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^

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.
