Chairman Thomas of Utah urged a federal board to fix the varying pay scale while Senator Borah of Idaho opposed a board though he favored a differential. The issue grew as House action on a wage hour bill loomed with expectations of a differential in the Senate version prompting a possible joint committee compromise.
