Plight of the Railroad Executives CUT VCXJR WASHINGTON NEWS BEHIND THE NEWS a a a a The Inside Story From The Capital a a a Br Ht L MALLOX (Copyright. 111. by Paul Mallon) Summer Theatre WASHINGTON, Aug. 1 Madam Parkins nearly rained the bis vnt la the steel code. It bsd beea carefully rehearsed backstage for the maximum theatrical effect. No one waa supposed to know that the eteel eon: pan.ee were abandoning the open shop section ot their coda. It was to be sprang spontaneous? at th opening of the hearing. General Johnson was supposed to say (sternly I the open shop provision could not stsnd. because it modifies th law of congress. Thea Lamont was to cblme la (meekly) tor the steel people sad agree. The steel Institute was to meet oa th state and give la (with feeling). They all acted out their parts perfectly no on missed a cu. Th iterance, meekness and grimacing wer all well done. But somehow or another th scene fell flat. No on applauded. Some of Johnson' drama makers Investigated. They foand that Madame Perkina had pre pared a brilliant speech oa the tel labor subject two days be fore. She sent advance mimeo graphed copies around to the Washington newspaper offices about 12 hours before th bear ing waa scheduled. In It she congratulated th steel crowd for abandoning the opea shop provision. That set the town agog. John son. Lamont and a hundred oth- era wer routed out of bed by eager newsmen asking If It was ship. They managed to keep anyone from publishing the story, but Lhejr could cot k?p It from being whispered aroand. The molt was that nearly everyone knew tha plot of tha drama la advance. It waa about aa thrilling aa sitting through a movie tha second time. Punch Johnson Is not only aa able actor. He is a fighter as well. Testimony to that effect Is of fered privstely by a certain lum berman. H. and Johnson had words during the lumber code hearing. It ended with Johnson calling his adversary a liar. As usual Johnson was right. The lumberman found h had made aa error. Next day h told a friend: "This fellow Johnson is mors like John U Sullivan than any man 1 ever saw, H caa hit from a standing, sitting, back ward or front position. And Vtr Um.? " "iU Jom " xnocsout. . . who waa floored was well knows manufsc- head ot a snt him her. to tak Johnson idown a peg. He waa supposed w joanK)I to take th code snd Jump la th Potomac Johnson heard th advlc . V,- Jl.!.. Then h started to ar- " "' , , . , I am not only going to get crjSfM oot ot ,oar pp,,,, bat i am going to mak you my tight hand man." for ,eow1 J?f' Jhn. son offic. h. promised to leav. These things will give yoa s rorcubaieiy am csucu .'.uu son's ecretsry. Instead of John son. He told the secretary that the general would have to stop I appointing republicans around there. He grew angry ana saia he personally donbted whether Johnson wss a democrat. He was going to take tbe matter up with tr. Roosevelt, th. supreme court and almost every on. Johnson's secretary uses just aa strong language aa h does. He retaliated In kind, saying: "Don't talk about General Job i. on to me. If yoa bare anythina; to aay arainH him, I'll make an appointment for you and yoa can aay It to hi face." The congressman calmed down. ex-TEMr i ac we 6 with vcaj He apologised for calling Joha soa a republican. The upshot of It was. he aad tha secretary went out for aa lea cream aoda or something equally palatable. e Those close to Johnson bellev th surfsce succms ot th high wage drive Is now assured. Thsy count oa the concessions he made quietly la the past few days. One permits employers to work oat their owa adjustments ot salaries above S3& a week. Aa other give retailers th t hour week. Th steel code adjustment also was an important strategic coup. This does not mean Johnson Is oat of th woods. There will be a crisis occurring from tlm to time. The arguing over da ta lis will never end. At any time they may meet important reverse la the courts. ess The psychological success Is only half the battle. The big question Is whether It will bring sufficient results la increased purchasing power. The existing situation strong ly Indicates th results will be only a fraction of what la hoped for. Other atlmulatire efforts will be necessary. That dollar revaluation. Heat Yarn The recent Idea that th ad ministration would not inflate cam about In a peculiar way. A man who (peaks for the ad ministration was asked about the prospects ot inflation Bow. He replied: "Oh, that Is on ot those July stories." Someone pointed out to him there wer. then only three more days ia July. He laughed. The group concluded .'f0 ,h,t ther 01 no tn- iiation. Wall Streetert heard about ft and took lt seriously. Tbey aay that ia why stocks sold off Sat urday and Monday. Th fart Is there la not a ingle brain trustee who does not ssy prirately that inflation la coming as soon aa tb. N. R. A. gets under full sail. It Is not to be the kind of Inflation where you grind out paper money. In fact you could call It stabilisa tion of currency Instead of Infla tion because that is what reval uation of th dollar really is. Also we are having Inflation now to the extent ot the public works program aad .the unbal anced budget. The chances ar fully ten to on that you will get a financial re-adjustment to boost commodity prl-es within 0 days no mat ter what nam you call It.
