 LABOR DEPT SAYS

The following staHement is issued by the Territorial Department oI Labor. Juneau
 It has been rumored recently that children of any age may be en- ployed in the industries of Alaska owing to the shortage of adult Ia- bor and because Of the national emergency. THIS IS FALSE.
 The Fair Labor Standards act of 193S sets the basic employment age at 16 years for general employ ment and Is years for any occupaz tion declared to be of a hazardous nature It is to be remembered that the Fair Labor Standards act coy CTS every employment which ships goods or materials in interstate commerce.
 Employers may protect them selves from unintentional violation by keeping on record a copy of the birth certificate of any youth be- twe#n the ages of 16 and IS years.
 Until there are official reyis- ions to existing interpretations of the Federal Act. il will be unlaW- ful to employ children below the age of 16 in any industry which ships in interstate commerce. All fishing, mining and numbering in dustries fall into the prohibited group"
