LITTLE STEEL HIT
BYS. v. 0. c. HEAD
Fatten on U. S. Contracts
by Cutting Wages,
Murray Says.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Philip Murray, chairman of the
Steel Workers Organizing Committee.
complained today that Republic and
Bethlehem Steel Corps. "fatten them
selves on lucrative Government con-
tracts" by cutting wages
Since they do not pay wages as
high as competitors, the c. I. o.
leader said, they can offer lower bids
and thus obtain the Government busi-
ness
Mr.. Murray made the charge while
asking that the Labor Department set
minimum wages In the steel and iron
industry at from As to 62l2 cents an
hour. He suggested geographical
differentials.
L. Metlcalfe Walling of the Labor
Department predicted earlier that .
minimum wage for workers on Gov
eminent contracts would become the
base wage for the entire steel in
dustry.
The industry will almost have to
adopt this wage as the going minimum
because the companies can not easily
segregate their employees into groups
working on Government contracts and
those who are not" he said
Hearings Opened Today.
The Labor Department began public
hearings today to determine the pre-
vailing wage in the industry, which
manufacturers must pay in perform
ing Government contracts.
Under Mr.. Murray's suggestion the
country would be divided into three
regions for minimum wage purposes.
A minimum pay rate of 62l2 cents an
hour would be set for the Eastern
area, which produces 94.2 per cent
of the Nations steel This region
would include all States east of the
western borders Of Minnesota, Iowa
and Missouri, and north Of the south
ern borders of Missouri, Kentucky and
Virginia.
Mr.. Walling and the Public Con-
tracts Board asked the steel COM
panies and labor unions to submit
statistics at hearing today to guide
the Government in fixing the pre-
vailing wage" scale. This procedure
is required by the Walsh-Healey Act
regulating Federal contracts
Provides 40-Hour Week.
The act compels companies whose
contracts with the United States ex-
ceed $4,000 to adopt 40-hour week,
pay prevailing wages approved by Sec
retary Perkins, ban child and convict
labor and conform to certain stand
ards for working conditions.
Most steel companies have adopted
the 40-hour week Mr.. Walling said
the fact that the industry is operating
at less than 40 per cent Of capacity
makes observance of the hour provision
easy. Officials of some concerns have
estimated that Government business
forms about per cent of their opera
tions.
The steelworkers' branch of the c. /
o. requested Mr.. Walling to determine
the required wage minima only short
time after major steel companies re-
duced prices. The C. I. o. expressed
fear the cuts might lead to pay slashes.
Lee Pressman, c. I. o. general coun-
sci, said determination of the prevail
ing wage would force some of the big
non union steel companies to raise theil
scales and would prevent non-union
plants from underbidding union COM
panies on Government contracts. A
large part Of the industry is operating
under Steelworkers' Organizing Com
mittee &C. I. o. contracts.
