ers in the year ended June 80.
So far, it said, $4,000 employers
have paid up S8,864,000 and 5000
have done nothing.
The department reported that it
had found minimum wage, overtime
or child labor violations in 20,570, or
81 per cent, of 4 0,350 plants inspect
ed during the year under the wage
hour and public contracts acts. The
laws impose restrictions on employ
ing minors and require a minimum
wage of 40 cents an hour and time
and a half pay for work after 40
hours a week. They apply to firms
in interstate business.
William R. McComb, administra-
tor of the wage-hour and public con
trolls division, said the inspectors
covered about z per cent of the esti-
mated $50, 900 establishments and
about 8 per cent of the 81, 500, 900
workers employed covered by the
acts.
Noting that most violations re-
suited from failure to pay for YER
time, McComb said this often was
due to improperly classifying en-

Ghuiisf Gets ColnedoWn, Boy
Leaps From 2o0.Fooi Tower

NEWPORT BEACH, CALF. -
Once, at least, to most every boy
comes the day when he decides he'll
take a shot at defying gravity.
Mrs. Marge Hammer says her
son, Richard Reicher, IL, did it up
right. The conventional umbrella
from-a-housetop method wasn't for
him. She said he strapped a war
surplus pa<achute to his shoulders,
climbed to the top of a 200-foot radar
tower near the Newport Beach high
school and was carried into space
by the billowing chute when he
pulled the ripcord.
Richard reported that the start
was fun but the jolting landing,
which bruised most of his body,
made him decide that once was
enough. To make sure of this Mrs.
Hammer cut the parachute up and
is making it into a nylon dress.

Four Retrace First
Voyage Of Columbus
Argentine Amateurs Cruise 1900
Miles From Spain.

NEW YORK.-Ending a cruise o
about 1900 nautical miles, foul
amateur sailors arrived here after
covering the route of Columbus frs
voyage from Plos Palos, Spain, tc
the island of San Salvador.
After a rest here they planned tc
add another 10000 miles to the log
on a voyage from New York to
Buenos Aires by way of the Antilles
and down the coast of South Amer
lea.
The skipper, a carefree former
diplomat now turning writer" is
Ernesto Uriburu, former press at
tache of the Argentine embassy in
Washington. He says he is writing a
book, Sin English with a accent"
Uriburu is captain, owner and
cook" His brother Mario, a naval
technician, helped build and design
the "Gaucho," a double-ended 90
ton ketch with an auxiliary diesel
engine.
The other crew members are
Julio A. Vazquez, navigator, and
HAlSuSl "a DllIOS, d LSWSpdPSl iildAA
and photographer.
The ketch, a trim 50-foot craft,
left Buenos Aires July %, 1916,
sailed up to Rio de Janeiro and
crossed the Atlantic to Dakar, West
Africa, in % days.
Following the ancient routes of the
Spanish and Portuguese navigators,
the Gaucho toured the Canary is
lands, entered the Mediterranean
and detoured to the Suez canal.
Uriburu says his voyage from
Palos is the first of its kind. Prof.
Samuel Morrison of Harvard re-
traced the third voyage of Column
bus, from San Lucas de Barrameda
Trinidad and the delta of the
Orinoco.

Judge Knows His Trade,
And PeddIer Knows His

HOUSTON, TEX. - A little
question and answer session be-
tween a banana peddler and a
federal judge ended in a nothing
to nothing tie.
How many stars in the f1ag?"
the judge asked the peddler, who
wants to become a U. S. citizen.
The man thought hard for a
moment.
Don't know" he said.
"An right" said the judge,
chow many stripes in the flag?"
Don't know" was the reply.
The judge started to dismiss
the peddler when he interrupted.
"Wait a minute, judge" he
said, How many bananas On a
stalk"
"T'm afraid I don't know" said
the puzzled judge.
"See," said the peddler trium-
phantly, bananas is my bust
ness. The flag is your business"
The judge, his dignity a bit
ruff1ed, advised the peddler to
study American history more
thoroughly.

FEPC MEASURE

New York City QLNS).-Gov.
Dwight FL. Green of Illinois has
been urged by the Workers De-
Tense League to call upon the
legislature to adopt one of the fair
employment practice commission
now before it. Pointing
b Republican control of the gen.

