Minimum Wage Bill
Is Given Approval
OF Labor Committee

The Senate labor committee last
Friday gave a unanimous OK to a
bill increasing the minimum wage
to IS cents per hour.
If the bill, as recommended by
the committee, becomes law, it will
mean pay hikes for a million and
a quarter American workers. The
House has already approved such
bill, except the House version
covers more workers than the Sem
ate's does.
The Senate bill will add coverage
to only about 100000 more work.
ers than does the present law; all
of them "non-farm" workers en-
gagged in processing agricultural
products.
The Senate committees version
of the bill provides that the govern
ment would police the act and sue
violators of it in the name of the
cheated employees.
Combined pressure from Repub-
licans and DixiecratS has been
blamed for the fact that the ad-
ministration's original bill has been
bounced around like an Orangeman
on st. Patrick's Day. The States
Rights" boys are going to be sure
that field hands down South con-
tinue to work for ten cents per
h o u r-and the Republicans are
sworn to help them.
This accounts for the elimination
of all coverage for agricultural
workers, except the few mon
farm" employees engaged in "pro-
cessing" agricultural products. That
is probably intended to cover en-
ployees in canneries and quick
freeze pla n ts-whom the "big
farmers" have always maintained
were engaged in agricultural pur-
suits"

ASC Makes Plans
For Gridiron Season

Head Football Coach Ed Doherty
of Arizona State College has his
full coaching staff arranged for
the 1949 gridiron season except for
the matter of naming a freshman
football coach, Executive Manager
of Athletics, Don Kinzle announced
Wednesday.
Assisting the former Boston Col
lege athletic star will be three
coaches who have served with him
during the past year as well as a
former Arizona State football star
returning to the collegiate field
after some years of high school
coaching.
William "BilP Quinn will again
be first assistant to Doherty and
will direct the offensive line. Quinn
will act as head coach in the alb
Sence of Doherty.
According to Doherty, Quinn is
a consistent reliable assistant who
deserves credit for the scrappy, well
conditioned lines of the past two
seasons.
coach Quinn deserves a pat on
the back for his lines that he has
turned out. He has lacked the ma
terial in the past and has done
wonders with what he had to work
with"

airplane factory on Long Island
where he had a job. While the
man was working Barnes made off
with his car. 1t was a good trick.
The car was parked behind
a barbed-wire enclosure under the
eyes of watchman.
On the following day a Oman
called on Barnes. He asked if the
FBI could look the car over. When
Barnes produced it, the Oman
found several airplane plans stolen
from a Detroit factory in the up
holstery. He assured Barnes
that it was not necessary to re-
turn the plans to the man he
had deprived of the car. The
FBI took care of that.
Barnes's Office is in his home, an
unobtusive fieldstone residence
on the outskirts of Flushing, N. Y.
His chief assistant is Lorna Lou,
his attractive wife who was a
schoolteacher when he met her in
Hollywood. Since then she has
learned all the tricks of legal car
stealing and sometimes works with
Barnes on a case.
Not long ago Barnes tracked
down an expensive convertible in
Chicago. 1t had been driven there
by a veteran car gyp who knew all
the answers. He had put the car in
a garage and told the manager not
to surrender it to anyone.
1t looked like a tough case to
beat until Barnes discovered that

the gyp had a daughter who had
driven to Chicago with him. He
sent Lorna Lou a wire to board
the next plane.
That night Lorna Lou entered
the garage and demanded her
fathers" convertible.
Sorry, Miss" the night mana
ger said, but my orders are not
to let anyone take this car out"
~Just Call Fashsrv
OF COURSE" Lorna Lou smiled.
But Father has changed his mind.
You just call this number and con-
firm it."
The manager called the num-
Der. He was connected with Barnes
who was waiting in a corner tele-
phone booth. Sure, Barnes said
heartily, his daughter" could
have the car.
Lorna Lou drove the car out of
the garage. She stopped at the
corner to pick up her husband.
Then they drove on to New York
and turned the car over to the
finance company.
Mrs. Barnes also manages the
Office when she is not out on a
case. She is accustomed to call
ers who arrive threatening to
beat her husband up.
One day the late Jack johnson
walked in. Barnes had picked up
his car in Chicago for $500 in back
payments. The former heavy
weight champion declared that
her husband had stolen his car
and he was going to take it out of
his hide, double.
Evening star., 1949-09-18
"Why double?" Lorna Lou

