CHECK OF CASUALTIES IMPOSSIBLE SAN SALV ADORE, June 9.

(UP) More than 1000 persons were believed killed tonight in the hurricane stricken San Salvadore District. Torrential rains hampered and almost halted relief work. Districts to the west and north of Teguciagalpa, capital of Honduras, suffered the greatest damage in that country, also struck by hurricane. Santa Rose Copan was imperiled by HURRICANE flnorls. Prncrpssn was almost entirely inundated.

Banana plantations In the Santiago area were under water and fears were expressed for Choluteca, in the South. Com munication lines were down. PIMIENTA ALMOST 1 WIPED OUT BY FLOOD Pimienta was almost wiped out by floods along the Ulu River. Hundreds of head of cattle were drowned. Water was from six to 15 feet deep near Vila Nueva.

Many small towns in Salvador were wiped out and, with communications disruped, estimates of the high casualties were impossible. Authorities feared typhoid and dysentery epidemics unless the heavy rain stopped. Troops made desperate effort to keep the road from here to the airport open, but little headway was made under the heavy down pour. In the 24 hours following the storm, 25 Inches of rain fell at the airport. COMMUNICATIONS COMPLETELY BROKEN Efforts to set up skeleton communications were practically without success.

Some telephones were restored between the capital and the army air base at Ilopango, but interference made them almost use less, rne Lrovernment radio operated feebly. Villages were wiped out in the departments of La Paz, Cabanas, Cuscutlan, Usulatan, San Vincente and San Miguel, the hardest hit. Lake Ilopango rose 30 feet, demolishing buildings along the shore, including the auto club. Hurricane Lashes Yucatan Peninsula MEXICO CITY, June 9.

Heavy damage was done in the 10 END STRIKE Scheme Drafted for Settlement in Case Hiring Hall Supervision Is Rejected Project for Control of Dock Employment Previously Refused, Declares Union The United States Government, which already has stepped into the coastwide strike of 12.000 longshoremen by offering to supervise hiring halls, is formulating new plan to bring about peace, it was learned 3estorday. Details of the latest move by Washington to deal with the situation were not available, bnt Dean Henry F. Grady, a member of President Roosevelt's mediation board In San Franeisro, said the National Labor Board is studying another settlement proposal. Grady explained that Labor Board officials notified him By telephone from Washington that the new plan would be offered ihould the longshoremen and employers refuse to accept the hiring hall supervision offer.

NEW TLAN TO BE SENT HERE WHEN FINISHED "I was advised that when the plan is' fully formulated, it will be transmitted here without delay," Grady said. With the strike embarked on its second month, and coast shipping in a state of siege, William J. Lewis, San Francisco district president of the International Longshoremen's Association, declared "the strike lines are as solid as they have ever been." V. Other I. A.

officials indicated the attitude of the union toward I the Government's proposal to aid in the operation of hiring halls, by, reiterating that the "triple "partnership" of shippers, stevedores and Department of Labor officials was rejected months ago bv the longshoremen's convention ITNION TO DECIDE ON UNLOADING BRIDGE STEEL Members of the I. L. A. will de-tide today whether they will relax strike regulations long enough to unload steel for the Bay Bridge from the Atlantic City when that steamer arrives from the east coast tomorrow. Part of the steel consignment consists of the cable saddles for the main bridge towers and a delay in placing these would mean the halting of work for many men employed on the bridge.

Li At Portland, where he is in conference with strikers and shippers, Joseph P. Ryan, president of the I. L. was quoted in dispatches as stating he could not hazard a guess as to when the strike might end.

"Some of the most difficult issues are being soothed out." Ryan added that he did not ex- pert to request a membership vote on the "triple partnership" hiring hall proposal at the present time. "It is my belief that there will be Government participation in all the dock problems-, rather than supervision of one particular problem," he said.

June 9.

U.R The administration's efforts to end the threat of a strike in America's vast steel industry broke up tonight in a cross-fire of bitter charges and "counter-charges by union leaders and recovery administration officials. The net result was union rejection of General Hugh S. Johnson's peace plan in a scathing letter to President Roosevelt and. in reply, a statement by the recovery administrator saying he had done his best. Members of the Rank and Kile Committee of the Amalgamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers issued a formal statement after their lengthy conferences with Johnson collapsed and they had announced that a decision on projected strike would be made at Pittsburgh June 14.

JOHNSON SORROWFUL RATHER THAN ANGRY. The tone of Johnson's reply was one of sorrow rather than of anger in response to an open letter of the union chieftain's demarrding that the President toss Johnson's proposal "in the waste basket." "They simply refused what was offered them," Johnson said, after the rank and file members of the union had written their letter to the President. "Why, the fact is that I offered these men an opportunity to name a committee or five to sit with me through Saturday afternoon and all day Sunday, if necessary, to work this problem out." the recovery administrator continued. "They refused this. "My consolation in the matter is that even though they conceded the complete absence of any authority to do or agree to anything, we went to the ultimate of our authority to do the best we could i for them.

"I hope the men they represent will understand this." STATEMENT NOT SIGNED BY AUTHORIZED OFFICIAL. Johnson said the sizzling letter to Roosevelt, complaining about the non-settlement of the projected steel strike, had not been signed by an? "authorized official" of the Amalgamated Association of Iron. Steel and Tin Workers. The men who did sign It, members of the rank and file commit tee of the union, apparently do not understand the law, Johnson added. "My efforts were altogether confined to trying to explain to these men what they could do to obtain the benefits of the recovery act," the general said.

