Description
1 This appeal involves an action instituted by defendant in error, as plaintiff, to recover from plaintiff in error, his former employer, as defendant, the sum of $490 in wages and transportation expenses allegedly due him under an "Employment Agreement" entered into July 25, 1955, at Oklahoma City. Said "Agreement", or contract, was apparently on the same form used generally by said employer in the hiring of other sheet metal workers in the United States to perform its part of the construction of an air field in Newfoundland for, or under the supervision of, the United States Government. Under said contract, which referred to him as the "Employee" and to defendant as "Contractor", plaintiffs rate of pay was $3 per hour; and the contract provided, among other things, in substance, that he would be paid "travel pay" equal to five hours of regular pay, at said hourly rate, for each day that elapsed between the effective date of said contract and his arrival at the job site, and from the time of his departure from said job site until the estimated date of his arrival back at the place where he was hired (Oklahoma City) usually referred to in the contract as "Point of Hire."
