Southerners Claim Victory On Wage Scale
Southern Senators say they won a battle to keep Dixie wages lower than the industrial north. They expect a Senate House committee to approve exemptions from a 40 cent an hour minimum after seven years. The group debated bedrock 25 cent minimum with possible 30 cent rise and industry boards for exemptions. A separate relief and Public Works bill saw WPA funding raised to 1.425 billion dollars to extend aid until March next year.
