July 31. (AP The old question of what constitutes Interstate commerce, a point of legal controversy throughout the Roose velt administration. Is developing as the first big problem of the new wage hour administration. Government attorneys studying the question say that when the answer finally is written, It will come not from Administrator Elmer F. Andrews, who hae charge of enforcing the new lobor law, but from the courts. Litigation Looms. There are predictions In govern ment circles that In view of Inquir ies already coming In from business me nthroughout the country, a large amount of litigation will arise over this subject. One attorney said the law as drawn gave the administrator no power to decide which individual businesses come within Its provisions This, he said, has created an element of uncertainty for businesses on the borderline of Interstate commerce. Ho gave this example: A furniture manufacturer who sells all his finished products In the state In which he operates buys his lum ber from outside the state. Uncer tain whether he should comply with the wage-hour law, he asks the ad ministrator for an opinion. The ad ministrator can give him no official opinion under the law. He can, however, give his unoffi cial view, which might bo that the manufacturer was not subject to the law. If the manufacturer operated on that basis ,he still would be liable to civil suit by hts employes or to crim .nal action by the government should one or the olther decide that perhaps he ought to be operating under the law. Kffeettve October :!4. Thus the court would have to ln terpret the Interstate commerce clause of the constitution In order to decide the suit. The wage-hour law will become ef fective October 24. It provides that virtually all businesses In Interstate commerce must then begin paying a minimum of 25 cents an hour And working employes not more than 44 hours a week. Labor department authorities say Installation of officers of Rogue River council of the Knlghta of Co lumbus will be held on Tuesday. August 3. It was announced at the tegular meeting Tuesday night In ha parish hall. The district picnic will be held at Diamond lake on Sunday. August 31, It was announced. Father F. W.
