W. S. C. S. Meets
At LaFayette
An awareness of the problems
confronting the people of Georg
ia was displayed throughout the
conference sponsored by the Wo
men’s Society of Christian Ser
vice of the Methodist Church of
the Rome and Dalton districts
at the LaFayette Methodist
Church Friday.
In the workshop group led by
Mrs. A. A. Hardy, of Thomaston,
Ga., secretary of Christian social
relations of the north Georgia
conference, grave concern was
expressed over the house bill in
the Georgia legislature for re
registration of voters. The Rev.
Harry Mitchum, pastor of the
Newnan Springs Methodist
Church at Lakeview, urged that
the members get in touch with
legislators over the week - end
and urge them to immediate ac
tion to kill the bill, which the
Rev. Mr. Mitchum described as
perpetuating a political machine.
Dr. Dow Kirkpatrick, president
of Young Harris College, cited
the cross as a means of salvation
and a symbol of Christian faith
and said it should not be des
ecrated to create fear in any
race or creed.
Lynch Bill Favored
The group went on record as
favoring an anti lynching bill;
and discussed at length jury ser
vice without discrimination of
sex, color or creed. Mrs. S. B.
Kitchens, of LaFayette, stated
that Jesus recognized no dis
crimination in sex, size, color or
creed.
In the group discussing “The
Right to Safety and Security,”
the Rev. J. Walker Chidsey, pas
tor of the Chickamauga Metho
dist Church, read the findings of
the group. He stated that lynch
ing is a threat to our democracy
and urged safe and sane action
on the occasion of an attempted
action, by notifying the sheriff,
who is turn should notify the
state patrol.
Two of the groups urged com
mendation of the action of those
legislators who had voted to ban
the masking of any group in
public. Others urged that legis
lators be notified of the Christ
ian conscience on bills affecting
the public welfare.
Mrs. L. A. Harrell, of Trion,
was named a member of the
findings committee.
Those from Summerville at
tending included: Mrs. Henry
Walker, Mrs. W. L. Crouch, Mrs.
Rufus Pruitt, Mrs. Ruben
Garrett, Mrs. ~W. H. Boyd, Mrs.
J. R. Burgess, Mrs. Frank Hen
drix and Mrs. Carl Wilson.

THE SUMMERVILLE NEWS
Clarification Sought
Os 'Retail Service'
Under Wage-Hour
Amendment of the Federal
Wage and Hour Law to remove
doubt in application of its ex
emption for employees of retail
or service establishments would
aid many Georgia employers in
copiplying with the law’s mini
mum wage and overtime pay re
quirements.
This was asserted here today
by Henry A. Huettner, Inspec
tion Superivsor of the Wage and
Hour and Public Contracts Di
visions, U. S. Department of La
bor, who painted out that Wm.
R. McComb, Administrator of the
Divisions, has urged the new
Congress to act in this respect.
The exemption, Mr. Huettner
said, is applicable to “any em
ployee engaged in a retail or ser
vice establishment the greater
part of whose sales or services
is in interastate commerce.” Ac
cordingly, two requirements must
be considered: (1) the establish
ment must be a retail or service
establishment, and (2) the great
er part of its selling or servicing
must be “in intrastate commer
ce.”
Mr. Huettner said the Divisions
have met little difficulty with
respect to determining when the
second requirement is fulfilled,
but have encountered problems
in determining whether an es
tablishment is a “retail or ser
vice establishment” within the
meaning of the Wage and Hour
Law.Jn order to eliminate these
problems, Mr. Huettner explains,
the Divisions have applied tests
relating to an establishment’s
activities. While they generally
have been upheld by the courts,
the tests are not legally binding
and some problems of interpre
tation remain.
For these reasons, Mr. Heutt
ner pointed out, Administrator
McComb recommends in his an
nual report to the Congress that:

Veterans Corner
Education and training re
quirements bring many questions
from veterans who expect to use
their entitlement under the GI
Bill. Answers to these and other
questions are obtained from the
Veterans Adrainstration and
published in this column by The
Summerville News as a service
to our veterans.
Q: What are the deadlines that
apply if I wish to take my train
ing under the G. I. Bill at a, later
date? I was discharged in August
1947.
A: You may apply for training
within four years from the date
of your discharge. You must
finish your training before the
expiration of 9 years from the
date of your discharge.
Q: I am considering taking
on-the-job training but I find
the proposed training will neces
siate purchase of a great many
tools and some equipment. Will
Veterans Adminstration pay for
the tools that I will need?
A: Veterans Adminstration
will furnish you with tools and
equipment, provided they are re
quired by all other trainees tak
ing the same course.
Q: When is a Certificate of
Eligibility from VA for loan
guarantee purposes necessary?
A: It is necessary when the
r
“By incorporation in the act of
specific language similar to that
used in the tests applied by the
Divisions in determining the eli
gibility of an establishment for
the exemption, doubt raised
about the application of the tests
in varying situations would be
removed and uniformity in ad
ministration of the act could be
achieved.”
