DOWN UNDER WORKERS
GAIN 40 HOUR WORK
week

After a hearing lasting nearly two
years. the Federal Arbitration Court
has unanimously reduced standard
maximum weekly hours of work in
Australian industry from A to 40. as
from January 1913.
The court attached one important
condition that for an underlined
transitional period employees must
work reasonable overtime, if required,
and unions must place no restrictions
on such overtime,
Union officials who considered the
judgment indicated that they would
contest the overtime provisions. They
said employers might be tempted to
exploit it and thus defeat the object OF
the shorter week.
Spokesman for industry said the
shorter week would increase costs,
This rise would have to be passed on
to the public unless output per man.
hour was increased. Australia's great
need today was production, to meet
hc'HAtS wv consumer SbouN Hil0l l
ages.
Before the shorter working week
can apply. variations in hundreds OF
awards must be made by Cancellation
Commissioners. 1t is expected thai
the new Arbitration Act under which
they will work will be proclaimed
early in October.
Tho judges said that January had
been fixed for Introduction of the
40-hour week because it was necessary
to steady the impact by letting in the
clutch slowly
The immediate effect of the judg
ment is to reduce to 10 hours a week
the work done under 81 federal awards
covering unions who applied to the
court for variations in the 40-hour case

You take that Veterans Admin listration,' scowled Jerry Jones, ex- Navy.
 Yeah, I know said Joe John son, who had kept his temper dur l ing 27 months of Army duty but sounded sore TOW. T get my sub lsistence allowance checks for seven straight months and then, bingo, I don't get any more. Why? I'm still going to school under the CT Bill"
 You're asking me?" Jerry quer- jed. I'm in the same boat. This is the third straight month I haven't gotten my check, and I was getting 'em right along, too. I won- der what gives"
 Here's the idea" put in Will Castor, ex-Marine Maybe you birds haven't reported your income to the VA
 Reported our income" glared Jerry. Are you crazy? Know what my income is? It's the little dough that wasn't there. It's zero. :"
 Doesn't matter" insisted Bill You've gotto report your income, and fl it's zero then report it as zero. But you've got to let the VA know how much it is so they can i figure out how much allowance you rate"
 i That makes no sense to me, v scoffed Jerry. If I'm not making any dough on the side why report it to the VA?'
 Because" sighed Will, patiently, If you don't report it how are they going to know? There's no way I know of the VA can figure cut the earnings of every vet going to school under the GI Bill. So if you don't report your earnings the VA has to hold back the allowance checks. It's on account of that law, you know the one I mean"
 Sure, I know all aDouc that law" said Jerry But I didn't think it applied to me. I thought it only affected guys making dough on the side"
 You're right" agreed Will. Tt does affect you only if you're mak- ing dough on the si6e and if your earnings plus allowance are over the monthly limits set in the law !. SITS for single vets and $200 for vets with dependents.
 But every veteran has to report his earnings, large or small or zero, so that VA can find out who is affected"
 Joe studied his shoes Jerry reached in his pocket for ciga- rette. lit it, blew out smoke and a sigh and said, Yeah. I see what you mean It guess it does make sense But how do we make that report? Is there a form?"
 Yes but you don't Eeed to use it." replied Will Just write your regional VA office a letter and tell them you made no income during the months of August, September and October.

Shiny Seat

If your good wool suit develops a
shine on the seat and sleeves, here
are some suggestions from clothing
experts. They say it's the soil COM
bined with wearing and mating OF
the wool fiber that causes the shine.
To remove the soil, sponge with
cleaning fluid. On some fabrics
sponging with water containing a
few drops of ammonia or vinegar
may help to brighten the color. And
you can lift the nap of the wool by
a brisk brushing, or even a fine
sandpapering.
