Johnson, having attempted to allay discontent among his own NRA employees by promising to correct "injustices," today gave greater attention to dissatisfaction with local administration of the recovery program.

Employees in Johnson's office planned a mass meeting tonight nt American Federation of Labor headquarters to make vocal their demands for shorter hours, more money, and reclassification of grades.
