Atlanta. O. (Special) "Uit
year almost 7.000 minora under
16 years of age wew found em
ployed on farms during eohool
boon In violation of the Fair La
bor Standard Act"
This fact was pointed out by
Henry A. Huettner, Regional Di
rector of the U. S. Labor Depart
ment'a Wage and Hour and Pub
lic Contract Division, in issuing
a reminder on the provisions of the
law to tamers and contractors who
expect to hire young workers to
help with the fall harvest
The Act sets a X6-y ear age min
imum for the employment of chil
dren in agriculture during school
hours and applies to children of
migratory workers aa well as to
local children. The only exception
is where a child is working exclus
ively for his parents or guardians
on their farm.
"The uneducated children of to
day are the unemployed workers
of tomorrow," Huettner said, "and
children who follow the crops are
usually more educationally disad
vantaged than boys and girls who
do not work in the fields."
Each year the Divisions find
some youngsters who are working
in the fields and have never at
tended any school. Others may
have gone to school but are usual
ly in grades below normal for their
ages.
Huettner said that children may
legally work in agriculture outside
of school hours or on weekends
and holidays, but their place is in
the classroom when school is in
session. t
' "All states also have child-labor
laws," he said, "and most have
school attendance laws. If the
standards differ from the federal
law, the higher standards apply."

as hi Social Security benefits ana
rellaattoM m history is now
moving through Congress.
Fainn of the "Social security
awtr""-' of 1064" now seams
a virtual certainty, and there is a
strong poasfhOtty that actual ben
efit boosts will show up in the
monthly checks mailed to benefi
ciaries Oct, 8.
Almost sural the basic clauses
will be nicked anant and changed
aomawliat in coming weeks. But
the informed prediction is that
they will go through substantial-
!ly intact
Tfce amendments are of utmost
importance because they affect the
nearly 20 million Social Security
beneficiaries BOW on retirement,
survivor and disability rolls
jmore than ever before in the sys
tem's history.
They are of utmost importance
because there is unprecedented
pressure today for retirement, vol
untary or compulsory. Social Se
curity retirement rolls are expect
ed to jump aa enormous 16 per
cent next year alone.
And they are of utmost impor-
eheskn an now the main source
tanee because monthly benefit
of income for record numbers of
Americans; for many, they are the
only source.
The now legislation would give
the largest over-all hike in bene
fit payments ever $800 million
in extra benefits in the remainder
of thia year and a full $1.6 mil
lion extra next year.
It would bring more than one
million additional beneficiaries in
to the system including at least
three major groups not now eli
gible for benefit.
It would call for increases in
the taxes we pa yimto the system
starting in January for the 70
million of us now contributing and
for our 5.8 million employers.
For the first time, mora man
one million service workers would
pay Social Security taxes on the
$1 billion-plus they receive each
year in tips and would be eligible
for benefits reflecting their tips
as well as wages.
For the first time, children ot
retired, disabled or deceased work-
era would get monthly benefits paid today
continue or resume their schooling.
It's estimated that 876,000 chil
dren would takO advantage of
this one provision.
For the first time, benefits
would be re-checked automatically
each year by computer to assurs
beneftcku-iea that they were re
ceiving the beat possible deal.
Bask to the new amendments
would be a flat 8 per cent across
the-board "raise" in benefits xor
all those now getting checks.
Also fundamental would be
rise in the "wave baas" on which
both taxes sad benefits ere figur
ed, from today's $4,800 to $6,400
This would hike payments oven
more for millions in the years Just
ahead.
Of course, the increases in ben
efits would be greater for some
beneficiaries than for others. They
would create new and higher max
imum and minimum amounts for
which beneficiaries would be eli
gible In every category. They
woold imnressively lift the aver
ages of benefite above the level
past the present cutoff age of 18
and to the age of 22 if they I increases and the liberalisations in
Both the Social Security benefit
provisions are expected to be vot
ed promptly because:
.M.inr now "election year"
benefits have bean voted Is every
other year since I960, wttk a atn-
gle exception. That exception was
iom a reason that pressure is
particularly strong
tions this year.
ltterallta-
ecross-
Not since 1068 has any
the-board raise in benefits or any
increase in the waga base been
voted. Since 1968, however, waga
level, and the .coat of living have
climbed
The package of 1964 Social Se
curity amendments is slated for
passags by both houses before the
and of August
The "politics" of almost 20 mil
lion votes is abundantly clear
and that goes for both parties, of
course. The socia-economic impli
cations of the trend also are ob
vious; the day-in, day-out buying
power of our retired citizens is sn
immense prop under our prosperi
ty.
