D. C. Wage
(Continued From First Page.)
the statute many developments have
taken place and the Congress may
desire to consider whether the act
should be administered in accordance
with its present terms or whether
any amendments or other changes
are desirable. Under these circum
stances I have suggested to the Com
missioners of the District of Columbia
that they delay, at least until the
first of May, the appointment of the
Minimum Wage Board, for which the
act makes provision.
‘'Should no action be taken by the
Congress in regard to this matter, I
assume that the Commissioners of
the District of Columbia will appoint
a Minimum Wage Board and that
such other steps as may be necessary
to administer the act will be taken,
including the preparation of estimates
for a suitable appropriation.”
Care in Selection Stressed.
In announcing their decision to set
up machinery immediately to admin
ister the minimum wage law, Commis
sioners Melvin C. Hazen and George
E. Allen did not indicate that they
had received word from the President
to delay action until May 1.
Commissioner Allen pointed out,
however, that great care would be
taken in selecting the three members
of the board, all of whom must serve
without salary.
Lack of an appropriation to admin
ister the law will not deter them
from appointing the board members,
the Commissioners said. They pointed
out that other departments of the
it gives
SUN-LIKE
RADIANT
HEAT y
You need 2 kinds of heat for
your greatest Personal Com
fort ... and here’s a new kind
of completely concealed radia
tor that provides them.
From the Radiant Front
come radiant rays that warm
like the sun does—by radia
tion. From the grille comes
heated air that warms by con
vection.

local government could “lend” the
board necessary clerical help.
When the Supreme Court, In ruling
on the Washington State minimum
wage law, overruled the previous de
cision in the District minimum wage
law case. President Eoosevelt hinted
at the possibility that a new law
might be drafted in the District to
regulate minimum wages for men as
well as women.
New Upset Seen Possible.
Commissioner Hazen and Corpora
tion Counsel Elwood Seal yesterday
questioned the wisdom of exposing the
minimum wage law for women to a
new attack on its constitutionality by
broadening its provisions to cover men.
“We know the law is constitutional
as it now stands,” said Seal. “If we
want to regulate the minimum wages
of men, I believe it would be wiser
to enact a separate law, modeled, per
haps, after the present one.”
Seal, who will attend the board
meeting today, is expected to raise the
question of whether employes who
have been paid inadequate wages
since 1923, when the minimum wage
law was declared unconstitutional,
will be able to sue for the difference
between what they were paid and
what might be defined as an ade
quate wage.
Under language of the law as it
now stands. Seal pointed out, any
woman worker may sue in a civil
action for money due her where the
amount paid is less than the full
amount of the minimum wage set
by the board.
Salary Scales Set.
The last salary scale established
by the board before it dissolved, fol
lowing the Supreme Court’s first rul
ing, affected approximately 12,500
women. The rates were: For women
employes in mercantile establishments,
hotels and restaurants, not less than
34>/2 cents per hour or $16.50 per
week; women employed in the print
ing and publishing industry not less
than $15.50 per week and in laun
dries and dry cleaning establishments
$15 weekly.
The sweeping effect revival of the
minimum wage law may have was
pointed out at the District Employ
ment Center, where it was said that
in numerous instances waitresses must
depend upon tips in lieu of a salary
and that 2 high wage is $15 weekly.
Shop girls' average about $12 weekly,
it was said.
A survey made of local laundries
in 1934 by the Department of Labor
showed that 846 colored women were
employed for $10.10 a week and 478
white women received $11.40 per week.
New Scales Seem Necessary.
The new board members, one of
whom must represent employers, the
other employes and the third the gen
eral public, will be compelled to estab
lish a new scale of minimum wages, It
was pointed out, since the cost of
living in this city is the primary fac
tor to be considered.
The law provides that if the board,
after investigation, is of the opinion
that a substantial number of woman
workers in any occupation are re
ceiving inadequate wages, it may call
a conference of not more than three
representatives of employers, of an
equal number of representatives of
employes and not more than three
disinterested persons representing the
public. The conference then would
submit a recommendation as to stand
ards of minimum wages for woman
workers to the board. The board then
could establish the standards it felt
were necessary in view' of living costs.
The board is empower^ by the law
to administer oaths, to require at
tendance by subpoena of witnesses,
the production of books, records, etc.,
and such other evidence as it may
deem necessary at a public hearing.
In case of disobedience, the board may
Invoke the aid the District Court.
