CONFERENCE TOLD PLANNED ECONOMY NEED OF FUTURE Silver Bay Speaker Says Return of Cut-Throat Competition Not Wanted. The logical outcome of the meas- ures under which the country is now attacking present economic conditions is permanent long range economic study and planning, de- clared Howe E. Coffin, pioneer leader in the automotive and air- plane industry, speaking at the 16th annual conference on indus- trial relations at Silver Bay yester- day. Mr. Coffin, who is now Chairman of Southeastern Cottons. Inc., said that industrialists everywhere want to go through with the present un- dertaking and that they "do not want to go back to the happy-go- lucky days of cut-throat competi- tion -and entirely unplanned economy." "An\unfortunate aspect is that the textile industry Is trying to serve two masters," he said, "hav- ing to operate on the one hand un- der NRA and on the other under the farm relief act. We need con- centrated authority in Washington so we can get out of the zone of uncertainty. He asserted that manufacturers' selling prices of textile commodi- ties have practically doubled under the stimulating effect of the NRA and farm relief act "We are fortunate in now having in the White House a man of con- structive vision and decision, who will not hesitate to make modifica- tion in the industrial program when the necessity for such action becomes clear, Mr. Coffin said^ DOUBLE FUNERAL FOR VICTIMS OF DETROIT MISHAP James T.

