General Johnson Tired

SUGGESTS BOARD FOR N.R.A.

Washington, July 10. General Hugh Johnson, Administrator of the N.R.A. appears finding the job too much for him and is anxious to hand over.

It was learned to-day that General Johnson has recommend- ed President Roosevelt to appoint a Commission to direct the Na- tional Recovery Administration and to allow him to retire,

He stated: "I have recommend- ed ta the President that this won't be a one-man job when it panson into the field of adminis tration.

"I have suggested a Board or a Commission."

Asked whether he would con- tinue in office until the next Con- xress meets, General Johnson inswored that that is probable, although he would like to get away as soon as possible.

"I am prepared to stay as long un the President thinks he needs me."-Reuter.
