Johnson. Both codes were nearlng completion, NRA officials said, and at behind-the-scenes conferences the administration was seeking an agreement which would add charters of these two major industries to the recovery lockstep. Meanwhile, the Cabinet Advisory Board of the recovery administration, decided as a step to protect the public against profiteering to request all Industries now operating under codes to submit Information on recent price Increases. This decision marked the first of the long planned moves by Johnson to keep tab on rising prices and prevent them soaring upward faster than the purchasing power of the nation can be stimulated. First of the special trade agreement negotiations between United States and other eountries under President Roosevelt's broad program to stimulate International business opened today at the state department.

Eyes of diplomats from other nations centred on the discussions for indications as to what to expect, when their representatives talk over bilateral agreements with this country.

R. C. Lang, of the tugboat Ehellco, is a mystery no longer.

Ernest Rogers, of the B. C. Sugar Refinery, identified the boat today as his property. It had been moored at an anchorage at Bowen Island and had evidently broken its moorings and drifted away. In the boat were found a child's small sailboat and a salmon trolling line.

It was feared by police that the drifting craft marked another drowning tragedy.

"Quebec has such legislation and it Is very effective." "How many people must be ll rd at a crossing before it is protected?" "We would like to protect every crossing, but what can be done without money?" Since the fund started, said the Chief Commissioner, $4,903,273 had been spent protecting crossings. The Board administered the fund, and made orders after Investigating and on recommendation of Its engineers Ninety per cent of the applications for protection came from the municipalities. OWE MONEY TO RAILWAYS Formerly the railways took much of the Initiative.

"We have made no orders for subways or other major protection since January, 1932," said Judge Fullerton. "The Government pays its share, but the railways and the municipalities have no money to pay their share. Unless the Government a special contribution we cannot" do anything." The funds debt is owing to the railways and municipalities who have proceeded with works a considerable time past, and paid the fund's share as well as their own. The Railway Commission is trying to get these debts paid and this uses up the annual $200,000. B.

AND TIZZY LISH Anyone in Vancouver who has listened to Al Pearce and His Gang over the radio and their numbers are legion will doubly enjoy the opportunity afforded tills week of seeing and hearing them in person at the Auditorium, where they opened with a combined broadcast and stage program Monday afternoon, followed by a screamingly funny variety show In the evening. In a medley of mirth, music and jollity, these famous radio entertainers won the hearts of large audiences at both shows. There is not a dull moment in their program. Good music, with beautiful voices harmoniously blended in old and new melodies, skits, clowning, gagging and dancing, round out a bill that has scarcely ever been equalled in Vancouver, and one that it is a real pleasure to enjoy. They are more than enjoyable in their radio offerings, but seeing and hearing them in person far exceeds one's expectations of a good time.

CHAIN BROADCAST In the afternoon over 1000 eager spectators were treated to two and a half hours of entertainment. First hour was broadcast from here to KOMO, Seattle, and over the coastal network of N.B.C. Following this hour the rest of the time was given to the regular stage program that the Pearce Gang has offered up and down the coast. After the program had been underway a few minutes, Mayor Louis D. Taylor greeted the Gang on behalf of Vancouver.

Al Pearce thanked ti! Mayor for coming to hear them ana said it showed Vancouver really appreciated their entertainment. He was very grateful. BRILLIANT PERFORMERS Entertainers were even better than expected. Al Pearce was full of fun, songs gags. Lord Bilgewater and his riddles had the people "in fits," and Morey Amsterdam, "Hello, you lucky people," parodied prominent radio stars and had them virtually rolling In the aisles.

And there was Frankie McCormlck, brilliant 12-year-old vocalist. The Inimitable Mabel Todd moaned her stuff and delighted with her blues singing. The Three Cheers and the Rhythmettes pleased, as did Andy Andrews, Tony Romano and his guitar, Carlyle Bennett and Cal Pearce. Audience "and actors as well were full of pep, anxious to have a good time. Al Pearce claimed it was the work initiated during the depression to prevent lay offs.
