WAGE Law IS v0|D
Held Unconstitutional and Enforce
ment Is Enjoined.

st. Paul, Nov. "23.-Holding the
minimum wage law passed by the 1913
Minnesota legislature to be unconstitu-
tional, Judge Catlin today handed down
decision ordering temporary injunc-
ton against State Auditor Iverson and
members of the minimum wage COM
mission from expanding further money
in the work of the commission.
The ruling also suspends the order OF
the commission fixing minimum wage
for women and minor workers, which
was to become effective today. Judge
Catlin's order makes the minimum
wage law ineffective until the case has
been tried on its merits. His decision
will be appealed to the supreme court.
