It is not known who the trustees will secure to succeed Miss Cordon in the capacity in which she has served for several years. Miss Cordon stated that she expects to take a vacation or two or three months before she accepts other work, as she has been constantly on the job at the hospital for a long time, and her brothers insist that she rest and visit them.

That was one of the many remarkable gains cited on the occasion of the third birthday of the law by General Phillip B. Fleming, its administrator. Fleming listed these other impressive benefits: "Hundreds of thousands ,of American workers who once got so little for their labor that they could not live without charity or relief have been made selfsupporting. "Responsible employers wno pay fair wages have been partially freed from the competition of irresponsible employers. "More than a hundred million dollars additional is being paid to labor this year because Df this law. "The reasonable and just principle that extra long hours of ivork should be paid for with ;xtra overtime has been firmly jstablished. 1 "In enforcing the law, we lave made employers pay about ?16,000,000 in back wages legally iue to about, 500,000 workers." The Wage-Hour Administra;ion plans to make the *40-cent 'bottom" universal in industries covered by the act, as rapidly as possible, Fleming declared.
