State Labor Dept. Collects
100000 In 2 Years
On Violations

Workers got $20,549 in back pay
last month from Connecticut en-
ployers who violated the wage-hours
laws. One firm was forced to pay
more than $4,000 to 1868 employees.
100000 TOTAL
These latest collections have
brought the total amount collected
for wage-hour violations in this
state to 5000, 1914 since the State
Labor Department took over the
enforcement of the Federal Fair
Labor Practice Act two years ago.
More than 5000 employees have
received restitution of wages dur
ing this same period, with an aver
age payment i'm excess of $35 to
each person.
The sum collected arose from
failure of employers to pay the
minimum wage set by law or, in
other instances, failure to pay over
time rates in accordance with the
Federal statute.

War Cutting Into
Musicians'R Ranks

The war has cut deeply into the
ranks of the musicians unions in New
England. In some locals of the Ameri-
can Federation of Musicians the mem
berstip has been cut as much as $50

armed services or taking defense jobs.
This was reported at the semi-amual

American Federation of Musicians
held in New Britain Sunday.
Frank B. Field, president of the
South Norwalk Local 81, and of the

of the New Britain local, was chair
man on the committee for arrange
ments. The spring conference will
be held in April in Boston.