Measure Succumbs as Result of Bitter Partisan Strife. Albany, Aug. 25 (Special)—Bitter partisan strife, which among other things resulted in the death of the Barge Canal Bill in which Rensse- laer, Albany and other counties of eastern New York were deeply ln- trested, marked the closing of the extraordinary session of the Legis- lature last night. Most of the major pieces of legis- lation were accomplished during the final week of the five weeks' session. Refusal of the Democratic Senate to approve a Monroe County bill, described by its supporters' (mostly Republicans) as an emergency relief measure, led to the killing of canal legislation, which provided that New York State set up a revolving fund of $10,000,000 to begin work on the deepening of the canal, this amount to be paid back from an appropriation of $27,500,000 which the Federal Government would turn over under the National Recovery Linked with the canal project was a proposal that the Federal authorities appropriate $2,190,000 for the deepening of the Hudson River from Albany to Troy. Whether the latter project will be undertaken now remains to be seen. The original canal measure provid- ed for the improvement of the canal from Waterford to Oswego, but this was amended in the Sen- ate to extend the improvement to Buffalo. A further amendment con- tained the original provision, but left to the discretion of the Board of Army Engineers the decision whether to improve the entire sys- tem. Sponsors of the measure predict- ed passage of the bill early yester- day afternoon and preparations were under way for a long debate, but adjournment of the Assembly before the measure was received from the Upper House precluded any action. Assemblyman John P. Hayes of Albany attempted to have the canal plan brought up on the floor as the Republican Assembly, prepar- ing for adjournment, slaughtered several Democratic proposals in re- taliation for the Democratic Sen- ates action in killing the Monroe County bill. Assemblyman Hayes demanded that the measure be brought before the House, but Speaker Joseph A. McGinnies up- held the contention of Assembly- man Horace Stone that all motions were out of order. That ended the canal bill. * Improvement Not Dead. Declaring that he was "amazed" by the failure of the New York Assembly to pass the bill for the $27,500,000 improvement to the Barge Canal by the Federal Gov- ernment, Governor Lehman was quoted by the Associated Press to- day with stating that in his opinion the project is nevertheless "by no means dead." The bill for the improvement was passed by the Senate but was held up In the Republican controlled Assembly. The United States Army engineers have approved the deep- ening of the Barge Canal from 12 feet to 14 feet and the raising of the bridges between the Hudson River and Oswego, the cost to be paid by the Federal Government. Governor Lehman said he be- lieved the defeat of the Republican Monroe County bond bill was in some measure responsible for the defeat of the canal measure. "I do not know why the bill did not pass," Governor Lehman said, "except that it appears the Repub- licans were disappointed over the defeat of their Monroe County bond bill and decided to hold up some Democratic measures." The bond bill, sponsored by As- semblyman Haskell H. Marks and Senator Fred J. Slater, both Mon- roe Republicans, would have per- mitted Monroe County towns or the county itself to issue bonds repre- senting unpaid taxes. The Demo- crats defeated it in the Senate af- ter it had passed the Assembly, claiming it was intended to cover up the "Irondequoit scandal" in Monroe a few years ago. Marcus D. Russell Camp Celebrates Convention Honor Marcus D. Russell Camp, United Spanish War Veterans, celebrated the awarding of the honor of hav- ing the largest increase in mem- bership with a parade and banquet last evening. The local group was given the distinction of securing the largest membership increase at the recent state convention. They received a silver cup, 18 inches high, and a set of flag standards. Both were dis- played at the banquet last evening. Commander J. J. O'Brien was the guest of honor as the representa- tive of State Commander John Roach, who was unable to be pres- ent, since he is in California at- tending the national convention. The program opened with a street parade headed by the Bugle and Drum Corps of Noble-Callahan Post, American Legion. At the ban- quet visitors were present from Co- hoes and Albany. John McBride, Commander of Russell Camp, spoke briefly at the banquet, extending his thanks to the auxiliary committee headed by Mrs. Laura Noonan, who served the banquet. A social time, with a mu- sical program, was enjoyed after the banquet. WHITNEY TAKES SPEAKER'S CHAIR IN LEGISLATURE TROY NRA CODE IS ADOPTED BY HAIRDRESSERS BAXTER CHARGES "SNAP PROPOSAL" ONNEWYORKBILL Held Assembly in Session as Lower House Awaits Action of the Senate. Albany, Aug. 25 (Special)—As- semblyman Maurice Whitney of Rensselaer County occupied the Speaker's chair in the Lower House of the Legislature for several hours yesterday afternoon and early last evening and held the lawmakers to- gether while the Assembly was awaiting several bills to come from the upper House. A technical rule on procedure the last day of the session requires the presence of a presiding officer at all times and when Speaker Joseph A. McGinnies went to attend conferences he turned the reins over to Mr. Whit- ney. While the Rensselaer County legislator was in the chair Assem- blyman Burton D. Esmond of Sara- toga County in a humorous vein moved for reconsideration of the "lulu bill." It will be recalled that It was Assemblyman Whitney, at the regular 1933 session, uncovered "in lieu" expenditures in the state bud- get amounting to thousands of dol- lars which were subsequsntly stricken out These "in iieu" items provided increased expense ac- counts, etc., which more than offset salary reductions of a large group of state officers and department heads. Mr. Whitney ruled that the Esmond motion was out of order. "Pete," as Assemblyman Whitney is known to his conferees, was ac corded ovations as he took the chair and later when he vacated in favor of Mr. McGinnies. All agreed that although Assemblyman Whitney had little to say, he made "a cork- ing sood Speaker." MAYOR DISCUSSES REUEF PROSPECT WITH STATE BODY Chides Democrats for Failure to Relieve Saratoga County Banking Situation. Albany, Aug. 25 (Special)—Sena- tor Alexander G. Baxter of the Sara- toga-Schenectady District charged the Democrats with selfishness last night in refusing relief to upstate counties while they pleaded for re- lief for New York during a debate on a court bill to bring more reve- nue into the coffers of the Metropo- lis. "The people of Saratoga County are suffering from the lack of bank- ing facilities," remarked Mr. Bax- ter. "If we are here to help each other let us do that rather than favor New York City alone." At this point Senator John J. Dunni- gan, Democratic whip, interposed an objection, claiming that Mr. Bax- ter was speaking on the Esmond banking bill rather than the bill In question. "I don't take up much of your time here and I don't waste time playing politics," the Senator told Senator Dunnigan. "As I look at this measure (the New York court bill) it is a snap proposition and I vote no." Conference at New York Shows Everything Depends on Com- ing Bond Issue Referendum. Mayor Burns was back at the City Hall today after a conference at New York yesterday with offi- cials of the state temporary emer- gency relief organization on plans and prospects for local relief work during the coming winter. The Mayor and Industrial Com- missioner Fleming had a long con- versation with Alfred H. Schoelkopf, State Relief Chairman, and other officials of the State administration at the New York headquarters. The upshot of the meeting was that all plans for state aid to municipal- ities must await the passage of the statewide referendum on a proposed $60,000,000 relief bond issue. The state funds, the Troy officials were told, are practically depleted and the only aid money now avail- able is that being dispensed by the state from Federal sources. Last year's bond issue of $30,000,000, hav- ing already proved inadequate to meet relief demands in the state, the administration officials stressed the need of "passing the double bond Issue. The Mayor, as Chairman of the Legislative Committee of the State Conference of Mayors, pledged the support of that organization for the coming referendum. He urged the state officials especially to guard against any confusion between the referendum proposition and possi- ble constitutional amendments up for vote, recalling that the confu- sion last.year almost resulted in the defeat of the former. Permanent Organization Formed and Rate Schedule Decided Upon—Eliminate Cut- Rate Prices. The master hairdressers and oper- ators of Troy and vicinity at their meeting in the City Hall last eve- ning adopted a code of hours and rates, enrolling them as members of the NRA. and formed a permanent organization which beauticians in Watervliet, Green Island, Cohoes and Waterford will be Invited to join. According to their new code, which will become effective Tues- day, September 5. the schedule of charges will be higher in most cases than the majority of beauty salons ask now. Following a heated discussion, in which an advocate of cut rate prices and a half dozen of his followers withdrew, the group of 59 men and women adopted the following rate schedule: Permanent waves, $7.50; finger wave, 75c! shampoo. 50c and 75c; oil shampoo, $1.25 and $1.50; hair bobbing, minimum, 50c; mar- cel, minimum, 75c; henna pack and shampoo, $2; hair bleaching and shampoo, $2; hair singe, 50c; mani- cure. 50c; plain facial. 50c; eye- brow tweezing, 50c; hair dyeing, retouching, $5; hair dyeing, com- plete, $8. Minimum wages of $14 per week were agreed upon for operators and the masters and operators agreed not to conduct business more than 54 hours in one week, with both per- mitted one hour daily for lunch. The officers chosen to head the permanent organization are: Carl Silverman, President; Miss Eliza- beth Conroy, Vice President; Alfred A. Roesch, Secretary; Mrs. Charles Randall. Treasurer.

