Newspaper Page Text'If Papa Two THE EUGENE BEQI3TEB.OU A R D B (CONTINUED FROM PAGE I) higher commodity prices ami tack of doflnite assurance their own revenue would Increase or even continue ai its present level. As one merchant put It, "I may hire two more people onI the price of my stock may so up, forcing me to lQ' crease the price of my goods. But If the price thus becomes too high for me to maintain uiy sales volume, due to persons lieinf unuble to pny the increased price, I am faced with a serious problem iu keeping to the president's proposal." To the employers of large numbers of workers, the problem of adjusting their staffs to the 40-hour week wis a difficult one, requiring eoimidcrublc study to work out. Employers have till August 3 to complete their read justments and file their certificates of compliance with tho poatoffice here. The agreement is sent to the depart ment of commerce when it is fiigued by the employer. Classifications Puzzle Under the agreement, after August 1, the employer agrees not to. employ persons under 18 years of age except in certain specified instances. He agrees to work his employes not more than 40 hours per week or 52 hours per week according to his classifica tion, Tho minimum wage is to bo 14 . per week. Many employers wore puzzled as to what classification tliey enmo under, For . Instance officials of the water board were uncertain how to handle the hours ol their piunt operators, but believed they came mid-. the classifi cation calling for a 52fhour week. City officials nlso were studying the agreement to determine tlicir status and bad reached no definite dc cisioa Thursday. In connection with the wage phnse of hte agreement, some, were finding difficulty due to the fact much of their work was voluntary. Tho local lied Gross chapter was one of these, Mary Annin, executivo, being uncertain ns to the status of volunteer workers. In tho ense of somo mills, employers of which wished to hire additional peo ple but found themselves fuccd with -the necessity for increasing housing capacity, tho problem arises aB to how they shall meet the increases in ex pense in the face of ho assured in crease in revenue. All these problems, however, were expected to be worked out In time to file the certificates of compliance by August 1 and all employers reiterated their intention to cooperate with President Roosevelt In every respect. The board of director! of tho Eu gene chamber of commerce met at tho Eugene hotel Thursday noon and discussed the recovery program, but decided not to call a meeting of mer chants till more detailed Instruction!) were received. Instructions on mobilizing local businessmen into a united plan of ae tion for recovery are expected to be received Monday and when tliese ar rive, Edward U. Morris, president of the chamber, will coll a meeting of all merchants and the matter will be outlined to tbem at that time.

JOB 1 m (CONTINUED FROM PAGE I) wan proceeJiuif without bitch in all areas. Bales of additional material, posters and flickers bearing the cbaracterihtic blue easle of tbe campaign, together with detailed inntructions to local com mittees, were beiuj; shipped every where. More than 17,000,00(1 pieces were being distributed. Intensive work proceeded on the Hubbtitute codes for portions of tho oil Industry which the recovery ad ministration bus undertaken to whip into shape by Monday. Similarly, a committee of the lum ber industry was trying to revixc labor and price control terms of its own code to conform with administra tion policy, A new code was received from the retail coal industry, accompanied by a request that its members be allowed to put its labor terms into effect im mediately in place of the slightly more stringent ones of the blanket volun tary agreement. ilea rings continued on tbe code for tbe men's clothing industry taken up yesterday and a new bearing was be gun for tbe rayon manufacturing trade. Important questions at stake in cluded whether employer of labor now under contract will be expected to re duce working time while maintaining the current rate of pay, whether' em ployers with a formal code of fair competition calling for longer work hours and lower wages than tbe blank et agreement could put Into effect their own terms temporarily, and still receive the blue eagle badge of honor. and whether workers of all kinds paid on an hourly rate must receive as much wage as at present on the re duced schedule. William Green, president of the American Federation of Tabor, in sisted that no contracts between em ployers and labor should be allowed to stand in the way of carrying out the terms of the agreement on a voluntary b:iis. It was clearly Indicated the admin istration hr.d oo Intention of applying the blanket acreemont to orgiculturnl employers and in fact expected to con firm its ue generally to urlwn areas. iJumestic employment also Is not intended to he brought under its provisions.