"Why double?" Lorna Lou
asked.
'On account of this being the
second time he done it, said John
son. "The first time was in Harlem
back in 1884"
Lorna Lou has a persuasive
manner. She Gained the old fighter
and convinced him that he should
settle the matter in court. He did
so, paying the 500 plus $43 in
repair bills. He got back his car.
Three months later he was killed
in it in an automobile accident.
Lorna Lou is also accustomed to
having her husband call up from
Montreal or Miami to tell her he
won't be home for dinner. One
Sunday morning he called up from
the Ell Paso, Texas, Jail. He was
spending the week end there,
charged with grand larceny.
Caught Up in II Paso
l HIS resulted from recovering a
car from a Los Angeles woman
car swindler and check passer. She
had bought the car and paid for it
with a rubber check. Barnes, talk
ing the case for a California bank,
caught up with her in Ell Paso.
While she was in her hotel room
Barnes took possession of the car
and started for Los Angeles. The
woman told the police the car had
been stolen. They Immediately
sent out an alarm. Barnes was
picked up by a sheriff near a small
town in New Mexico.
Instead of taking him to the

Pomona to prefer charges of as
sault against him. He didn't press
the charges. He just wanted to go
on record.
Barnes gets fee of from $35 to
$3.50 for each car that he repos-
sesses and he never knows what
he is going to run into. One of his
most difficult cases involved 10
sedans upon which down pay
ments had been made by members
of the Murder, Inc, gang in
Brooklyn.
They gave fictitious names when
they had their cars financed, used
other aliases in obtaining license
plates. They changed motor and
serial numbers on their registra-
tons.
"And then." adds Barnes, they
eally'began scrambling things up
by switching license plates around
and exchanging cars. I'd get a lead
on one of the men and find out
that he was driving car expect
ed that another of the gang would
have in his possession"
Spy Case
DESPITE many threats against
his life Barnes was we'll on his way
to recovering all the cars. Then
the police stepped in and cleaned
up the gang.
One day Barnes picked up the
trail of an automobile sharper in
Detroit. He followed him to an

FEVER
IN DELAWARE
Twenty-Six Cases Reported to
State Board of Health
Within Three Years
NO DEATHS LAST YEAR

Twenty-six cases of Rocky
Mountain Spotted Fever in Della
ware have been reported to the
State Board of Health within the
last three years, resulting in seven
deaths. No deaths from this dis
ease occurred last year, but five
cases were reported to the Bureau
of Vital Statistics during 1948.
Already this spring wood ticks
have made their appearance, and
the State Board of Health is warn
ing persons who will be out in the
fields and woods to examine the
body closely upon returning home.
Even though only one tick in few
hundred may carry the Rocky
Mountain spotted fever virus, that
one tick (Which cannot be recog-
nized from the rest) may cause
fatal infection.
Ticks often work their way up
ward before attaching themselves:
the back of the head and neck of
human beings are favorite feeding
places. Careful examination of
the heads, especially of children at
least twice day may reveal tick
in time to prevent a bite. Remem-
ber, health officials warn, that the
bite of a tick is seldom felt.
People are warned not to become
unduly excited if they do find a
tick, however, because it must be
attached to the person for several
hours and it must be infected with
the spotted fever, in order to be
able to give the person the disease.
To remove an attached tick, the
State Board of Health says to use
forceps, tweezers or rubber gloves
in order to keep the tick blood off
