Member Audit Bureau Clreulatioa Two Sides to tha Lumbar Cod. tjk. nnnnontlanabla and obvl1 Ton. purpose ot the national recorary coda haa been to In crease m, areata employment and itlmnlata buelneaa. But If one tlrm baa the good fortune to enjoy buelneaa exceeding lte asso ciates in tha tame Industry, It ap pears aa though the KRA code would enforce a levelling muu ence. This Is the situation ot the Coos Bay Lumbar company, a concern which haa expressed definite ob jections In accepting the produc tion control section of the lumber code. Tha company b, said It ia necessary tor it to conduct op erations ot a monthly basis ot 1(0 hours, to comparison to the 11 0-hour limit ordered by the West Coast association. The difficulty, acoordlng to the description offered us in press re port la acute. The Coos Bay tlrm was given special permission to operate on a basis of 160 hours In September, providing the Increas ed allotment would be deducted from operations In October and November. The firm la unwill ing to comply. The objective ot this allotment . plan was to control the output with the view to prevent over production, and divide the busi ness more equally among com petitive companies. But here is an opportunity for the Coos Bay company, probably losing money in the last few years, just like any other lumber firm, to operate briefly with In creased capacity. Enforcement ot the general provliiona In the code may mean loss of employ ment In tha coastal district. The firm hst abided by all oth er sections ot the code. Even be fore the code was adopted It was operating on a 30-hour week in lte mill and a 36-hour basis in Its camps, and paying a minimum wage scale ot fifty cants aa hour. Tbe wage scale minimum was considerably higher than the one advanced in the code. The situation offers one ot tbe blind walls ot the KRA. On one hand It would ba difficult to con demn any company when it la possible to provide higher wages and mora employment. Yet, on tbe other hand, there la some thing to say for upsetting the con trol clause and perhaps centering the production without regard for tbe much-needed Influence of reg ulated distribution. Klamath's Farm Leaders of tha Future. THE climax ot a year's work with head and hand will be presented this week end at the first annual Four-H club fair. There young men and women of the Klamath country, those wbo Will rule a great Industry in tbe future, will tell the world what they hare learned. There la something mors sig nificant In this fair than the ex hibitions of stock, produce and domestic science. It describes the Interest in an Industry which tnay one day take undisputed Priority in this country. Leaders of the country club af fairs hare shown these boys snd girls that rule-of-tbumb methods re no longer pertinent to agri culture and Its complimentary en terprises. Science and study and the application of both, the young man and young woman haa been taught, la the only way to pros perity In farming. , Increased Interest and the ac complishment of assigned and di rected projects show the quality Of the Four-H club work. The (air deserves the aupport and at-1 tendance of all persona to tha county, for this Is where the eco nomic vslua ot training will be displayed. Promoting Child Health After Depression. IT IS encouraging to read that Labor Secretary Frances Per kins la undertaking to tackle tha problem ot restoring the health ot children who have suffered by the depression. Flgurei preeented to Mia Per kins Indicate that no lass than one-fifth ot all tha children to tbe country are now showing signs ot under-nourlsbment, lack ot prop er medical car and Inadequate housing. That statement speaks for itself and needg no comment. Now Miss Perkins has called a meeting of child health leaders, to convene In Washington on Oc tober , nnder tbe auspices ot the children's bureau. To say that Ibis conference will have plenty ot work to do la to put It very mildly. It will hare to find a way to meet one of the most distressing situations Imag inable. The whole country will wish It all kinds ot success. The Graf Zeppelin Leeds tha Way.

