HOUSE COMMITTEE TO
REPORT LABOR BILL

ASS|A OASA A>1AA&O4O O4A1
Washington, May 9-(P)-A house
labor subcommittee Tuesday unani-
mously approved a shorter work-week
bill embodying minimum wage and
antitrust law suspension provisions.
The bill, said Chairman Connery
will be reported to the full committee
for approval Wednesday.
The principle on which the meas
ure is based, Connery asserted, is that
OF licensing system. All manufac.
turers and importers under the new
measure would be required to obtain
licenses from the federal government
assuring their compliance with the
shorter work week and minimum wage
provisions.
Instead Of permitting manufactur.
ers to work longer than five-day week,
six-hour day shifts, the bill will leave
that power to a new agency to be
known as the federal trade regulation
board. This board, sitting in confer
ence with industry and labor, will
have the right to establish minimum
wages, hours of production and other
within an industry neces-
sary to carry out a shorter work week
plan.

company, the urge usually being found
in the commissions belief that . re-
duction is war; anted.
Sometimes the foundation of this
belief lies in facts and figures COM
piled by the board from reports of
the companies, sometimes in the ex-
perience of the commissioners with
regard to such matters.
Under these circumstances, the
commission approaches the utility
with the suggestion that a rate cut
would be fitting and proper. II and
when the utility consents and the
amount and nature of the reduction
are agreed upon, it is announced as
having voluntarily been made by the
company affected. The utility gets
credit for having made the change
and the railroad commission gets the
satisfaction of knowing it has pro-
tected the consumers interest.
Legal provision is made, of course.
for forcing reductions where condi-
tons justify, but this is rather long,
involved and expensive process. In
such cases it is necessary for the rail-
road board to make a physical valua-
ton Of the utility property involved
and then to fix rates which will give
moderate return on the investment
so shown. There is no short cut from
this process other than that of vol
untary" reductions, for the DECISIONS
OF the commission must be based on
competent evidence which can stand
the scrutiny of any court to which
the matter may be appealed. Under
the law there can be no arbitrary
lowering or increasing of utility rates.
Lack of help to make valuations
has handicapped the railroad COM
mission in its efforts to obtain re-
auctions in some districts because the
appropriation given this department
has not been sufficient to hire the
staff Of engineers necessary for this
work. During the next biennium the
regular staff will be reduced from
one man to two because of an appro-
priation veto, although $4,000 was
appropriated with which to begin the
work Of making utility property val
uations.
Barring the results which may be
obtained from this appropriation, the
rate reductions obtained in this state
during the next biennium will con-
tinue to be voluntary.

MCDONALD SEES PROSPECT
OF TRUCE ON TARIFFS

MCDONALD SEES PROSPECT
OF TRUCE ON TARIFFS
London, May 9.-P)-Prime Min
lister Ramsay Macdonald announced
in the house of commons Tuesday
there is every prospect OF reaching
an agreement between Britain and
the United States as to the advis-
ability of an immediate tariff truce
There have been further ex-
changes Of views with the United
States government" the prime min
lister said, land I am now in posi-
ton to say that, subject to settle
ment Of the actual words and while
protecting the essential positions Of
both governments, there Is every
prospect of reaching an agreement
between them as to the ACCESSIBILITY
of an immediate tariff truce"
Macdonald said the truce would
not prevent continuation of work
which Britain now had begun or was
developing In accordance with an
nouncements already made in the
house.
This reference to work before the
commons evidently was an allusion
to British trade negotiations recent
ly made or announced as pending.
Touches on Debt Issue
The prime minister also touched
on the war debt issue, saying that
"our aim must be permanent set
Element"
He declared that June Is, the due
date on the next installment, would
be an awkward hurdle.
But quiet survey Of the pos
sibilities is required in the mean
tine," he continued, land nothing
ought to be said here which would
so increase the difficulties as to
make the hurdle impossible to clear."
There was complete union Of opin-
ion when he was at Washington,
Macdonald said, that the world eco
nomic conference starting June IL
could not be wholly successful UNI
less the debt difficulty had been re-
moved before the conference ended.
It never had been contemplated, he
told the house, that the war debts
should come before the conference
itself. Debt negotiations would have
to proceed concurrently and on
parallel lines by another body of
men, he explained.