The members of the committee are Leo Correale, Clarence Milanese, Miss Mary Burke, Miss Mary Simmons and Mrs. Mary Tynan, all of Troy, Miss Bessie Conlen of Watervliet, Miss Alice Tobin of Cohoes and Miss Mary Iannucci of Waterford. The organization voted last night to subscribe to membership in the Troy Chamber of Commerce. War- ren C. Blauvelt, President of the Chamber of Commerce and Execu- tive Chairman of the Troy NRA Committee, explained the Presi- dent's reemployment agreements for employing additional workers to All the shortage caused by the cut in hours. He also reviewed the purposes of the code, telling the benefits which general coperation would assure. J. P. Alcamasi of Schenectady, who took an important part in or- ganizing the Troy barbers last week, also aided at last night's meeting. He stated that the pur- pose of organization was to enable employers to pay a living wage to operators and to eliminate destruc- tive price cutting in the hair dress- ing business. The only disturbance in the orderly meeting occurred when a cut-rate advocate insisted that cut- rate prices were sufficient. During the excitement a call was sent to the Central Police Station, but all was quiet when the emergency squad arrived in charge of Ser- geant Andrew Fogarty. Mr. Cor- reale presided as Temporary Chairman at the opening of the meeting. Junior Chamber Will Have Part In NRA Campaign Plans for its part in the Troy NRA campaign were discussed at a meeting of the Junior Chamber of Commerce last night at the Savings Bank building. C. I. Day, Chairman of the Troy NRA Committee, addressed the members on plans for the local drive and it was decided to arrange the Junior Chamber's part in the work at a luncheon at the Hen- drick Hudson Hotel upon the re- turn of Harold S.

