provided by the federal government;
we must extract oil from shale and
coal; we must maintain the princi
ple of the family-sized farm.
Said Secretary Krug: "The basic :5
and traditional principles which as- k
sure the use. development and con- f:
servation ut our natural resources for
the benefit of the people as a whole,
were seriously attacked during the
80th congress by those who would
like to be able to exploit our re-
sources for private gain. This attack
came dangerously close to success, $
particularly insofar as it was directed jj
at the public power program and the
concept of the family-sized farm.’b
Testimony before the house and
senate committees on labor and pub
lie welfare in hearings on the in
crease of the minimum wage in the
wages and hours act, is enlightening.
More testimony insofar ns the larger
cities and towns are concerned is that
the raise from 40 to 75 cents an hour
mimmurri will cause no hardship
since that wage is already being paid.
Not so. however, in many small busi
ness concerns in small towns and
rural areas, mostly in the South.
Some testimony was brought out
that average wage of unkilled labor
in many sections of the South is
about 50 cents an hour and that a
boost of 75 cents willr put some small
business out of business.
Pxobably never so adequately ...
w.th question never so succinctly
or with such polish and-finesse has
a question been handled by our state
department as SecrefarV of State
Dean Acheson handled the Joe
Stalin press peace propaganda. Sec
retary Acheson punctured the phony
propaganda with such finality that
there could be no.question in any-,
one’s mind, least of all Mr. Stalin’s,
about where this country stands with
regard to Russia and Russia’s broken j-:
promises. President Truman waslJ't
