Remarkable Coins Made
By Labor In Kentucky

Louisville, Ky.-Under the leader
ship of Edward H. Weyler, A. F. Of
L. representative in Kentucky, and
with the cooperation of the State Fed
Grafton Of Labor and international
union representatives, more than
$4,000 new members have been added
to the A. F. of l.. unions in Kentucky
this year. In every case closed shop
agreements embodying increases in
wages, vacations with pay and better
working conditions have been gained.
The packing industries in Louisville,
unorganized at the first of the year,
are now working under closed shop
conditions with 1000 workers members
in the Butcher Workers Unions. The
Teamsters Union has signed hundreds
of new contracts and practically every
Kentucky line is now organized. VIM.
l.. Fits, representative Of the Wood
workers and Carpenters, has installed
six locals in Kentucky.
Five local unions of the Distillery
Workers have been established in
Louisville. Closed shop agreements
with increases in pay and vacations
have been obtained with the distil-
leries. A charter recently was in
stalled for Western Union employees
in the State.

agents of industry when they try to
present legislation on labor's behalf.
His description of the display Of dim
nerware, and of the reaction of some
of our best known politicians to the
fact that we even manufacture such
products in this nation, was an anus
ing and most enlightening point, very
clearly illustrating how we each and
every one must get behind this "Buy
American" movement and educate our
buying public.
Mr.. Lewis speech was brief and to
the point and we adjourned with the
wish that all who can will support
Mr.. Lewis at the polls next Tuesday,
for we must stay behind the men who
are working so actively in our behalf.
The general outlook for continued
full time operation seems very favor
able and we hope it proves so. The
shop is on full time in all depart
ments. There is rumor out that we
have new decorating setup just south
of US and it seems an impossibility to
get the people interested in union
affiliation.
We had very sad incident happen
here last Saturday morning wher
Brother Wilbur Herrington's home
burned to the ground. We are glad tc
say all Of the family escaped unharm-
ed, but it was terrible blow to the
brother. He can rest assured that
anything we can do to alleviate the
loss will not be left undone. Wilbur
has been warehouseman in Minerva
for years.
The biggest news of the week is the
Mckeesport game. Minerva fans vii
go by chartered train at nine a. m
to the wilds of Pennsylvania, to cheer
the home team. The Cronin China
Company usually advances the tickets
and train fare out of the coming
checks and will probably do likewise
this year. So we will see everyone
at McKeesport.

CITIES CUT FIREMEN'S HOURS

Washington, ID. c. - Twenty four
hour duty for firemen is on a gradual
but steady decline in American cities,
a survey by the u. S. Bureau Of La
Dor Statistics reveals. The continuous
24hour schedule, which was common
in the past, is being changed mainly
by eliminating the ingle-platoon plans
or by revising the double platoon
schedule to break up the long stretch
of duty. The international Association
Of Fire Fighters, A. f. of l.. affiliate,
has long worked for abolition of the
24Hour schedule, supporting the
three-platoon system, providing for
S-hour periods of duty.

PAYS BACK
WAGES FOR OVERTIME

Cleveland O.-Restitution amount
ing to $4,000 is being paid to Is past
and present employees of Waterways
Fuel and Dock Company, Inc, 3490
Gould Avenue, Cincinnati, as result
of an injunction obtained in the Fed
eral Court at Cincinnati by the Wage
and Hour Division, U. S. Department
of Labor
The injunction, signed by Judge
John H. DruIfel, and based on a COM
plant filed by Arthur f. Reyman,
regional attorney for the Division,
was consented to by officials Of the
company. 1t was the first injunction
against wholesale coal company in
Ohio. The injunction permanently re-
strains the company from further vio-
lations of the Fair Labor Standards
Act.
The complaint alleges the company
failed to pay time and onc-half for
overtime as required by the Federal
Wage and Hour law, and failed to
keep complete and accurate records.
The Act, Attorney Reyman inform
ed the court, requires payment of
time and one half for all hours work
ed in excess of IA per workweek dur
ing the first year the Act was in eff
feet, and in excess of AZ hours since
October 2l, 1889. The overtime pay
will start after the first 40 hours on
October "a, 1910. Attorney Reyman
said.
The minimum wage provision of the
Act was not involved in the case, he
added. The company has paid in ex-
cess of the minimum wage set by the
Act-25 cents an hour for the first
year and 80 cents an hour since Oc-
tober "a, 1899, Reyman said.