CONFERENCE TOLD PLANNED ECONOMY

NEED OF FUTURE Silver Bay Speaker Says Return

of Cut-Throat Competition Not Wanted.

The logical outcome of the meas­ures under which the country is now attacking present economic conditions is permanent long range economic study and planning, de­clared Howe E. Coffin, pioneer leader in the automotive and air­plane industry, speaking at the 16th annual conference on indus­trial relations at Silver Bay yester­day.

Mr. Coffin, who is now Chairman of Southeastern Cottons. Inc., said that industrialists everywhere want to go through with the present un­dertaking and that they "do not want to go back to the happy-go-lucky days of cut-throat competi­tion -and entirely unplanned economy."

"An\unfortunate aspect is that the textile industry Is trying to serve two masters," he said, "hav­ing to operate on the one hand un­der NRA and on the other under the farm relief act. We need con­centrated authority in Washington so we can get out of the zone of uncertainty.

He asserted that manufacturers' selling prices of textile commodi­ties have practically doubled under the stimulating effect of the NRA and farm relief ac t

"We are fortunate in now having in the White House a man of con­structive vision and decision, who will not hesitate to make modifica­tion in the industrial program when the necessity for such action becomes clear, Mr. Coffin said^

SAYS POPE'S LAST ENCYCUCAL LETTER

HAD NRA PRINCIPLES Many of the provisions of the

National Recovery Act carried out principles formulated by Pope Pius XI. in his encyclical letter of May 15, 1931, Dr. Eugene A. Colligan, President-elect of Hunter College, New York, said last night.

Measure Succumbs as Result of Bitter Partisan Strife.

Albany, Aug. 25 (Special)—Bitter partisan strife, which among other things resulted in the death of the Barge Canal Bill in which Rensse­laer, Albany and other counties of eastern New York were deeply ln-trested, marked the closing of the extraordinary session of the Legis­lature last night.

Most of the major pieces of legis­lation were accomplished during the final week of the five weeks' session. Refusal of the Democratic Senate to approve a Monroe County bill, described by its supporters' (mostly Republicans) as an emergency relief measure, led to the killing of canal legislation, which provided that New York State set up a revolving fund of $10,000,000 to begin work on the deepening of the canal, this amount to be paid back from an appropriation of $27,500,000 which the Federal Government would turn over under the National Recovery

Linked with the canal project was a proposal that the Federal authorities appropriate $2,190,000 for the deepening of the Hudson River from Albany to Troy. Whether the latter project will be undertaken now remains to be seen. The original canal measure provid­ed for the improvement of the canal from Waterford to Oswego, but this was amended in the Sen­ate to extend the improvement to Buffalo. A further amendment con­tained the original provision, but left to the discretion of the Board of Army Engineers the decision whether to improve the entire sys­tem.

Sponsors of the measure predict­ed passage of the bill early yester­day afternoon and preparations were under way for a long debate, but adjournment of the Assembly before the measure was received from the Upper House precluded any action.

Assemblyman John P. Hayes of Albany attempted to have the canal plan brought up on the floor as the Republican Assembly, prepar­ing for adjournment, slaughtered several Democratic proposals in re­taliation for the Democratic Sen­ates action in killing the Monroe County bill. Assemblyman Hayes demanded that the measure be brought before the House, but Speaker Joseph A. McGinnies up­held the contention of Assembly­man Horace Stone that all motions were out of order. That ended the canal bill. *

Improvement Not Dead. Declaring that he was "amazed"

by the failure of the New York Assembly to pass the bill for the $27,500,000 improvement to the Barge Canal by the Federal Gov­ernment, Governor Lehman was quoted by the Associated Press to­day with stating that in his opinion the project is nevertheless "by no means dead."

The bill for the improvement was passed by the Senate but was held up In the Republican controlled Assembly. The United States Army engineers have approved the deep­ening of the Barge Canal from 12 feet to 14 feet and the raising of the bridges between the Hudson River and Oswego, the cost to be paid by the Federal Government.

Governor Lehman said he be­lieved the defeat of the Republican Monroe County bond bill was in some measure responsible for the defeat of the canal measure.

