considerable discussion lately
about foreign relations as a sub

Castro —There is no reason for
any doubt about the dedication
at Castro •to Khrushchev. The
conduct of Castro at the United

Americans. It is difficult to I
imagine that a person who oc

dimes will resort to the type of!

conduct would be amusing were:
it not for the seriousness of the
encroachment of communism!

The National Outlook
Failure Os The Minimum Wage Bill
By Ralph Robev
Everyone knows that the basic
reason for the session of Con
gress after the national conven
tions was political. None the
less, there was some legisla
tion that was regarded as im
perative. One bill put in this
category was minimum wages.
, But the session had adjourned
1 without being able to get agree
ment on this subject.
The House had passed its bill
before the recess. This provid
ed for ihcreasing minimum wag
es from SI.OO to $1.15 and ex
tending coverage by about 1,-
400,000. There was disagree
ment with both the increase and
the extended coverage, but the
Administration was willing to
•'Accept this bill. This i accept
ance was based upon various
studies which had been made by

worst. The clowning of Khrus
chev and Castro and the smil
ing interviews should not cause
us to forget the fundamental
issues between democracy and
communism and that commu
nism is dedicated to the destruc
‘ tion of the free world. Re
cent evidence of this fact is
found in the way the commu
nists moved into the Congo to
take over that troubled land and
almost succeeded.
Effectiveness of the UN —There
are many who fear that the
United Nations will not be able
to live up to the high hopes
and aspirations of peace-loving
peoples of the earth. This is so
because of the growing danger
of power blocs that tie down its
actions. If the UN degenerates 1
into a pure power squabble l
without dedication to the princi
ples for which it was founded,
America’s modern hope for peace
and freedom in the world may
be crushed. Therefore it be
hooves the United States to ef
fectively prepare for the fu
ture.
the Department of Labor show
ing that an increase to $1.15
would not cause too much dis
turbance, and that is the test
which controls the advice given
to President Eisenhower.
The Senate bill was much
more extreme in all particu
lars. It proposed the minimum
should be $1.25, that coverage
be increased by four million
(originally it was five million,
but Senator Kennedy agreed to
an amendment eliminating one
million), and that the test of
whether a company should come
under the act would be deter
mined by the dollar volume of
its sales, not whether it was
engaged in interstate commerce.

zona. On the day he made his
major presentation he held the
floor for • over four hours, and
all of his discussion was rele
vant. He maintained that such
an increase would threw half a
million persons out of work,
that in order for labor to keeD
current wage differentials as
between jobs there would have
to be an increase all up the
line, and he expressed grave
doubts' as to whether the bill
was constitutional as a result
of using volume of sales as the
test of coverage.
In spite of the arguments of
Senator Goldwater the bill pass
ed the Senate by a substantial
■majority and was sent to a 1
'joint conference with represen
tatives of the House. Here Sen
ator Kennedy offered to make
still more concessions but he
would not give up his proposal
for determining the basis of
coverage. The House conferees
refused to change the concept
of Interstate Commerce, and in
consequence no agreement could
be reached. Senator Kennedy
insisted that without this change
there was no point in having a
minimum wage bill this year—
that anything else would fail to
be progress and that he would
prefer to wait until the next
Congress.
Since bills do not carry over
from one Congress to another it
will be necessary to start from
scratch to bring up minimum
wage legislation again. And
since the next Congress may
be either more or less liberal
than the present one it is im
possible to forecast what may
happen. But one fact is clear:
Senator Kennedy has suffered a
major defeat, and it is not like
ly that he can make political
capital out of it. This is be
cause the basic issue is one of
changing the constitutional con
cept of interstate commerce, and
most persons can not be con
vinced that such a change is de
sirable or in the public inter
est.
The whole idea of the con
vention recess of the Congress
was an error. It was supposed
to be “smart” politics because it
was bPlieved that important
campaign issues could bh devel
oped—either by passing “desir
able” legislation and going to
the country with it as a record
or, in case there was a veto, use
that to show that the Republi
cans are not concerned about the
welfare of the public. That it
has not worked out that way is
so obvious that the only dis
cussion now is on how much
damage the special session has
done to Senators Kennedy and
Johnson.
A man who is master of pati
ence is master of everything
else. —Lord Halifax.
Records Should Be
Kept On Lamb Sales
Sheep producers who market
unshorn lambs this fall should
maintain full records on their
sales in order to make proper
applications for payment next
spring under the wool incentive
program, W. E. Matthews, chair
man of the Agricultural Stabiliz
ation and Conservation State
Committee, points out.
Failure to keep full records
in the past has caused difficul
ties for producers in obtaining
their unshorn lamb payments
under the program, Matthews
stated. The sales records for
lambs sold must include the
i name of the buyer, his siena
| ture and the number of live
j weight of lambs, plus the de
scription “unshorn.”
Lamb feeders who buy lambs
| should also keep accurate rec
ords of all their purchases of
| unshorn lambs, including dates
of purchases and tiie number
