Payment Of Overtime
In Defense Stamps
Legal Under Law

CLEVELAND, O. - While
workers cannot waive their
rights to time and a half for
overtime over 40 hours under ex-
listing law, they may voluntarily
accept straight time in cash and
the balance in defense securities,
Grace G. Glascott, regional di-
rector of the Wage and Hour
Division, U. S. Department of
Labor, said this week.
"The Division has received sew
eral inquiries as to whether en-
ployees may work more than 40
hours a week at straight time"
Miss Glascott said. Under the
Fair Labor Standards Act, they
cannot change the law by waiv-
ing the overtime provision. How
ever, if workers voluntarily wish
to make a contribution to the
Victory program, they may make
an agreement with their employ
ers to accept their overtime COM
rensation in defense stamps,
bonds or similar Government Sc
curities. In that way they
would be aiding the prosecution
Of the war and building up for
themselves a safe type of saw
ings."

ONE BLOOD
We seem to be given to the OBJ
servance of special days, weeks
and occasions. This may be over
done but it does give an opportun-
ity to study and appreciate cert
ain important persons and truths.
February 22-2S is Brotherhood
Week. This was a good time to
think of the valuable relationship.
Dictatorships and persecution of
minor races, religions and polite
al groups have made US more con-
cerned with each other.
This special week was sponsored
by the Councils of Catholics, Pro
testants and Jews. Experiences
in Europe and their possible in
fluence in American life have mag
nified the danger of persecution.
No other group in America
knows the handicaps from race
hatred as the Negro knows It..
While our brothers of the other
race preach the doctrine of broth
erhood, we hope they will realize
that the best way to promote this
idea is to begin with proper treat
ment and brotherly love for the
Negro.
St. Paul had more right for
boasting superiority than any ay-
erage person of his day. But he
told the learned Athenians that
God-hath made ONE BLOOD
ALL NATIONS OF MEN for to
dwell On all the face of the earth
Acts. 1925. Proper recognition
of this truth and the practice OF It
will produce genuine brotherhood.
