A special message from the White House urged speedy
enactment of legislation providing stricter regulation and
enforcement of th« pure food and drug laws in order to
protect the “majority of honest business men" from "evad-
ers and chiselers." Just before receipt of th- message the
Senate Commerce Committe had reported favorably on
the C ipeland bill, said to bear administration approval.re-
vising existing 29-year-old food and drug laws.
Stale Finance Committee heard Clarence Darrow
charge the NRA with ruining the Ji tie business man be-
cause of its tendanev toward price-fixing. He said his
committee had reached this conclusion last year after in-
vestigation of 35 codes and 3,275 individual cases. On the\
other hand, Sidney.Hillman, NIRB official, declared aboli-.,
tion of the NPA would make the unemployment situation "Business does not stand still, i

of Senator Borah’s proposal to restore anti-trust laws.

ENATE passage of the President’s huge'works-relief
bill —the largest appropriation bill ever passed by;
Congress—by a vote of 68 to 16 after two months debate
cleared the way lor consideration of other majoi adminis-
tration measures. Only six Democrats and ten Republi-
cans voted against it and although the senate made var-
ious changes in the measure it still gave the President a
free hand in spending the $4,880,000,000 to end direct re-
lief and to make work for 3,500,000 of the unemployed at.
a “security wage.” Funds were earmarked for general
purposes but permitted shifting of 20 per cent of $800,000-
000 from one project to another.
Among the amendments were those extending the
Federal Emergency Relief Administration for one year
and the Public Works Administration and Civilian Con-
servation Corps for two years each; requirement that all
persons appointed under the measure at a salary of $5,000!
