cess. Miss Bonnie Mae Nichols !
returned to Gaines school on Wed
mesday of last week to prepare tml

ters. We are grateful to Mrs. Mills
for this splendid cooperation. The
surplus commodities have bheen
very limited during the past few

Midway Point of Term
Of Roosevelt Comes
Tomorrow
(Contirued From Page One)
which typified the early days of
the administration,
Gradual Movement
The Roosevelt monetary program
was a gradual move-by-move de
velopment beginning with the fi
nancial panic which reached ‘its
height in the early hours of the
day on which he was inaugurated.
He closed all banks immediately,
forbade private circulation of gold
bullion,. gold coin and gold certi
ficates, took the nation off the gold
standard and .devalued the gold
dollar. :
Prior to the last named action,
congress adopted an administration
resolution invalidating the clause
contained in most bonds and con
tracts specifying that payment shal’
be in a stipulated quantity of gold,
on demand, or its equivalent in the
currency of the moment,
Qutstanding are some $100,000,-
000,000 in such bonds and contracts
issued when the dollar contained
25.8 grains of gold. Now its gold
contents is 15 5-21 grains. Bond
holders brought suit asking pay
ment in gold or the equivalent of
that gold in the new currency.
Thus an olg SI,OOO bond, if the
court sustains that view, would be
redeemable at $1.696 and the out
standing total .of $100,000,000,000
would be worth, instead of face
value in the new currency, the sum
of $169,000,000,000,
Government counsel told the
court the result would be “chaos.”
Though not expecting an adverse
decision, the administration has,
neverthelass, prepared plans of act
jon intended to meet quickly any of
the eventualities of the decision.
The industrial recovery act and
the NRA codes on which they are
based were held wunconstitutional
by the federal district court. The
supreme court has consented to re
view the case and soon will hear
argument upon it.
Incredible Height
The NRA, pushed to an incredi
ble height of popular acceptance by
the vigorous General Hugh S, John
son, was held out as the savior of
business from cutthroat competi
tion and the magna charta of or
ganized labor.
Its codes contained agreements
between employers that labor would
not be paid less than g stipulated
wage nor worked more than a sti
pulated number of hours within a
week. Some of them included sus
pension of the anti-trust laws to
end destructive price-cutting.
All contained the now famous and
still controversal section “7-A” in
which the emplovers agreed that
their workers shoulg be free to join
any labor organization they wished
and select their own representatives
for collective bargaining.
The general purpose was to give
employment a push upward by re
ducing the hours of those already
on payrolls and giving the time cut
from their working day to those
not employed. Johnson claimed
the device put 3,000,000 to work
within a year.
Johnson, picturesque of language
and forceful of action, leaped into
the task of organizing NRA with
Winterville: Alice Nelson, Fran
ces Carter, Gwendolyn Nash, Eula
Bryant, Eunice Bryant, Frances
Crowley. i .
Gaines: Nina Johnson, Elizabeth
Eidson, Hilda Hancock.
Hinton-Brown: Dorris Fowler,
Vera Lee Sime, Blanche Sims.
The regular meeting date for the
council was set for the second Sat

fervor. Within a space of months
most of the nation's industries had
been codified.
It was not long, however, until
independent Republicans in the
senate were complaining that NRA
had proved injurious to the small
business man, and labor was com
plaining that the freedom guaran
‘teed by section 7-A was far from
an actuality.
l A national labor relations board
|wus appointed to deal with charges
of violation of 7-A and to order
workers elections in instances in
which disputes arose as to whether
independent or company unions
|shnuld be the collective bargaining
instruments of a plants’ employ
es,
In a decision, the board ruled
that when a majority of a plants'
lemployes vote for a union it shall
gpeak for all of them., The com
pany in question refused to com
ply. The board’s recommendation
for prosecution still lies in a jus
tice department pigeon hole,
Labor Restless
Labor grew restless., President
Roosevelt decided that when codes
provide labor adjustment boards,
the national labor relations board
shall have no jurisdiction. Labor
had raised the opposite contention.
Then within a week, Mr. Roose
velt extended the automobile code,
over the protest of the American
Federation of Labor and the breath
was complete. It blamed Richberg,
charging he hag misinformed the
president.
Over problems of reorganizing
NRA, Johnson became involved in
protracted quarrels with rßic:hberg
and withdrew. A board is now at
the head ot the agency and its fu
ture is being mapped in freauent
conferences at the White House.
Unless reenacted it will expire on
June 15.
With the bread-winners of 5,-
000,000 families estimateqg to be on
relief rolls, Mr. Roosevelt recently
set about the establishment of an
enormous public works program to
providé them with work, give them
wages instead of a dole,
He asked congress for $4,880,000,-
000 to finance the undertaking, and
for widespread discretionary pow
ers in the spending of the money.
It passed the house, but only after
assurance had heen given that nei
ther Ickes nor Hopkins would be
in charge,
Opponents Caiv'se Change
The bill went to the senate ap
propriations committee, Headeq by
the conservative Senator Glass, De
mocrat, Virginia, its oponents are
set upon abzrigding some of the
vast powers it would give the chief
executive, and if possible limiting
the manner in which it may be
spent.
Extreme oppositionists charge
that the first public works pro
gram, administered by Ickes had
proved a failure. It inveolved auth
‘orizations of $3.000,000,000 about
half of which has thus far been
spent, ;
The new banking bill, prepared
by treasury, reserve board and de
posit insurance corporation experts

Opponents charged at once, and
advocates conceded, that it would
Your Moer SERVANT
MWow CHEAPER THAN EVER.
The New Rates Are The Lowest
, .
In Athens’ History _
Never before have you been able to enjoy the convenience and
comfort of gas service at as low cost.
The savings in money to you made by the drastic cut in rates pre
scribed by the Public Service Commission, and now in effect, are
yours without any conditions or strings tied to them. You don’t
have to use more gas to get them. You already have them.
These Savings Will Buy More
Value in Increased Gas Service
Thanin Any Other Possible Way!
* That is not a figure of speech—it is a simple fact, and here's the
explanation:
If. for example, you cook writh gas, additional gas to use a radiant
heater, or water heater, costs considerably less. And gas to sup
ply still another appliance costs still less. : 2
So that by applying your savings under the new rates to addi- |
tional conveniences that gas will give your home, you will reduce

It provides for a veto in the fed
eral board over appointments to key
positions in the reserve banks, and
for a committee dominated by the
board which shall have final say
over purchases and sales of gov
ernment bonds by the reserve
banks.
In addition, it makes permanent
the temporary plan of bank depisit
insurance, adopted early in the
administration.
The measure is in for bitter, tug
and-pull battle, with conservative
opponents raillying around the di
minutive figure of Senator Glass, a
co-author of the original federal
reserve act, and a former secretary

Significant changes have taken
place also in the fielg of agricul
ture, The administration claim is
that a billion dollars was added to
the farmers’ purchasing power last

This reduction campaign has been
applied to wheat, cotton, corn, hogs
and other commodities anq been
supplemented by marketing agree
ments for milk, and a nuber of per
ishable crops, roughly comparable
