                                  AN ACT

     Fixing maximum hours of service for policemen in cities of the
        second class A.

        The General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
     hereby enacts as follows:

        Section 1.  No policeman employed by a city of the second
     class A shall be required to be on duty for more than forty
     hours in any calendar week, except in emergency cases for the
     suppression of riots or tumults or the preservation of the
     public peace in times of riot, conflagration or public
     celebrations. The existing salary or compensation of any
     policeman shall not be diminished because of the reduced number
     of hours of duty prescribed by this act.
        Section 2.  This act shall take effect January 1, 1964.
