Coal Industry Code Next For Recovery Plan
Washington June 30 The coal industry code faces Brig Gen Hugh 8 Johnson as the next major recovery task. Steel and textiles codes follow with Johnson revising the textile code while awaiting approval from President Roosevelt. The coal code calls for a 36 to 40 hour work week, a minimum wage near 40-45 cents per hour, and elimination of workers under 16, with a 10 percent living-cost allowance and a minimum price tied to production costs under government supervision. Major operators dispute weekly flat rates and seek language on collective bargaining, while Ben Gray notes operators control 225 million tons of 1932 output. Robert W Johnson backs shorter hours for textile workers and supports the broader recovery program.
