Pressed on the subject, the third

which ought to entitle him to a
Sabattical year-or something Ger
tainly it must be something of a
record.
Talk is cheap, but it cost Giles
Yeoman Newton 500 to file Of
I ficially as a candidate for Congress
rom the eighth district. He there
by became the first qualified can
didate for next Mays polling and
crved notice on all and sundry TO
out up or shut up, something that
hundreds of other suspected-candi-
dates, including half dozen men
toned for governor, seem rather re-
iuctant to do.
Newton was in the first primary
in the eighth last time, but didn't
get enough votes to get entangled
n the court row that followed the
runoff between w. O. Burgin and
c. B. Deane
Operative Willard l. Calling, of
the State Bureau of Investigation,
has just furnished convincing proof
that the prime assets needed to de-
tect the perpetrators of a myster-
ious crime are still common sense
and a willingness to keep everlast-
ingly at the case, come hell or high
water.
The public prints have recently
announced the admission by Need
ham Garner, Kenneth Chance and
two others that they were occupants
Of an automobile from which the
shots were fired which brought
death to Clifton Snider, young Win
StOr-Salem man on a hunting trip
in Carteret county.
They claim the shots were fired
almost blindly by Garner at a light
which they mistook for the "gleam
from a deer's eye" and the SBI
| agent says he accepts their version
Largely because there is no other
Jiscoverable motive
That was what made the case SO
hard. After absolving Snider's COM
oanion through a day Of intensive
grilling, and eliminating any "tri-
angle, gambling or other possible
complication through thorough
checkup in Winston, Agent Calling
had to start all over afresh with
nothing except the fact that the man
l.had been shot dead in his tent at
a. m. on the morning Of November
So he just began talking to every
body in the section, sitting up nights
in his car on the dark and lonely
road which passes by the spot
| where Snider was killed and from
| which the shots were obviously
fired. Finally he learned that car

He just kept talking and asking
questions and finally learned that
The four men had been out that
night and had pot returned until
carly morning They first said they
rot IN early-about 9 or ten o'clock.
That clinched it. They had lied once
and couldn't explain it. Continued
questioning brought confessions
from all. It wasn't spectacular or
sclentlflc it was just plug away and
Keep plugging but it worked.

Cotton Industry Asks
For 32H2 Cents An Hour
Recommendation Submitted to Wage
Hour Administrator Andrews Would
Raise Pay of S13,O0O,0OO

Washington, d. C.-The report of
Industry Committee No. /, appointed
by Elmer F. Andrews, Administrator
of the Fair Labor Standards Act of
1888, submitted report to Mr.. An
drews recommending that thirty
two and one-half cents an hour mini
mum wage rate be established in the
cotton, silk and rayon industries eff
fective July l. The new rate would
take the place of the present rs cent
rate applicable to all industries com
ing under the Fair Labor Standards
Act.
The minimum rate which the COM
mittee recommended affects approx
mately 65O,OOO workers. 1t was esti-
mated that when it goes into effect
around 181 900 textile workers in the
lowest brackets, mostly employed in
the cotton industry of the Southern
States, will receive an annual wage in
crease Of nearly $l3,O0O,O00.
Industry Committee No. l consists
of Donald M. Nelson, chairman, and
IA members. The committee voted
the 3212 cent minimum by a split bal
lot Of Ii to 6. The dissenting men,
bers of the committee, all from the
South, asked that the recommended
scale be rejected because Of alleged
differential living costs for the work
ers in that region as compared with
living costs in the North.
In answer to this contention, the
committee report, referring to a re-
cent study of living costs made by the
Works Progress Administration in
conjunction with the Bureau of Labor
Statistics Of the Department Of Labor
said: "Plainly the average difference
in costs in an equivalent standard of
living in the two regions (the North
and the South) was very slight"
The committee also disputed claims
that the new minimum would reduce
employment possibilities or materially
affect prices, subjects which the Fair
Labor Standards Act requires indus,
try committees to explore in making
their recommendations.

ber of the miners scale committee

SO YEARS AGO

Washington, d. Con- the second
of May 1881, 5000 journeymen bakers
in the city of New York walked out of
their bake shops informing the bosses
they would no longer tolerate the 16
and 1S hour day as we'll as other in
humane treatment to which they had
been subjected. Today, according to
officials of the Bakery and Confection-
cry Workers International Union of
America, the bitter experience of un-
organized helplessness in the past
have become valuable lessons to the
workers employed in the baking indus
try, the lesson teaching the necessity
of organization. "The united front
opposition of employers in this, the
year 1889, appears to be repetition
of the situation So years ago." officials
said, "and the only answer is organ
ization."

