The commission hopes that some of the projects may be started this fall. Adams explain'd that the highway department will have no part in hiring workers. It will be left to contractors who will take men from poor relief rolls. A Sullivan conaty delegation, headed by Norval Harris, appeared before the commission late yesterday, asking extension of road 4b w at from Shclburn to the Illinois line. Complete consideration was promised by the commissioner. FINAL DRAFT OF COAL CODE TO OPERATORS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) White House lor presidential approval—was not expected to take long. The major operators were represented on the committee j which agreed to the code's terms. ■‘Unquestionably we will get a rode after a meeting of operators today," Johnson said wearily after working with mine and union leaders until 2 a. m. The code in tinal form provides for fixing of minimum prices; Prescribes a maximum 40-hour work week; Sets basic minimum wages for underground workers ranging from $3.75 to $5.63 In 16 districts; Recognizes right of miners to organize; Creates regional and national hoards to govern the industry and settle labor disputes. It becomes effective the second Monday after presidential approval. Johnson had hoped for action on the code by operators last night.. This was delayed by further negotiations over the wage agreements between operators and the United Mine Workers. The wage contracts are to accompany the code. Johnson said signing of the code was not necessarily contingent on completion of the wage contracts, but he was anxious to "clean them up at one blow." NRA officials I blamed a group of West Virginia, | Kentucky and Virginia operators for the delay on the wage contracts. The administrator, dashed to a | hotel conference at 1 a. m.; threatening to keep the negotiators in session all night. The meeting broke up however, at 2 a m. “It would be cruelty to animals to keep them going any longer,” Johnson said, himself appearing very weary. The new code retains the minimum price provisions contained In the code drafted by NRA a week ago. It forbids sale of coal at less than "fair market prices" to be determined by regional marketing agencies and subject to government review. The provision for a flat maximum 40-hour week replaces a plan for a 32-hour week for 26 weeks and a 40-hour week for 26 weeks thereafter. Hours of work may be shortened If a majority of workers at a mine desire to share work with unemployed men. Under the code the NRA will study practicability of shortening hours and making further adjustments in wages. Representatives of operators and miners will meet j with NRA officials on Jan. 5, 1934, to consider what changes should be made. Basie daily minimum rates of pay for skilled inside workers and common outside labor were prescribed with the understanding

views that he is an ex-husband of Marie Dressler’s. Nearly every star in the business has been victimized by such phonies, , but it’s a shame to bother Marie, who needs every ounce of her strength to comi plete ‘‘The Late Christopher Bean.” How swell she was about it tool

A suspicious editor of a Cleveland newspaper telegraphed: “Racing man here (giving name) says in interview that he was married to you at Weatherford, Texas, and divorced six years later.” With that forgiving nature and saving sense of humor of hers, Marie wired back: “Statement untrue in every respect, but I am very tired and need a long rest, so if his horses are running well and he has two million dollars or so I might consider his proposition at this time.” One of the better known lyric writers recently was assigned to a : picture very similar to Warner Brothers’ “Forty Second Street.” As Mannie Self tells it, the producer came to the writer and suggested: “Why don’t you do us a song like ‘The Shadow Waltz’?” Whereupon, in a squelch elegant, j the writer came back: “Listen, you’re writing ‘Forty- ! Second Street,’ not ‘The Goldiggers’; stick to it.” Here’s a hot one. The eastern antics of Huey Long are keeping ! Warner Brothers writers at top speed adding sequences to “The King Fish." On the day after it happened, that fisticuff episode was in the script. Now, the loud Louisi-

accomodate the large crowd expected. The state contests are held in November after seieetion of contest winners in various competing counties. The field selected for the contest must have rows 60 rods long with corn planted in check rows. Lamson Murder . Trial To Jury San Jose. Calif. Sept. 16-(UP>— David A.
