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. The fact that “Franklin D
Roosevelt” was written across the
order before midnight made it op-

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. Secretary
Ickes, named ‘Saturday to direct
