Hopes NRA Conference May Cause Permanent Changes
General Hugh S Johnson aims for a permanent social order shift from the NRA code authorities meeting March 5. He wants industry under the NRA to prove it can serve national well being and justify perpetuating the new system. Johnson notes talks with Ford on AFL claims of auto code violations and says court action if needed. He frames public sessions as informing delegates on social responsibility, shorter hours, and broader code changes. The gathering seeks to transform 500 regiments into capable units for coordinated action and to sustain strong industry employment while protecting civilians from hardship.
