OF THE ADMINISTRATION OF LABOR STANDARDS MAY 10 (legislative day, MATLCH 29), 1950.-Ordered to be printed Mr. MCCLELLAN, from the Committee on Expenditures in the Executive Departments, submitted the following RIEPORT On March 13, 1950, the President of the United States, by authority contained in the Reorganization Act of 1949 (Public Law 109, 81st Cong., June 20, 1949), submitted to the Congress Reorganization Plan No. 14 of 1950.
