THURSDAY, AUGUST 10, 1938. CODE ON FISHING INDUSTRY IN FLORIDA IS SUBMITTED WHAT’S WHAT at the CAPITAL COCOOSOHEOZECEOOCEEOOOS By HERBERT PLUMMER (ty Assoeinted Prexs) WASHINGTO: Aug. 10.—) President Roosevelt’s decision —A code of fair practice and com- gegen for the fishing industry in lorida, setting up the prices of fish and regulating working hours, was sent to fishermen and dealers: . today by George W. Da’ state | conservation commissioner. It provides a 44-hour week maxi- mum for fish handlers and office} workers. Regulation of hours of fishing was held impossible be- cause fishermen work on a per- centage basis, and their work subject to weather conditions. Minimum wage for any fish|[i@ handler was set at 15 cents an} hour, with the minimum for any office worker of $45 a month, Fishermen, the code provides, “shall be paid in acc \rdance with the following schedu), "rom Aug. 1 to Dee. 31, mullet, reafish, sheep- head and mango snapper—3 cents a pound; king mackerel—6 cents a pound; trout—8 cents a pound; bluefish—3 cents a pound from “May 1 to Oct. 31, and from Nov. 1 to April 30, eight cents a pound.” Differential In Price A differential for the dealer or wholesaler of 2 1-2 cents a pound is allowed on mullet, defish, sheep- head and mango snapper. The dif- ferential on trout and bluefish is 4 cents a pound. raintruster” cial survey of methods of com- batting may, for a time at least, quiet rumors of the reported break between Moley and his superior in the state depart- ment, Secretary Cordell Hull. In naming Moley for the job, Roosevelt made} it plain that nothing unusual was} behind it, that he would retain| his title as assistant secretary of state, and return to the depart- CORDELL HULL Moley himself had something to! assign Prof. Raymond Moley, head| of his administra-| tion, to the task| of making a spe-| crime} ment when the task was finished. | ° Because production is governed by wind and tide conditions, the eode holds that proration of pro- duction “does not sappear to be practical or workable as applied to the fishing industry.” Provision Given If a producer “shall at any time produce fish of any variety in excess of the quantity he is able to sell at not less than the cur- rent fixed minimum price, he to say on the subject. At Hyde; Park, after talking with the President about his new assign-| ment, newspapermen cornered him and asked if he would remain as assistant secretary under Hull. “L certainly am going to,” replied. “I know of no he good reason why I should not.” * And when someone suggested that it had been assumed in some quarters that he would resign, shall report the same to the con-|Moley snapped: servation commissioner who shall] “I pay no attention to assump- dispose of them in such manner}tions.” or such market as will absorb them with least injury to the general market price.

Thére’s no reason why you can’t fix up @ cool retreat on your back or front porch that ‘will give you constant pleasure. It’s merely a matter of combining cool colors with comfort. In selecting a color scheme for your porch furniture, it’s important, of course, to consider the colors that are combined on the outside of your house—the roof, the body of the dwelling, the trim and the awn- ings. Let’s say your house is of clap- board which is painted ivory and trimmed with a smooth blue-green. The roof is of gray and so is the porch floor. The awnings have stripes of blue, green and black in them. Why not paist your porch fur- niture in a soft, creamy yellow and trim it with a narrow black line? Or, you might paint the furniture white, trim it with blue-green, ap- ply a floral design to the backs of Your Every Day Vacation By LAVINIA SCOTT the chairs, with decalcomania trans- fers, and then use yellow cushions POA table OTe te ss caasctiis Bat p s your home is of dark. hot-looking red brick and the trim is of deep, reddish brown. Then your problem is to find a color for your porch furniture that is cool, but that is not out of key with the rest of the picture. Try a soft buff, trimmed with a pale green. Delicately-col- ored flowered chintz will suggest a garden if used for cushions. Orna- mental wrought iron stands contain ing vines, or ivy, will help, too. If your fibre porch rug is a bit dilapi dated in appearance, give it two coats of buff colored lacquer or quick drying enamel. Before the coating is applied, see that itis free from grease and dirt and thoroughly dry. Study your vacation room care fully next time you seek it for a mo ment’s relaxation. It’s important to your health and peace of mind to have @ cool and restful spot in your home. If your porch color scheme isn’t as pleasing as possible, plan to day to change it.
