"The act was fully in effect but a
short time, liberal provision was made
for the exemption of defense indus
tries, and even general exemptions
were permitted many months before
the outbreak of war in September
1885,"
Changes In Law Studied
Necessary notifications of the
wage and hour law "to provide fol
optimum efficiency in defense indus
tries in the scheduling Of weekly
hours" are now being studied, the
report revealed.
In the calendar year 1910, the Wage
and Hour Division made 28,795 inspec
tions, and secured for about 100000
employees the restitution of $5,252,73
Restitution payments are now totaline
more than 100000 month.
The report estimated that the 81
cent general minimum and wage or
ders establishing 3212 to 40 cent min
ina have increased pay rolls in low
wage industries by more than $10O,
100000 annually.

alton on radio revenues and restrict
the issuance of station licenses.
John B. Haggerty, president of the
International Allied Printing Trades
Council, said five-year study showed
such legislation was necessary to
counteract the inroads of radio into
revenues Of newspapers and other
printing industries.
Unions to Seek Publishers Aid
The radio cost his unions $4,000
jobs, Haggerty added. He said the
Printing Trades Council will ask, first,
that Congress permit the Federal
Communications Commission to issue
licenses for radio stations only to
persons living in the community
where the station will operate and,
second, that stations be permitted to
devote only 25 per cent of their time
on the air to commercial programs.
These proposals, together with de-
mands for direct taxation of the radio
industry, will be backed by the print
ing trades, which employ 100000
workers, and Haggerty will ask 49,
900 publishers and printing execu-
tives to join the campaign.

Steady

Huntington Park, Calif.-At the
last regular meeting of Local Union
No. 113 the attendance was only fair,
but we feel this was due to the rains,
or does it rain in California.
The members seem to be content
with allowing a few to take care of
things and then complain if things
do not suit them. President George
Pace was in the chair and conducted
the meeting in his usual capable man
ner.
Speaking Of officers of the local
performing their duties in an efficient
manner, let us say a word about Ed
Highfield, defense secretary, and the
shop committee. They are doing a
wonderful job in getting our local
Strengthened out financially. Now that
work at both the Wallace China Com
pany plant and the Vernon Kilns
plant is steady, we can see no reason
why we should have any delinquent
members. No one should be behind
in their dues or assessments.
1t shouldn't be long now before we
have some entertainment from oul
social committee. There is some talk
of another bowling contest between
the Vernon and Wallace shops. The
last time they met the Vernon came

Lower Wages Is Aim

Under the Walsh -Healey Act, there
is no ceiling for wages if they are
determined to be the prevailing mini
mum pay for any industry or locality.
Thus, for steel, the wage-hour mini
mum is 40 cents. The Walsh-Healey
minimum is 65 cents. SO the battle
against the Walsh Healey Act is in
reality a battle for lower wages.
The argument Of the Army, Navy
and industrialists is that the exist
cnce Of two wage regulating bodies
unnecessarily complicates defense pro
duction. Elimination of the Walsh
IIealey Act would eliminate the high
er standard and open the field OF
government contracts to more manu-
facturers, they say.
Some Refuse u. S. Contracts
At present, some contractors pro
ducng for the consumer market at
lower wage-hour rates often refuse
TO take government contracts at
Walsh-Healey rates because it woulc
upset their wage structure and bring
into the plant another set of inspec
tors and regulations.

$500 In Back Wages
Puid Apparel Employees

Cleveland, O.-Approximately 200
employees of apparel establishments in
the Southern half of Ohio will receive
about $2500 as the difference between
what they were paid and the amounts
they should have received under the
minimum wage and overtime provis-
ions of the Fair Labor Standards Act.
The apparel industry of the South
ern half Of Ohio is centered chiefly in
and around Cincinnati, according to
report made today to Grace G. Glas-
colt, Regional Director of the Wage
and Hour Division, U. S. Department
of Labor, by Horace R. Justice, Branch
Manager of the Cincinnati office.
Inspectors of the Division working
out Of the Cincinnati branch office
and the Columbus field office are COM
pleting an industry-wide campaign for
compliance in the apparel industry.
The report shows IS establishments in
the Southern half Of the State. The
inspectors report violations Of the
Federal Wage and Hour law in as
plants, found II where there were no
violations, learned II were not COW
cred by the Act and reported two on
the list were not found or out of busi-
ness.
There are about 63G0 employees in
the apparel establishments inspected
the report shows. Most of these
plants, according to Miss Glascott
manufacture mems clothing, and most
Of the employees are members of a
union. Inspectors reported the chief
violations were failure to keep ade-
quate records, with maintenance mer
in the plant not included in the list
of covered workers ranking second in
the list of violations. Some estab.
lishments, the inspectors reported
were employing learners at sub-mini.
mum wages without the required GER,
tificates.
The highest amount of restitution
or payment of back wages and unpaic
overtime, was determined as $685.
due to Is employees, while the low
was $1.26 due to two employees, the
report showed
The apparel industry is covered by
an Administrative Wage Order which
fixes the minimum rate of pay al
from 321a to 40 cents an hour, &C
cording to the type of goods or ma
terial worked upon, Miss Glascott said
There are 26 divisions to the wage
order, she pointed out.
Employees whose work is necessar!
to the production of goods that mov'
in interstate commerce, although the.
may not be actively engaged in th'
production of garments, are covered
by the Act, Miss Glascott said.
One such maintenance man, an in
spector reported, who worked in tn
company's greenhouse as we'll as il
the plant, was Carried on the payroll
as florist"
Before learners can be employed il
any industry, Miss Glascott pointe'
out, it is necessary for the employe
to obtain special certificate from tn
Wage and Hour Division permitting
the employment of such learners a
,, sub-minimum wages. The same re
quirement applies to the employment
; of handicapped workers at sub-mini
mum wages, although different Ger
tifcate is issued, she said.

Civil Rights Dangers
In Stute Defense Bills

New York City, (ILNS).-Safe-
guards to civil liberties are lacking in
two of the "model national defense"
bills drafted by the Federal-State
Conference on Law Enforcement
Problems of National Defense and
now before the legislatures of most
states, the American Civil Liberties
Union charges. The bills requiring
amendment, in the opinion of the
union, are the Model Sabotage Pre-
vention Act, and the Model State
Guard Act.
"Although the language employed
in Section II of the Model Sabotage
Prevention Act is that Of the Ma
tional Labor Relations Act, there ap
pears to be some danger that this
law might be used to curtail the
civil rights of labor" the statement
declared. "a clause reading as fol-
lows should be added to Section II
of the bill: No act in the exercise
of the foregoing rights of labor which
would have been lawful but for the
passage of this act shall be deemed
lawful under this Act"
The union also suggests amend
ments to the Model State Guard Act
as follows:
"(a) The guard, when called into
action in civil disputes, should not
enforce martial law so long as the
civil courts are functioning.
"(b) All persons arrested by the
state guard should be transferred
forthwith to the civil authorities.
&c The guard be subject to civil
suit"
