New Wage-Hour
 Bulletin Ready

In response to many requests for a summary of the findings and opinions of Federal and State govern mental agencies, trade unions, and community groups on the need for State wage-hour laws to supplement the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Division of Labor Standards of the United States Department of Labor has just published Why 4 State WGge-How LaaV NoqV Bulletin No. 47).
 This pamphlet tells in popular form what good State wage-hour law should provide and what it would do for the public, workers, employers, and farmers. A summary of the court record and the effects of existing wage and hour legislation concludes this story.
 Copies of this pamphlet, as long as the free supply lasts, are available on request from the Division of Labor Standards.

Meany Tells of Labors Co>oberaton On Defense Program
COLun1nist R. E. Croskey
(Reprinted from "The Catering
 House Embloye")

(RePruted from "Ihe Catering
 House Embloye")
 R. E. ''Dick'' CrOskey launches out as Labor COlumnist in the columns of the ''Union Times,''' a new labor weekly, recently started at New Haven Conn. His column headed ''I Remember,'' which was initiated by his re- counting story of a ''tip-off'' that occurred when he was Sec retary of the Cripple Creek and Victor, Colorado, Trades and Labor Assembly, and Press Agent for District 10, Western Federation of Miners, promises to become an interesting feature of what we trust will prove a real labor paper.
 The writer has known Dick CrOskey for over 40 years as an active trade-unionist, during which he served COlOradO's State Labor Department as State Sta- tistician, Employment Office manager, Local l8, Cooks, as Secretary for many years, the State Federation of Labor as Secretary and our own Inter- national as Organizer, at later date. A loyal, we'll informed trade uniOnist, a fluent and in- teresting writer and commen- tatOr.

 cent are over 45 years of age. Citing that fact, Congressman Joseph E. Casey (Dem., Mass.) declared:
 You know these men cannot get work in private industry. They are good American citizens, who want work to feed themselves and families. If the government refuses to pro- vide the jobs, they become paupers and face starvation. To condemn Americans to that fate is a new attitude in government. Marie Antoinette expressed it years ago when she said, Let them eat cake"
 COULD BE WORSE
 As tragic as will be the fate of the unemployed, it would be much worse had Congressman John Tabor (Rep., N. Y.) been able to put over his views. For eight years he has been maligning and slander- ing jObless workers.
 The New York Congressman de- clared that, if he had his way, he would wipe out relief entirely. Un- able to do that, he unsuccessfully attempted to cut the $875, ,OOO, 900 reported by the Appropriations Committee to $435, 100000
 ECONOMY SHOUTERS
 Pointing out a half-billion-dollar slash has been made in relief, Con- gressman John J. Cochran (Dem., Mo- caustically declared economy shouters have been doing lot of talking about reducing expenditures, but jobless workers alone have fallen under their ax.
 That led Congressman Lee E. Geyer (Dem., Calif.) to observe:
 What is their crime, that these workers are denied the right to earn an honest living for themselves and family? Simply this: They have

 The 1,2OO AFL machinists, who be- long to the International Association of Machinists, voted by 5 to l to end the strike. The 700 CIO machinists, members of the Steel Workers Or ganizing Committee, followed suit.
 RESISTED DRIVES
 The AFL machinists, who had successfully resisted a member of back-to-work drives in the course of the strike, finally voted to end tue walkOut after plea from their international secretary-treasurer, E. C. DavisOn. Davison read them a wire from OPM Associate Director General Sidney Hillman, in which they were urged to end the strike.
 Hillman had tried unsuccessfully to get the men back to work previously. So had President John P. Frey of the AFL Metal Trades Department, who personally took part i'll an unsuccess- ful attempt to lead metal trades work CTS through the picket lines. So had the Navy, which tried to get the men back by putting them under. civil service.
 Finally LAM President Harvey w. Brown flew here to try to get the men to go back. Almost every day during the walkout some new back to-work plan was launched. Despite this constant pressure, the AFL men in San Francisco and the CIO men in Oakland kept the strike solid.
 In commenting on the settle ment, LAM Local President Frank DeMattei said: ''The members were ready to return to work at any time a fair proposal was submitted, after Bethlehem accepted the closed shop" Harry Hook, one of the business agents, agreed with De- Mattel. E. F. Dillon, the other business agent, opposed the present settlement, but said he would abide by the majority vote.

How can we expect to succeed in our efforts to better the conditions of the working man if sO-called union men refuse to assist a pro- gressive labor organization?

QUESTION FROM ELIOT

Congressman Thomas T. Eliot (Dem., Mass.) insisted the question is not, ''Where are we going to get the mOney?" and added:
 ''We are going to hear l 500, ,OOO voices asking, How are we going to live? We are Americans, citizens of a rich and supposedly civilized country. We want chance to earn a living. We are willing to work for it. How are we going to live'?"
 Congressman James E. VanZandt (Rep., Pa.) the only Republican who protested the reduction, de- clared that Tabor ''insulted the in- telligence of Americans when he says that any man over 50 can get a job if he looks for it.''
 'I cannot accept the theory of practicing economy at the expense of our own people," VanZandt said, ''while we are pouring out billions of dollars to foreign gov ernments.''

