NRA Flayed By As Danger Says Censorship s Next Step If Union Demands Are Admitted CHICAGO.—(AP)—E. H. Har ris of Richmond, Ind., secretary of the American Newspaper Publish ers association, said Tuesday that the constitutional guarantee of a free press in the United Sttaes is in grave danger of destruction un der the National Recovery ad'min istration. Mr. Harris, publisher of the Richmond Palladium and Item, has been active in the negotiations of the association for a newspaper code under the NRA, and he spoke Tuesday before the Inland Press association. He asserted that the refusal of the Recovery administration to accept two sections of the proffer ed code—one intended to safeguard the freedom of the press and the other prohibiting unions from or ganizing non-union newspaper plants where employes do not de sire union affiliations—had placed in, jeoprady free journalism and free government. : “Journalism fias been destroyed entirely in Germany,” Harris said. “In the United States, congress has enacted the National Indus trial Recovery Act which gives to the government the 'right to lic ense all forms of industry. “Dhe newspapers of the United States are now being asked to sign an agreement with the gov ernment under the N. I. R. s which will abridge the right of a free press in this country. “Organized labor is in command of the N. R. A. and is attempt ing to organize every department of a 4 mnewspaper plan, including even the news department. “The application of a censorship of the press by organized labor is possible if the newspapers submit to the demands of unions as ex pressed in the N. I. R. AN Reviewing the powers giv.en thy executive department of the gov ernment by congress in writing the recovery act. Harris asserted: “Manry observers have gone SO far as to assert that our constitu-l tional form 'of government has been discarded. They believe the people the United States are sub mitting to these changes, beoause they are in a state of mind in which they are unwilling to heed the warnings of their foretathersl and are willing to accept any plan that will restore normal condi- { tions. - ! “But let us remember that thel price we pay for these temporary expedients is loss of free govern ment. ‘ “We are now far advanced in this stage of retrogression. ~ “The nuegotiations which the publisher's’ committee have been carrying on with the government" at Washington have proved con clusively that there is a plan un der way at Washington — either ylth or without President Roose velt’s consent—to apply ‘the heat’ to the newspaper publishers to force them into line with this Publisher To Free Piess TAMMANY LODKING O SMITH FOR AID éMcKee Denounces La | Guardia for Bringing | Race Issue Into Fight ' NEW YORK.—(AP)—Tammany Hall, fighting the most potent 'threat to its power in years, will lopen its formal mayoral campaign | Tuesday night with its strategists | groping for an answer to the all- important guestion: “Will Al Smith come to the res cue of the organization ” Tammany had #o word as to whether former Governor Smith would appear Tuesday night at the opening rally for Mayor John P. O’Brien at “The Hall.” Some of Smith's intimates were of the opinion that he would not appear. The campaigns of Tammany’s two foes, the Fusion and the Re covery party, continued to get up steam Tuesday . Parading to Queens amid streams of red fire Monday night, Fiorello H. La- Guardia, Fusion nominee, accused the city government of milking small home owners to hand tax cuts to big property owners. Joseph V. McKee, Recovery party candidate, again denied La- Guardia’s charge of anti-Semitism. He said an article he wrote in 1915, ‘while a school teacher, did not criticize the ethical outlook of Jewish school children, but eriti cized “only those who abandoned Judaism.” He denounced LaGuar dia for injecting the issue into the campaign.

STOCK MART FAGING SUBPOENA Pecora Promises to Force Their Appearance at Senate Probe OFFICIALS SKEPTICAL First Subpoenas in New Drive Against Exchange Go Out Today WASHINGTON ~—(AP)— EHEvery member of the New York Stock Exehange—l,37s in all—Tuesday were listed for subpoena before the Senate banking committee.

The first subpoenas, he said, go out Tuesday- Despite Pecora’s announcement that the committee has mno alter native but to issue sut')poenas after exchange authorities” refused to submit memberg a questionnaire, frank skepticism prevailed in some official quarters over the practica bility of bringing such an army of witneses to the capitol.

