Will Attempt to Draft Laws
, Within Constitution,
j, Berry Says.
BY JOHN C. HENRY.
Committed irrevocably to the propo
sition of finding a basis for minimum
wage, maximum hour and fair trade
practice legislation, the Council for
Industrial Progress still will attempt
to draft all its desired legislation
within the framework of the Constitu
tion as it now' stands, it was stated to
day by Maj. George L. Berry. Federal
co-ordinator for industrial co-opera
tion.
Failing in attempts to keep such
legislation within those limits, the
council as a w'hole will be asked to ap
prove a campaign on behalf of a
constitutional amendment, Berry con
tinued.
Significant in this respect was the
further revelation by Berry that a
representative of the management
group in the council yesterday pro
posed a resolution committing the
council in support of a constitutional
amendment. The resolution was with
drawn. however, at Berry's request
until the Correlating Committee of the
council has an opportunity to go over
the entire legislative program and de
termine whether it can be so con
structed as not to run afoul of the
Supreme Court's interpretation of the
Constitution.
Berry Denies Reports.
Berry took occasion today to deny
reports that he might resign to ap
pease "big business."
"The only man who can return me
to the ranks is the President of the
United States.” he said. "The Steel
Institute wouldn't come here to meet
with labor if Myron Taylor himself
Were the co-ordinator."
Berry denied, however, that the
Council's actions in favor of legisla
tion similar to the late N. I. R. A. had
been inspired by the White House.
Most definite of the regulative pro
posals, later to be whipped into leg
islative form, was that of the Com

mittee on Fair Trade Practices, which
the council approved late yesterday.
Model Act Is Proposed.
Dealing with business and industrial
evils In terms of "fair and unfair"
competition, this report suggests
enactment of a model fair competi
tion act which would ban not only
misrepresentation in advertising and
merchandising but would extend its
i prohibition to “unjust or unreason
; able wage or hour standards or the
\ employment of child labor."
For administration of such an act,
! the council proposed creation of a unit
! of the Federal Trade Commission as
one solution, but of greater interest
was the suggestion for establishment
j of an independent industrial court to
hear and adjudicate all complaints of
violation. Such a court, it was pro
posed further, would have the power of
i issuing permanent and temporary In
junctions. Labor's approval of this
feature was conditioned upon it being
allowed representation in such a court.
From the council's Committee on
Anti-Trust Laws came a report also
calling for prohibition by law of simi
lar malpractices of business and a
recommendation that a special ap
pellate court be established to hear
appeals from administrative agencies
handling these laws. This report
likewise was adopted.
Production Control Opposed.
In more general terms, the coun
cil approved a policy report which
places them on record in opposition
to production control, in favor of mini
mum wage and overtime rates, in op
position to unfair competitive prac
tices and in favor of creation of a
permanent advisory economic council.
The council approved, also, a reso
lution calling for a study of the na
tional. State and local tax structures
with a view to eventual overhauling
of all.
In addition, it urged the taking of
an employment census every five years
and setting up definitions and stand
ards bv which such a census should
be taken.
To correlate all these recommenda
tions and weld them into legislative
shape which might lead to their ac
ceptance by Congress, the council
named a special committee to carry
on through the coming session of Con
gress.
Berry Offers to Quit.
Referring to those representatives
of industry who have declined to par
ticipate in the council’s meetings,
George L. Berry, Federal co-ordinator
for industrial co-operation, in a radio
address last night declared himself
not desirous of continuing in his office
if that should be the reason for their
failure to co-operate.
"They disliked the President and
they disliked organized labor," he
said. "Now' they don’t dislike the
President, if we are to read the news
papers. They want to co-operate.
But in order for them to co-operate,
the President must get himself a new
co-ordinator. Well, if it helps to save
their faces • * • I am not so vain as
to want to be co-ordinator and thereby
abridge progress.”

WISE, V*.. December 12.—Counsel
for Edith Maxwell looked to decisions
by Judge Ewa T. Carter today to de
termine whether the comely defendant
would take the stand in her second
trial on charges of murdering her
father.
M. J. Pulton, one of her attorneys,
said if the defense were upheld on two
of its motions it would rely on the
testimony of two physicians, who he
said would declare Trigg Maxwell died
of “natural causes.''
The defense objections were raised
when the State for the first time yes
terday linked Edith with the death of
her father, and attempted to place in
the record of this trial her testimony
in the previous proceedings, when she
received a 25-vear prison sentence that
was set aside by the State Supreme
Court of Appeals.
Commonwealth's Attorney Fred B.
Greear's move to put former Deputy
Sheriff R. S. Hubbard on the stand to
recount Edith’s testimony at the
former trial brought from the defense
the objection that to admit such evi
dence would be in effect to compel the
defendant to testify against herself,
contrary to her constitutional rights.

Prelates Hope Pontiff Will
Be Able to Give Usual
Yule Talk.
Er l he Awoelsted Press
VATICAN CITY, December 12
Pope Plus XI recovered sufficiently
today from his attack of paralysis
for Vatican prelates to express hope
he would be able to deliver his usual
Christmas eve allocution.
Although his attendants were en
couraged by the holy father’s progress
against the attack which forced him
to bed a week ago today, they feared
he would not be able to participate
in the customary ritual of which his
Christmas address is a part.
The holy father was assisted Into
a private chapel adjoining the sick
room again this morning to hear
mass celebrated.
Vatican quarters said the Pope
would probably recount his year-end
“Joys and sorrows" for his Christmas
eve talk through a mlchrophone at his
bedside.
Otherwise they expressed the fear
-I 1 ■ ■ 1
he would have to designate some one
else to speak for him.
After the Pope's physician, Dr.
Amanti Milani, visited him today at
an early hour It was said he might
be lifted into an armchair again.
Reliable sources, however, described
as "hopeless,” at least for some time
to come, any idea he might attempt
to walk.
The Pope talked for nearly an hour
yesterday with the Archbishop of
Toledo, Spain. It was the most
prolonged activity he has engaged in
since his illness.

is expanding rapidly.

but plenty of time and the
best of materials to make a
brew of universal appeal*
