MINIMUM WAGE
 EFFECTIVE HERE
Public Opinion to Enforce New Provisions for
 Cleaners, Overs

Labor Commissioner Joseph M. Tone announced today that he has approved the report of the mini mum wage board for women and minors in the cleaning and dyeing industry and that it's recommenda- tionS will become effective on Mon day, January g, 1899.
 The recommendations, which af- feet more than 1000 women and minors in Connecticut will be en- forced, he explained, solely by pub lie opinion for the first three months of the new year, during which period the names of viola tors will be given to the consuming public.
 After the first quarter of 1889, the wage scale may be made mandatory in which case it is enforceable by arrest and court trial.
 The unanimous report of the board, which was discussed at a public hearing last week, provides a 35 cent hour for women and minors except that persons working in stores and offices of the industry are to receive $14.40 for week of Al to 48 hours.
 Provisions for waiting time and no deductions from wages except for social security taxes are also included in the recommendations. Minimum wage scales have al- ready been established for women and minors employed in laundries and in the mems pants industry, affecting approximately $500 work CTS, Commissioner Tone pointed out
 Of the newest minimum wage, he said:
 "It should eliminate the very low pay that some cleaning and dyeing establishments have been giving their workers. Our records show that girls have had to work for as little as four dollars weekly" Numerous requests have been re- ceived, he said, for the application of the minimum wage to hairdreSs- ing and to other industries.

TRAILER ROUTES
 OFFERED ON MAPS
Trips to Southern Winter Resorts Outlined to
 Avoid Traffic

Motorists travelling with a trailer are naturally anxious to avoid pass ing through or coming in contact with the large cities with their dense traffic and complicated regu- lations. Therefore, those motoring with traielrs this winter from New England to the winter resorts in the southern section of our country, will undoubtedly be interested in learn ing how they may keep out of such cities and avoid contact with the dense traffic which is always en- countered when the driver is close to the big centers of population.
 By whatever route seems best, the driver should approach and cross the Hudson via the Bear Mountain Bridge. From most points this can best be done by use of Route U. S.. POP, although those living south of Danbury, Conn. might find the use of other alternate roads for reach ing the bridge somewhat more pre- ferable.
 After crossing the Bear Mountain Bridge, which has a splendid scenic approach highway, three and one half miles in length, continue in a southerly direction over U. s. POP to Suffern, New York; thence pro- ceed, still on U. s. POP in southerly direction, through the states of New York, New Jersey and Penn sylvanfa, until reaching West Chester, Pa, where Route 52 is en- countered and followed to a con- nection with Route U. s. 1, over which the motorist should continue in southerly direction.
 Free detailed two-color highway maps showing Ruote U. s. POP. which starts at Bangor, Maine, are available to the trailer driver and may be had by writing to the Bear Mountain Bridge at 39 Broadway, New York City.