At any rate thig is the opin jon of Dr. Alan Brown, physi cian-in-chief of the hospital for sick children at Toronto, and professor of pediatrics at the University of Toronto. “Loving relatives,” Dr. Brown told the International medical assembly Monday night, “are a baby’'s worst en emies. They do not realize that respiratory infections— head colds and pneumonia— do not fly in at the window but are conveyed from person to person by direct contact . with the breath. “These ioving relatives core in and hang all over the baby One of them has a cold or something and passes it on to the poor defenseless infant. “Then if the infant survives all that, the grandmothers and the rest of the relatives spoil the child and leave him to his parents, who have all the work of trying to get rid of their child’s bad habitis. These loving relatives ‘don’'t care what happens because they don’t have the responsibility.” CARL HANCOCK NEW MEMBER OF STAFF OF BANNER-HERALD Carl Hancock, popular young Athens man and graduate of The University of Georgia, has joined the news staff of The Banner-Her ald.

BUSINESS UPTURN CHOWN N ATHENS Many Merchants Here Elated Over Recent In creases in Trade Athens merchants are certain that business is definitely on the upgride, and all are enthusiastic over prospects. David Michael, manager of Mich ael Brothers, says that business has been increasing eagh week, and althuogh his firm did not re duce its workiing force radically during the worst business period, that the force has been increased during the gast few weeks *to take care of the increase in business. F. E. McHugh, manager of Gal lant-Belk, is very elated over the recent increase in sales. He de clares ‘that last week wag one of the best his store has enjoyed since it opened in Athens. Gallant-Belk has added fourteen regular employes and ,other part time workers during the past six weeks., Mr. McHugh is well pleas-! ed with the way people have re sponded to President Roosevelt’s! NRA plans. s ‘ Milton Lesser, manager of Less-‘ er’s Apparel Shop while admitting that business is better each week, is inclined to think that most of the increase is due to the fact zoods are selling for higher prices,‘ and that this causes the volume of sales to be larger. The sudden rise in prices means that the merchant must necessa rily take smaller profits for awhile, Mr. Lesser says. Most Athens mer chants are well stocked, he says, and have not raised prices to the ievel which will be necessary when new goods are bought. R. H. Gloyd, manager of Pen ney’s, is likewise optimistic over the steadiy increasing business. ‘He says units as well as volume of ;sales have increased materially ‘during the past month or so, and )that the customers are making ‘more purchases, as well as paying higher prices for the goods. ’ Penny's has added six new reg |ular employes since August Ist, in laddition to calling in extra help on Saturday.

The orders came a short time after two storm troopers who as saulted Roland Velz, a native of Meriden, Conn., when he failed to salute the Nazi emblem were sen tenced to six months in jail on charge of assault and battery. The hearing was held in a so-called speed court. “Foreign citizens must in every way possible be given public pro tection,” said the Interior Minis try’s instruction. “Should police intervention be necessary, special tact, cautiousness and courtesy must be used.” The ministry also instructed au thorities throughout the Reich to make contact with the local Nazi party and the leaders of the storm troops and steel helmets to im press upon them and the member ship that it is the self-evident duty of the true Nazi to rega{d hospitality as sacred.

Jackson’s Charges Bring Reply From Industrial Laundry The Banner-Herald received the following communication Tuesday, with the request that it be publish ed: Recently there was a news fitem in The Athens Banner-Herald stating that Jackson’s Laundry had filed a petition in the district court of the United States, in which was alleged, among other things, that “The Industrial Laundry and Dry Cleaning company, Inc., and the United States Hoffman Ma chinery corporation had conspired to wreck the business of the Jack son Laundry.

State’'s Attorney Von Haacke of the Prussian ministry of justice, acted as prosecutor. He demanded the six months penalty and the court agreed. . “Well, that’s getting astion,” happily exclatmed a high Ameri can embassy official on learning of the verdict. The official, who was intimately acquainted with the case, said “that is great progress. I consider this the turning point in the treat ment of assailants of foreigners. “The court acted speedily and gsternly, even though one of the assailants was a storm trooper.” However, it developed that both assailants were storm troopers— Paul Eckardt, by profession a glass blower, and Fried Wilbertz, a chauffeur. Both testified they were greatly excited when according to their ideas Velz acted as though he had contempt for the swastika, the Nazi flag.

With the disarmament confer ence in recess until October 26, representatives hurried homeward to devise new plans to meet the emergency created by Germany's withdrawal.
