ting of the minimum wage for laeundries, numerous complaints that earnings are inadequate have been received from women em- ployes, Tone said.
 In addition, some owners have urged the Labor Department to ap- ply wage law in the business be- cause of unfair competition through ruthless wage cutting.
 The board will hold it's first meet ing in the near future and will rec ommend minimum wage to the albor commissioner within two months. A public hearing on the recommendations will then be held If the commissioner considers them advisable and beneficial to the in- dustry and to the employees therein. he will issue an order to all dary cJeaninigi establishments in Con- necticut to obey the recommenda- tionse.
 To date, two industries in the state have been ordered to pay wo- men and minors not less than the minimum wage.
 Workers in mems pants establish ments must receive at least 35 cents an hour, and those in laundries at least 30 cents an hour.
