A discussion on the Railway Wage Law weighs whether it fixes wages rather than hours. The piece argues the law sets eight hour standards, pays pro rata for overtime, and may expand to all interstate carrier employees. It notes congressional power, state limits, and potential impacts on unorganized workers and unionized groups. Also reports a surprise birthday party for Miss Bertha Hartmann with cake, gifts, and well wishes.
