Quit by Andrews

Elmer F. Andrews, chief of the

to the opposition of organized la
cor today and withdrew his sup
port from a proposal which would
exempt from the wage-hour law
Hwhite collar" workers getting a
guaranteed monthly Income ot
$200 or more.
Exemption of this class of
workers was among the amend
ments recommended to this ses
sion of congress by Andrews.
"I put that in as a thing that
would make the act administra
tively easier," he said at a press
conference.
"It was opposed by organised
labor and now that organized la
bor has done such a swell job of
helping me fight my battles, I
think it would be unethical for me
to press for that amendment if
they object to it." v
.An American Federation of La
bor , spokesman said the AFL nev
er had announced its position on
the "white collar" exemption but
considered that $200 a month was
too low.

opposed to all wage-hour amend
ments unless the act could be
made stronger.
