'
A yoimg Journalism graduate
bought a weekly, newspaper and
printed This notice on his edi
torial page:
“We aitjft to tell the truth, the
whole "truth and nothing but
the truth.”
A year later it was noted that
his newspaper carried this alter
ed editorial notice:
“We aim to tell the truth —but
not so blamed much of it as
heretofore”.
When we are young we judge
harshly. - We are crusaders who
will right all wrongs. Every
thing is black or white. Noth

Requirement Minimum Wage
Law Cited By Commissioner
State Labor Commissioner
; Frank Crane has issued a sum
! mary of the chief provisions of
North Carolina’s new Minimum
I Wage Law, which went into es
■ feet on New Year’s Day.
Crane called attention to the
: following provisions of the law:
1. Starting January 1, 1960, all
employers of six or more covered
workers must pay each covered
worker wages of not less than!
75 cents an hour for all hours
worked.
2. An “employer,” as defined
in the statute, means “any in
dividual partnership, association,
corporation, business trust, or
any person or groups of persons
acting directly or indirectly in
the interest of an employer in
i relation to an employee.”
3. Coverage under the law is
spelled out on an employer basis,
not an establishment basis. If
an employer has as many as six
non-exempt employees, they are
all covered even though they
may work in different places
throughout the State.
4. The unit of time employed
for determining coverage is the
pay period used by the em
ployer. Any time the employer
has as many as six non-exempt
workers on his payroll, all six
are covered by the law for that
pay period.
5. Enforcement or the law is
the responsibility of the Depart
ment of Labor, under the Com
missioner of Labor. The Com
missioner or his inspector may
inspect payroll records and may
require from any covered em- 1
ployer a full and correct state-1
ment, in writing, of the wages,
hours, names and addresses of
his employees
6. Covered employers are re
quired to keep posted in their
places of business, in a conspicu
ous and accessible place, a sum
mary of the Minimum Wage Law
and any applicable wage orders
or regulations.
7. Penalties for violation in
clude a fine of not less than
$lO or more than SSO, or im
prisonment for not more than
30 days, in the discretion of the
court. After an employer has
been notified by the Commission
er or his inspector that he is
violating die law, each pay pe
riod during which the violation

or wrong. Nothing is partially
right.
What confuses us is the tri
umph of people and causes
which we know to be evil. This
makes us cynics or we seriously
seek answers.
Mellowness in judgment is not
weakness nor a surrender of
principle. The evil person or'
evil cause that triumphs wasn’t
all evil. There was enough j
merit to win in spite of evil j
aspects. When we can accept
this fact without quitting or be-!
coming a cynic, we are maturing, j
When we admit that we cannot
overturn the world, but will
j keep trying to nudge it a little 1
in the right direction, we are
fulfilling our destiny. Can any
‘ thing more be expected?
• continues constitutes a separate,
j indictable offense,
i 8. Employees may sue individ
-1 ually for collection of unpaid
wages, plus six per cent interest,!
in any court of competent juris- 1
diction. In addition to any back;
wages or other judgment award- j
led to the employee, the court;
J must require the defendant to
I pay court costs and reasonable
| attorney’s fees incurred by the
employee. -
The law excludes from cov-!
erage all employers of live or!
'less workers. Coverage begins;
only when as many as six non
exempt workers are employed.
The Attorney General has ruled
that in establishing coverage,'
f oniy non-exempt workers mayj
be counted.
The Attorney General also has!
ruled that Stale, county ana'
municipal government employees I
are not covered by the Minimum 1
Wage Law because these
mental units do not meet the
law’s definition of an employer.
Other groups of people spe
cifically exempted from coverage
include farm workers; domestic
servants in private homeij; hos-i
pital and nursing heme em-l
ployees; voluntary workers for
educational, charitable, religious
or nonprofit organizations; news
boys; shoe shine boys; golf cad
dies; bowling alley pin boys;
baby sitters; ushers, doormen,
concession attendants and cash
iers in theatres; traveling sales-,
men; outside salesmen solely on I
commission; part-time student
workers attending school or col-,
lege; persons under 21 employ-',
ed by their father or mother;
persons receiving tips or gratui
ties as the principal part of their
wages; persons confined in penal,
corrective or mental institutions;
boys’ and girls’ summer camp
employees; all persons under 16
years of age; all persons 65 years
of age or older; and part-time or
piece-rate employees in the sea
food or fishing industry.
Despite these exemptions, the
new law will benefit some 55,-
000 Tar Heel men and women
who have been receiving less
than 75 cents an hour.