A PRIVATE REPORTS

Congressmen got first-hand account of Alaska recently from California boy who is soldering as draftee with his companys headquarters located at Fort Richardson
 The boy is Jack Downey first class private of the Twenty y-ninth Engineers Recently, returning from field trip in the Cook Inlet district, Private Downey wrote long letter to his father in Sacra- mento The letter was in turn forwarded to Senator Downey of California
 few days after receiving the letter Senator Downey introduced a bill calling for additional pay of $50 per month for selectees, National Guards men and National Reserves drafted into service and retained for year. The added $50 a month according to the bill, would be paid the men after they have been discharged from the service, would be paid for each month a year they serve and would be paid in monthly instalments.
 In introducing the Dill, Senator Downey read Private Downeys letter to the Senate "a fascnat ing description of what young boys doing up in Alaska"
 Senators found the letter fascinating indeed. Several thousand words in length, it is probably of the most complete reports work of an army engineers in Alaska which has reached the National Capital There is room here for only a few excerpts.
 Private Downey started his letter by outlining to his Dad" just what sort of work he has been en- gagged in:
 T guess I'd better start in by telling some
 thing of the work we're doing and how we
 operate, so you'll have an idea of what takes
 to the remote spots reach and what we
 do there. I'm on the triangulation party of
 nine men Our job is simply to turn angles
 between various points < * The distance
 of single shot ranges from Is to 30 miles,
 so you can the territory and the
 amount of country have an opportunity
 to see"
 Then he went into long description of the tides in the Cook Inlet country He told of how the boat taking the engineers from Fort Richardson to their field stations had run aground sand bar and almost "flopped over"
 The wildfe interested him, too, as related:
 Tt didn't take long to discover that
 all the bear stories about this country weren't
 just tall tales. For the very next morning
 made the mistake of starting out without
 guns We had expected to stick the

HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 bat do not compel"
THURSDAY, AUGUST T

THURSDAY, AUGUST '
 Since each day in which war de- stroys life and property is of tre- mendous significance the stars are read with sense of uncertainty. What never has been will be, it seems. Today an adverse sign threatens men in authority whether in Government or in armed forces.
 HEART AND HOME: This should be a fortunate date for beginning important work. It promises much for executive tasks and is auspici- ous for the head of the family While public affairs may be under threatening and perplexing influ- ences, whatever concerns the home should be harmonious and happy. Contrast between the peace of the household and the conflict of war will be felt under this configura- ton. Drama is indicated for the sons and sacrifice for the daugh- ters of the family.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Coordina- tion and apportionment of defense work will cause overwork on the part of officials entrusted with key duties in Washington Illness and even the closing of important careers have been prognosticated Hearty commendation instead of ignorant criticism should be ac- corded men and women who carry heavy burdens of responsibility Two changes in the Presidents Cabinet have been forecast for an early date.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: The Berlin chart is of evil omen for Germany where Nazi leaders will be unfortunate. Astrologers be- lieve that Hitler, who moves &C., cording to the direction of the stars, realizes that he has reached the zenith of his power which will decline until he comes to an in- glorious end. It has been prophe- sled, but not by his personal seers, that he would die before the new year. This interpretation of his horoscope is not unanimous and he may last another year or two.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of good fortune, but for some there may be disappointment in large ambi- tions. Travel and military service for men are foretold.
 Children born on this day will be energetic and courageous. Out standing success is presaged for these boys and girls under strong Sun influences.

BUY DEFENSE BONDS

No suspect gets his reputation ruined by having his name splash ed in the headlines unless Hoover definitely has the goods on him. There are no raids on the private files of political organizations such as staged by the Dies Committee. Hoover is tough, but he respects the rules of the game-especially the fundamental liberties on which this nation was founded.
 Labor, indeed the whole nation in times like these. is lucky to have him on the job. sb

from the Attorney General him. self.
 It was the sorry example of William J. Burns under Harding that made Hoover resolve that every one of his agents must be a college graduate. That rule is followed even today, when the FBI has expanded ten times its step back in the Cool idge days. A college degree, some times even a law degree, is just as essential to an FBI job as West Point and Annapolis are to com missions in the Army and Navy. UP FROM PLAIN BEGINNINGS
 Despite the atmosphere of guns and gangsters surrounding the FBI, there is nothing very sensational about either Hoover,s past or his present. He came from very plain surroundings, and up until few years ago still lived with his mother in the none too fashionable Wash ington house in which he was born. His family has been family of government workers, and his brother was Chief of the Bureau of Navigation of the commerce de- partment.
 No family influence or political pull pushed Hoover ahead in life, and probably his success stems chiefly from ceaseless. unremitting work plus personal integrity, plus scrupulous care not to infringe upon the civil liberties.
 The CIO has been suspicious of Hoover and sometimes accused him of planting labor spies. Unques- tionably if there are saboteurs in- side national defense factories, Hoover will have men planted to find them out. But the real fact is. though the CIO may not appre- ciate it, that Hoover is one of the most circumspect protectors of civil liberties in the country.