"I do not know why the bill did not pass," Governor Lehman said, "except that it appears the Repub­licans were disappointed over the defeat of their Monroe County bond bill and decided to hold up some Democratic measures."

The bond bill, sponsored by As­semblyman Haskell H. Marks and Senator Fred J. Slater, both Mon­roe Republicans, would have per­mitted Monroe County towns or the county itself to issue bonds repre­senting unpaid taxes. The Demo­crats defeated it in the Senate af­ter it had passed the Assembly, claiming it was intended to cover up the "Irondequoit scandal" in Monroe a few years ago.

Marcus D. Russell Camp Celebrates Convention Honor

Marcus D. Russell Camp, United Spanish War Veterans, celebrated the awarding of the honor of hav­ing the largest increase in mem­bership with a parade and banquet last evening.

The local group was given the distinction of securing the largest membership increase at the recent state convention. They received a silver cup, 18 inches high, and a set of flag standards. Both were dis­played at the banquet last evening.

Commander J. J. O'Brien was the guest of honor as the representa­tive of State Commander John Roach, who was unable to be pres­ent, since he is in California at­tending the national convention. The program opened with a street parade headed by the Bugle and Drum Corps of Noble-Callahan Post, American Legion. At the ban­quet visitors were present from Co­hoes and Albany.

John McBride, Commander of Russell Camp, spoke briefly at the banquet, extending his thanks to the auxiliary committee headed by Mrs. Laura Noonan, who served the banquet. A social time, with a mu­sical program, was enjoyed after the banquet.

WHITNEY TAKES SPEAKER'S CHAIR

IN LEGISLATURE

TROY NRA CODE IS ADOPTED BY

HAIRDRESSERS

BAXTER CHARGES "SNAP PROPOSAL" ONNEWYORKBILL

Held Assembly in Session as Lower House Awaits Action

of the Senate. Albany, Aug. 25 (Special)—As­

semblyman Maurice Whitney of Rensselaer County occupied the Speaker's chair in the Lower House of the Legislature for several hours yesterday afternoon and early last evening and held the lawmakers to­gether while the Assembly was awaiting several bills to come from the upper House. A technical rule on procedure the last day of the session requires the presence of a presiding officer at all times and when Speaker Joseph A. McGinnies went to attend conferences he turned the reins over to Mr. Whit­ney.

While the Rensselaer County legislator was in the chair Assem­blyman Burton D. Esmond of Sara­toga County in a humorous vein moved for reconsideration of the "lulu bill." It will be recalled that It was Assemblyman Whitney, at the regular 1933 session, uncovered "in lieu" expenditures in the state bud­get amounting to thousands of dol­lars which were subsequsntly stricken out These "in iieu" items provided increased expense ac­counts, etc., which more than offset salary reductions of a large group of state officers and department heads. Mr. Whitney ruled that the Esmond motion was out of order.

"Pete," as Assemblyman Whitney is known to his conferees, was ac corded ovations as he took the chair and later when he vacated in favor of Mr. McGinnies. All agreed that although Assemblyman Whitney had little to say, he made "a cork­ing sood Speaker."

MAYOR DISCUSSES REUEF PROSPECT WITH STATE BODY

Chides Democrats for Failure to Relieve Saratoga County

Banking Situation. Albany, Aug. 25 (Special)—Sena­

tor Alexander G. Baxter of the Sara­toga-Schenectady District charged the Democrats with selfishness last night in refusing relief to upstate counties while they pleaded for re­lief for New York during a debate on a court bill to bring more reve­nue into the coffers of the Metropo­lis.

"The people of Saratoga County are suffering from the lack of bank­ing facilities," remarked Mr. Bax­ter. "If we are here to help each other let us do that rather than favor New York City alone." At this point Senator John J. Dunni-gan, Democratic whip, interposed an objection, claiming that Mr. Bax­ter was speaking on the Esmond banking bill rather than the bill In question. "I don't take up much of your time here and I don't waste time playing politics," the Senator told Senator Dunnigan. "As I look at this measure (the New York court bill) it is a snap proposition and I vote no."

