.Frown on Suspension
Of State Labor Laws
Current Standards
Believed Sufficient
For u. S. War Effort

Blanket suspension of State labor
laws was froWned on today by the
War, Navy and Labor Departments,
War Production Board, War Man
power Commission, Maritime Com
mission and the Office of Defense
Transportation.
In a statement prepared for State
labor commissioners, the seven Gov
eminent agencies pointed out that
temporary modification of certain
labor standards has been permitted
under proper safeguards and at the
same time maximum long time pro-
duction has been aided by preserving
laws regulating hours of work and
establishing safe working condi-
tons"
War Output Not Curtailed.
Because of the effective use of
power to grant variations in meeting
war emergencies the agencies re-
ported that state labor standards
on hours and working conditions
have not interfered with war pro-
duction."

be necessary during the war period
to insure maximum production, the
agencies recommended preservation
OF the following basic principles.
l. A maximum 48-hour week.
2. An eight-hour day.
3. One day of rest in seven.
4. Adequate rest and meal periods.
Minors Safeguarded.
5. Adaptation of hours of work and
working conditions to the age and
sex OF the worker, except that there
must be no relaxation or modifica-
ton of standards governing the en-
ployment of minors under 16.
6. Proper safeguards for health
and safety.
7. The same wage rates for women
as for men.
The recommendation As to hours
in no way affects the Hour
Acts provision requiring time and
one-half pay for all work over 40
hours week." the agencies said.

Bookings Predicts
Wartime Restrictions
Build Future Demand
For Civilian GOODS

The Bookings Institution predict
ed today on the basis of a survey
that the first two years or more fol-
lowing the present war are likely to
be characterized by good times rath-
er than bad.
The forecast was based on the ex-
perience of the United States after
other major wars.
Just as extraordinary war de-
mands stimulate war production"
the Brookings statement said, so
the accumulated needs resulting
from wartime restrictions and the
consequent shortages stimulate re-
sumption Of peace production on a
vast scale to meet replacement re-
quirements.
Difficulty Follows Boom.
Economic difficulties are more
likely to occur after the replacement
period is over and the special de-
mand produced by the war is ended"
Fhe financial collapse of 1920, it
was pointed out in the report, was
due largely to Embellishments aris-
ing out of the 1919 boom rather
than the war. ~~ - '-"'- -
Contrasting the situation which
may be expected at the end of this
war with that after the First World
War, several major favorable and
unfavorable major factors were
cited as likely to be operating.
Favorable Side.
On the favorable side were a re-
tarded rate of rehabilitation, large
reconstruction requirements abroad,
domestic shortages of consumer
goods, deferred maintenance and
replacement of industrial equip
ment, housing deficiencies, relatively
large purchasing power, less extern
sive imitation of prices and large
public works spending.
Unfavorable conditions were eX-
pected to include the unprecedented
size of the employment problem,
difficulties in reconverting indus
tries, possible shortages of working
capital in industry, high corporate
taxes and an unfavorable ratio of
costs to selling prices in industry,
particularly manufacturing.

time.
At Eugene the river dropped be-
low flood stages and farmers began
returning to their silt-covered
lands. Traffic was resumed over all
major routes except, the coast high
way, still flooded between Coquille
and Bandon, but highway officials
said 1t would be week before some
secondary roads would be opened.
Damage was estimated in the mil
lions.
From Salem to Portland the Will
lamette was above flood level, in
undating canneries, warehouses,
shipyards, paper and lumber mills.
At Oregon City, near Portland
water was II feet deep over the city
athletic field and the main line of
the Southern Pacific Railroad was
blocked, the first time since 1893.
Rail traffic was rerouted around
the area.
A concrete flood wall saved Port
land proper, and below the city the
Willamette emptied into The mile
wide Columbia, which easily carried
of the flow.
To rivermen there the flood pro-
vided rich windfall.
More than million board feet Of
logs were washed away from up
stream lumber mills and they bobbed
through Portland by the hundreds,
giving the Willamette the appear
ance Of an old-time log drive.
Rivermen threw out chain booms
to catch the logs, which will, by
river custom, be bought back by
lumber companies. The take will
run into thousands of dollars.
OF the flood victims seven were
known dead. Missing were two high
way crewmen washed of wreckage
at Salem and an elderly man feared
to have been carried away by an
overlooking drainage ditch near Mo-
lalla.

CHUNGKING, JAM. 4.-Millions
Of Americans who never heard of
1t. Gen. Ii Wei may be surprised
to learn he is none other than
Joseph w. Stilwell, commander of
American forces in China. 1t is the
only name by which Gen Stilwell
is known to some 100000, 900
Chinese. Its literal meaning is
spreading authority"-a title which
may have real significance when
Gen. Stilweu and his armies get
going against the Japanese.
One of the first things American
officers discover when reaching
China Is the necessity of acouir-
ing Chinese aliases SO that their
names can be ineligible to nom
English-speaking Chinese. The usu-
al practice is to pick name phon-
