Wage Hour Measure Rewritten for Labor Department Admin
Washington labor panel orders the wage hour bill rewritten to be administered by the labor department instead of a five man board.

Congress aims to pass administration proposals with little progress on Roosevelt’s program, despite revolts rumors.
