Utilities Permitted
To Lower Rates For
Public Housing

North Carolina and Pennsylvania
have ruled that utility companies may
give low preferential rates on electric
current to publicly owned and oper-
ated housing projects, the National
Association of Housing Officials
points out.
The special rate was justified by the
North Carolina utilities commission
on the grounds that it costs less to
serve an entire neighborhood with one
meter than to give the same service
to the average residential neighbor-
hood with individual lines and meters
for each family. Other reasons given
were that the credit risk involved in
Federally-supervised housing is small
er, that the company could probably
avoid promotional expense, and that
the government-aid homes equipped
with permanent appliances assured a
steady consumption of current by
those who otherwise might not be
able to buy it.
Most housing projects, according to
the association, receive some kind of
reduction in utility rates, but usually
they pust conduct their own negotia-
tions individually In North Caro-.
lima, Pennsylvania, and a few other
states, utility companies by state rul.
ing must act on a statewide basis.

WAGE Law AFFECTS
ONLY few WORKERS

Washington, D. C. While
the total number affected is consid-
cradle, taken as whole, the relative
incidence of the effect of the applica-
tion of the wage-hour laws new
higher hourly minimum wage is only
about 5.5 per cent of all employees
covered by the law. The higher wage,
which went into effect on October "a,
affects 100000 out of the 100000
covered; and it reaches only about II
per cent of the whole number of gain
fully employed workers. That is be-
cause only 100000 workers, out of the
100000 employed in connection
with interstate commerce, have been
receiving less than 80 cents an hour.
That makes it almost painless. 1t is
estimated that the average increase
in wage per hour will be about two
and one-half cents.
More to Get Shorter Week
Another effect is in the shortening
of the work week. Here, 100000
will get either the shorter work week
of 40 hours, or will get the overtime
Of those who have been getting an
average of $11.00 per week for Al
hours at 25 cents per hour, it will
mean at the present an increase to
$16.60 for the 42-hour week.
Those who have been working 40
hours week at 25 cents will get the
increased wage of 80 cents, amount
ing to $500 increase per week. 1t is
estimated that this will count up to a
total increase, in such payrolls, of
about $2,000,000 a week, or $780,
100000 year. Relative to a total
manufacturing wage of $10,000,000,-
900 in 1887, that amounts to about one
per cent increase in the purchasing
power of workers employed in manu-
featuring industries.
Food Professors Chief Foes
Only one-third of this increase in
the hourly wage will affect the south
ern states; while the northern states
will be affected by only one-third of
the incidence of the shorter work
week. The Barden amendment would
exempt 100000 workers in the food
processing industries.
Principal opponents for the wage
hour act are found in the food process
| ing industries. For instance, in par
ish in Louisiana, four school buses
were found parked among the shrimp
canneries, bringing the school chill
dren to the canneries instead of to
school. Doubtless local sentiment
supported this action. But it is ex-
ceptional, the nation over.

Help to Protect Your
Home from tuberculosis

1.-TWO distinctive contributions by
Ohioans to the Christmas Seal sale
have been made this year to the tu-
berculosis campaign" said Dr. Charles
A. Doan, president of the Ohio Public
Health Association.
Rockwell Kent, designer of this
years Christmas Seal, although born
at Tarrytown, N Y, traces his an
cestors back to the original founders
of Kent, Ohio.
Professor w. w. Charters, author
of the school health program to be
used throughout the nation during the
fall months, is director of the bureau
of educational research, Ohio State
University.
"These facts make for more than
ordinary interest on the part of all
tuberculosis workers throughout
Ohio" DR.. Doan said.
everywhere throughout the state
increased interest and activity are
noticeable on the part of the local or
ganizations. They are imbued with q
determination to take new citadels OF
the tubercle bacillus"
"Mr. Kent" stated DR.. Doan, "has
given US in this years Christmas Sea
realistic symbol of an angel with
outstretched arm against brilliant
blue background. A large double
barred cross, international badge Of
the fight against tuberculosis, is prom
inently displayed. The seal desigr
may well be interpreted as benedic
ton upon the fight which has beer
carried on so successfully against tu
berculosis during the past 33 years.
81 am sure" DR.. Doan stated, "tha
the people of Ohio are more inter
ested today than ever before in the
hope of complete conquest of tu
berculosis. To that end they will in
crease their generous support of tu
berculosis work by the purchase o.
the colorful Christmas Seals for ust
on their Christmas mail and pack
ages"
The thirty-third sale of Christina
Seals opens in Ohio December l ant
continues until Christmas Day.
