Washington July 60 Harriman Tennessee hosiery representatives said they had received no notice that NRA has decided to remove their blue eagle a second time. Two mill officials were in the capital A T Asbury Wright president and general cashier and M W Walker secretary who signed the agreement which restored the eagle ten days ago.

Walker conferred briefly with A R Glancy NEA division administrator who signed the settlement but the subject of the discussion could not be learned immediately. Telegraphs NRA chief Hugh S Johnson telegraphed NRA officials that unless Harriman mills agreed to two points immediate reemployment of 50 strikers and a promise to bargain collectively with workers the blue eagle should be removed again.