out the consent of the prior i‘
beneficiaries. But unless the j
change is officially made, no |
choice is given to the VA but [
to pay the claim to the benefi- I
ciary of record.
Carelessness in designating
beneficiaries may result in un
desired consequences, the VA
pointed out. An example is the
veteran who designated his wife
as beneficiary. She divorced
him, and he subsequently mar
ried again and raised a family.
Should he neglect to change his
designated beneficiary before he
dies, his insurance may be paid,
to his former wife, and his wi
dow and children will receive
nothing.
Policyholders also have sev
eral options as to how me in
surance shall be paid. Explana
! tion of these options can be ob
tained by contacting any VA
j office.—
Congress has liberalized the
definition of an “adopted child”
1 of a veieran eligible to receive
benefits administered by the
Ve.eians Administration.
If at the time of the veteran’s
death, the child was living in the
veteian's household, and if the
child is legally adopted by the
veteran’s surviving spouse with
in two years after the veteran’s
death, he or she is considered
to be the veteran’s adopted child,
the VA explained. Formerly
the adoption proceedings had to
be completed before the vet
j eran's death lor the child to be
! eligible for any oi the benefits,
j including compensation, pension.
| war orphans educational assist-'
| ance, dependency and indemnity
j compensation and accrued bene
fits.
If at the time oi the veteran’s
i death, however, the child was
! receiving regular contributions
toward its support from an in
dividual other than the veteran
or his spouse, or from any pub
lic or private welfare organiza
tion, then the child may not b ■
recognized as the veteran's leg
i a'.lv adopted child, the VA ex
j plained.

Sunday School Lesson
STRENGTHENING OUR
CHURCHES
1 International Sunday School
Lesson for January 10, 1960.
| Memory Selection: "May the
Lord direct your hearts to tha
love of God and to the stsad
' fastness of Christ."
* (II Thessaloniains 3:5.)
r Lesson Text: Acts 14.
j The purpose of today’s lesson
is to raise the question: How
L can the churches imprrfve the
| selection and training of work
| ers as one means of strengthen
\ ing our churches?
® In today’s lesson we read cf
I the trials and'tribulations cf the
disciples in preaching the gos
k pel, and of the stoning of Paul,
j who was left for dead, but rose
L up and continued to preach the
* gospel in which he believed so
| profoundly. These verses con
[ elude the first missionary jour
j ney, which took about two years
| to complete. And since the con
i gregation at Antioch had been
i moved by the Holy Spirit to send
* out Paul and Barnabas, it was
[ only natural that the returned
f missionaries should have report
-3 ed to that church.

spread of the gospel, and for
this reason the whole cf the
Mediterranean basin finally be
came his field of operation. For
him, and for his fellow apostles,
this was practically the whole
world. Paul, however, never
viewed the church as a big en
terprise running the gamut from
top to local level. He always
remembered that the destiny. of
the universal Church rested, ul
timately, upon the effectiveness
of local churches. Paul risked
life and limb to revisit the first
string of churches he started in
Asia Minor. He did everything
in his power to tutor and en
courage them while he was in
their midst. But he dared not
leave them until s'.rh time as.
he and Barnabas had appoint
ed local leaders. Whether these
churches flourished or died de
pended greatly on these local
leaders. And to a large extent
the same is true in local church
es today.
Naturally we need effective
ministers and other professional
leaders in cur churches if our
j work is so prosper. But the
j condition of Lay leadership is
even more crucial. Poverty in
this area can Undermine, dampen
and hamstring the activity of
the best minister a church can