Conference at New York Shows Everything Depends on Com­ing Bond Issue Referendum.

Mayor Burns was back at the City Hall today after a conference at New York yesterday with offi­cials of the state temporary emer­gency relief organization on plans and prospects for local relief work during the coming winter.

The Mayor and Industrial Com­missioner Fleming had a long con­versation with Alfred H. Schoelkopf, State Relief Chairman, and other officials of the State administration at the New York headquarters. The upshot of the meeting was that all plans for state aid to municipal­ities must await the passage of the statewide referendum on a proposed $60,000,000 relief bond issue.

The state funds, the Troy officials were told, are practically depleted and the only aid money now avail­able is that being dispensed by the state from Federal sources. Last year's bond issue of $30,000,000, hav­ing already proved inadequate to meet relief demands in the state, the administration officials stressed the need of "passing the double bond Issue.

The Mayor, as Chairman of the Legislative Committee of the State Conference of Mayors, pledged the support of that organization for the coming referendum. He urged the state officials especially to guard against any confusion between the referendum proposition and possi­ble constitutional amendments up for vote, recalling that the confu­sion last.year almost resulted in the defeat of the former.

Permanent Organization Formed and Rate Schedule Decided

Upon—Eliminate Cut-Rate Prices.

The master hairdressers and oper­ators of Troy and vicinity at their meeting in the City Hall last eve­ning adopted a code of hours and rates, enrolling them as members of the NRA. and formed a permanent organization which beauticians in Watervliet, Green Island, Cohoes and Waterford will be Invited to join. According to their new code, which will become effective Tues­day, September 5. the schedule of charges will be higher in most cases than the majority of beauty salons ask now.

Following a heated discussion, in which an advocate of cut rate prices and a half dozen of his followers withdrew, the group of 59 men and women adopted the following rate schedule: Permanent waves, $7.50; finger wave, 75c! shampoo. 50c and 75c; oil shampoo, $1.25 and $1.50; hair bobbing, minimum, 50c; mar­cel, minimum, 75c; henna pack and shampoo, $2; hair bleaching and shampoo, $2; hair singe, 50c; mani­cure. 50c; plain facial. 50c; eye­brow tweezing, 50c; hair dyeing, retouching, $5; hair dyeing, com­plete, $8.

Minimum wages of $14 per week were agreed upon for operators and the masters and operators agreed not to conduct business more than 54 hours in one week, with both per­mitted one hour daily for lunch.

The officers chosen to head the permanent organization are: Carl Silverman, President; Miss Eliza­beth Conroy, Vice President; Alfred A. Roesch, Secretary; Mrs. Charles Randall. Treasurer.

A Vigilance Committee was also chosen to take charge of enrolling all beauty shops in this area under the NRA code and after the code become effective to present written reports of shops operating outside the code or else violating their NRA pledges. The members of the committee are Leo Correale, Clarence Milanese, Miss Mary Burke, Miss Mary Simmons and Mrs. Mary Tynan, all of Troy, Miss Bessie Conlen of Watervliet, Miss Alice Tobin of Cohoes and Miss Mary Iannucci of Waterford.

The organization voted last night to subscribe to membership in the Troy Chamber of Commerce. War­ren C. Blauvelt, President of the Chamber of Commerce and Execu­tive Chairman of the Troy NRA Committee, explained the Presi­dent's reemployment agreements for employing additional workers to All the shortage caused by the cut in hours. He also reviewed the purposes of the code, telling the benefits which general coperation would assure.

J. P. Alcamasi of Schenectady, who took an important part in or­ganizing the Troy barbers last week, also aided at last night's meeting. He stated that the pur­pose of organization was to enable employers to pay a living wage to operators and to eliminate destruc­tive price cutting in the hair dress­ing business.

The only disturbance in the orderly meeting occurred when a cut-rate advocate insisted that cut-rate prices were sufficient. During the excitement a call was sent to the Central Police Station, but all was quiet when the emergency squad arrived in charge of Ser­geant Andrew Fogarty. Mr. Cor­reale presided as Temporary Chairman at the opening of the meeting.
