5yo s who want to scrap NRA forth
with were looking forward to his
testimony hopefully. Ten months
ago, in a report which brought a
furious scrap with Hugh S Johnson.
Darrow told the president that
some NRA codes tended to foster
monopoly and crush the "little fel
low ” Johnson replied that Dar

commission had burst into the open
Friday after the two agencies placed
clashing reports about the steel
Industry's price svstem on Presi
dent Roosevelt's desk. The presi
dent had asked a joint report.
The trade commission report
strongly recommended that “price
fixing” be dropned from the steel
code and left 'open to legal attack
on the ground it violates the anti
trust laws."
The commission said that con
tinuation Qf “price-fixing" In the
steel and other codes would mean
“a substantial possibility of a new
and early deoression" which might
have “radical implications ”
The NR A report, which likewise
concerned the “basing point" price
system used for vears in the in
dustry and incorporated in its code,
suggested a milder course.
It proposed increasing the num
ber of points from which steel
freight rates are figured so that
nurchasers would pay freight
charges from TPOlnts closer to them
than at present. NRA added that
the '■hange should be brought about
slowlv enough to avoid unsetting
the Industry. Its renort denied that
the present r»rlce controls in the
steel code were necessarily price
fixing.
