Ing as such, Is hereby hxed at TWO W
dollars per day, and stipulation 20 tnat
effect must be made a part OF all con-
tracts to which the state, or any munich
pal corporation therein. is party: pro-
vided, however. that this act shall not
apply to persons employed regularly IN
any of the public institutions OF the state
or any city, city and county or county.
Section 2. This act shall take effect
immediately"
1t is clear that the act makes 1t illegal
to expend any money voted by the city
council, board of supervisors or otner
public authority for wages at less tnan
81 per day, but 1t would seem from Judge
Silent's telegram that 1t is private FUNDS,
expended by private parties. II that Is
so II is considered by lawyers In both
branches of the legislature as not COM
Ing under the act; but no public help
must be. given the unemployed. The
law also forbids work on irrigation
bitches in irrigation districts for less than
two dollars and another act limits the
hours of labor to eight.
Its author declares 1t was introduced
by him, (Assemblyman Tracy Of San
Francisco) at the request OF the labor
unions, especially the American Fedora
ton of Labor. and was considered and
indorsed by the labor unions Of San
Francisco. The same condition of af-
fairs exists in that city as In Los Angeles.
but the new law is to be got around
by not making any city or county ap-
propriations consequently there Is no
use in the unemployed asking the coun-
eli for work, unless minimum rate of
two dollars Gay is fixed by that body.
In all city contracts wages at that rate
must now be figured on.
