Andrews Is Prepared
To Crack Down. on
Wage-Hour vio|ators
Declares We Can't Let
Chiselers Get Awoy
With Practices
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The honeymoon" is over for the
Wage-Hour Administration, exactly
q month after the broad labor STAN
dards law went into effect.
Amplifying his press conference
statement that the time has come
to "crack down" on violators, Ad-
ministrator Elmer F. Andrews said
today in an interview:
1--WE can't let the chiselers get
away with their practices any
longer"
While operation of the wage-hour
program was getting under way,
Mr.. Andrews deliberately withheld
action on complaints. He said he
wanted to give interstate industry
an opportunity to adjust itself to
the new 25-cents- an-hour minimum
wage and the maximum work week
Of A hours.
Ready to Start Prosecution.
He issued interpretations and reg
ulations to guide companies un-
certain whether they came under
the law or were in an exempted
category. But now he considers the
period of grace at an end, and is
ready to start prosecution of vio-
lators.
The 48-year-old administrator
customarily placid, used forceful
language as he lolled on the big red
davenport in his office and discussed
the laws provision that the courts
must rule finally on violations.
apparently, Congress thought
that industry might feel safer in
the hands of the court than the ad-
ministrator," he said.
"It would have been much easier
for the administrator If we had
been given clearer powers. It would
have been much easier, for example
II Congress in the first place had
defined the area of production
(Which is exempt from the acD.
I'D be reluctant. to recommend
changes in the law and we wouldn't
even be thinking about it were ii
not for the fact that it requires us
to make suggestions for improve
ments"
Too Early for Estimates.
Mr.. Andrews told President Roose-
velt recently that operation of the
statute may have thrown as many
as $4,000 persons out of work. That
number will drop. he predicted
with greater knowledge of its pro-
visions.
He said today it was too early tc
estimate the extent to which the
act had raised wages generally.
"The number of violations re-
ported thus far has been smaller
than expected" Mr.. Andrews said
noting that only about one-fourth
OF 1900 complaints received so fa1
appeared to have real basis.
Most of the complaints involved
asserted attempts of employers tc
"juggle" wages to avoid overtime
payments. The practice may OF
may not result in reducing the
money in the workers pay envelope
But, it's very dangerous to try te
do that" the administrator said
because the employe six months
from now may bring a civil action
and then it will be too bad If the
employer Is wrong.
The law provides that employees
may go into Federal or State courts
to recover twice the amount of thu
difference between what they re.
ceived and the statutes schedule"

Roth Pope Plus and Premier Benito Mussolini are eager, according to informants, to effect an agreement and avoid unpleaSantness such as resulted from a disagreement in 1881, also over the Catholic Action organiza- ton.
 It was reported that negotiations were opened after church officials received information that several hundred members of the Catholic Action had returned their member ship card. The feeling seemed to be in church quarters that some Fascist officials might have used pressure in these cases, on the ground that membership in the Fascist party was incompatible with membership in the Catholic Action
 Father Pietro Tacchi-Venturi, who handled the 1881 dispute, was re- ported to have been delegated to act in the present instance as mediator between the pope and Mussolini,
 It was reported that several prom inent Jews, including Dr. David Prato. rabbi of Rome's Jewish com munity. had visited the pope tc thank him for his recent speech con- demning race discrimination.

Berlin, Aug. 12-UP)--German Roman Catholic bishops are to meet at Fulda Tuesday for what is ex- pected to be their most important conference since the Nazis came to power January 30, 1883.
 It was forecast today that the bishops would probably decide their future stand on questions affecting church relations. The meeting has been postponed again and again over a period of several months.
 Austrian bishops are to hold their own meeting at Salzburg, They are not scheduled to attend the Fulda meeting, despite the official union of Austria with Germany. because of the difficulty of reaching an agreement with German bishops on the church attitude toward the gov ernment. So far the Austrian bishops have shown greater disposition to make peace with the Nazis Roman Catholic circles expressed belief that the most important pastoral letter since the Nazi accession would be read at the Fulda meeting,
 Rome, Aug. 12-(UP)-A reliable Roman Catholic church source said today that negotiations Lad been opened between the church and the Italian Fascist government to settle the dispute which grew out of the new Fascist anti-Semitic campaign The racial" policy of the govern
