House Group TO Offer
Skeleton Wage Bill,
Lesinski Declares
BY the Asseciotsd Press

Chairman Lesinski said today
his House Labor Committee Is
slowly shredding the administra-
tion's wage-hour bill to bits.
He told reporter the measure
probably will bear only a vague
resemblance to the original when
lit reaches the House floor for de-
bate sometime in the next three
weeks.
The committee was due to close
it's hearings today. MIR. Lesinski
said he expects it will take the
rest of the week and all of next
week to work the bill into shape.
At that time, he added, it may
emerge as a simple one-page bill
to raise the national minimum
wage from it's present 40 cents an
hour, probably to somewhere be-
tween 60 cents and rs.
Mcconnell Plans Own Bill.
The administration asked that
the minimum be raised to rs
cents, with a provision for shov-
ing it on up to 81 in certain indus
tries after study by industry COM
mittees.
Meanwhile Representative Nc
Connell, Republican, of Pennsyl-
vania, top ranking minority men,
ber of the committee, said that
r,l,o, o1oeoJ cocciooc CT orf 1,o will
propose a minimum wage bill OF
his own. 1t will propose setting
the minimum at IS cents an hour,
then tying it to living costs after
January l. 1850, to go up or down.
Administration witnesses pro-
posed broadening the wage-hour
law to cover activities affecting
commerce. 1t now applies only
to interstate commerce.
Mr.. Lesinski said that has been
discarded as being too sweeping
and indefinite.
= The committee also is baking,
he said, at an administration
suggestion that the law cover large
department stores and retail
chains having more than four
stores.
Minimum Coverage Seen.
Mr.. Lesinski would not predict
how this argument may come out,
but he said the coverage OF retail
workers will be kept as small as
possible.
Actually, he said. most OF the
committee discussion has centered
around still another wage-hour
measure, which he introduced at
the request of the CIO an AFL.
This bill would make the mini
mum wage apply to workers on
farms which employe more than
800 man days of hired help IN
every quarter of the year, exclusive
of the farm operator and his
family.
Mr.. Lesinski said committee
members are talking OF putting
the man-day requirement up to
l 900. which he said would exempt
all farms employing less than Is
hired hands throughout the year.

answer filed by the Hempsted
School Board in an NAACP APP
peal to the N, Y. State Commits
sioner of Education against seq
regation of Negro pupils into the

The NAACP in It's reply points
out that the school board in its
answer did not deny that school
District lines are unreasonable and
Illegally drawn, and that prior TO
the adoption of these lines 1t
was the policy of the board to
assign as many Negro children
whose parents did not object to
the Prospect School. The school
boards answer, the NAACP notes,
merely indicates that the NAACP
agreed that the concentration of
Negroes in the area would cause
a predominance of Negroes in the
school even if the lines were rea-
sonably drawn,
