RULING GIVEN ON
 OUTSIDE EMPLOYE
Administrator of Federal Wage-Hour Law Renders
 important Decision

Hartford, Con-, August 10-The time spent Ey an outside employe driving a automobile on business of his employer must be considered as time worked under the fair labor standards act, according to an opin- ion released today by State Labor Commissioner Cornelius Danaher, in his capacity as administrator of the federal wage-hour law.
 The statement was specifically directed to the case of an isurance company with outside employees en- gagged in the insurance business, but 1t was pointed out that the princi- pie involved would apply equally to other outside employees.
 Since a employe who drives an automobile is required to expend continuous effort and eergy and has no opportunity to relax sleep, eat or otherwise pursue his, own iter- ests," MT. Danaher said, "it Is the opinion of the wage and hour divi- sion that all the time which an employe spends in driving a auto- mobile on the business of his em- ployer is time worked under the lair labol standards act. If, how ever. an employe works regu .ar'J at a fixed place of employment, tht time he spends driving to and iron work Is not ordinarily to be consld' ersd time spent on the business q his employer and need not b' treated as hours worked"

CITY SETS UP
 RELIEF CHEST
 FOR ALL FUNDS

St. Paul, Minn., Aug 10-(UP)- A Community and War Relief Chest of St. Paul. Inc, has been organized to consolidate all the ap- peaIs for contributions from social and war agencies and avoid the confusion of the last war, when numerous agencies conducted fund campaigns almost every other week.
 Approximately 50 organizations are members of the new organiza- tion. including the Community Fund, the Civilian Defense Coun- ell and the USO.
 Suggestions for coordination of appeals were made during the first World War, and United War Work Flnd-whose sponsors are all most identical with the present members of the USO-was estab- lished. A United Charities organi- zation also was created, but its well fare agencies still conducted sep- arate campaigns for funds.
 Virtually all of the drives, how ever, were made by the Red, White ard Blue armies and by the four minute men. These organizations collected money for liberty loans, for social work, and for the War Work Fund.
 The competition and aggressive nes of the three armies set a na- tional record when they raised an $8y yOO0, 900 liberty loan in four days 4w- TNN 1tNnVfYy drive, SIT 7,500,000 was raised in three days.
 The four minute men gave four minute speeches for war drives at every assembly and gathering. The project, originating in St. Paul, spread throughout the country.
 The Red, White and Blue armies were kept intact after the war and in 1920 were organized into the St.. TN1 fund

SEA RAID:
On australia

The cities of Sydney and Newcas-
tie on Australia's southeast coast
were shelled by Japanese forces in
the first sea raid on that country's
mainland since the beginning of the
war.
Termed nuisance raids by Gen.
eral MacArthur's headquarters,
these first attacks caused little dam
age and there were few casualties.
Submarines were used for the at
tack.
At Sydney the shells whistled over
the city so fast it was impossible
to estimate their number. Newcas-
tie was shelled for 80 minutes. Both
cities were BACKED out and resi-
dents hustled to their air raid shell
tiers.
The attacks came only a week
after four of the enemy's midget
submarines were destroyed as they
attempted a sortie into Sydney's
harbor. Also in the same week
three and possibly four other subs
were destroyed in the southwest Pa
cific.
Increased submarine activity off
the lower Australian coast was be-
lieved to be aimed at cutting Al
lied communications and supply
lines as well as an attempt to divert
United Nations naval units from the
more major scenes of action, I.E.,
| between Alaska and Hawaii.

WAAC ENLISTMENTS

Thousands of determined women,
eager to don the WAAC uniform, are
driving WAAC officials wacky.
The campaign for enlistments in
the Women's Army Auxiliary corps
has succeeded too well. Maj. Oveta
Culp Hobby and her chief lieuten-
ants, Mrs. Arthur Woods and Mrs.
Genevieve Forbes Herrick, have a
bear by the tail and they know it.
Sad truth is that there cannot pos
sibly be more than 500 WAC Off
cer-candidates taken in now. No
"auxiliaries," that is, non-officer
WAAC's, can be recruited until the
officers have been trained, possibly
around September Is. The greatest
number of WAAC's that can be TAX
en- in this year is estimated at %, 900,
and all of these will be subjected to
a minimum of four weeks training.
This leaves some 275, 900 disappoint-
ed would-be WAAC's out of an esti-
mated registration of 100000.
Toughest job of all falls upon
the chief recruiting officers in
the nine army corps areas. 1t
is their job to sort out the WAAC
registrants and select the lucky
women. Those chosen then must
face a series of very stiff apti-
tude tests.

GAS RATIONINC:
Revolt In House

The congressional fight against
nationwide gasoline rationing broke
into the open when Rep. Jed john
son of Oklahoma introduced con-
current resolution opposing such
step until the house gets proof that
the move is necessary.
The resolution declared that there
is a surplus of oil in Texas, Kansas,
Oklahoma and other producing
states and that nationwide rationing
would cripple the war effort. The
War Production board proposed the
rationing program to conserve rub
Der rather than gasoline, of which
there admittedly is no shortage.
The Johnson resolution was sub
mitted following boisterous caucus
session of 100 members of the house.
The resolution instructed Rep. Rich
ard M. Kleberg of Texas, who was
elected chairman, to appoint COM
mittee of five house members to con-
fer with a similar committee of the
senate to take necessary steps.

IT'S fought in the mind. It's fought with will to
i win. It's fought with a belief in cause worth
dying for.
That WILL that belief, is known as morale.
Our enemies have had years of indoctrnation. They
have been conditioned to believe themselves part of
a new order" to which the contribution of their
lives is small but a-important They believe them
selves cogs in vast machine.
Our soldiers do not fight that way-because they
do not live that way Theirs is the belief in the sane
tity of the individual
To maintain their morale in the American way, the
USO has devoted all its time and energy since Prac-
tically the beginning of CONSUMPTION.
1t has done this by stating and maintaining club
houses near all training camps and in our outlying