Frisco's Labor
Council Orders

L. A. Unions Condemn Oh.
sons Industrial Relations
Secretary

The Labor Council of San Fran
cisco, California, has voted to elect a
board Of delegates to try George Kid
we'll, State Director of Industrial Re-
lations, on charges of disloyalty to the
American Federation of Labor and the
labor movement.
At the same time, the Central La
Dor Council of Los Angeles adopted
lengthy resolution "wholeheartedly
denouncing" Kidwell as traitor to
the American Federation of Labor
and the American trade union move
ment."
Both actions were outgrowths OF
KidwelPs recent lurid testimony in
Washington that the American Fed
Grafton of Labor developed the West
wood lumber mill dispute in an eff
fort to discredit the National Labor
Relations Board and the Olson admin
istration.
The San Francisco decision to try
Kidwell followed introduction by five
council delegates of a resolution de-
nouncing his Washington testimony
as "malicious" and asking the coun-
Gil to officially brand him as traitor
Gus to the American Federation of La
bor."
The C. |. O. reporters in Washing
ton referred to George Kidwell as a
veteran A. F. of l.. leader" AS usual
the C. |. O. scribes were not very well
informed about the record of then
fellow traveller.
1t is true that George Kidwell has
for many years aspired to become ar
A. F. Of l.. leader but he never made
the grade. He never needed any coax
ing to declare his candidacy for an.
other job. On two occasions Kidwel
was a candidate for secretary-treas-
urer of the California State Fedora
tion of Labor and lost by substantial
majorities. Several times Kidwel
aspired to be vice president of the
California State Federation Of Labor
and failed.
Kidwell has also harbored lifelong
ambitions to become political leader
He was a candidate for Congress anC
for the California Assembly, which is
the lower house of the California Leg.
islature. In each instance he received
wholesome drubbing.
Kidwell is a pal of the notorious
Harry Bridges and has at all times
taken pride in his left wing affilia
tions. He was active in the abortive
California Farmer-Labor Party ant
more recently in the Communist pro
noted Partisan League.
He has never held an important
office in the labor movement, and al
though he often tried, nevcr landed {
political job until Governor Olson o.
California recently appointed him a:
Director of the Department of Indus
trial Relations.

$845, 900, 900 Fund
For Housing Is
Given Approval
Senate Committee Approves
Measure To Aid Low-ln-
come Groups

Washington, D. C.-The Senate
Committee on Education and Labor
approved the bill introduced by Sen
ator Robert F. Wagner of New York
increasing by $8O0,0OO,00O the fund
for loans to local housing authorities
for the construction of low-rent hous-
ing and the promotion of slum clear
ance.
The bill also authorizes the expen-
diture of $45,COO,0CO to subsidize rent
ais in housing promoted by the bill in
cases where the subsidy is necessary
to bring rents down to the paying ca
pacity of the small-income groups
which the housing is designed to
benefit.
Senator Allen J. Ellender Of Louis
lana, chairman of the subcommittee
which handled the bill, said it merely
gives the United States Housing Au-
thority permission to borrow the
money for loans, which would be re-
payable to the Housing Authority and
will not be included in the public debt.
"The authorization is only modest
beginning in the solution of the prob
lens Of the slums and the ill-housed,' y
he declared. "Unless additional funds
are made available for new projects,
a substantial interruption in employ
ment and construction is inevitable"
Supported by A. F. of L..
The Wagner Bill carries the unani-
nous support of the American Fedora
ton of Labor. In statement before
the Ellender subcommittee during the
hearings on the measure, Harry C.
Bates, chairman Of the Housing Com
mittee of the American Federation of
Labor, said:
"Today there are more than 1,OOO,-
900 building and construction me-
chanics totally unemployed and de-
pendent on work relief for their live
lihood."
Pointing out that the $800,000,0OC
loans for slum clearance and low rent
housing authorized by Congress in
1887 and 1888 twill provide total
of 270,0O0,OO0 man-hours of work at
the site and $257, 900, 600 which will be
paid in wages to laborers employed at
the site of construction" Mr.. Bates
continued:
"In addition, the present program
will result in an even larger indirect
employment in the production of build
ing materials and will yield an even
larger payroll to the workers in in
dustries serving this new construc-
ton.
Work for $4,000 Visioned
"The proposed amendments will
double these benefits to the building
workers by providing 54O,O00;OOO man.
hours of employment at the site OF
two full years work to 100000 build.
ing mechanics and laborers. 1t will
proportionately increase the employ.
ment, the purchasing power and the
business activity in the industries
which must service this construction
with materials and equipment"

Continuous Show Sunday
Cdnneries Are Placed
Under Child Labor Law

Washington, D. C. (AFLWNS).-
Katherine F. Lenroot, chief of the
Children's Bureau of the Department
of Labor, ruled that the child labor
provisions Of the Fair Labor Stand
ards Act of 1888 applied to canneries.
She warned employers that the law
prohibits shipment of goods in inter-
state commerce produced in plants
employing children under 16 years of
age.