WASHINGTON Newa Behind tha New e The Inside Story From The Capital e By PAIL MALLON Copyright, I'll, by Paul Mallou WASHINGTON, Sept. 11 Some extra fancy inside wire pulling la being dona by Wall Street to squelch the senate stork market Investigation. Several ot the biggest men In the street are annoyed about what will coma out II the In quiry resumes, aa scheduled, In October. It seems that Prose cutor Pecora has struck pay dirt In every sense ot tha word. Tha Wall Streewrt argue that further persecution of them will cause business disturbances. They think It will Interfere with tbe recovery progrem. Tbey may be right about that. At least they have convinced four conservative administration officials close to Mr. Roosevelt that they are rlgtru These four are now supposed to be exerting pressure on the president to call his dogs off. The one thing essential to such a maneuver is secrecy. Un fortunately, a certain member ot the senate Investigating com mittee haa heard about the mat ter. He knows the names of tha parties involved. He has the constitutional Immunity necessary tor calling names out In public and Is threatening to do so. One thing deters him. Chair man Fletcher of the Investigat ing committee baa summoned a meeting for October I. This msetlng Is supposed to determine the policy of the committee as to the future ot the luqulry. It the committee decides to pursue the Inquiry, nothing will be said. It it calls a halt, fur will fly. PROGRKSS The mere tact that tha com mittee is going to talk policy shows how far tbe Wall Streeters have been able to get. When the Inquiry recessed several months ago, it announced it would continue October I. Pecora went to New York to dig up evidence and has spent the summer at It. Now that he has the evidence, the committee is going to meet to determine whether It should proceed. e e e The truth seems to be that no one except Mr. Roosevelt can kill the inquiry and he will notice pulling and pressure some times work in reverse on him. Further public frying ot Wall Streeters may not accomplish any coastructive purpose, but It can hardly be stopped half way. The Investigators have tbe bear by tha tail and cannot let go now. Mr. Roosevelt probably will tell the committee that pri vately If not publicly. . . EVIDENCE Advance hints about Mr. Pa cora's new evidence Indicates the last half of tbe show will be better than tbe first halt, even it J. P. Morgan and the midget are missing. The star may be a former bank board chairman. It seems that he developed some novel financing methods through a family corporation he organized for financial drainage purposes. Since bla retirement be bas been receiving a atupendous annuity from tbe bank, much larger than Samuel Insull received when he sought solitude in Greece. Also Richard Whitney, presi dent ot the New York stock ex cbsnge, probably will be re called. He thought the com mittee was through with him, but It may want more details about operations ot the ex change. Mr. Morgsn may not be dis turbed but bis associates in Wall Street's largest bouse will be needed. The question of going into the Morgan books is still hanging fire. Then there Is a new list of politicians wbo were favored with bargain stocks below mar ket prices. It will be s bigger and better list than any of those which have gone before. At least this is tbe advance notice wbtch haa reached those near the top. see MARKET Some committee members have further big things In mind. Tbey want to make public the books of specialists. That will cause a shudder down the spine of every market man. A specialist's book Is the sanctum sanctorum of the stock market. In It are all tbe secrets about specific stocks. Publication of them would leave Wall Btreeters nothing pri vate except their own souls and the committee may take that angle op later. e e FAME Senator Borah nsed to be the bfggest American name to Euro peans. Anything be said or did was more important than the actions of the president. Ills speeches were reported abroad more fully than they were here. However, times have changed. Recently a news agency re ceived the following cablegram from Its European headquarters! "Lay oft Borah Interviews. Name carries no weight any more." Probably It ia tbe Roosevelt Influence. War debts are no longer re garded as an Important subject either here or abroad. The In ner attitude is that It Is futils to talk about them now. The coming talks with the British representative will be just going through., the motions of diplomatic negotiations, with pessimism deep on both sides, Other nations will bang back to see what the British do. This administration will drop the matter rather than take the 6 to 15 per cent payments which the British are planning to of fer. e e e NOTES Prof, Moley'i magazine will advocate a nationalist policy on the debts aud other international matters. It may frequently con flict with the views ot State Secretary Hull. However, there will be no direct attacks on Hull under present plans. Ford people say thare haa been no decline In their sale, sines Henry went into retirement on the NRA. see Tbe explanation ot Prof. Rogers that he is In Europe on the NKA, tooled no one here. He Is working on the commodity dollar. Some People Say What burnt me up It thtm dumb dames on tha west coast weartn pants. They don't have any shams. You'll never catch me In pants!
