Rationally denying the advisability of minimum wage and maximum hour legislation, the Debating Council met a team from the College of the Pacific yesterday afternoon, in a non-decision debate broadcast from station WAAB. Boston.
The speakers from the Stockton, California college spoke for the affirmative on the subject: "Resolved. That Congress should be empowered to regulate minimum wages and maximum hours for industry." Contrary to general belief, the team from the sun kissed state were debating in Boston, and not from California.
