The Tower of Babel was built in this corner of the earth, and in it rook place the confusion of tongues. Babylon, wonder city of antiquity and mistress of the world long before Grece or Rome, rose, flourished and crumbled to dust upon its plains. Astronomy was bom there. Also the twelve divisions on the faces of our clocks. And the laws of Babylon's Hammurabi became the foundation of the legal codes of this, and almost every other nation of the present day.

‘BIG BUSINESS' CODES HURRIED BY ROOSEVELT Steel. Coal. Oil Problems Under Direct Handling of President. BV RUTH FINNEY Tttnt* Sptrtal WrlUr WASHINGTON. Aug. 18—Under direct supervision of President Roosevelt the three major problems of the recovery drive neared adjustment today. Coal oil and steel codes may be ready for final approval before the President leaves Washington for Hyde Park Saturday night as a result of whirlwind activity in the past three days. A coal code written by the recovery administration was presented to coal operators today, two weeks in advance of the date on which such action was expected. It attempts to solve the coals labor problems at one bold stroke by providing for nation-wide recognition of the United Mine Workers of America, nation-wide agreement that miners will not strike and settlement of labor disputes by a permanent board of arbitration. Steel ( ode Ready Administrative reports on the steel code have bern completed and a revised agreement may be offered sieel operators today or Saturday. Anew rode for the oil industry, written by the recovery administration, was sent to President Roosevelt for approval today, less than twenty-four hours after its contents were made known to oil men. These basic industries, torn with dissensions in their own ranks, have stood in the way of the recovery program's forward drive for weeks. Decisive action bringing them under codes of fair competition immediately has apparently been decided on as the only method of clearing the way for the rest of the recovery program. The new coal code takes the place of twenty-nine separate codes presented by hostile groups within the industry. It contains collective bargaining guarantees for labor as required i y thp recovery act and omits all qualifying clauses which open shop operators had sought to write into their codes. Permanent Arbitration In some respects, its most important provision establishes permanent. machinery for arbitra'mn of all disputes within the coal industry similar to that existing for railroads. This machinery is Intended to take care of wage and other disputes which are certain to rise in the lndutsrv and which ran not be settled by strikes under the proposed agreement Coal operators may agree to recognize the conservative A. F. of L. organization on these terms. They would at Lhe same time secure themselves against the inroads of more radical labor groups. A similar provision may be included in the steel code bv the NRA. Less progress has been made in unionization of steel, so far, than in coal. President Roosevelt began work on these three troublesome codes the day he returned to Washington from his first Hyde Park sojourn. Confer* Every Day He has had one or more coherences each day with Administrator Johnson. Interior Secretary Ickes. who is closely in touch with the oil program, and other cabinet members concerned. Wednesd y he had a long conference with Myron Taylor, chairman of the board of United States Steel Corporation, and Charles M. Schwab, chairman of the board of Bethlehem Steel, at a time when action of other steel men in refusing to attend a conference at which William Green. NRA labor adviser, was present, threatened further delay in adjusting differences. A day later, the President called four of the largest bituminous coal operators to the White House, all of them leaders in the movement to force an open shop clause into the coal code in defiance of the recovery act.
