BY the Associated Press.
A congressional inquiry into
the adviSability of raising the
Nations minimum wage level
from 40 to IS cents an hour was
announced today by Chairman
Pepper of special Senate Labor
Subcommittee.
The Florida Senator said he would
call labor, business and Govern
ment officials for hearings starting
next Wednesday.
His own resolution, asserting that
''it Is the sense of the Congress that
straight-time hourly rate of IS
cents per hour is the minimum be-
low which the National War Labor
Board shall consider any wage rate
substandard," is the basis for the
inquiry.
Saying President Roosevelt had
given the War Labor Board author
ity ito correct substandards of hv-
ing" Senator Pepper added that
there is need for a new definition
of what constitutes wages so low as
to curtail production and under
mine the health and strength of the
Nation"

The War Labor Board, meanwhile,
was told at its hearings on the steel
wage case that its maintenance of
membership policies enable a union

destinies of its members under the
economic threat of loss of their
jobs"
The charge was contained in q
statement submitted by Nicholas Un-
kovic, attorney for the Allegheny
Ludlum and the Pittsburgh Steel
companies, who said:
'Such power is conducive neither
to good labor relations nor to good
Government. - 1t is incumbent
upon the board to re-examine its

ing in Australia, winning 81
races out of 81 starts.
He was three times second,
twice third and nine times I'M
placed and. including the Aqua
Caliente Handicap, won 1882
$50, which puts him ninth on
the list of money winning horses
of the world. He had an inordi-
nate appetite for sugar and the
autopsy disclosed a vast amount
of that in his system.
The very fact that Phar Lap,
which means something like red
thunder, was brought such a
long distance Immediately at
tracted attention TO him. His
preparation for his first race,
the Aqua Caliente, was most I'M
usual as he never worked" as
our American horses do. but was
brought out on the track only at
night for gallops and then with
big man in an overcoat up.
Hence the clockers had no info
on him.
ELIOTT, an Australian Jockey
II who accompanied the horse,
was his rider in the Aqua Cali
ente and the big horse was left
flatfeoted at the start.
He got away seven lengths
behind the field and was trailing
going to the clubhouse turn.
Few observers gave him
chance. He was wagging his
head as if in diStaste of the dirt
track.
Then suddenly he began COW
ering ground in great leaps like
a mammoth kangaroo and he
soon overhauled the field and
won by much open daylight.
Reveille Boy was second,
Scimitar third
The time for the mile and a
quarter was 2:02 3-5 and Ameri-
can turfmen who saw the race
gasped and said Phar Lap was
something out of the equine
world. No, Sonny. no one in
this country would dream of
numbering" a horse like that.