FEPC believe that the governor,
who is the states Republican
leader, can get such measure
passed if he so desires.
"You have announced that you
will gladly administer state
FEPC measure, if enacted" Row
land Watts, associate WDL sec
retary wrote Green. Recalling
that only one-ffth of the Republi-

Comment On World Events

The American Federation of

Truman two conclusions that have
long been apparent to all except
to those hell-bent on reducing Ger
many to the status of a pastoral
community-a thing impossible to
accomplish with a populous ma
tion in the heart of modern Eu-
rope.
Four-power control of Germany
is a colossal failure" and the
"basic level of industry must be
raised if 65,0o0,000 Germans are
to continue to live" the President
was told in statement handed to
him by William Green, AFL presi
dent; George Meany, secretary
treasurer and David Dubinsky, vice
president.

further said.
The statement given the Presi-

Slump Before
Middle l95O's

Boston (ILNS).-The nation has
no reason TO expect a serious or

Westinghouse Electric Corporation
vice president, on the basis Of a
10-year study made by the COM
pany's statistical department.
owe see no reason to expect a
cyclical recession in 1947," said
Newbury's report, made public in
the spring issue Of the Harvard
Business Review. "On the con-
trary, we look for stabilized whole
sale prices, steady or rising EN-
ployment, production and national
income during 1947."
The report said that manufac-
turing and consumer buying might
be expected to be different in 1947
from 1916 in the relative position
of the perishable and semi-durable
goods industries, on the one hand,
and durable consumer and pro-
ducer goods on the other. Soft
goods would decline, the report
said, but the durable group would
increase, and 1T is the durable
goods industries that are the bell
wethers which lead major cyclical
changes"
While it was held that some
time during 1947 new orders for
durable goods would fall below
production, "this natural and to be
expected development will set the
stage for some mild recession in
194S, possibly extending into 1949."
Relative Stability" Seen
"But," said the report, business
men can look for relative stability
over the next half-dozen years
comparable to, although less than,
the stability of the years 1922-28."
While big swings come after
Aars, according to experience, and
eve have no reason to expect that
we can completely escape similar
troubles in the decade ahead" the
report states that "there should be
no serious or prolonged depression
before the middle 1950's."

The Union Label

New York City QLNS).-A pol

noting the union label has been
instituted by Adam Hats, said to
be Americas largest retailer of

dent of the United Hatters, Cap

making the announcement, cited
the step as "an extension of true
leadership which may well set a
good-neighbor pattern for union
retailer relationships"
President Zaritsky declared:
"The union label stands for in
tegrity, quality and expert crafts
manship. AS the silversmith puts
the sterling stamp of excellence on
his products, SO our members put
the union label on their product as
the symbol of the finest workman
ship. When Adam Hats tells it's
customers to look for the union
label, it is telling them to look for
peak quality and materials plus
long wear and fair price"

Findings and recommendations
of the committee deserve the
widest circulation. Submitted to
the AFL Executive Council in jan

gram for Germany now being adj

The whole report is of great in
terest to labor, particularly the
recommendation for giving the or
ganized workers more of voice
in Germany.
"Trade unions and their leaders
and members" the committee de-
clared, "should be given a greater
role in economic and political re-
construction. Thus far, the Mill

vested virtually all of the powers
of civil government in the hands
of the established conservative
groups, few Of whom can be iden-
titled as wage earners."

GLAMOR
By MARY MOORE

Beauty is based on good health,
proper diet and sufficient sleep.
Expert care and careful dieting
will keep you wrinkle free and
shapely, but a frown between the
brows, whine in the voice, and a
disconsolate droop of the mouth
cannot be hidden at any age.
You can be more beautiful if
you'll resolve to:
Recognize that personality is an
integral part of beauty.
Learn your type-how to dress
your hair and apply your makeup
in order to make the most of your
looks.
Be truthful to yourself-if you
don't know what is best suited to
your type, seek professional ad-
vice.
Practice correct cleansing of
skin, hair and nails and be fasti-
dious in all personal care.
Take some form of daily exer-
else, preferably in the fresh air.
Allow plenty of time to apply
your makeup.
If you can't be pretty, be smart
in appearance.
At all times be we'll groomed
from head to toe.
Recognize your age and choose
appropriate hairstyles and clothes
accordingly.
1t has been said that between
the ages of 20 and 80 a women
needs beauty; between 80 and 40,
she needs charm; between 40 and
80, she needs wit; and heaven help
her after that is she hasn't got
ingenuity or money!
Il
A new note in line with the back
interest created by bustles and
back swept hairstyles is to wear
stunning clip or piece of cos
tune jewelry, behind the shoulder
on your back. It's different!
