SHOWDOWN ON LABOR QUESTION DRAWS NEARER Harriman (Tenn.) Blue Eagle Action May Crystalize Public Opinion. BY RUTH FINNEY Time* Special Writer. WASHINGTON. April 28.—A real showdown on the labor question seems to be near in spite of President Roosevelt's desire to rid himself of it. The violent schism in the town of Harriman, Tenn. over removal of the Blue Eagle from the Harriman Hosiery Company may crystalize public opinion generally on the issue of organized labor, and determine Just how far the administration shall go in regard to it. The Blue Eagle was removed because the company refused to bargain with A. F. of L. representatives oelcted by its workers. More than half the other merchants in Harriman have torn down their blue eagles in protest at the ruling. Genera! Johnson has sent two representatives to Harriman to investigate. Auto Settlement Crumbles Meanwhile, the 'social engineering" structure erected in settling the automobile strike has crumbled rapidly. The national labor board is on record in a decision just handed down in the Indianapolis Hosiery strike as rejecting principles on which the automobile settlement war, based. Apparently, the five officials rewriting the Wagner labor disputes bill will take the same stand. This means that Section 7-A of the recovery act may have to be interpreted all over again. The automobile settlement held that bargaining representatives elected by union members should bargain for union members only, and that workers in the same plant voting for company union representation should have it. The labor board believes this idea is impractical. In its Indianapolis ruling it held that representatives receiving a majority vote must be recognized as bargaining for all the workers in a plant. Incidentally, this decision puts a company union in power. The A. F. of L. was in a minority in the plant in which the ruling was made. Danger of Regimentation Trying to steer around the Scylla of collective bargaining the administration is in danger of running head-on into the Charybdis of regimenation as represented in labor's thirty-hour week bill—a regimentation it. has been trying for a year to avoid. Its effots to bring about voluntary reduction of working hours to increase employment have met with little success and today the A F. of L. charged that while business activity in March was more than 3 per rent above the October level. 783.000 more persons were out of work in March than in October. "These figures show that something more than an increase in business activity is needed to put men back to work.” President William R. Green commented. Feedration figures show 10.005,000 persons without jobs in March. New Payoff Bill Skirmishing in the house of representatives over government liquidation of frozen bank deposits took anew turn today. Chairman Henry B. Steagall of the house banking and currency committee, who helped administration forces sidetrack the McLeod payoff bill last week, has introduced a less drastic payoff bill of his own. It woudl increase the capitalization of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to $2.225.000.(T00. making this sum available for release by the corporation of frozen assets lh closed banks. There has been no indication that the President will accept this new measure. Motor Bus Legislation Congress has been trying to get around to regulating motor bus transportation for years and has failed to do so. Now the industry proposes to regulate itself. Anew section jus tadded to the NRA motor bus code provides that members may complain to their code authority about competitors whose prices they believe are too low. The code authority is given power to establish a reasonable rate” and enforce it throughout the industry. To congress is still left the task of equalizing competitive rates between railroads and busses. NRA embarks on anew adventure in price fixing in the automobile tire code now ready for General Johnson's signature. The code provides that if an emergency exists in the industry the administration shall establish a reasonable minimum price for tires, and just as soon as the code is signed an emergency is to be declared. NRA will then announce that no tires may be sold below $6.70 for class A. $6.05 for class B and $5.20 for class C. Henderson Recommends Move Not the least interesting angle of he matter is the fact that the new venture is recommended by Leon Henderson, who came to Washington to criticise NRA policies and remained to become head of the division of research and planning. Mr. Henderson say sthe new minimum prices are above the invoice rost of tires to the average small retail dealer, but even then wiH not pay more than part of his labor costs. When the industry came to Washington to ask NRA's help in stopping price wars, Mr. Henderson asked the tire men to tell newspapers they were begging for regimentation. They didn't do it. but they got what they wanted, nevertheless.

PREPARE CAR FOR SUMMER, STOOPS URGES Motor Club Official Lists Essentials for Change of Seasons. As temperatures begin their slow climb upward, Tod Stoops, secre-tary-manager of the Hoosier Motor Culb, urges motorists to tune up their cars for summer driving. "Many motorists content themselves with draining the anti-freeze and changing from lighter to heavier oils, but there are other things to be done,” Mr. Stoops said. “Recently automotive engineers have been advising the use of lighter oils for all normal driving, as a means of saving gasoline and wear of automobile parts. Especially do they advise lighter oils for breaking in new' cars. "In addition the motor should be tued; the fan belt, hose and pump tightened; body bolts checked for wear; wheels aligned: steering mechanism and brakes tested and adjusted; carburetor set for hot weather; the generator set for lower charging rate, and the battery tested with attention to the connection w'ires. "Overhauling the cooling system is particularly important. Leaving the anti-freeze in the car at this season is comparable to letting the car freeze in winter. "Mere draining of the antifreeze is not sufficient. The motorist should flush out the cooling system with one of the many prepared solutions now’ on the market. If the ow'ner undertakes the job himself he will find the following procedure helpful; run the motor at idling speed until it is warm and then open the cocks to let the water drain, after which the cock should be closed. Repair Prices Low "Then pour into the radiator a cleaning solution, again starting the motor at a slightly faster rate to assure circulation of the solution. "The job is finished by flushing the cooling system with enough clean water to remove the soda or salt used for cleansing. It is also desirable to check the radiator and pump conections and have any leaks repaired quickly. "It is advisable to have the lights, brakes and other safety features handled by a competent mechanic. This work can be done at the lowest cost in years.” MACKINAC TO OBSERVE NORTHWEST DISCOVERY Elaborate Pageants to Feature Nicolet Celebration Week. By Times Special DETROIT, Mich..

Half of Finland is clothed with valuable timber. Railway locomotives burn wood instead of coal. In the days of w'ooden ships Finland held an important place in shipbuilding. More and more of the squarerigged Cape Horn grain ships have fallen into Finnish hands. But with the steel ship dominating modern marine traffic, lack of iron ore has crowded the Finns from their once important place in general shipping on the ocean.

City Practitioner Points to Developments Which Prevent Pain. That almost inherent dread of the j dentist’s chair has vanished with j ;he invention of Maxoline, a painless method of extraction and treatment of teeth, according to Dr. W. H. Hanning, Indianapolis dentist. Modern science has vanquished the bugaboo of fear of the dentist's buzzing drills and sharp instruments, Dr. Hanning believes. Painful moans and high shrieks emanating from dentists’ offices in the j films are a thing of the distant | past, according to Dr. Hanning. Dr. Hanning and his staff of j laboratory assistants have spent more than ten years developing Maxoline. The Hanning Brothers’! dental clinic, second floor of the Kresge building, is one of the largest iental suites in the middle west. The suite includes eight operation booths. Complete laboratory j and beautifully appointed reception rooms are maintained. Hanning! Brothers have branch offices in South Bend, Terre Haute and Muncie. Dr. Hanning said in reference to the steps taken to improve the science of dentistry: "Beyond a doubt the greatest development for good • in modern dental work has been the attitude j of the people themselves in their; acceptance of dentistry. "People no longer look upon nec- j cssary dental work with dread and appr c hension. The average layman | of this generation does not procrastinate and prolong the proper care and treatment of his teeth j because of fear. "Persons today realize the impor- j tance of taking care of their teeth j and they also know that application j of developed dental sciences can be practically painless.” He explained that three factors have been mainly influential in the
