RICHMOND, April 7 CAP).-
Legislation aimed at putting
all Virginia on daylight saving
time CDST) during the warm
season will be introduced in
the 1862 session of the General
Assembly.
State Senator John A. K.
Donovan of Fairfax says he
will offer such a bill in an
effort to avoid the mixed-up
situation that seems certain to
confront Virginians this
summer.
The Northern Virginia legis-
lator said it obviously was more
sensible for "the whole State

have an irregular pattern of

Hits Industry

Attorney General Robert F.
Kennedy said today that if
American management would
refuse to deal with racketeers,
the country would be rid of
most OF its major gangsters.
He reported that as chief
counsel of the Senate Rackets
Committee. as we'll as in his
present post, he has found
management failing to COOP
crate in many instances.
They take the Fifth Amend
ment without doing it public
ly," he said.
His comments came in de-
veloping a point made at his
first press conference yesterday
his call for a code of ethics
for industry.
At his press conference he
had stated that correction
wit hin management should
concern everyone in the United
States. 1t is extremely serious. "
Enlarging on that, he said he
was referring to "tie-inS with
racketeers" as we'll as price
fixing conspiracy
Today he cited these in
stances to explain what he
meant by employers dealing
with racketeers:
Importing racket unions or
ones less helpful to employees
Making gangsters partners
in the firm to try to force out
competing companies.
Fixing prices in colluSion
with supposed competition.
Signing union contracts and
then getting a deal on the side
so it is understood the con-
tract will not be enforced.
Paying attorneys to act as
fixes" instead of performing
legitimate legal work.
Mr.. Kennedy cited question
able dealings by certain retail
food chains, trucking companies
and a newspaper.
He emphasized today that
when he talked of a code of
ethics, he meant more than
"just something to hang on
the wall" He said that such
management groups as the Ma
tional Association of Manu-
facturerS and the United States
Chamber of Commerce should
have IAN investigative arm"
which would insure disciplinary
action where the code of ethics
is not lived up to.
He urged the code of ethics
with suitable enforcement to
deal with matters within in
dustry that are not clearly
criminal offenses. He said
when activities of an employer
indicated a criminal offense,
the Justice Department would
make the investigation.

be fewer ends of hair going

will be nodded like the God

fewer bangs and the forgot
ten forehead will become
more prominent. More of it
will show with the newest
styling.
Few of us have the time,
money or interest to jump
this way or that at fashions
whim. However, we all sue
cumb sooner or later, and
should to a certain degree if
we do not wish to look dated.
And, of course, we do not
want to miss the stimulation
which a change gives us.
