charge of proceedings. Senate friends of the Wage-Hour | Bill are disturbed by the House de- | cision to consider housing legisla- | tion ahead of the more controversial measure. The A. F. of L. is much | more concerned over the Housing | Rill than the Wage-Hour Bill, and | Senate strategy called for consideration of the Housing Bill last. However, the program may be changed once more if the Senate] continues to delay action on the| housing measure. When a bill finally completed by the Senate, it will have to go to the House Banking and Currency Committee and | also to the House Rules Committee | pefore coming onto the fioor. Study of the Wwage-Hour Bill as it finally came from the House La- | por Committee discloses a number of changes. in the section relating to imported goods, the Committee has inserted a provision exempting reci- | procal-trade agreements from any tariff changes made to protect do-| mestic manufacturers from com-| petition with low-wage countries | abroad. Another provision says that if limitations are imposed, for this purpose, a quota system for affected imports shall be drawn up. However, in another section of the Bill the Committee approved the | amendment which the late William | P. Connery, who was chairman of the Labor Committee firmly believed would bring all imported good under terms of the Bill.

Workers Exempted

In its present form the House Bill will exempt the following workers from both wage and hour pro-| visions: | All those who are not engaged in interstate commerce or in making goods destined for interstate commerce. all those in agricultural pursuits, all those earning more than 40 cents an hour and those working less than 40 hours a week, | all those in industries where the | Labor Standards Board shall find that “a substantial portion” of the employees are already covered by collective-bargaining agreements, all those emploved in a ‘“bonafide executive, administrative or pro- | fessional capacity,” outside salesmen, seamen, railroad employees, | air transport employees, any person employed in the taking of fish, sea foods, or sponges and persons preparing, packing or storing fruit or vegetables in their raw or natural state. These workers are exempt from | the hour but not the wage provisions of the bill: Motor-vehicle transportation emplovees, persons employed in connection with the ginning, com-

Farm Program Delay Forecast

Ru 1 nited Press WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.—House leaders told a group of farm-state Congressmen today that the Administration hopes to conclude its legislative program adjournment and consider only general farm program next year, with no special session in between. Speaker Bankhead told the group that the Administration sees no need for a special session in October to enact farm legislation. Speaker Bankhead and House

Majority Leader Sam Ravburn (D.! Tex.) told the group they Believed |

President Roosevelt would use his executive power to make price stabilization loans on this season's crops, including cotton.

The Bankhead's statement was

| taken to mean that the Senate and |

House leadership will seek to hold Congress in session until all major pending legislation on the “desired” list is given final consideration. These measures, presumably, would include tax loophole closing legisiation. and the Wages and Hours bill. The Senate is expected to take a final vote on the Housing Bill today The House Ways and Means Committee starts brief hearings on the tax Loop-Hole Bill next Monday. An

| Baby's Rights Upheld

| Ordinarily, hospitals must be guided by the wish of a patient, or | if the patient is bevond expression, | bv the wish of the nearest of Kin, In this case, the hospital asked City | Solicitor G. Coe Carrier to give an | opinion on its legal position. He | referred it to Common Pleas Court Judge Harry E. Kalodner, who found an old court ruling which held that an unborn baby had certain legal rights and could properly | sue for injuries ‘suffered by its | mother which adversely affected it, | Therefore, he reasoned, to permit an unborn child to die unnecessari- | | ly would be illegal. | | That decided, the hospital and Dr. Corbit, a tall, serious giant, only | 28 years old, who finished his interneship in the same hospital on |
