Bartlett Asks Waiver of
Statute on Overtime Pay
WASHINGTON, UPh-Delegate
Bartlett has asked Congress to
waive the Statute of Limitations
to permit employes of the Alaska
Railway and Alaska Road Com
mission to sue for unpaid over
time.
The two bills he introduced
would permit suits for overtime
incurred as far back as 1934 to be
brought before the court of
claims.
Agency rulings have held the
40-hour work week inapplicable
to employes in Alaska for vary
ing periods after it was written
into law by Congress. The claims
challenge these rulings.
Saud Remembers
Only ‘Warmth of
The Heart’ In U.S.
WASHINGTON, UP) — King|
Saud of Saudi Arabia left Wash
ington Saturday with words of
praise for the airbase-for-aid
agreement he reached with Pres
ident Eisenhower during a slate
visit her.
Vice President Nixon was on
hand to say goodby at departure
ceremonies held in a steady rain
at Washington National Airport.
Nixon apologized for the rainy
weather and voiced a hope that
it “doesn’t leave a toad impression
on your Majesty.” Saud, smiling
broadly said through an interpre
ter that it was of his consequence,
that the thing he remembers is
“the warmth of the heart.”
Prince Mashur, 3 Vz-year-old
son of the king, stole the show, I
as he had done in a number of
other occasions. The solemn
S faced little boy with the soft
| brown eyes was the last figure
to get aboard the plane.
Under prodding from his el
ders, Mashur waved goodby,
smiled one of his rare smiles and
then threw a kiss to Nixon, Mrs.
Nixon and their two young
daughters, diplomats, newsmen
and soldiers clustered in the rain
near the airplane.
His gesture wan a burst of
laughter and applause.
Measure Introduced by
J;m von der Heydt
Jim von der Heydt of Nome
i put in a bill last week to create a
i board of hairdressing and beauty
j culture examiners. It would exer
j cise general control over the op
, erations of hairdressing and
: beauty schools. It would license
\ ah persons involved in the beauty
j business.
Art Exhibition At
Fur Rendezvous
Alaskan artists are invited to
I submit their strongest current
I work to the eighth annual and
| first juried art exhibition of the
i Anchorage Fur Rendezvous. Well
qualified juries will consider
carefully each entry submitted
i aud select to be hung those
i which meet the sole standard of i
j quality based on the fundamental
laws of all art expression. No dis
j tinctions will be made that arise
I from any arbitrary tendency or
j school. Works selected to be,
| shown will be reconsidered by the
| juries for awards.
! The number of fine artists in
| Alaska has increased sufficiently
| to encourage the establishment of
I Professionally juried shows. High
standards, substantial prizes, and
an interested public help build
the prestige which attracts the
finest work of outstanding parti
cipants, raises the general level
of all creative effort, and achieves
a wider awareness of a rgeion’s
activity. Increased recognition of
i Alaskan artists may eventually
j bring them permission to show in
l more of the established State
| side exhibitions than are now
| open to them.
j Exhibition entry forms are
! available at The Nugget
