SEEK CASE FOR PAY LAW TEST
Litigation Delayed Until Airtight Grounds for Suit Are Found.
Times Special WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.— The Government and organized labor are both walking on eggs as they prepare to launch test cases against suspected violators of the WageHour Act. On Thanksgiving Day the act will have been in full effect one month. Hundreds of complaints against employers have been received, but officials will not say when the first litigation is likely. ‘They are exceedingly anxious to pick an airtight case. Attorneys for both the A. F. of L. and C. I. O. are co-operating by trying to prevent ‘ill-advised suits by aggrieved workers. The staff of Maj. A. L. Fletcher, Assistant Wage-Hour Administrator in charge of co-operation and enforcement, is making a routine - check of all noncompliance complaints, of which some 550 had been received at last report.
Some Complaints Adjusted
Scores of these are being dis carded as unjustified, and others are being selected for further inquiry. One or more of these latter will presumably be selected eventually for a lawsuit. Both the A. ¥. of L. and the C. I. O. report that some complaints received by them have been adjusted voluntarily after conferences with the offending employers— sometimes with the help of representatives of the Wage-Hour Division. “We are planning to go to bat in court only where a substantial and flagrant violation is found,” said Boris Shishkin, A. F. of L. economist. ; “It probably will be some time before we start anything. In the meantime, of course, we have no way of controlling the individual unions. ' I know of some instances where unions have planned suits for back pay, on behalf of members. In at#least one of these cases the employer finally came across, under pressure, and this may happen in the others before the cases actually reach the court.
C. 1. 0. to Co-operate
“The real problem, it seems. to us, will come when wages higher than 25 cents an hour are set. up in certain industries under the ‘indus try committee’ procedure. When this is done, and some employers within such an industry try to chisel, you may be sure the A. F. of L. will move in.” : At the office. of John Abt, recently appointed by: C. I. O. leaders to supervise activities in connection with the Wage-Hour Act,
it was said that any legal action by
the C., I. O. probably would be taken in collaboration ' with “the Wage-Hour Division. _ A number of violations have been reported to Mr. Abt’s office, and in at least one instance the employer nas capitulated after conferences.
DEFENSE PREPARES PLEA OF INSANITY
FT. WAYNE, Nov. 22 (U, P.).— Attorneys for Adrian Miller today are preparing an insanity plea for the confessed murderer of a Winchester, Ind., farm girl. They secured a brief postponement of hearings on the case in circuit court yesterday. Miller is expected to ask for an insanity commission report. His cne hope of escaping trial for the slaying of Alice May Girton here Oct. 13 is in' having the commission find him insane, his attorneys said. Prosecutor C. Byron Hayes says he will file an answer to "Miller's plea, contending that the former Racine, Wis., engineering student and sailor was of right mind when he strangled the 17-year-old Girton girl.
Wood-Chopping F ished Protesting Group Told
Informed that no more trees will be felled for the White River flood control project between 3utk St. and Cold Spring Road, the Indiana Garden Clubs today entered a protest to any other tree-felling projects that may be planned. The trees—about one hundred of them skirting White River in the project area—were felled Thursday by WPA workmen, all in a period of a couple of hours. f WPA supervisors in charge said
TOWN SPEED LIMIT CHANGES STUDIED
Survey Is Started in 200 Indiana Corporations.
State Highway Commission traffic engineers are conducting surveys preparatory to establishing speed limits on the portions of state roads located in cities and towns, if was announced today. Standard signs, warning motorists that they are entering limited speed zones, are to be erected by the commission, Chairman T. A. Dicus said. The surveys already have been started in approximately 200 towns and cities. : In all towns and cities except Indianapolis, the streets over which state highways are routed are under the control of the State Highway Commission. The Indiana law makes it prima facie evidence of reckless driving if a. car is driven through a residential section faster than 30 miles an hour, or through a business section faster than 20 miles an hour. The commission, however, has authority to establish limits either greater or less than these 20 and 30 mile-an-hour limits, it was said.
FIVE PRIESTS GIVEN RANK OF MONSIGNOR
FT. WAYNE, ‘Nov. 22 (U. P.).— With more than 200 priests and other church dignataries looking on, Bishop John F. Noll of Ft. Wayne today invested the rank of Monsignori on five Diocesan, priests. The degrees were granted by Pope Pius XI on Bishop Noll’'s recommendations. : The Rt. Rev. Denis Lawrence Monahan of Ft. Wayne and the Rt. Rev. Thomas Travers of Anderson, dean of the Muncie District, were given the rank of domestic prelate. The Very Rev. Felix Thomas Seroczynski of North Judson, dean of the South Bend District; the Very Rev. Michael J. Aichinger of Logansport and dean of the Logansport District, and the Very Rev. William Richard Arnold, a priest of the diocese who is senior chaplain of the U. S. Army, all were given the rank of papal chamberlains.
MANITOBA FARMING DOWN WINNIPEG, Manitoba, Nov. 22 (U. P.).—More than one million acres of land has gone out of cultivation in Manitoba since 1921, Prof. J. H. Ellis of the University of Manitoba estimates in a report on soil conditions in the Province. 7,789,920 acres were under the plow in 1936, compared with 9,022,738 acres in 1921, he reports.

the trees either were unsound or were too large to be moved. They said that the river channel where the trees were standing will be more than sdoubled and that, therefore,
it was necessary to get them out of
the way. More than one hundred sound little elms and other trees were dug up and transplanted, the supervisors declared.
When completed in about two years, the project will have provided an extension of 38th St. across the river and the canal to Cold Spring Road, and a boulevard atop the levee which will skirt the river. The Park Board, Mayor Boetcher and members of the Marion County Flood Control Board all have approved the plans, which called for the felling’ or the trees as necessary to the project. John K. Jennings, Indiana WPA Administrator, said the WPA did not initiate the project and therefore accepted no responsibility for cutting the trees. The Garden Club resolution said clubs protested the marring of Indianapolis boulevards by the Flood Control Board and by the WPA, now or at any future time, and asked that “proper publicity be given any contemplated move to destroy natural scenic beauty along our roads and drives.”

Silence
6-Year-Old Daughter of Mute May Learn to Speak.
OLUMBUS, O. Nov. 22 (U. P.).—Psychologists believed today that within two years they could make a normal child of 6-year-old Annabelle Barton, -who has spent most of her life isolated in one room with ner mute mother, communicating in a sign language only they understand. The mother, Addie Belle Barton, 26, and the child, were separated today for the first time. Annabelle was in the Children’s Hospital, being prepared for an operation to straighten her bowed legs. Psychologists from Ohio State University undertook to teach her to speak. The mother, who is unmarried, was cared for by relatives at Mt. Vernon. Her grandmother explained that she had been a mute since the age of 2, when she was struck in the eye with a shot from a B-B gun and was so terrified by the sight of an X-ray machine in a doctor’s office that she lost her speech.
