(Editor s Note: Here are answe ra to pertinent question about Presi dent Roosevelt new wage and hou r legislation now before congreis) WASHINGTON. May 25. (API Will the proposed labor standards law affect all workers? No. Unlike the NRA, which ap plied even to the individual pants presser, it would not cover purely local concerns or Intrastate service j trades. Those wose work affects ; Interstate commerce are its main concern. What guaratces would the bill af ford workers to whom It applies? The measure as drafted docs not contain specific minimum wages or maximum hours but leaves for con gress to determine what "oppressive" wage and hour conditions would be banned. Chairman Connery (D., Mass.) of the house labor committee said he would seek an hourly mini mum wage which would produce not less than $16 'weekly, regardless of the hours set. Is there anything to prevent the minimum wage from becoming the maximum? Instead of the flat minima wage of 15 a week in the north and $12 in the south, which most NRA codes sought to achieve, "reasonable" wage and hour standards for specific In dustries would be set by a five-man board. What would govern the board in Its wage determinations? It would consider the cost of liv ing and other circumstances, wages paid for similar work under collect ive bargaining, and wages paid for comparable work by employers who maintain fair standards. How would the legislation affect collective barganlng agreements? The board would safeguard the rights of workers to obtain, singly or collectively, higher wages or shorter hours thsn those set. What benefits would employes of Industries paying much higher wage rates than the proposed minimum receive? In many cases, sponsors said, they would profit from shortening of their week work, from prohibitions against employers using professional strike breakers or so-called industrial pies and from elimination of sub standard working conditions. When will the labor standards be come effective? Not until 130 days after enactment. What If an employer does not obey the law? First the board would order him to comply. If he refused, the board could ban his products from inter state shipment and could ask the federal courts to enforce its orders. Violations would be punishable by fines of $500, imprisonment for six months or both. Does the bill contain fair trade provisions? No. There are no fair trade prac tice or price-fixing provisions nor any exemptions from the anti-trust laws such as NRA afforded. Is there any substitute In the bill for the blue eagle? The board could require the label ing of any product if deemed neces sary to aid In enforcement. What doe the bill propose about child labor? It would ban from Interstate com merce product of children under 16 or those between 16 and 18 In occu pations which the federal children's bureau deemed too hazardous or un healthful.

Hamilton Lewi of Illinois, be whiskered Democratic whip, broke with President Roosevelt on the ex plosive relief issue last night In a speech demanding abandonment of the Works Progress administration. He urged that the task or aiding the nation's distressed million be turn ed back to the states. Lewis' unexpected attack empha sized the sharp cleavage In Demo cratic rank brought about by the new 1,600.000.000 work-relief mea sure pending In the house. Seizing upon President Roosevelt's wage-and-hour message In which the chief executive aald that "no state is Justified In sitting Idly by and ex pecting the federal government to meet state rosponslblllte," Lewis said the same sentiment holds true In regard to relief spending. "The time ha come for the. end of the WPA," he declared. "The gov ernment I not a house of charlt? We have been making a great error In not Informing the states that the United State Is not a bureau for the distribution of money.", A Lewi parted with the adminis tration on this Issue, house leaders prepared to pas the 91 ,500,000,000 work-relief bill tomorrow In a form satisfactory to president Roosevelt. M1 amendments to Increase or de crease the appropriation were crush ed under the Democratic steam-roll er last Friday. Card ofThank. We wish to express our sincere thanks to friends and neighbors for the kindness and sympathy extended us during our recent bereavement; also for the beautiful floral offerings, Mrs. Florence C. Eddy, Mr. and Mrs. John Eddy. Pttd M. Weatherford, pastor-evan gelist, spoke Sunday morning from the Church of the Nazarene pulpit, i using a his topic "The Graduate ! with a Future." His text was taken from 2nd Timothy 4 6-7 ... "I am now ready ... I have finished my course. In brief, the speaker said: "You graduates have come to the goal of your ambition, when diplomas are awarded you for your scholastic achievement. You are now ready for service, or for higher learning. Today the world is placing about your necks garlands of tribute for your victories. You are being greeted with mementos of honor that be speak the esteem with which this occasion crowns your efforts. You have been trained for leadership, the qualification therefor are definite and well defined. They are framed tn these words 'righteousness. Integrity, training, courage, and loyalty.' With out these pillars the temple of life cannot be successfully erected. The elimination of one will weaken, not to say destroy the edifice. 'Righteous ness exalteth a nation, but sin la a reproach to any people.' "There 1 not the faintest shadow of doubt concerning the Integrity of him who 1 bent on a successful ca reer. It a a betrayal to assume that one can do wrong without personal Injury. You cannot be dishonest and avoid the furtive marks of treachery. You cannot be Impure and efface the stains of dissipation. You cannot be untruthful and long conceal a vlol lated conscience. "Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.' "Beware of the veneer of life. Varf lty la the false thoroughfare that be trays Innocence. It Is the open road to hypocrisy and to the sale of Integ rity. "Let It be remembered that no re ligious, social or economic movement can aucceed without loyal co-workers. The Individual a a separate entity of society cannot hope for success, Keep alwaya In mlud the Ideal of loyalty Loyalty to self, and to principles; to associates, and to the cause to which you yield your talent. "May I urge upon you to capital- Ire upon your opportunities. Oppor tunity la the word which today Is whispered In every breeze that blows across your path. It is the sunrise to greet the dawn of your arrival. Let it not be forgotten however, that training 1 Indispensable to the pur suit of achievement, and to know where you are going demands cour age and hard work to arrive. "There 1 scarcely a tieid left that ha not been entered, but none ot these fields have been exhausted, either in research, extension or perfection. "One of the greatest opportuni ties presenting itself to you who have ( finished your academic courses. Is that of building a new humanity. ' The statistics of a year ago reveal : that there were an estimated total of one million four hundred forty- five thot5and. five hundred rlghty one major crimes committed tn the United States, according to the fig ures of Hon. J. Edgar Hoover, direc tor Federal Bureau of Investigation. This means that one of B4 persons In the United States was subjected to injury or death through this in iquitous crime regime. "In conclusion let me say, that de spite the handicap that besets your pathway, you are stepping across the threshold Into avenues commercially, socially and Industrially which have been made easy for you by hands which have previously wrought." Commander Joe File gel urge all members to be present next Tues day to register their choice for post executives.
