NRA EXPECTS i MORE GRIEF IN ; CLOSING MILLS • Cotton Plants to Shut Down Entirely for Portion of Summer. BY RUTH FINNEY Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, May 24. NRA, already up to its ears in controversy, has issued anew order which may cause more fireworks than the Darrow report. ; It permits cotton mills to close down entirely one-fourth the time they would normally work during the next three months. This is the most drastic step taken so far in the direction of limiting production. It is in line with NRA s fundamental thesis that if production gets too far ahead of demand, business, workers and the public all suffer. But NRA critics, already brandishing their cutlasses and pistols, show signs of launching a crusade in the name of the consumer similar to the one they have carried on in the name of small business. The have pounced on the fact that cotton textile prices rose more, proportionately, during the past year than other commodities and that the new order will keep them up. Small Mills Protected. NRA says the order will prevent many small mills from shutting down entirely and throwing men out of work. It argues that the general reduction of working hours will divide what business there is fairly among northern and southern mills, large ones and small ones, and will mean that 145,000 new workers hired during the year will not lose their jobs. Rexford G. Tugwell, assistant agriculture secretary, made similar arguments in defending crop limitation a few weeks ago. “The very existence of a glut of farm products has been one of the important causes of the lack of consumer purchasing power,” he said. “The pressure of abnormal supplies on the market tends to upset the delicate balance of price and income relationships . . . The nation s economic machine, gorged with an excess of farm and other products, breaks down as surely as a human stomach gets acute indigestion if too much food is forced into it.” But Washington is not going to let the matter pass without debate. Rayon and synthetic yarn mills also are permitted by the new order to shut down for shorter periods. Silk is already on a limited holiday basis. Business has put the stamp of approval on one of the fundamental Roosevelt reforms it used to consider radical. Henry I. Harriman. president of the United States chamber of commerce, believes the "most significant move of the next two decades” will be relocation of industry in small towns and suburbs, so that workmen way have the security which comes from owning homes and gardens and raising food enough on which to live. He made this statement in an address in which he said he was presenting the views of business generally. Industrial Progress Made President Roosevelt and his brain trusters have been talking about this for a year and a half. Their subsistence homestead projects are a start in that direction. The federal emergency relief administration has put establishment of communities linking agriculture and industry at the top of its relief program for the coming year. It has made substantial progress with this task. It has already secured consider-

able land, by making trades with counties and states, which needy families will be allowed to farm. Negotiations are under way for thousands of additional acres. It is talking over with certain industries the possibility of establishing rural plants. Families which enter the communities will be given a chance to buy the land they work. They will be loaned livestock and be given a chance to buy that, too. A hundred families have already moved from Houston. Tex., into such a community. They have three-acre tracts around each home, and twelve acres of tillable land outside the village. To earn a little cash the families are making rawhide bottomed chairs and other simple furniture. In some communities public work will be arranged to supplement incomes. But wherever private industry will provide employment it will be left a clear field.
