NO CHANGE HERE IN
FERA WAGE RATE
Harry L. Hopkins, national FERA
administrator, announcing the aban
donment of the 30-cent-an-hour mini
mum wage for work relief by the
FERA, declared "all previous rules
and regulations governing minimum
hourly rates of pay are herewith re
scinded so that the prevailing rate in
the individual communities for the
kind of work performed will be the
governing factor in determining hour
ly wage rates hereafter."
The effect of this will be that in
communities which have been govern
ed by the 30-cent minimum will not

govern their hourly wage rates by
the prevailing rate for private labor.
Abandonment of the minimum rate
will have no effect locally, according
to Kenneth A. Browning, relief
director. The Butler county minimum
since the middle of April has been
44 cents an hour, 14 cents above the
minimum set by the federal govern
ment. This rate will continue here,
states Browning.
A LASTING GIH
AT KREBS STORE
The ideal, long lasting Christmas
gift is a Christmas Frigidaire, ac
cording to Adolph Krebs, of the Geo.
Krebs' Sons furniture store, Third
and Court streets, dealer here for
Frigidaire electric refrigerators.
"Thousands of persons are selecting
Frigidaires as permanent, lifetime
gifts," he said, "giving to mother and
the entire family something that will
be remembered and. in daily use for
years.
"An electric refrigerator is more
than just a remembrance—a postcard
is that much. A Frigidaire in a home
does something few other presents
can—pays for itself in the savings
it makes possible by lowering of food
wastage and by permitting quantity
buying at bargain prices.
"In order that a Frigidaire installed
as a Christmas gift may be distinct
ive from Frigidaires purchased at
other seasons, we are affixing silver
medallions on, which it is stated
'Christmas greetings to Mother* or to
the recipient by name.
"A size for every type of family
and every gift budget, we have on
display large and small Frigidaires,
every one of which is a genuine prod
uct of General Motors."
