FINES AND J AIL TERMS INVOKED BY I’RESIDKN I LAST NIGHT FULL POWER TO JOHNSON Mr. Koimcvclt In Sweeping Executive Order Delegates Power To NRA Administrator WASHINGTON, Oct. 18 (UP) Fines and jail terms faced vbdat rs of recovery codes and agreements to-
day.
President Roosevelt invoked tbo penal sections of the national Indus trial recovery act last night in a sweeping executive order an I delegated lull powers to Administrat'ir Hugh S. Johnson to prevent violnU ns of the law and force compliance with codes and agreements, and ill ruks and regulation- issued under them. Johnson immediately supplemented the nrt sident’s order with regul rtioris placing those who display the blue ; g|» tui'Ier the president's reemployment agreement on an equal footing with those for whom codes have Been promulgated. Ji hnsoli's regulati' irs .ilda required surrender of the blue eagle upon demand. The president acted under sei lion IP tA) of the law. It reads: “The president is authorized to prescribe such rules and regulations is may be necessary to carry out the purposes of this title, and fees for licenses nnri for filing codes of fair <( mpetition and agreements, and any violation of any such rule or regulation shall he puni-hahle by fine .if not to exceed $500, or imprisonment for not to exceed six months, or both.” The president's order was in four parts. Tbp first prohibited anyone from falsely representing himself to be discharging the obligations, or complying with the provisions, of agreements, codes, or rules or regulations. The second pi ihljMted the u.-e of the blur' -acrlc contrary co rules prescribed by Johnson. 'The third delegated to Johnson the Pi/wer ti enforce the first two provisions, and “take su.h other steps as he may deem advisable to effectuate -mb rules ami regulations or any rules so prescribed by the administrator, and to appoint personal and delegate thereto such powers ns may be deemed necessary to accomplish the purposes of this order." The fourth part of the order set forth the penalties contained in the law. Under that authority, .1 hnson issued five regulations 'The fir-t pro claimed the blue eagle insignia the proper; of the government. The second provided for its display upon •ompliance with code.-, agreements, rules and regulations. The third return'd its surrender upon demand by Johnson "T his authorized representative.
