PAY RULES
ANNOUNCED

Regulations for wages to be paid
by companies resuming gold min
ing on or after July /, have been
announced by ]. Glenn Donaldson,
chairman of the nonferrous metals
commission of the national war
labor board
Companies may use wage rate
schedules legally in effect when
gold mining operations were closed
down in 1912 by the War Produc-
ton Board. The term legally in
effect" Donaldson explained, con-
templates that any increases or de-
creases in wages made between
October 2, 1912, the date of wage
sterilization, and the date of sus-
pension of operations must have
been approved by the War Labor
Board
Donaldson said a survey of the
gold mining industry disclosed that
some companies still have the right
to grant wage increases to meet the
rise in living costs. He pointed out:
Such companies, upon application
to the NonferrouS Metals Commits
sion, may receive permission to in
crease wages up to Is per cent
above the average of the straight
time rates prevailing on January 1,
