Detroit Customs Local No. 176.
American Federation of Govern
ment Employees. has written to
Chairman Johnston of the COM
mittee, asking that true time
and-a-half be extended to all en-
ployes regardless Of salary.
That group, as well as some
other Federal employe organiza-
tions, want overtime paid when
ever an employe works in excess
Iof eight hours a day or longer
than 40 hours a week. The bill
now provides for work in excess
|of 40 hours but not on an eight
hour daily basis. The customs
unit also wants double time for
Sunday and holiday work.
i At the moment, it appears that
the committee will approve the
bill in its present form. That
would be all right with most en-
, lploye groups. but they haven't
given up their effort to win even
more liberal provisions in the
measure.

had done all she could for now:
Mrs. Smithers would have to

not want Abigail to think she

thought, slipping between cool
sheets, to love someone that des-

feeling that life would not be
worth living without the one per-

sense it would be wonderful to
love someone so much.

much excitement, not all at once.
