Z THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thuredey, June 24, 1968 , $1.25 HOURLY RATE 'Labor Code Law In July. But Effects Will Be Minor OTTAWA (CP)--The new fed- eral labor code, setting a $1.25 hourly minimum wage and 40- hour work week, will become pang 1 but its immediate is expected to be neg- ligible. Practically every industry covered by the labor code has made application to Labor Min- ister MacEachen for the tem- porary deferments provided. The flood of such applications has been so heavy that it prob- ably will be impossible to make on them before the code's July 1 starting date. In- dustries are automatically ex- empted until a ruling is handed down accepting or rejecting their contention that immediate application of the code would! be harmful to them. A labor department official said Wednesday that more than 40 applications are already in, some from individual mills. A few of the applications have been filed by unions. COVERED The applications cover an es- timated 300,000 of the 400,000 workers whose job minimums will. be controlled by the new law. It applies only to the hand- ful of industries that come un- der federal jurisdiction, The labor department has de- clined to make public the list 'of applicants on the grounds that. the information would harm their competitive situa- tion. Many of the major indus-| tries, however, had. served ad- vance notice they would seek temporary deferments from selected sections of the code. The labor code act approved by Parliament earlier this year provides that a company or in- dustry may be excluded from the wage or hours-of-work sec- tions for up to 18 months, But applicants must first prove to the labor minister's satisfaction ies and others covering entire industries. Among them are believed to be the railways, shipping lines, that the immediate adoption of one or both sections 'would un- duly prejudice the interests of the employees or would be seri- interprovincial truckers, air- ously detrimental to the oper- lines, grain elevators and feed'ation of the undertaking."

City NEW YORK {AP)--New York City's critical water shortage-- described by some as the worst in a-century--grew worse Wed- nesday as another 1,000,000,000 gallons flowed through the pipes ito ease the thirst of the largest city in the United States. Despite a host of restrictions, consumption continues to out- pace the amount of water flow-| ing into New York's upstate reservoirs. Restaurants, car washes, home gardens, all have been hit by the new rules and New Yorkers faced the possibility of drinking water tapped from the Hudson River. The crisis has increased sales in bottled water and created a new industry: Water bootleg-| ging. The bootleggers are flourish- ing because of a city ban on the filling or replacement of water in many private swimming pools: Regulations require li- censing of water-hauling ve- hicles--but officials report that owners of some tank trucks are hauling water without licences. Water for swimming pools} sells three to five cents a gal-| lon, Small backyard pools may require 2,000 gallons; apartment house pools up to 20,000.

Humidex readings are ar- rived at by combining the temperature and the humidity figure. For example, if the tempe- rature is 90 degrees and the equivalent degree value of humidity is 15, then the com- bined figures give a Humidex reading of 105. The comfortable range on Humidex is 70 to 84 degrees. Readings of 85 to 99 degrees cause varying degrees of di» comfort while readings of 100 to 114 dgrees mean uncom, fortable conditions.

HIT STRANGE SPOTS For a Rhodes Scholar, Smith found himself in some strange places. In 1939-40, he edited The Baltic Times, a small-cir- culation newspaper in Estonia, He also was an assistant profes: sor in an Estonian university.

Smith will make his quarters in the historic, luxuri- ous quarters of London's borough House. He'll have a Commonwealth staff of about 20 or 39 with a fairly modest bud- get, initially.

Already. the British press have dubbed him "Mr. Come monwealth." ' "T don't plan anything dra matic," says Smith of his chal- lenging new job.
