WHEN OLIN CULBERSON
nr discharged from tha
position of ehitf of the state
railroad commission's gas utili-
ty division political amhithms
of County Judge Roy Hofheini
of Hams county tot* on a con-
siderably -brighter hue. '
' Judgh Hofheini had planned
to announce -for railroad com-
missioner in the Democratic pri-
maries of ne*t Jut), opposing
‘ Lon A. Smith.
Recently there have been per-
sistent rumors that he would j
not enter state politics in the
coming primaries but would be j
content to seek reelect ion to the
post he now hoids. The war in j
Europe, it was said, had dam- j
pened his enthusiasm for a
. state race.
; But discharge of Culberson |
may change that picture. i.
♦ . .
Culberson formerly was sec-
retary of the State Firemen's j
association and long has been
active on behalf of firemen and j
their program. He always ha*
supported the firemen in their i
fight far lower fire insurance j
rates and for other things. ■ j
Sometime ago there were :
threats to “fire" him out of the j.
railroad commission. At that j
toe telegrams rained into Aust- j
in in a deluge that swept away
the opposition to him.
The fireman-are strong for
him and then* are a lot of fire-
men in Texas.
Lon Smith signed Culberson’s
discharge, along with Jerry
Sadler. Ernest 0. Thompson,
third commissioner, did not sign
There would be nothing
strange about Culberson sup-
porting whoever opposes Lon
Smith in the next state elec-
tion. If Judge Hofheinz de-
cides to announce he will be

RULING GIVEN ON
$mm WAGES
WASHINGTON, Oct. 20 <(XE>-
Wage-Hour General Counsel
George A. McNulty ruled today
that salaried employes to inter-
state commerce, industries now
working more than 42 .hours per
week must be given a raise In pay
if they continue to work the same

they now receive but who takes

rates of pay in order to adopt a
rate upon which he may calculate

He called attention
attention tp ante*
statutory national minimum wage
from 26 to ») cents per hour, and
lower the limitation on the regu-
lar Work week from 44 to 42
hours, with a requirement that
time and one-half be paid in cash
for overtime work. &
“It is clear that an employer
will violate the act if he simply
pays no attention to its require-
ments next Oct. 24 but continues
to work his employes the same
number of hours (in excess of 42)
they now work for the same sal-
ary they now receive,” McNulty’s
formal opinion said.
“In* our opinion an employer
who will continue to work iris
employes in excess of 42 hours
after Oct. 24 for the same salary
the time and a half, without In-
curring any additional labor cost,
stands to no better position than
the employer who simply and
frankly disregards the overtfme
requirements of the act.”
McNulty said that it also

me. to wake up in what I thought
was the middle of the night,” she
flung at him. “I don’t know what

-Rutherford has told' about those ’
footsteps, I think I must have
heard them, too. I woke up, I knew
had heard something, but
didn’t know what I listened.
Everything was quiet. I even got
up and went to the window. That
is how I know it was dark. As I
couldn’t hear or see anything, I
went back to sleep. You know, Mrs.
Peake,” Rhoda turned to her, “if a
person ran from the Rutherford
cottage toward the road he would
go right by my window."
"That would be the easiest and
quickest way,” Mrs. Peake agreed.
"But I can’t Imagine why anyone
wanted to prowl around here. We
never have sneak thieves except in
the winter, and then they only go
through the big wealthy estates.”
"You forget the jewel thieves,
mother," Josle suggested. "They
were here last summer and the
summer before.”
