hour basic day. forty hours work each
week. and pay at the rate of time and
half for overtime.
No Stated Amount Guaranteed.

antee any stated amount of work each
week, ana refuses to pay the time and
half, the complaint states. Further
more, it charges that the company has
cut eff extra pay which had been Sc
cured by certain employees thru their
extra efficiency and faithfulness.

299 members of the union employed
in the packing plant.
There has been dissatisfa ction in the
Wolff plant for some weeks, which
has come to a head in the complaint
to the industrial court

If This

Assrnall matter, tl1is-yet only one
Of the risks incurred In sending the

In what you weaf, as. In what you
eat, purity and sanitation are inn
portant- these you can be sure
of only in thoroughly modern laun-

Consider these things-what you

rinsed not once, but three or four
times, IN more clean, clear water.
Then ironed at 212 degrees and
more, and wrapped, finally in sun

Not mere cleanness- practical
