All told, 1,489,720 retail concerns and more than 5,006,000 wage earners are affected. Self-zZovernment for trades, dealing directly with every consumer in the country, isour most important soeial problems.’’ . Hie emphasized the fact that the President personally reviews every ecode and reports on it, and said: *““Efis decisions are based upon the broadest understanding of the’ factual evidence. This direct supervision by the President gives wage earners complete confidence in the justice and fundamental soundness of the provisions as an assured basis for continuance of their enrployment at a living wage. Upon that confiGence, which has permeated the entire banking, industrial, and mezcamtile structure of the country, the suceess of this most economic legislation ever conceived, the. NRA, is absolutely guaranteed.” The code as submitted Provides a 44-hour week and 48 hours at peak “periods, far-reaching excepting those earning more than $30 per week. registered pharmacists and other Professional persons, and minimum varying from $11 in villages to $14 weekly in the larger cities. Et is conservatively estimated that 250,000 additional workers can be reem ployed in the retail trades on the basis of their code as submitted; a 44-hour week would be required to Freabsorb the approximate 1090 to 12 per cent of retail employees laid off rates of pay simce 1929, ranging from a minimum of 7 per cent in New York to: 2 maximum of 32 per cent in Detroit and an increase of 2 per cent in Washington, D.

These also employ at pre Sent 1,500,000 men and women. PUBLIC HEALTH STANDARDS IN STATE RAISED By MELVIN LORD SACRAMENTO, Sept. 7——CUP)— Improvement -of public health conditions is one of California’s most important governmental problems, in the opinion of state officials. This function, incidentally, will be ef increasing importance in the hext few years, it is believed. ERecogznition of the policy, state records reveal, has led to the employment of a total of 238 city and county thealth officers in the state, of whicch three are located im Nevada county. DECREASING MORTALITY This total includes only. the heads public health departments, and not take into consideration the Ihunmdreds of other doctors, nurses and other persons employed by county and municipal health agencies: The steady increase in public health work in recent years is credited by officials with being iargely responsible for better control of contazgious diseases, more regular school attendance and a decreasing death rate. “There are indications that pub“hie health problems will be more azeute in the immediate future than red, $40,046.92; QUEEN LIL MILL'S NEW FLOTATION UNIT READY With the compledon of the flota. tion unit and other general improve. ments which have been undertaken . during the past six’ weeks at the . Queen Lil mill, the mill is now equip. ped to handle a small amount cf cus-. tom ore, in addition to handling the production of the West Mines Corporation and the associated Comstock Gold Point Mining Company. ; Several test lots are now being run, or in transit for that purpose, Front . smaller nearby properties. The new: flotation unit is using pneumatic agitation, which, it is believed, has not previously been used in this district. MOST SCHOOLS — DENIED PLEA TO INCREASE TAX By MELVIN” IN LORD SACRAMENTO, Sept. 7—-(UP)—#i Strict interpretation of the economy i provisions of the Riley-Stewart tax} plan today led the state board of . equalization to deny all but 17 of; 800 requests of school districts to. exceed the 5 per Cent per year bud-! get increase limitation. Requests for expenditures over the $4,000,000, according to Fred Stewart, board member. Of this amount only $1,588,886 was allowed . by the board, including $1,352,481,43 to Los Angeles county for reconstruction and repair of schools damaged by the earthquake. Aside from the earthquake reconstruction funds, virtually the only emergency claims validated were to replace schools destroyed by fire, or to carry through building contracts! entered into before the Riley-Stewart plan was adopted last June. “The board has adhered to the most_rigid interpreation of ‘emergen= cies’ in acting upon’ requests for authority to exceed the 5 per cent budget limitation, believing that every tax-spending body owes it to the people at this period to practice the strictest economy in government affdirs,”’ State Controller Ray L. Riley . said. “We have sought to keep faith with the people of California, who, wwhen they voted for the Riley-Stewart plan, were equally desirous of tax equalization and drastic retrenchment in both local and state expenditures. The board, on the other hand, has done its utmost to guard against crippling any school district.’’ Favorable action was taken on th following applications: Alameda county, Albany -high school, requested, $42,409.44, allowEl Dorado county, Willow elementary, requested, and allowed, $948.97; Humboldt county, Yager elementary, requepted; ip 1,643.58, allowed $1,153.20; Los Angeles county, Los Angeles city elementary, requested and allowed, $1,258,977; Whittier Union high schooi requested and allowed, $52,201.05, San Gabriel high school, requested and allowed, $41,303.38: Orange county, Seal Beach elementary; requested and allowed, $5,849.82; Placer county, Emigrant Gap elementary, requested, $4,140.76, aHowed; $4,078.31; Santa Calara county, Palo Alto high school, requested and allowed, $29,493.26; Shasta county, Mill Creek elementary, requested and allowed, $909.38; Parkville elementary, requested, $1,372.71, allowed, $1,080.61; Siskiyou county, Siskiyou Union high school, requested, $27,400.30, allowed, $22,404.98: Sofano county, Vallejo high school, requested and allowed, $24,434.11. The board announced that action on requests of the Long Beach elementary, high school and junior college districts was being held up pending receipt of additional data. have been in the past,’’ Dr. Giles S. Porter, director of the state department of public health said. FAULTY HOUSING “It. is conceded generally that the results of the economic depression have not, as yet, exerted. a profound, influence upon public health conditions. “During the new few years health departments generally will undoubtedly. be burdened-—with probl@ms that will arise in the wake of the period of unemployment, under-nut‘ition, exposure and faulty housing conditions that have prevailed to a certain extent since 1929. “Because of this the work of the public health officers will be of particular importance.” Mrs. Elmo Trewhella of Alleghany returned home yesterday aftér a few. days visit In Nevada City with her BIGCREW WORKS ON BRUNSWICK reopening > = tmouth of the shaft, troyed the Work has 1350 feet deep.
