CODE CHANGING IS CHARGED BY DARROWBOARD Tampering Laid to Johnson in Report; Searching Inquiry Urged. By United Press WASHINGTON, June 12.—The Unofficial text of the Darrow board’s second report, anew attack on NRA oppression of small business, was revealed today. The document covers thirteen more codes and levies its strongest criticism against the retail trade code. Other codes covered are petroleum, bedding, boot and shoe, cement, coffee, electrical manufacturing, lumber, merchandise warehousing, plumbing fixtures, retail food and grocery, embroidery and lead pencils. Principal criticisms were: Trade associations controlled by large firms dominate code authorities. Production control measures throttle small units and raise prices. Basing point systems raise prices and hamper small competition. Lumber and cement codes hamper recovery through elimination of competitive bidding and high prices. Complaints against the electrical manufacturing, embroidery and warehousing codes were dismissed as based on misunderstandings. The board took sarcastic notice of the recent NRA order regarding price-fixing and continued its attack on the administration of General Hugh S. Johnson. Responsibility for “sinister changes” in the retail trade code was placed upon General Johnson and the board recommended “most emphatically that all codes, once adopted, should be free from lefthanded manipulations without notice, unless it is desired to cast the whole experiment of the national recovery act into the hands of irresponsible dictatorship.” Changing of retail code provisions after its approval by the industry and before submission to the President was characterized as “an arbitrary exercise of power that seems to demand searching inquiry on even graver grounds than those of economic justice.” Retail code features most strongly criticised were weakening of original underselling provisions, truth-in-ad-vertising claims, and the labor markup provision. “We hold that the code should be restored exactly to the form in which it was originally drafted and adopted,” said the report.
