RICHBERG BOARD FACES FIGHT ON 36-HOUR WEEK Garment Industry Dispute Poses First Problem for New Group. By United Press WASHINGTON, Sept. 29.—A general drive to reduce working hours to thirty-six a week and increase wages of skilled workers greeted the new national industrial recovery board today as one of the first and most difficult problems. The first test of the hourly reduction probably will come in the cotton garment industry. The industry was granted a stay until Oct. 15 of an order of President Roosevelt reducing hours 10 per cent, increasing piece workers’ wages and maintaining regular wage scales. The President directed that study be made prior to the effective date of the order, with the provision that both sides agree to accept the findings as final. Although particularly opposed to the piece-rate increase the industry was understood to have notified the new NRA board that if further study was given to the reduction order with both sides permitted to present evidence, the order would be accepted if the board so ordered after hearing. With heavy emphasis on reassurance to industry, the board, already organized by long distance telephone, prepared to launch its administration early next week. The task which the board faced under chairmanship of S. Clay Williams, tobacco manufacturer, was not an easy one. Several hundred of the 700 codes now in force present special, and knotty questions for decision. The unemployment situation was seen as one of the most pressing tasks before the new board. Under General Hugh S. Johnson about three million persons were estimated to have been put back to work. Ten million more are idle. The quickest method of putting men to work—by reducing working hours under the codes—appears likely to receive new attention.

POLLUTION WAR GAINS SUPPORT OF CiyiCCLUBS Group Backs Park Board in Decision to Clean Up Fall Creek. Problems of stream pollution and flood control in Indianapolis and the possibility of municipal acquisition of public utilities were discussed last night at a meeting of the Federation of Community Civic Clubs in the Washington. The charge that the stagnant condition of Fall creek. White river, Pleasant Run creek. Eagle creek and Pogue's Run creek was a menace to the health of persons living near them was made and the federation decided to support the park board s plan to remove sand bars from them and dig a channel in Fall creek. The board has said that this will relieve stagnation in the stream and, at the same time, act as a flood prevention measure, and that work could be started the first of next week. Edwin H. Emrick. Fusionist candidate for mayor, who, it was explained, appeared as a citizen rather than a candidate, urged the value of public ownership of utilities.: quoting figures and citing examples which, he said, proved that such ownership would cut utility rates to at least half what they are now and, at the same time, reduce taxes. Mr. Emrick said that Indianapolis citizens should be far more interested in acquiring the Indianapolis Light and Power and the Indianapolis Water Companies than the Citizens’ Gas Company, since the first two make all of their profits from the .sale of utility services while the gas company also is in the coke business. He said that 52.3 per cent of all light and power plants in the United States are municipally owned and quoted rates fromvarious cities where municipal* plans are located. He said that the" rates here would be cut to one-half if the plant should be acquired at m its book value and pointed out thatthis would not be necessary since it; could be condemned legally. Mr. Emrick attacked especially the" salaries paid to officials of the In-; dianapolis Light and Power Com-. pany and discussed the devices bylT which, he said, holding companies' are employed by utility magnates to “milk’’ the consuming public. Approximately seventy persons, Z delegates from the federation's mem-; ber clubs, attended. Killer of Father Sentenced By United Press * FRANKLIN, Pa., Sept. 29.—Rus-. sell A.
