1t isn't going to help very much to
replace Miss Perkins with someone
else if Mr.. Roosevelt is going to CON
tinuo playing ball with the labor lob
byists and retain his political labor al
liances. A more promising plan than
that Of forcing him to change one set
Of acQuiescent men for another set
equally acquiescent would seem to be
to build up in Congress a vigorous,
persistent, critical spirit which will
prod and probe the Executive and the
many boards and commissioners ere
ated by him into abandoning incom-

Council Studies
Overtime Pay

Common council today gave
preliminary approval to an ordi-
nance which would compensate
salaried employees for overtime by
equivalent time off up to so hours
within n year and by cash for
overtime in excess of so hours a
year.
The ordinance passed first and
second reading but was then laid
on the table for further considera-
ton.
Since the ordinance, presented
by Councilman William A. Com
stock, sets 40 hours as the standard
work week, many city employees
now working only 35 hours a week
will face longer hours. The 35-
hour week. of five seven-hour days,
was set during the depression as a
means Of spreading employment.
The cash overtime paid will be
at the employees regular salary
scale and before any employe can
be worked on cash overtime the
department head must obtain per-
mission from common council.
The only other cash overtime to
salaried employees will be paid to
those leaving city employment
for the armed services. Overtime
to hourly-rated workers is not
affected by the ordinance as II is
covered in the city charter.
