R Sandwich, 111., State Bank Held Up Monday SANDWICH, IH.—®)—Four rob bers held up the State Bank of Sandwich Monday, fought a gun battle on the streets with mem bers of the recently organized town guard, and escaped with more than $4,000 in cash. One robber was believed to have been wounded in an exchange of shots as they left the bank. i_ In the early days in the west It ‘was necessary to drive spikes In telegraph poles to prevent buffa oes from pushing them over, Thera are trom 30,000 to 40,000 eggs in the ayerage shad roe, THE BANNER.-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA 40-HOUR WEEK AND MINIMUM WAGE ARE PROVIDED IN CODE (Continued ¥Fromy #age One) | tween business and the govern ment. The situation now is this: A ma jority of the cotton textile indus try has agreed upon minimum wages for a part of thelr employes and the maximum number of hours they shall work. About 23 per cent of the industry, officials re ported have not signed that agree ment. They will be granted hear ings this weck. If they do net ac cept, then the government will he ready to demand that they apply for federal licenses to operate. These licenses will require compli cance with the agreement, which was made a law by Presidential promulgation. . The President's modifications and clarifications of theé code left it unchanged as to minimum wages and maximum hours. Nop did they remove the bar against employ ment of children under 16 or the stipulation that no cotton textile plant may operate its machines more than 80 hours a week. He did direct that the code should apply to white-collar office employes; that the amounts by which higher paid workers' salar ies now exceed those of the low ‘est-paid shall be maintained; that the industry shall prepare a simi lar code for cleaners and outside workers, now exempted; that re pair shop crews, engineers, elec tricians and watching crews, if e€mployed more than 40 hours a week, shall get time and a half for overtime, Operative 4 Months ‘Because this was the first such agreement, and because conditions are changing, the President made it operative for only four months. At the end of that time, employers and workers may be asked to ac cept modifications or the plan mayl be extended as is. I In his announcement of approval the President remarked that after “years of fruitless effort,” the “ancient atrocity” of child labor has been eliminated in this indus< try “because this law permlts em ployers to do by agreement that) which none of them could do sep arately.” “I can think of no greater ach= ievemeng of cooperation, mutual understand and good will,” he ad ded. It would be unfair to omit a word of commendation of this great industry. It has proved it-I self the leader of a new thing in economics and government. That took faith and courage and patrl otism of the highest order. They have their reward in the result they have achieved and the example they have given.” This acceptance of the code came from the White House only a short time after the President finished a week-end tgip _on the Potomac river.

A Dollar Payment erative July 17—the second Mon day after promulgation, The President decided upon his action after rezding a reéport sub mitted by Hugh 8. Johnson, recov ery administrator who had worked all night Saturday' to get it ready Ag the President read, in the pres ence off Johnson and others, he re marked, “Bully!” and “great”! One Presidentiall limitation for bids any-cotton textile employe to put in more than 40 hours a week even though he worked in two plants. Another provided that the | minimum pay of sl2 a week in the south and sl3 in the north should apply even to working do ing piece work. Still another stip ulated that the administration should approve before any worker could be requireéd to increase his individual production by handling more machines, The President likewise directed that the planning committee of the industry, before January 1, 1934 submit a plan looking toward eventual employe home-ownership. He decided to exempt from the 80-hour maximum—for three weeks —machinery in mills that make varng of fabrics for rubben tires. He said that “approval of the min imum wages proposed by this code is not to be regarded as approva' of their economic sufficiency be cause of possible future develop- ments, ' The difference between northern and southern wages, Johnson re ported, was necessary because of variations in the cost of living. He said that in some places in the south, textile workers get houses from their employers for as little as $2 a week. That was the rea son for the Presidential direction that a plan for home-ownership be drawn, Increase Employed Johnson told the President’s like wise that around 400,000 were em ployed in textile mills in June but that if production reached the 1929 level, the new code would require employment of . 528,000, Minimum wages in the south very recently were $8 to $8.50; in the north, $9 to §9.50, he asserted. He found, too, that it would take $13.21 a week in the north to give textile employes the purchasing power they had in 1929; a little less in the south. The new plan, he reported, will bring an average wage increase of 30 per cent, a re duction of hours of more than 25 per cent. Even as this code was approved, coal, lumber, steel, cleaning and dyeing and many other industries were getting their agreements ready for submission, . Tuesday the complementary part of the recovery drive will swing into operation —the $3,300,000,000 public works program.
