Some Unions Will Try To Ignore
 Taft-Hartley Law
(By The Associated Press)


 Labor-management contra ct proposals in at least two indus tries were being worked out Sat urday as Chairman Hartley of the House labor committee, co-author of the Taft-Hartley act, called for Congressional investigation of any and all efforts to bypass the law"
 In Detroit, officers of the CIO united auto workers began pre- pairing for a referendum among 107, ,000 Ford Motor CO. production workers in which they will choose one of two proposed contract set dement's.
 Agreement to submit the alter natives to the workers was reach ed just before midnight Thursday, when many provisions of the Taft Hartley act went into effect, per mitting both contracts to provide a union shop. Both contracts also include a provision to leave settle ment of the question of suits un- der the new law to a four-man union-company committee.
 One alternative includes an 1112 cent hourly wage increase and six paid holidays. The other combines a seven cent increase with a pen sion plan. Union officials estim- ated balloting could be completed by Sept: Is.
 In Cleveland, the AFL-interna- tional typographical union began working out details of the no-con- tract policy adopted by it's 89th convention.
 The convention agreed that the union would make no more writ ten contracts with employers un- der the Hartley labor act. In lieu of written contracts, the print CTS sad, ITU locals will post con ditions of employment" under which they will work
 In Washington, Hartley R.-N JD called AFL and CIO proposals to ignore the act "brazen effront- cry"
 ''I am going to ask the joint Qa- bor) committee to investigate any and all efforts to bypass the law" Hartley said. Whether by unions working alone or in conspiracy with employers. That applies both to violations of spirit and the let ter of the law"

Child Labor Laws
Lint Work Hours

WASHINGTON, D. C.-With
most of the Nations schools due
to open within a few days, en-
ployers who hire children on either
full-time or a part-time basis
were cautioned today to abide by
specific Federal regulations apply
ing to the employment of minors
in plants producing goods for in
terstate commerce..
The warning was issued by F.
Granville Grimes, Jr. Deputy Ad-
ministrator of the Wage and Hour
and Public Contracts Division, U.
S. Department of Labor.
Grimes explained that under the
Fair Labor Standards Act, the mini
mum age for genral employment
is 16 years while 14-and 15-year-
old youngsters may be employed
only outside school hours and sub
ject to stringent regulations.
For example, he pointed out that
employment of 14-and 15-year-old
youngsters is limited to three hours
on school days and eight hours on
nonschool days and a maximum of
18 hours during the weeks school
is in session and 40 hours other
weeks.
Generally, he said all work per-
formed by A. and 15-year-old
children must be done between 7
am. and pm. They may not be
employment at anytime in covered
establishments in manufacturing,
mining or processing occupations.
They may not operate or tend
power-driven machinery other than
office machines; they may not be
employed in occupations declaring
to be hazardous for minors 16 and
II years old.
Occupations determined to be
hazardous by the Secretary of La
Dor and in which the minimum
age for employment under the Fair
Labor Standards Act is 18 years
are given blow:
Most occupations connected with
explosive plants, motor vehicle
drivers and helpers; coal mining;
logging and sawmilling; operation
of wood cutting machines; occupa-

clatIOn.
"But I don't feel sick. How can
have tuberculosis?
This is the typical reaction of
many persons who learn that they
have TB in the early stage before
the symptoms appear. Such people,
shocked as they are by the news
and the prospect of long illness
ahead of them, rarely realize how
lucky they are. Those whose cases
are discovered early are fortunate.
It is in this stage that the disease
is most easily and quickly cured.
tuberculosis frequently has a
long symptorless onset. People
may have it for weeks or months
before they consult a doctor. The
symptoms of coughing, loss of ap-
petite, loss of weight and splitting
blood, usually associated with tub
erculosis in the public mind, do not
appear until the disease is well ad-
vanced. If people wait until they
feel "sick" before going to the doc
tor, the disease may have reached
a point where cure is difficult, long
and costly.
Even in it's early stages, tuberc-
ulosis is often communicable,
threat to the health of the patients
family, friends and fellow morkers.
A person with active TB may let
loose showers of lethal germs when
he coughs. Germs may also be
spread by the dishes and towels he
uses, if improperly cared for. Any
delay in discovery and treatment
of the disease endangers everyone
who approaches the patient, in ad-
dition to jeopardizing the success
of the cure.
Because of modern techniques of
discovering tuberculosis by mass

chest X-ray and tuberculin testing
campaigns in our schools and COM
munitieS, more cases are being
found in the early symphonies, or
minimal, stage than ever before. It
would be we'll for everkyone to un-
derstand that, although a case may
be minimal, it is not matter to be
treated lightly.
Some patients may think they
can be cured by staying home for
while and taking it easy" They
may believe their homes can pro-
vide the rest, good food and fresh
air the doctor has prescribed. How
ever, when the doctor says "rest,"
he means complete body rest "a
hours day, preferably in a sana-
torium or tuberculosis hospital.
Few homes can be turned into hos
pitals providing the proper treat
ment and precautions against the
spread of the disease, day in and
day out, week after week.
In a TB hospital, the patient has
skilled doctors and nurses and the
best medical treatment. He runs no
risk of spreading the disease to his
loved ones. He need not go far
from home, as climate is not i'm
portant in the treatment of tuberc-
ulosis. Beginning his treatment
with the advantage of early dis
covery of his disease, he can be rea-
sonably sure of a successful cure
and the earliest possible return to
his place in society.
In the next article, measles will
be discussed.
