A West Berlin officer described the new boundary as the Chinese Wall, a nearly six foot high concrete block wall with iron for barbed wire atop. It is not continuous, but blocks streets and possible escape routes, while East German troops appeared subdued and reluctant to converse. A West German bystander mocked a potential revolution, and locals noted many soldiers were not Berliners.

Bright Outlook For Underpaid Working Woman
Washington sees Labor Day gains for about 700,000 newly covered workers under the Fair Labor Standards Act. More than 500,000 are in retail, many women, who will receive a 1 dollar minimum starting September 1963, with future increases to 1.15 in 1964 and 1.25 in 1965, plus overtime rules. The report notes no new state minimum laws, but Maine and California tightened enforcement and wage collection. In 1960 full time year round workers earned 5296 for women and 5435 for men, reflecting occupational pay gaps and overtime effects.
