DELAYS SINCLAIR

Roosevelt Waits to Study

Report With Which He

Disagreed. By the Associated Press.

President Roosevelt is reserving action on the resignation of John F Sinclair. Minneapolis economist, from the N. R. A. Monopoly Investi- gation Board pending a study of the report with which Sinclair disagreed.

Clarence Darrow. veteran lawyer and chairman of the board and five other members joined in a report to tire President. Sinclair disagreed.

The President will not make public the report until he has given it greater stud"..

Hugh S. Johnson, N. R. A. head, declined to say whether he would adopt the suggestion of the board for attaching an N. R. A. official to that agency.

Set Up to Criticize N. R. A.

“The first I ever heard of any offer of co-operation from the Darrow board was from the morning news-

papers.'' said the administrator. "They have never gotten in touch with me

or even seen me since the work began ’’

The Darrow unit was set up to criticize N. R. A. from the viewpoint of small business and recommend re-

lief for complainants. The request of the board to N. R A.

for co-operation was made in a letter by Owell B. Mason, board counsel, to Alvin Brown, review officer for the N R. A

After noting that N. R. A had set up a review division. Mason suggested:

“It is our thought that a closer co-

operation between this division and the legal department of the National Recovery Review Board would obviate the necessity of conducting lengthy hearings on many questions pertaining to changes in the existing codes

Mason's letter pointed out that J N. Freeman had been selected by E. M. Jeffrey, chief of the review divi- sion. to study complaints under codes, and suggested that Freeman be lent to the board, so that “with his co-

operation we can plan the elimina- tion of many of the complaints that are received without the necessity of prolonged hearings.’’

Board officials said attempts to co- operate with N. R. A. in the past had been fruitless in most cases, although some deputy administrators were aid- ing, with the result that many injus- tices had been corrected.

Sinclair is not in Washington. He has not attended board meetings for some time.

W. W. Neal, small hosiery manu- facturer of Marion, N. C., yesterday was elected vice chairman, succeed-

ing Sinclair, and the board’s mem- bership decided among themselves, without making special recommenda- tion to the President, that another member, to bring the membership to six. was net needed.

The other members of the board be- sides Darrow and Neal are W. O. Thompson, retired lawyer of New York City; Samuel C. Henry, druggist of Philadelphia and Chicago, and Fred Mann, retired merchant of Devils Lake, N. Dak.

ATTACKS REVIEW BOARD.

Sinclair Charges Group Has Been Unfair.

MINNEAPOLIS, May 8 <&).—John F. Sinclair of Minneapolis, former vice chairman of the National Recovery Review' Board, asser. the group has been unfair in its operations.

In a statement last night he said a majority report of the board to Presi- dent Roosevelt was written from “sloppy, one-sided half-information. and that it showed "utter disregard for fair play or the basic facts" on monopolistic practices under the N. R. A.

Submits Minority Report. Sinclair sent his resignation to

President Roosevelt April 28. At the same time he submitted a minority re-

port of the board, which brought out his differences with Clarence Darrow. noted Chicago criminal lawyer, who Is chairman of the body.

“Never in my 25 years of experience in researches and investigations,” he continued, “have I witnessed such utter disregard for fair play or the basic facts as the National Recovery Review Board under Clarence Darrow has shown, even in its open hearings. Such an attitude at a time like this is nothing short of tragedy.”

Research Held Ignored. He said he opposed the “kind of

sloppy, one-sided, half-information, that is the foundation upon which the Darrow-Russell (Charles Edward Rus- sell) majority report has been writ- ten.’ He said that "careful analytical research” had been ignored.

Sinclair denied published reports that his friendship for Gen. Hugh S. Johnson had caused him to oppose Darrow.

In his minority report, Sinclair said there are dangers that big busi- ness might eliminate smaller firms. He urged a small board of three mem-

bers. outside and independent of the N. R. A., to exist throughout the lile of the recovery administration.

This board, he proposed, would handle complaints based on laws of the land.

£\oted Conductor And O pern goers Even on Rebukes

!Audience Gets Revenge On Beecham With

Jeers for Delay. By the Associated Press.

LONDON, May 8—The score is "all even” today in the exchange of scoldings and rebukes between Sir Thomas Beecham, noted conductor, and Covent Garden operagoers.

Sir Thomas went one up at the opening of the season May 1, when he subdued a babble of conversation and ill-timed applause with “Shut up, you.”

The audience got even last night— and liked it.

"Gotterdammerung” w-as being per- formed in two sections and when the audience was reseated punctually for the second section there w'as no sign Of Sir Thomas

After waiting several minutes, gal- leryites began to clap impatiently. They kept up the demonstration until the conductor appeared.

Then followed a burst of ironical cheers and laughter from the house.

Sir Thomas, apparently unmoved, waited tor the noise to subside, tap- ped for the orchestra to begin—and things went along smoothly.

It w-as explained later that the au- dience's retaliatory rebuke to Sir Thomas was in reality undeserved, since the delay due to trouble with the stage scenery.
