Minimum Wage
Boosted by Law,
Effective Today
By Robert E. Lee
United ires Btat'f Correspondent)
Washington, Jan. 25 iipi Some
1,500,000 workers got a raise to
day by order of the government.
No one stood to get much rich
er from the boosts, which average
Detween a ana ia cents an hour.
In all, the raises will cost em
ployers an extra $300,000,000 a
year.
The wage increases stemmed
from a recently-enacted law re
vising the wage-hour act which
lifted the legal minimum wage
from 40 to 75 cents an hour, in
terms of the 40-hour week, that's
an increase from $16 to $30.
The law, signed last October by
President lruman, goes into ef
fect today.
The changes it made in the old
wage-hour act directly affects
some 22,000,000 workers engaged
in or producing goods for in
terstate commerce. About 1,500,
000 of them have been earning
less than the new 15-cent mini
mum, the labor department said.
In addition to raising the wage
uoor, trie revisions:
Provisions Listed
1. Strengthen the child labor
laws by directly banning work by
children under 16 and, in some
occupntions, under 18. '
2. Tighten up restrictions on
innustrml homework.
3. Help employes recover un
paid back wages by authorizing
law suits In their behalf by the
wage-nour administrator.
4. Make .it easier for workers
and employers to determine over
time wages by tightening up the
definition of "regular rate of
pav."
5. Bring airline employes and
fish and seafood cannery workers
under the law, although continu
ing their overtime exemptions.
( President Truman sild In a spe
cial statement yesterday that, un
der the revised law, "the lot of a
great many American workers
will be substantially improved."
He said the statute is "an impor
tant addition to the laws we live
by." ,-

5 Persons Die
In House Fire
Hatboro, Pa., Jan. 25 uiFive
family members perished In a fire
today despite the heroic efforts of
the parents to save their three
small children. . .
One of the victims, Mis. Claire
Morrow, 39, had reached the safe
ty of outdoors, only to die when
she rushed back into the blazing
building to help her family. A
neighbor tried to stop her but
failed.
Police identified the other dead
as Horace Morrow, 40, aviation
machlnst's mate 3c at the near
by Willow Grove, Pa., naval air
station, and his daughters, Vir
ginia, 13; Patricia, nine, and Lo-
lita, two.
Their charred bodies were
found huddled together in the
children's bedroom at the rear of

smoke and flames, rushed from
his bed to aid the children and
was trapped.
The couple's only son, a sanor,
left the house two days ago to
return to duty. .
The Morrows occupied quarters

First Political
Returns of 1950
Now Available
(By United Preai)
The fist political returns of 1950
were in today from primary elec
tions in Louisiana, Massachusetts
and New Jersey. The results
were:
Louisiana Mayor Delesseps
S, Morrison of New Orleans, foe
of Gov, Earl Long, was assured
reelection by winning the demo
cratic nomination by a two-to-one
majority over four opponents.
Massachusetts Lt. Cmdr. Wil
liam H. Bates won the republican
nomination by a landslide for the
house, seat left vacant by the
death of his father. Former Con
gressman Richard M. Russell won
the democratic nomination by a
narrow margin over three oppon
ents New Jersey State legislator
William 6. Widnall beat the re
publican organization candidate
in a close race for nomination to
the congressional seat left vacant
when republican Rep. J. Parnell
Thomas was jailed for payroll
padding. George T. English took
the democratic nomination unop
posed. .. Considered Rebuff
Morrison's victory yesterday
over his principal opponent,
Charles Zntarian, was considered
a rebuff for the Long organiza
tion which had hoped to oust the
38-year-old reform mayor.
Governor Long had backed Za-
tarlan ps "a pood man." but fun-
loving New Orleonsians turned
mm down ior Morrison, even
though the mayor has clamped
down on gambling, bookies, pros
titutes and strio teasers since he
took office In 1946. ,
Morrison s supporters also won
a majority of the city commis
sion council seats , which were
among the : 29 city, parish and
state offices at stake. Although
the candidates must stand for
election on April 14, they actual
ly have been elected already since
the republicans did not nominate.
Bates, a handsome 35-year-old
naval officer who was barred
from active campaigning by ser
vice .'- regulations, defeated his
nearest opponent, C. F. Nelson
Pratt, by a six to one vote in
Massachusetts' sixth-congressional
district.
Bates' will compete with Rus
sell, who edged out State Sen.
John W. Coddalre for the demo
cratic nomination by a few hun
dred votes, for the congreSslonrl
seat at a special election eo. 11.

USO Operations
Will End Jan. 31
New York, Jan. 25 IPi The
United Service organization,
whose camp shows and canteens
entertained millions of service
men and women during world
war II, said today it has run out
of money and will cease opera
tions by Jan. ai.
The USO executive committee
announced "with regret" that the
organization "has no alternative"
but to discontinue its service to
peacetime military organizations.
The USO was founded on Feb.
4, 1941 and sent out hundreds of
units of dancers, actors and sing
ers to entertain American troops
at bases throughout the world. It
operated canteens in large cities,
including the Stagedoor Canteen
in New York City, and frequently
supplied free movie and theater
tickets to allied personnel.

Bridge Stolen,
2 Men Arrested
Athens, Ala., Jan. 25 iipiA 150
pound man and his 350 - pound
companion allegedly enlisted to
help steal an eight ton steel
bridge were resting up in, the
pokey today.
The $25,000 Plney creek bridge,
which first was missed when a
motorist found water not steel
staring at his bumper, was lo
cated in two junkyards yesterday
and is now on its way back to
Plney creek for reassembly, .
"And this time," engineers said,
"we'll bolt the-darned thing down
good."
Sheriff John Sandlln said the
original belts apparently in
trigued Fred Vlckers, 30, the 150
pounder. Realizing that he was
far too slight to attempt the ele
phantine task alone, he called in
350-pound Woodrow Moore, 35,
Sandlln said.
Then, said the sheriff, they
took it apart, hauled its sections
to Sheffield and Huntsville and
sold lt at a cent a pound. They
made $149.
Officers found the pieces "eas
ily recognizable as a bridge" in
Junkyards in the two towns yes
terday. Sandlln found Vlckers after
learning that the license tag on
his truck belonged to another
man. Vickers implicated Moore,
according to the sheriff. .
LEGAL FROBLEM
Denver, Colo., Jan. 25 (IB
Slate officials today mulled over

Churchill Sets .
Party Platform
London. Jan. 25 IP Winston
Churchill's conservative party to
day gave Britain's 50,000,000 peo
ple an election platform promis
ing continuation of their social
services, lower taxes, mainten
ance of full employment and an
end to nationalization of Indus
tries.
The party Issued a 22-page man
ifesto of policy titled.'This Is the
Road" one week after Issuance of
a similar document by the ruling
labor party.
Both documents, which set
forth post-election alms but did
not fully outline the means for
achieving thetn, were similar in
many respects. Their purpose is
to lure the vote of 34,000,000 eligi
bles in the Feb. 23 general elec
tion. ' . ,
The conservative document ac
cused the socialists of squander
ing Britain's wealth, wasting for
eign aid, following -instead of lead
ing in foreign policy, and push
ing Britain into crisis after crisis.
It also pledged that each Brit
ish family would have a separate
home, less control on their lives,
a basic minimum living standard,
and a cheaper government.
