NRA Heads For First Retreat

CONSIHEK DROl’PINC AITEMI’T El> CONTROL OK SM VLI. BUSINESSES WASHINGTON, Way 11 (OP) NRA today seemed headed for its first big retreat. Officials admitted they were considering abandoning codes for small intra-state businesses and sendees industries such as dry cleaning, laundrying and restaurants. Many NRA executives are sick of the constant turmoil and legal battles that have enveloped these codes.

They feel results aren’t worth the cost. Senate investigation of NRA unless President Roosevelt speedily makes public the Darrow board re-port was threatened by Senator Gerald P. N\e, Republican. North Dakota. The federal trade commission at the same time reported to> the senate 'hat the oil code has cost motorists $106,500000 in higher gasoline prices. Nye was instrumental in obtaining ippointment of this NRA review hoard, headed by the famed lawyer, Clarence Harrow. The board made a partial report to the president last week. It is understood to condemn many phases of the NRA. particularly in respect t" small business and to all for not lo-s but more, federal regulation. Mr. Roosevelt has sent the report

to the justice department, NRA and other agencies for the purpose, according to the White House, of being -digested" so that condensed abstracts could be made for the press. ‘‘Statements attributed to the president that the report was too voluminous to digest easily are ridiculous,” Nye said. “The report is only 6,000 words long, according to information given me by Darrow.” The White House had nothing to jay to that. The question af abandoning many small codes raises serious problems for Administrator Hugh S. Johnson. It was he who held out for codification of all business. He felt confident that small concerns, not affected by the federal power to regulate interstate business, could be taken care of through rtate laws. But only 16 states so far have passed state NRA enforcement acts. Such codes as that for dry cleaning have been surrounded by constant disputes. They have diverted attention from the major, steel, coal, automobile and similar codes which officials feel are the ones that will make or break recovery. The report on the oil code, which is administered by Secretary of Interior Harold L. Ickes rather than the NRA showed that gasoline prices went up an average of 2 cents after the code was approved. Subsequent reductions made the average increase to date 1.04 cents. Consumption is so great that even such a slight increase, the commission said, had cost cost consumers $160,550,000 from July 1 1933, to Jan. 31, 1934.

Total Default Of Vrar Debts Looms

DEBTOR NATIONS EXPECTED TO LET JUNE 15 INSTALLMENT GO UNPAID WASHINGTON, May 11, (UP) — Total default of June 15 payments on Europe’s 10 billion war debt appeared likely today. The state department has informed representatives of debtor nations no further token payments can prex-ent application of the Johnson act against them, the United Press learned. Barring reversal of this decision, observers believed all the major debtors and most of the others would R-t the next payment day go by without handing the United States a nickel. On June 15, $175,647,349 is due from 13 countries. Sax»e for little Finland, few if any of the debtors are disposed to make full payments. And with the Johnson act placing the label of defaulter on them unless they pay in full, there is little incentive for further partial payments. The Johnson act forbids American private or government advances to any country in default in whole or in part on debts to thi ; . government. Attorney General Homer S. Cummings ruled that past token payments b> Great Britain, Italy, Czechoslavakia, Latvia and Lithuania had cleared them of , I-fault under the act for the time being. ( ummings said he would accept whatever decision President Roose-

velt made on future tokens. Debtors saw a glimmer of hope there. Their diplomatic representatives rushed to the state department for official interpretations. The state department broke the bad news, as forecast by the United Press early this week. The state department, it was understood, told them the United States would continue to welcome payments or tokens, but that as far as their status under the Johnson act was concerned, it was either pay in full or be classed in default. It was learned authoritatively, too, that officials told the debtor representatives this country still was witling to listen for any new proposals for debt revision. But there seems scant prospect of any such propositions being advanced or being worked out before June 15. Great Britain owes $85,670,065 June 15. Barring possibility of some arrangements being made for payment in silx-er at a sizeable premium' officials felt little hope that Britain would pay. She is dissatisfied with the present debt agreement and made past token payments largely to prevent being branded as a defaulter. She was especially anxious to ax-oid this onus because other nations owe her billions. If she defaulted, her own creditors could follow suit with less risk. There had ireon hints from Paris of a possible token payment soon on the French account. Today’s ruling, however, was believed to have killed all prospect of that. France and sevi eral other nations completely ignored the last two payments.
