ROOSEVELT IS SET TO SIGN STEEL CODE NRA Agreement Reached With Industry Chiefs at Long Session. READY FOR PRESIDENT 40-Hour Week Over Three Months Trial Period Is Provided. RV II O. THOMPSON United Prm Fluff ( orrMpondrnt WASHINGTON. Aug. 19. A deadlock keeping the great oil. coal ( and steel industries out of the national recovery ranks was broken by administration pressure today! when agreement was reached on a | steel code. Offlrials were confident smashing of the steel blockade foreshadowed early action to put the other in-{ dustries tinner recovery codes. General Hugh S. Johnson, hard-1 hitting NRA administrator, drove' the bargain on steel at protracted conferences with magnates that lasted much of the night. Code to Roosevelt Today Johnson hoped to place the formal code before President Roose- ! velt before he leaves for his home at Hyde Park. N. Y„ tonight. Quick action by the President, was forecast by Johnson’s announcement that the President already had approved the agreement made with the steel men. The agreement was for a ninetyday trial of a rode regulating hours and wages of 400.000 workers, with the NRA having a voice in administration of the trial code. Success in forcing the steel in- ! dustry into an agreement was re- j garded as a signal victory for the Roosevelt administration. In steel more than in any other industry the President's recovery policies came in direct conflict with the nations great financial powers, including the House of Morgan. Events Fast-Moving Events leading up to the agreement were fast-moving. Johnson turned from oil conferences to a "brief meeting" with steel leaders, including such personages as W. A. Irwin, president of the Morganbacked United Stales Steel Corporation. Former Governor Nathan J. j Miller of New York, his counsel; Eugene Grace, chairman of the board of Bethlehem Steel Corporation. and chairmen and presidents of other companies. Johnson faced them early Friday afternoon. Excited talk emanated from the conference room. All afternoon and far into the evening the session continued. There was a brief recess for dinner and then the meeting was resumed. Otl leaders came to see Johnson, but he sent them away. For God's sake don't bother me now." he said, and pointed to a double suite of rooms In Conference 12 Hours "I've got a den of lions in there." Midnight passed and the conference continued. Finally at 1 a. m. the steel magnates ranie out. They were glum. They looked straight ahead as they pressed their way through reporters. refusing to talk. Johnson had kept them in conference almost twelve hours Half an hour later Johnson emerged He was tired. His eyes were bloodslu* and his tie was askew. But he smiled broadly. He waved a typewritten paper vigorously. It was the announcement of the agreement and its approval by the President. Fix .Minimum Hours “The agreement provided for an aierage forty-hour week over the three-month trial period with no employe to work more than fortyeight hours or six riavs a week. If the stcpl production reaches 60 tier cent of capacity after Nov 1. an eight-hour day is provided for all employes except those in supervisory. or emergency capacities. "The minimum wages fixed in the code are estimated by steel companies to exceed an average of 40 cents an hour.' Johnson said. The companies have made a In per cent wage increase since July 1 and currently pay large groups of common labor higher wages than those fixed in the rode. Johnson said Exact wage schedules were unavailable.

Mars on Parade Efficient Fitfhtinjr Machine Is the 88th Division, Led by Far-Seeing General. CAMP KNOX. Ky.. Aug 19—There was a sound of steel on stone. The caissons wer rolling again. A division—the Thirty-eighth—-was on the move. Infantry,-with fixed bayonets on rifles at sling; quick shaking 755. thpir attendants at rest with folded arms; surly 155-mihmeter nowlizets. airplanes in power dives, tanks, armored cars, moving with deadly purpose through a Kentucky summer day.

Here was the age-old splendor of an army marching with banners. Fifty-eight hundred fighting men from Indiana. West Virginia and Kentucky moved past Major-Creneral George Van Horne Mosley and Major-General Robert Tvndal; ror three hours. It was the national guard but from the way the outfits swung by they might have been regulars. Friday’s review, headquarters officers said, represented the fruit of five years of planning Gen. Tvndal] has fought consistently to maneuver his command as a division which is the fighting unit of the United States army. He fought in the Spanish-American war. He commanded a field artillery regiment on the western front. He was determined that one division should train as a division, instead of as a scattered group of battalions, like the ordinary national guard units. a a a BY some alchemy, which none of his officers seem to understand. he has arranged to get funds to do this. Most of those close to him declare that this year's training was done on a shoestring. Friday's review showed that it w f ns an amazing shoestring.

Under the present plan, the national guard is the first echelon of defense in event of an ®meragency. General Tyndall undertook by a mass review to show that the Thirty-eighth division was ready. General Moseley, commanding the Fifth corps area, of which Inv.ana is a part, was on hand to place the official approval of the army upon the show. General Tyndall has undertaken to make his command division conscious. He is not interested in the outfits from the individual states as such. To him artillery is intended to support the infantry. whether it comes from Wheeling. W Va.. or Muncie, Ind. And infantry is supposed to take and hold enemy territory, whether it comes from Louisville or Indianapolis. So his men slogged by. their put teed legs moving with scissor - like precision, their horses nose to nose, to prove that three states could move together as a part of the nation's national defense program. A top sergeant, detailed to military police duty, lounged near the reviewing stand, watching the general as he sat his horse like a Centaur. “He's a good guy.” he said, ‘ but a barrel of nails for discipline.

FORD EXPECTED TO 'TOSS BOMB' Likely to Pay Higher Wages, Work Shorter Hours Than Code Asks. BV THOMAS 1.. STOKF.S Timm Special Writer WASHINGTON. Aug. 19,-Henry Ford, conspicuously missing from the ranks of automobile magnates here, plans to join President Roosevelt's recovery program later in his own w’av—and in a dramatic way. Ford refused to subscribe to the proposed code of the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce which now is the subject of public hearings here. He went further and criticised it. He did not even send a representative here. "What will Ford do?” was the big question as tiie hearing opened. Hii plan, it was learned today, is to wait until the code is approved—and then go one better. He intends to propose a code of his own w-ith higher wages and. perhaps, shorter working hours and dump it before the public with a flourish. Hugh S. Johnson, recovery administrator. insists upon one code for the industry. But there is nothing to prevent Ford from improving on it. It may be necessary for him to subscribe to the regulation code to conform literally with the law—if he will. Ford never had any intention but to co-operate with President Roosevelt. it is said authoritatively. MERCURY DROPS TO 10 DEGREES FROM NORMAL Touch of Fall Weather Enjoyed; City Temperature at 56.

they were caught in the act of loading a basket with apples, cakes and cheese. The young couple told police they had nothing but flour and water to eat for several days. On Jan. 24 of this year, the Pugh brothers surprised Wilbur Horn and Lee Drake in the store, shooting down Drake as he attempted to escape. Drake recovered and both he and Horn were sentenced later to six months on the state faun. After numerous lootings, the brothers prepaid a wiring system as a burglar alarm connected from the store to the house. Smith wounded in the back from the shoulders to his heels, told police he Vind met ins companion, "Bob. in Columbus.

Mrs. Wright has formed the Leviathan Amusement Corporation, but completion of her plans rests largely with the city.
