GRISWOLD HITS WAGE-HOUR BILL § AS HASTY ERROR

Measure Might Injure Well Paid Workmen, Hoosier Says.

By DANIEL M. KIDNEY Times Staff Writer

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.—The amended Senate Wages and Hours Bill, reported favorably in the House, may result in injury te well paid workmen without aiding those who are not, according to Rep. Glenn Griswold (D. Ind).

As a member of the House Labor Committee, from which the measure was reported, Mr. Griswold spoke yesterday on the bill. For many years an attorney for the railway labor brotherhoods, Mr. Griswold is considered an authority on union labor problems. He said the approval of President William Green of the A. F. of IL. should not be taken for unanimous indorsement of the measure by labor’s rank and file.

Explains Origin

Mr. Griswold explained how the present measure came into being as follows:

“We have, in this wages and hours bill, gone into the legislative laboratory and taken from the shelf a little of the knowledge of wages, a little of the knowledge of hours, less of the knowledze of bysiness competition, slightly less of the knowledge of plant management, a teaspoonful of the machine age, a couple of drops of freight rates, a great amount of hope and an insignificant portion of faith and mixed them all together and bottled them into the high explosive in this bill. “Congress has mixed it hastily and we can know that the old adage will hold true: ‘What is done in haste can be regretied at leisure.

Cites Intent of Bill

He then explained that the intent of the wages and hours bill was to establish a floor below which wages could not be paid and a ceiling beyond which hours of work could not go.

“We need legislation to cure this evil, but we do not want legislation that will raise the standards of living for the low paid either a very little or not at all and which will at the same time reduce or destroy entirely the income of the laborers who are more fortunate how, “We have no adequate informaiion on which to base a wages and hours bill at this time.” Rep. Griswold reviewed the committee hearings, held jointly with the Senate and claimed that about all that was disclosed was that the “field is vast and highly controversial.” Hits Exemptions

He cited the numerous exempfions written into the bill and contended they were based more on group pressures than basic justice. In the retail field, he said, local merchants will come under the law and itinerant salesmen be exempt. He attacked the broad powers conferred upon the board to grant exemptions based on living costs in communities and to plants within an industry. He also criticized the requirement that cases appealed from the board must be staken to the Federal Court of Appeals, rather than te the district court.

“MISSING” GIRL WINS PLACE WITH CIRCUS

By Tmited Press NORFOLK, Ca. Aug. 10.=Doris (Billy) Major, beautibul, blond Washington, D. C., cigaret girl who had been mysteriously missing eight days, won her father’s reluctant permission to start a career as a Cir= cus bareback rider. “1 guess it’s better than the river,” vemarked her fatner, Malcolm G. Major, Washington newspaper artist. after the two were reunited here. Miss Major’s beautiful blond hair and gliding walk led to her identification. The captain of a boat on which she went for a ride two days ago remembered that he had seen her last winter at Washington's fashionable Shoreham Hotel where she worked.

POLIGE SAY MAN PROMISED JOBS, TRAVEL FOR $75

Suspect Arrested in Texas

Allegedly Called Self University Head.

State police left today for San Antonio, Tex. to bring back a man

who, they charge, worked a nation- |

wide “flim-flam” game by preying on youth's incurably romantic urge for travel. State Police said he is William Kennedy. They claim he swindled 875 each out of an unknown num-=-ber of youths for whom he promised to find jobs in Peru, South America. He was arrested last night in San Antonio 15 minutes after authorities here had asked police to look for him, Capt. Matt Leach, State police head, said. Capt. Leach said Kennedy apparently worked all over the country, representing himself as prezident of the “Pan-American University” in Peru. A complaint was.filed by a Tipton youth, David L. Simpson, Capt. Leach said. Mr. Simpson said he gave $75 to Kennedy, who promised to make him his private secrctary. Mr. Simpson said he then went to New York to meet Kennedy in a hotel, but Kennedy failed to show up. While he was there, Mr. Simpson said he met three others who

| also had been promised jobs at the

| carried “the highest possible” | dentials, including letters from Cor-

“university.” He then returned to Tipton, Mr. Simpson said, and his father notified authorities. Capt. Leach said another com=plainant, W. Gleinn Shutters, Kokomo, had appeared. He said Mr. Shutters charged Kennedy had hired him as his business manager. Mr, Shutters declared Kennedy cre-

dell Hull, Secretary of State, and from the Carnegie Foundation. He said he checked the PanAmerican Union in Washington and was told there is a Pan-American University operating in Peru.
