Senate Votes Five-DaY
Week For D. C.. Firemen

Washington, d. C. (AFLWNS).-
The Senate passed without a dissent
ing vote and sent to the House of
Representatives bill containing a
number Of amendments to the Walsh
Healey Public Contracts Act advo-
Gated by the American Federation of
Labor.
Contractors for supplies costing the
Government over $4,000 are subject
to the present public contracts law.
One Of the Senate amendments pro-
vides that contracts costing in excess
Of $4,000 shall come under the pro-
vision of the law and also requires
subcontractors to comply with the
terms Of the law. In addition con-
tracts for services and the construc-
tion of ships and floating equipment
are required to obey the statute.
One of the most important Senate
amendments is the one barring from
bidding on government contracts en-
ployers found guilty by appropriate
courts of violating the provisions of
the National Labor Relations Act.
The minimum wage provision Of the
law is strengthened to protect wage
rates.
Another important amendment har-
monies the child labor standards in
the Walsh Healey Act with the Fair
Labor Standards Act of 1888. The
child labor section of the Fair Labor
Standards Act fixes the age for en-
ployment of children at 16 years for
both females and males and also linn
its the age Of employment to 1S years
in hazardous occupations. The pres
ent Walsh-Healey Act fixes the age
limitation for males at 16 years and
for females at 1S years. The Senate
amendment brings the Walsh Healey
Act into conformity with the Fair La
Dor Standards Act by establishing the
age Of 16 for both males and females.

Dear Mr.. Howes:
The Montgomery County Sentinel
is to be congratulated for its editoria.
in the current issue entitled "Unfit to
Drive.
All over the country there is a
growing consciousness of the neces-
sity for the exercise of greater care

phasis cannot be placed upon the need
for concerted action to eliminate unfit
drivers from our highways.
Your editorial was very helpful and

to continue this crusade for safety.

Benny Coleman Of Rockville pitched
one hit ball Tuesday shutting out
Dickerson 8 : 0.
Day at third base, while still high
school player, looks very promising
and bids fair to be a real find. Shaw,
Russell, Howard, E. Hutchinson, and
Beane proved the great menace to
Dickerson at bat. While this was
going on Bonnie had his curves break
ing just like he wanted them and had
it not been for slow bunt, which he
himself failed to field, he would have
had a no-hit-game.
Colesville beat Glen Echo II to 10.
Frank Valdenar's regular pitchers
took holiday and he had to call upon
NJ. Godfrey, his left fielder, who
pitched hit ball for 6 innings until
the heat got to him. He was replaced
by Lechlider, the regular third base
man for Co,esville, who found the GO
ing rough and the weather hot. Coles
vile holds on to second place with 8
wins and no defeats.

Tigers 9 l at Takoma thereby hold
