and the board now believes
such activities should be cur
tailed. Documents Filed.

mittee witness while Edmund
M. Toland, committee counsel,
was placing in the records, doc

"Interested" in settlement of a
strike at the Berkshire Knitting
Mills, Reading, Pa., although the
board had not been involved of
ficially. Union Literature.
Much of the matter was union
literature, and Smith said "some
of it" was sent to Louis Kir-
stein, a vice-president of Filene's
store In Boston, where Smith
was once employed as a Der.
sonnel manager.
He said he did not desire to
he "captious or indefinite" but
he could not recall Dositivelv
just which of the union papers
were iorwaraed.
The handbill said:
"Ask your storekeeDer or
merchant where the hosiery he
wishes to sell you, no matter
what its name is, was made."
'Ihe handbill 1 sted 45 hranric

union-made.
Toland began Questioning
Smith by asking his opinion of
me ngni or tne board to enenffp
in conciliation and - ITlPdial inn
activities. After explaining the
carryover from NRA riav
Smith said:
"Tradition"
'They were carried on as a
matter of tradition, and it grad
ually iacied away. It is the
Intent of the board that those
activities should be curtailed."
rlep. Halleck (R-Ind). a com-
mittee member, called attention
to the fact the present board
was operating under the Wag
ner act, rather than under the
invalidated NRA. and sueeested
the mediation and conciliation
activities were "extra-legal."
"Kxtra-legal," Smith rcnlieri
"in the sense that there was no
specific authority to handle
some cases that were handled as
mediation.
Takes a Hand
Halleck inquired whether
Smith was trying to take a hand
in settling the Berkshire strike.
To the extent that the corre
spondence indicates that, that
as so," Smith replied.
He referred to communica
tions previously placed in the
record between a union official
and Smtih, and to Smith's letter
to an official of a Boston depart
ment store suggesting that any
stand "you might adopt" in ref
erence to the strike "would be
listened to with the deepest
respect" by the company.

Too Old To Fall For Trap
Says President Keeping
Eye on Graf Spee Incident
BY PLANE TO KEEP
PERFECT RECORD
Pendleton, Ore.. Dec. 15
if) Theodore Prockett, 17,
-ot: ooy stationed at Camp
ouuaw creeK. 2U miles at rf
here, was happy today but
convinced that hitch-hiking is
quite a sketchy business.
About November 30 he left
tor Brooklyn, N. Y.. via th
inumn route to visit his folks
his leave to expire at noon
today. All went well until he
reached Toledo, Ohio, on his
return trip. There his funds
gave out, his thumb went on
tne bum and he was stranded,
hungry and facing the prospect
of a dishonorable discharge as
one of the boys who went "over
the hill."
I Fund Raised
But Santa was in the-air and
a newspaper reporter told his
friends and relatives of his
plight. They raised a fund of
$125 to pay his way back to
Pendleton, via train and Diane.
The last stage of the triD was
made this morning when he
rode into the round-up city on
the United Air Lines shiD that
maae a landing at 10:30 a. m.
an hour and a half before
his time limit was up.
A CCC truck was on hand
and U. S. Miller, airport man
ager, said, "He high-tailed it
for the truck the minute his
feet hit the ground."
Over long-distance telephone
Lieut. I. K. Davis, commandant
at Squaw Creek, said Prockett
was in camp at noon and "all
is well."
Hyde Park. N. Y., Dec. 15.
UP) President Roosevelt de-1
clined today to comment on Sec
retary Ickes' criticism of Paul ;
V. McNutt as a possible can-1
didate for the Democratic pres
idential nomination.
The president, talking with '
reporters shortly after he ar
rived from Washington, de-l
clared he was too old in polit- j
ical experience to comment on ;
Ickes' statement that liberals
would not support McNutt's
candidacy.
Mr. Roosevelt said the game
was to get people to comment
on this man and that man and
the third man and the fourth
man. He said that by a gradual
process of elimination reporters
would have the whole story.
Then he reiterated he was too
old to fall for that. He said he
might have fallen into such a
trap 25 or 30 years ago.
Watching Graf Spee
The president declined to
comment on the running bat
tle between three British war
ships and the German pocket
battleship Graf Spee off the
coast of Montevideo, Uruguay.
He added, however, he wou'rt
keep in constant telepho. -touch
with the state depaii-
ment
Mr. Roosevelt was asked di
rectly whether he, as a liberal.
agreed with Ickes' views regard- I
ing McJNutt. He replied quickly
that of course there was noth
ing to be said on that. Under
questioning, he then added his
remarks about being too old to
fan for the game of comment- i
ing on this or that candidate.

Miner's Reward
By Russell Mitchell
When I put on my miner's lamp
And climb into the shaft, so
cold,
I wonder if I'm mad to hope
That soon I'll find a pot of gold.
When I ascend to day's bright
sun
Withjiope tomorrow's luck may
bring
The golden "pocket" miners
seek,
I feel I should desert the thing.
To live again among my friends.
To build a home and take a wife.
But when I pan the yellow dust,
I know I'm doomed to dig
through life.
