Setting Aside Of Ruling
Applying Wage Act TO
Foreign Bases Sought
BY the kssoeioted Press

Five Government departments
have asked the Supreme Court to
reconsider its recent decision apply
ing the wage-hour law to American
military bases on foreign soil.
They say the decision, if per-
mitted to stand, will hamper the
Nations foreign policies and de-
fense plans and cost the Govern
ment many hundreds of millions OF
dollars.
Secretary of the Army Royal told
the court its ruling may even cause
foreign governments to cancel agree
mentS permitting maintenance OF
American bases. He said 1t might
hamper the use of secret bases the
United States is building on foreign
soil.
Mr.. Royal said the decision prob
ably also will require applying the
wage-hour laws Accent minimum
wage and overtime provisions to
workers in occupied areas in Eu-
rope and Japan.
ut Is hoped" the Army Secretary
said, "the court may be induced to
set aside the initial decision upon a
full consideration Of the grave and
far-reaching implications that stem
from this decision"
Base Ruled q Possession"
A memorandum filed with the
court by the Justice Department
asking for reconsideration of the
December decision was Joined by
the State, Army, Navy and Labor
Departments.
That decision said that workers at
the United States military base in
Bermuda, obtained from Great Bril-
tain in 1941 on a 99-year lease, are
entitled to the protection of the
wage-hour law.
The court ruled the Bermuda base
Is possession" of this country SO
far as the wage-hour lawis con-
cerned. It said workmen there must
get the Accent pay minimum and
overtime rates after 40 hours week
as the wage-hour law requires.
Mr.. Royal said two aspects of the
decision may be expected to render
extremely difficult, If not impossible
In some instances, the i'm
plementing of defenses of this
country at strategic global sites on
foreign soil"
The Army Secretary said the
court ruled that O.. foreign work
men employed at such bases must
be paid the minimum wage and
overtime pay, and (2) the bases are
possession" of the United States
In spite of foreign sovereignty.
Sees Local Economies Disrupted.
Many such governments have their
ewn pay standards which, when ex-
ceeded, seriously disrupt the local
economy" the memorandum to the
court said.
Mr.. Royal said the decision is
bound to bring vigorous opposition"
from foreign governments to leasing
any new base sites and, as for pres
ent bases In other countries:
"It would not be unexpected If
some of the foreign governments
involved were to compel the cur
tailment or abandonment Of such
projects" ..----
Increased labor costs will apply
Immediately, Secretary Royal said,
to bases costing more than s24o,-
o00, 1000 now under construction in
the Philippines, Newfoundland, Oki-
nawa, Iceland, Greece, Bermuda
and Canada.
The cost increase for this Gov
ernment on construction, he esti-
mated, will doubtless run into the
hundreds of millions"
Mr.. Royal said there are a num-
ber of secret bases under construc-
ton on foreign soil, too, and appli-
cation of the wage-hour law to them
may mean lawsuits disclosing their
extent and purpose.

Farm Glasses Are off to Good Stort

The Valleys on the farm training classes for veterans are off to a fine start, at both Pal mer and WaSilla, it was an- nounced this week by Eugene Kirsh, who is in charge of the program. MT. Kirsh said eight men had registered for the Pal mer classes, which meet at Pal mer school each Monday eve- ming at 8 D. m.
 Response has been much more wholehearted in Wasilla, where 30 veterans are registered for the farmer courses. The classes follow a definite program of class hours, which are arranged for the convenience of class reg istrantS. The Wasilla groups meet at the Wasilla school at 8 o'clock on Fridays.
 The Palmer class went last week to the greenhouse of Max Sherrod, for a practical demon stration, and enjoyed a Soil Conservation Service film last Monday.

Vogues Extends
 Employment List

Since full-time baby-sitters seem to be more in demand than the just-for-the-evening variety, Mrs. Betty Mears of Variety Vogues has opened her registra- tion lists to adults, she announc- ed this week. There is no charge for this servlce. Mrs. Mears asks only that women seeking work drop in at Variety Vogues and add their names to her list.
 Several inquiries already have been placed with Mrs. Mears for women to care for children for several weeks or for the entire summer. She also has had ques- tions concerning women who will do cleaning by the hour.
 The service Mrs. Mears offers, with respect to baby-sitters, is one designed to make Nom and Pops evening off one of sheer relaxation. All that needs to be done, once the time and date of that evening is set, is to call Mrs. Mears and ask to be sup piled with a baby-sitter.
 She'll thumb through her lists and come up with a girl who'll be ringing the front doorbell at the appointed hour and night. It's as easy as that. Mrs. Mears takes care of everything but paying the sitter's wages; that she leaves to the Sitter's em- ployer.

Committee To Choose Site
 For Office Building On May 2

Although conflicting reports from Juneau have vigorously as serted that Juneau has been chosen, at a March 18th meet ing of the Territorial Board of Administration, as the site for planned territorial office build ings, latest reports indicate that no decision will be made until May 2.
 On Tuesday, March 29, the Alaska Daily Empire reported that Palmer got the legislative spotlight, but the Gastineau Channel gets the building for which House Bill 115 appropri- ated $660,000." That article fur ther reported that a sub-com- mittee composed of Frank Met calf, territorial highway engi- neer, Oscar Olsen, territorial treasurer, and J. Gerald Will Hams, attorney general, would select the site.
 However that subcommittee in company with the full board met on Friday last week to grant a hearing to Mayor z. J. Loussac of Anchorage and Stanley Me- Cutcheon, representing Anchor age and Palmer respectively. Governor Ernest Gruening and MT. Williams were absent, but were represented by Acting Gov- ernor Lew Williams and attor- ney John Dimond.
 MT. McCutcheon pressed the Valleys advantages as site for the proposed building and con- cluded his plea with presenta- tion of a deed to a 1O-acre site, donated by John Bugge. MT. McCutcheon was also supplied
Valley frontiersman., 1949-04-28

with copies of wires and letters from other territorial officers and from cities in the Third Division area, who endorsed Palmer's claim.
 Both witnesses at the hearing based their pleas on the House recommendation that the pro- posed building be located north of the Gulf" Mayor Waino Hendrickson of Juneau, who also appeared at the hearing, said the House recommendation was a matter of record only, but not part of the law which ap- propriated the money.
 The city of Juneau is reported dickering to secure title to the A. B. Halh, now leased to the Territory and used for some of it's offices. If the city council is successful in securing title to the hall, it will be turned over to the territory for use as the building site.
 The city of Douglas also is re- ported to have offered land as a site for the office buildings.
 Henry Benson, territorial com missioner of labor, last week wired the Chamber of Com merce that he would do every- thing possible to support Pal mer's bid for the building. He added that he thought it un- likely that construction could start before 1850, because of the territory's present financial status.
 Attorney general Williams, now Outside, has reported by telephone, direct to Juneau, that he will "vote in favor of An chorage or Palmer" when the selection is made.
