(Syllabus.)

The syllabus in the case of L. E. Lampley v. State, 82 Okla. Cr. 95, 166 P.2d 445, is adopted as the syllabus in this case.

1. Master and Servant-Statute Limiting Hours of Work of Women to Nine Hours a Day Applicable to Hotels and Restaurants. 40 O. S. 1941 § 81, provides that no female shall be employed or permitted to work in any hotel or restaurant more than nine hours in any one day, nor more than 54 hours in any one week.

2. Appeal and Error-Sufficiency of Evidence to Support Judgment and Sentence. The judgment and sentence will not be set aside where the evidence is conflicting, and there is substantial evidence to support the same.

3. Master and Servant-Evidence not Such as to Bring Case Under Exception Provided by Statute, 40 O. S. 1941 § 82. Record examined, and found that the evidence was not such as to come within the exception provided by 40, O. S. 1941 § 82, which provides: "That in case of emergency in hotels and restaurants, females may work a maximum of ten hours during the 24 with their consent; such females to be paid not less than double their regular compensation for such extra time."

This is a companion case of Lampley v. State, 82 Okla. Cr. 95, 166 P.2d 445. In that case this defendant was charged with requiring and permitting one Joan Ward, a female person, to work in a cafe managed and operated by the defendant more than 54 hours in one week, to wit: from and inclusive of August 1, 1943 to and inclusive of August 7, 1943, from 7 o'clock a.m. until 7 o'clock p.m., on each date.

The evidence and questions of law are identical in both cases, and the same statute, 40 O. S. 1941 § 81, covers both charges. One brief has been filed by defendant in support of his contentions.

For the reasons stated in the case of Lampley v. State, 82 Okla. Cr. 95, 166 P.2d 445, the judgment and sentence of the court of common pleas of Tulsa county is affirmed.
