Christmas labor rules urged for Pennsylvania merchants
Commissioner Joh Price Jackson urges merchants to close early during the holiday season to avoid law violations and keep clerks fresh. He stresses strict limits on young workers and weekly hours, with inspectors to ensure compliance rather than prosecute. Also covered are employment guidance from State Labor officials and a note on job referrals through the State Employment Bureau. Later, Arlington Company sale to DuPont Powder Co. at about 6 to 9 million dollars is announced, affecting 8,000 workers.
