WORKING HOURS
AN INCREASE IN GERMANY TEN OR MORE A DAY (United Press Assn.—Elec. Tel. Copyright BERLIN, Dec. 28 Working hours are being extended to ten or more a day under a decree becoming effective on .January l. although the eight-hour day will be regarded as the normal. Time lost by national holidays and Nazi parades may be made up. Also, hours may be extended to permit the cleaning of shops and machinery and the serving of late comers, or if the non-completion of work would involve the employer in disproportionate loss. Five days hence Jews will be excluded from the retail trade, and it is likely that only 700 of the 3700 Jewish retail businesses in Berlin will be taken over by Aryans. The others will close.
