Ordinarily many months elapse between preliminary negotiations and open hearings. But in this instance the industry WAS given only two weeks' notice, and will therefore appear unprepared to combat government arguments. Note: "Big Steel" must bow to W-H scales or lose out on the hundreds of millions of dollars worth of steel contracts in the current recovery program. Simultaneously Senator La Follette launched his attack on the alleged anti -labor policies of Tom Girdler's "Little Steel" combine. The investigation is designed to discredit.

The principal privacies which these nations' spies seek out involve two of the most modern avistian Improvements the military world has seen for not seen) in recent years a perfect bomb sight and retractable landing gear. They have spared no pains to obtain picture: or blueprints of those inventions.

During the recent air maneuvers at New York Japanese photographer WaS caught while chooting picture of the famous landing gear, He wasn't arrested, and the case never reached the newspapers. They simply destroyed his negatives and let him go. At the army flying field at Dayton there have been several ininor but unpublicized cases of inside sabotage. An army pamphlet describing the bomb sight in general terms is missing. though the 106s not serious.

Several ships in re-. cent maneuvers have developed unexpected "bugs" in mechanical parts vital to fighting operations. So far no essential secret has fallen into enemy hands. But the realization ct Washington that Japan and Germany would tamper with our military machine provokes uneasiness and resentment here. CONVICTION Secretary Ickes has evolved simple but slick scheme to convince states and cites that they should not employ lobbyists to rush through their applications for PWA money.

He is making gullible mayors and governors pay the bill for their foolishness. Under system of 45 per cent grants (gifts) and 55 per cent Jans the PWA hands over outright $45,000 on $100,000 project and lends the balance. The same ratio, of course, applies for larger amounts. But in order to kill the lobby came Mr. Ickes Imposes financial penalty on communities which employ them.

If the project has not been undertaken, he cancels it on show of evidence that special pleader wangled lee from the applicant. If the venture has been started, he cannot afford to cripple it. What he does in that case is to add to the city's or state's share the exact amount which they have paid to the lobbyset. Thus, in the case mentioned above, the local community would have to pay $45.500 if the private fee were $500. and the government contribution would be that much "Mebbe they don't believe me when I tell 'em not to hire lobbysays Harold.

"But money talks, and that's my argument from now on." Mr. Ickes hates a sucker! New York BY JAMIES McMULLIN COMPROMISE way wage parleys will bog down in futility.

MOMENTOUS- -The solution outlined above would represent a definite step in the direction of wage -automatic adjustment of wages up or down to conform to changing business conditions.

We recently reported that this principle has already been adopted in the copper industry and is being sertously discussed behind the scene in the steel industry. The steel and railroad labor situations parallel each other closely in several respects. In both cases, managements are trying hard to cut labor costs and unions are going through the motions of a stiff -backed by the governmentto hold their gains of last year. Both steel and rail union officials are more "reasonable" in private than in public, and concede that adjustments will probably have to be made unless there is a sharp improvement in business. And in both industries backstage negotiations are moving towards acceptance of a flexible wage formula.

Insiders see this potentially one of the most monentous developin American labor history. Agreement by managements and on definite basis that wages shall go up when business volume rises and vice versa would eliminate the greatest single cause of industrial friction. This in turn would benefit our whole economy by minimizing losses from strikes. steel and the railroads set the pace: it's a safe bet that many other industries will quickly fall in line. COLLAPSE -Despite the Nazi rigid censorship imposed the government, New York leaders get word from reliable German sources that Germany's interial economic situation is approaching crisis.

Last week's temporary slump in the German securities market, quickly "corrected" by government control, was a significant straw in the wind. The basic trouble is that Dr. Hjalmer Schacht's ingenious "barter system" of foreign trade is breaking down. This system has worked as follows: Germany would buy from Brazil, for example, huge quantities of coffee- far more than she could possibly consume at home. Instead of paying for these imports in cash, she would pay in! convertible only into German goods-so in effect the transaction wAs swap of merchandise.

Then Germany would take the surplus coffee and sell it to some I other country on the same basis for iron or wheat or oil. Thus Schacht was able to acquire essential raw materials with a minimum of gold and foreign exchange. But now the countries which have been bartering with Germapy are glutted with German goods and are shutting down on this type of trade. So one of the artificial props that has sustained the German economic structure is on the point of collapse. It is possible that Britain may come to the rescue -with creditat a price which will imporve the prospects for continued European peace.

During the school year about four -fifths of the 179 puptis enrolled in the kindergarten classes of Central, Newport, Norrie and Sleight schools were immunized against smali pox and diphtheria.

The report stresses the need in this county, which ranks the highest in the state in tuberculosis fatalities, for early discovery and interception of the disease. "The tuberculin testing program in our schools is important." the purse stated. "It helps us pick out those children who have been infected by the disease as shown by their positive reaction.

Report is Coacheded Audiometer tests hearing of 2,593 pupils of the Ironwood school system showed 440 cases of defective hearing, in 424 of which observation was recommended.

The tests showed 35 pupils in the grade schools with marked impairment of hearing. The report concludes: "In addition to the inspection of teeth done by the purse in selected grades, Dr. Coons inspected the teeth of the children in all grades and rated them as to cleanliness. "The speech clinic held this year aD interesting experience. There were about 200 children selected and the parents of all were contacted and history of the nutritional and physical development of each child obtained.
