SWEATSHOPS OF NATION ARE HIT
 HARD BY CODES
Coat and Suit Industry Ace cepts Plan That May Mean Death to the Cheap Factories

Washington. Aug. - (UP) - Promulgation of a permanent code for the coat and suit industry was hailed by MIRA leaders today as marking the end of sweat shops in that major section of the women's garment trade. Many leaders in the industry and out side interests have been battling for years to check the practices of cut-throat employers who work ed men and women long hours.
 The code orders flve-day, 35- houd week, with minimum wages from $14 to SAT. Home work is from $14 to $17. Home work is abolished and no work is per- mitted in unsafe or insanitary mitted in sunsafe or unsanitary shops. An MIRA label is to be sewn in every garment. President Roosevelt approved the code late last week.

for flawless casting. We have
Washington's own empress OF the
footlights, Helen Hayes, as Scot
lands tragic ruler. This charac'
terization, I think, marks the apex
of a career which has been a
steady but sure climb to the
heighths. She limns a Mary who
tried to rule Scotland in a
woman's way only to become hope,
lessly enmeshed in intrigue and
bloody strife.
AS Miss Hayes depict, her, she
is a gentle soul with a noble am
bition to do the right thing for
Scotland, but to become the per-
siStent victim of the lying and
treachery which surrounded her
court. A sympathetic and heroic
figure, yes. Others may bubble
as to the accuracy of the picture,
but the actress on the National
stage last night seemed always
beautifully in the mood, gay. Wig
orous and competent, a regal por-
trait of a courageous queen, emo
tionally stirring, excitingly real.

MagnificentIy Told
In three acts and seven scenes
the playwright has contrived to
nugget the main events in the
glamorous career of one of his
tory's most controversial figures.
He skips lightly over her child
hood years in France and picks
up the main theme of his tale
on the pier at Leith when the
little Queen Of Scots arrives to
WELD the sceptre over a country
torn by religious strife.
Thereafter in logical sequence
he unfolds Elizabeth'S plottings
to unseat a rival whom she
envies and fears. Acting through
the agency of the intolerant
John Knox, England's virgin
monarch skillfully maneuvers
Mary of Scotland into the un-
happy union with her dissolute
cousin, Lord Darnley.
The scheming mobiles prey upon
Lord Darnley's jealousy until he
murders his wife's jealous and
faithful secretary, Rizzio, to cast
a lasting blight upon her virtue.
Mary Is Absolved,
It is a moot point in history
whether Mary of Scotland then
plotted with the belligerent Earl
of Boutwell, to be rid of her hus-
band. Playwright Anderson ac-
cepts the version that her hands
were not crimson and that she
was innocent of any completely
in the explosion which wiped
him from the earth. Scotland
did resent her speedy marriage
to Boutwell, and from that point
her castle began slowly to
crumble.
Her flight to England and
futile hope of refuge with Eliza
beth are dramatically pictured in
all their tragic disillusionment in
a memorable last act scene in
Carlisle Castle. Here the acid
queen Elizabeth confronts her
youthful foe and discloses that it
must be abdication for Mary or a
life in prison exile. There the
play ends. The final chapter is
on your library shelf.
Beauty In Writing
There is grace in this writing
and beauty too. Occasionally the
lines which skillfully avoid the
stilted speech of the period are
favored with the vernacular OF
the present. AS a medieval story
teller you will never find that
playwright Anderson is ponderous
and some of his phrases have the
rounded lilt of poetry while others
make free use of society's forbid
den words.
