In addition clover is said to be pretty well frozen out. The tops of wheat are nipped, too, but the roots of wheat and grass are in fair shape. Much top soil has been washed away "and damage has been done to hillside fields by the sudden thaw of the heaviest snows Pennsylvania has experienced in many years.

'GOLD FISH BOWL' POLICY DITCHED UNDER NEW RULING (Continued from page one)' This limited the copies in existence to no more than a dozen or so, but the order was found after deputy administrators began answering newsmen's queries with the formula: "You'll have to ask Mr. Lawsbn about that." (William V. Lawson, one-time Chicago newspaperman, is head of the press publicity section at NRA). Johnson, who, in speeches denouncing the idea of censorship frequently has called newspapermen to witness that NRA business is conducted openly "as in a goldfish bowl" recently has made known displeasure at some accounts of NRA doings. He has' held but one press conference since the end of February when a series of officially-invited public criticism meetings, code authority sessions and automobile strike negotiotions began.

Since the first when rules prohibited contacts between subordinate officials and reporters, the latter have had virtually free run of the organization. A- few deputies this' week have continued the usual practipe of giving explanatory information direct to newsmen. However, in the division headed by Administrator Kenneth M. Simpson, handling metals, mining, shipbuilding, automobiles, conversation ith reporters has been limited to the state of the w-eather and very little of that: News originating this division was believed brought down the State Agriculture Dep't to Take Stock of Damage by Sub-Zero Weather HARRISBURO, March 29 VP) The State department of agricul ture la taking stock of the damage done to Pennsylvania fields, and or chards by the sub-aero temperatures and terrific winds of recent months, Farmers in some part of the Stat report that the winter just ended was the worst killer in 30 years. They estimate hundreds of thousands of dollars damage caused by the blizzards, and express the fear that the winds and prolonged rains of the spring will cause further loss.

Pennsylvania's orchards are in no condition to withstand more punishment, they assert. Inquiries are being made by the department of agriculture to determine the extent of the damage. Early reports said Pennsylvania's peach crop virtually was ruined. However, later surveys Indicate that the damage was not as heavy as first feared, although fifty pel cent of the crop was nipped In some of the major fruit growing counties. Lycoming County farmers report that winter wheat and hay stands were heavily damaged by freezing a- 4 MM 0LLYW00D GOSSIP Intimate Glimpses and Inside Stuff on the Movie Colony By DAN THOMAS HOLLTWOOD.

However, in my preynt of mind, all I need New strikes and threats of strikes in northern Ohio brought feverish efforts by Federal conciliators to avert walkouts and end others al ready called. Striking taxicab drivers and company representatives in New York conferred three hours without settling their dispute. Proposed amendments to the Wagner labor board bill, providing for company-promoted unions, were attacked by the American Federation of Labor and the Socialist party public affairs committee. Last, and probably least, the heating engineering department of the General Candy Company at Milwaukee walked out.

Although the company employs only one heating engineer, the International Union of Operating Engineers will try to settle his differences with the company. He wants shorter hours. WASHINGTON, March 29 (A) A subcommittee of northern Appalachian soft coal operators, seeking to avert a strike, has agreed to demands of the United Mine Workers for a seven hour day and an increase of the basic daily wage to $5. If this action, taken yesterday, is ratified by the general wage conference, it means the end of the eight-hour day in mines producing more than 70 per cent of the nation's soft coal. Whether the rest of the industry will follow suit is expected to be decided by the current conference An effort will be made to place before the general conference today the final draft of the new wage schedule proposed by the subcommittee.

A maze of rates and classifications had to be revised first, however. Two groups of operators in the Appalachian region refused to concur in the subcommittee's action. One, the Smokeless Appalachian group of southern West Virginia, has been negotiating separately with the union. The other, the Fairmount group, split with the Main body over elimination of the-) 24-cent wage differential it had en joyed over the Pittsburgh district. COUNTY YOUTH MEETS DEATH IN CYCLE CRASH (Continued from page one) tracted by a noise which he thought to be the backfire of a vehicle.

He said that the cycle was then wabbling and traveling at high speed. Summers started toward the highway, the coroner leaned, but en route a building obstructed his view and he did not see small catapulted from the cycle. Mrs. Bertha Robertson, who also lives near the scene, reported to the patrol that she heard the roar of a motor and saw something "streak'' past on the road and then heard a crash. A cable guard fence is erected along the side of the road where the accident happened but Small's body was found lying clear of this.

The body was removed to the paternal home.