"They did not seem to be inter-' ested in having this done for them." Johnson called the plan he presented to the union a "revolutionary advance in the attitude of the steel industry." FACTS REVERSED, DECLARES JOHNSON. He said the union men "miscon ceived the lights and duties of this administration." and said they had reversed the fads when trtw charged Joh rlsorf with atte'fttrj ng toti gtlten "company union chains." "They can get their rights and I think they know that," Johnson said, "but they cannot utilize the government to force a particular form of organization on any group of employees unless that group themselves choose it. "When they say they had to reject traps set 4or them they do a crass injustice to an administration which stands ready at all times to insure them or to any labor group, to the full extent of Federal authority, any right guaranteed to them under the law." Despite all the arguments and "bitter words" Johnson said he was inclined to sympathize with the steel men. UNWARRANTED ACTION BY MEN IS CHARGED. ''They are" up against adroit legal piloting which seems to leave them always on the wrong side of a court argument, and, because they rush inadvisedly into unwarranted action, constantly find themselves frustrated," Johnson said.

"In this situation we have offered them our help and this particular group of young leaders have re jected it. "I do not willingly believe that the men they represent would willingly follow them In this. I would like to help them. "Their open letter to the President is very unfair. They could have gotten much in Washington.

They simply refused what was offered them which was the very limit of what lawfully could be offered them," THREAT TO USE ONLY MEANS LEFT IS MADE Workers told the President thej had lost faith in his administration, that Johson was "poll-parroting, as usual," and that it was useless for them to "waste any more time In Washington in the National run around, rejecting traps set for us They said that they were sorry they could not join Roosevelt on his week-end cruise, that they believed (Continued on Page 5A, Col. 2) GROUP Regulations Changed on Way From NRA Office, Holds Report of Committee Bitter And ness Attack on Monopoly Difficulties of Busi-Firms Is Alleged By 17VI.E A. BROOKOVER fCnpvrieht. 1134. bv United Press.

WASHINGTON. June 9 Clarence Darrow's famous Blue Eagle Review Board tossed another bombshell into the Administration's lap today by reporting to President Boosevelt that the retail store code signed by him was not the one accepted by the industry. The second Darrow report, it was learned, charges that the retail code was changed in transit from NRA headquarters to the White House. President Roosevelt carried the second report of the committee headed by Darrow on his week-end cruise aboard the Yacht Sequoia. He expected to study it over the week-end.

The. Darrow Board's first report. a bitter attack on parts of the Na tional Recovery Administration's work, concerned itself chiefly with alleged monopolistic tendencies of the NRA. THOMPSON REFUSES TO SIGN REPORT W. O.

Thompson, former law partner of Darrow, vas the only member who refused to sign the second report. He would not sign because he believes the review work is aiming toward better devices for control of business a procedure which he thinks is futile. The second report denounces failure to place small business men on rode authorities, flays allocation of production In the cement Industry, condemns certain provisions of the lumber rode, and reiterates the hoard's previous condemnation of price fixing, It was learned. Tn connection with its report on the cement industry. Darrow's board pointed out that the large plants had to operate at capacity before smaller compel itors could expand their production.

Darrow -said that the code authority was controlled by the large interests making it almost impossible for the smaller concerns Vo obtain an equitable share of the available business. CODES FOR IS INDUSTRIES REVIEWED The second' report reviewed the codes for 13 industries in addition to the eight reported upon previously. Only code to -escape vigorous criticism was that for the petroleum industry, of which Secretary of Interior Harold L. Ickes is controlling authority. The Board complimented him for his able administration.

Scathingly the Board dissected the retail code. "Evidence shows the retail rode sinned by the President was not the one accepted by the industry," said the second report. Only two parts of the retail rode received Ihe endorsement of Darrow and his fellows: They were: 1 The loss leader provisions, which were found "really desirable." They prohibit selling goods below cost, to attract customers. -Mark-up provisions, which add invoice' or delivery costs to insure payment of code wages. The Board attacked price fixing in the lumber code, as well as pro; vision for uniform cost accounting, which, they said, was unfair to small mill operators.

FIRMS COULD SELL LESS AND STILL MAKE PROFIT "Many small operators claim they could sell for one-half the lowest reasonable cost as specified in the code and still make a deent profit," the report explained. It condemned the cost item for replacement of trees which have been felled to make lumber, claiming that the consumer thereby must pay for replacement of private property. The report also attacked the practice of charging consumers "phantom freight rates" calculated upon ''basing points" from which products are billed. The second report recommended abolition of these "basing points" In both the lumber and cement codes, saying that they fostered collusion in prices. At the moment of finishing the second report, Review Board members were advised that Administrator Johnson had published a new price policy, which puts rigid limitation on price fixing and open price posting in future codes, and recommends steps be taken to amend existing codes accordingly.

PROTESTS FILED BY BUSINESS GROUPS Charles Edward Russell, ardent Socialist and Darrow adviser, who wrote the preamble to each of the reports, paid his compliments to the "congenial gentlemen" of NRA who adopted the Review Board's previous recommendations on price control. Johnson declared the new policy would not Impose changes on existing codes, except where they were negotiated with the industries by code authorities. The policy announcement has caused widespread protest from business groups which are satisfied with their codes aa they bow stand. Through the special Intervention of Congressman Albert E. Carter, Louis II.

Conilaint Alleging Missing Ticket Agent Short $8500 In Accounts Is Issued SAN FRANCISCO.
