MINIMUM LAW
ON WAGES FOR
WOMEN UPHELD
Circuit Judge CIeeton Says Measure
Passed BY Legislature isConstitu-
tionaI One.
COMMISSION GIVEN POWER
Decision l. Far Reaching but Appeal
VIII BE Taken 10 supreme Court
Of Stakeholder States Have Been
waiting for Ruiing-Many Lines OF
Work Affected.

PORTLAND, Ore. Nov. Circuit
Judge Cleeton today upheld the con-
stitutionality of the minimum wage
law passed by the last legislature
which gives the Industrial welfare
commission the power to regulate the
hours. wages and the working condi-
tlons of women and minors employed
In the state. A ruling was made un-
der this law establishing the mini
mum wage at SS.64 weekly for women
employed in factories. A permanent
restraining order was asked by
Frank Stettler. a manufacturer. The
decision of Judge Cleeton denies this
order. The decision will be appealed
To the supreme court
The decision will be far reaching
because il is the first judicial affir-
nation of the laws ConstitutionaIity
and the rulings as to the employment
of women and minors in stores. Off
ces and telephone exchanges which
will be affected by it. 1t is important
also from the fact that similar leg
islation was passed in California.
Washington and other states and the
welfare commissions in these states
have been eagerly awaiting the de-
cision.
Judge Cleeton aeld that legislation
affecting the wages of women is
within the police power of the state
and thta it doesn't. as complained by
Stettler. delegate legislative powers to
the commission and its conference
committees and that ii does not de-
prive the employer of his proper
right of private contract.

SCHOOL TAX LEVY
IS 8 MILLS, SAME
AS THAT IN 1912
Estimated That With Tax and Money
Derived From County and State
Sum Will Be $4,000.

Taxpayers of Pendleton will pay no
more and no less for the support of
the city schools this year than they
did last At meeting of the school
board yesterday afternoon. it was de-
cided to levy a nine mill tax. the same
as year ago. an estimate of the ex-
penses of the year commencing De-
cember ! showing that tax of that
size would be necessary.
Such a city school tax together
with the money derived from the
county and state will net the district
about s62,00 for the operation of its
schools during the next year. That
the members of the board are care
ful in making their estimate is evil
denced by the fact that the expenses
during the past year have varied
from the original estimate only few
hundred dollars.
The district will secure from the
county about eight dollars per capita
OF school children. Though the coun-
ty makes provision for a ten dollar
per capita appropriation, the delin-
Quencies and rebates reduce the am.
cunt actually available about two dol
lars. From the state the district will
secure $3.50 per capita.
The teachers salaries constitute the
largest single item in the expenses of
