Washington, June 24 (UP)— The first week of administration
National ‘Recovery Act brought substnutial progress. But sev-
fl ftorn.V* problems, notably those of price-fixing and adjustment
f^Wrflieting trade intereata, were thrust today into the path of the
Mk-Bc*creating economic America.
*rrln-the brewy vernacular of Administrator' Hugh 8. Johnson,
jeee problems were “pineapples.” The big pineapple thus far is
coal inchwtry. The chain-store piol itin piomises t ► htt^nie a
sap pie of equal size.
■iness men and industrialists,

beginning to discover the immen-
J.'.dity of the recovery program—a re-
-building of America’s entire business
[•'structure. A maze of cross-threads,
Kwoven through the various industries,
t must be shown before the recovery
’ program can become operative.
£ The chain-store problem was being
g worked out here by executives of the
. various chain systems — groceries,
L drugs, shoes,, automobile accessories,
n iMtaurants and the like.
.The ehaln-store issue involves all of
L America’s purchasers, since develop-
r ment of a code dCYalr competition in-
gj VNves not only the chains but the in-
' < dependent stores which compete with
, "them. The oM war between the chains
K and the independents is to be fought
I over agataJL < ' •
Industries want a price-fixing agree-
;‘ ment so that under-selling may be
Ft prevented. Johnson thus far refused to
^-discuss price-fixing although it was
7 permissable qnder the law. He stress-
; «d two things as of more importance
^--increased Wages and shortened hours
of work. He put the emphasis upon a
’ * speedy return of millions of workers to
[- (tome form of employment which wil’
trJporease America's purchasing power
Independent store operators saw in
('the new law a chance to compete on a
more even basis with the chains. They
; hoped, the United Press was informed,
to do this ‘by eliminating what they
[ contended Were unfair trade discounts
’ to the chain stores.

can be approved by President Roose-
into operation, it must
