The sole purpose of the action,
1t was announced, was to force the
American oil industry to sell it's
products cheaper, without regard to
costs and without regard to the in
dustry at large. In its original con-
ception the Sherman antitrust act
was intended to protect small en-
terprises against the crushing
strength of great corporations but
in this case the new-deal attor-
ney general has turned the guns
on the small enterprises.
Lower prices for petroleum pro-
duction are Of great importance to
the government in its defense pro-

should be determined not on the

Of rush work at the peak Of the
harvest.
Secretary Wallace-One other
thing that worries some farmers, /
believe, is the fear that wage and
hour legislation either applies now,
or will soon apply, to their own hired
man. You know that farm income
Is so low that most farmers would
flnd 1t impossible to pay city wages
under anything like present eco
nomic conditions. Do you feel this
fear is justified?
Farm Labor Not In Act.
Col. Fleming-Neither the wage
and hour law, nor any of the amend
ments to 1T so far proposed, con-
template including farm labor in
the act. At no time has farm labor
been included. I should like to
emphasize that. Neither the farm
ers hired man, nor his harvest
hands, nor his berry pickers, nor
anybody employed by the farmer to
work on the farm is in any way
affected by the wage and hour law
Secretary Wallace fact, to-
gether with your earlier statement
Of your present policy, indicates
chat the wage and hour law will not
increase farmers costs. But there
are other reasons why farmers
should support the law.
Farmers and wage earners are
among the low-income groups OF
our population. Both have bene-
fitted from the progressive legisla-
ton of the last few years. Recent
legislation for the protection of
farmers could not have been en-
acted had not congressional repre-
sentatives of the city workers joined
in supporting it. For example, 63
per cent of the city representatives
voted for the original A. A. A. legis-
lation in 1888. Sixty-three per cent
OF them voted for the revised A.
A. A. program of 1888. I regret to
say that the Congressman from farm
areas seem less disposed to support
measures for industrial workers.
While "a per cent of the urban
Congressman approved the wage
and hour law in 1888, only 80 per
cent of the rural Congressman
voted for it. I hope that farmers
come to realize the necessity for
increased cooperation with labor,
so that labor will continue to CO.
operate with farmers. I do not like
Evening star., 1940-04-23

gained much more from higher de-
mand than they paid in higher
marketing costs.
Overtime Issue Discussed.
Col. Fleming-We are certain, Mr..
Secretary, that the operation OF the
wage and hour law to date has not
resulted In any general increase of
farm marketing costs. We realize
that most farmers and wage earners
receive only small incomes, and that
to help labor by taking money away
from the farmer certainly is no gain
In our economic situation as a whole.
Labor costs in the canning industry
are so small that 80 cents an hour
would add only an imperceptible
amount to the price Of the product.
However, right now we are REIN
vestigating to see whether any en-
ployes Of canning factories and the
like are receiving the 30-cents-an-
hour minimum wage to the disad-
vantage OF farmers. ~
Secretary Wallace am sure that
Will be reassuring to farmers. But
good many Of the complaints di-
rected at the law seem to be con-
cerned with the overtime provisions
OF the act. The necessity of paying
time for hours. worked
over AZ a week, they say, inflicts
real hardship, especially at harvest
time, when processing and packing
are at the seasonal peaks.
Col. Fleming-That argument is
based on misunderstanding of the
way the act works. It permits over
time work during seasonal opera
ttons without paying the extra time
and-a-haf rate, and there is ample
f1exibility to make that apply in any
case where farmers might be hurt
by limiting the hours. AS it now
stands the act provides that opera
tions in cheese factories Except proc
ess cheese), cotton gins and COM
presses, milk plants, and many SINH
lar industries, are completely exempt
from the hours limitations. In addi-
ton, packing and canning of perish
able or seasonal fruits and vege-
tables, and slaughtering and han
ding of livestock and poultry, are
exempt from the maximum hours for
IA weeks, during which time only the
minimum wage per hour applies.
The act also provides that any other
industry can have its maximum
hours raised up to 56 a week for
period of IA weeks, if it shows that
it is Of seasonal character. AS a
result Of these provisions, either
throughout the year for some in
dustries, or in other industries during
the 14-week period, which is long
enough to take care of the harvest
period, the hours provisions of the
act do not apply at all or else permit
the 56-hour work week maximum. I
suspect that good many people who
are complaining that the act makes
it impossible for them to get enough
labor, would find if they inquired
that they are already allowed to
have their people work longer week
than the 42-hour maximum without
overtime pay, at least for the period
Evening star., 1940-04-23

ming industry or with those large
corporations who run packing plants
and food distribution lines and call
themselves farmers because they
grow farm products, which they pack,
or merchandise. The Department of
Labor made recent careful study
of vegetable canning In seven i'm
portant States. It showed that al
most half of the employees were paid
less than 80 cents an hour last sea-
son; Is per cent were paid less than
Is cents an hour. But the study also
showed that if all these workers were
brought up to the 30-cent minimum
the total labor costs would be in
creased only 6ll2 per cent. Labor is q
relatively small item in running a
cannery-under II per cent of the
total cost-much less than the cost
OF the tin cans in which the fruit or
vegetables are packed. So this 6la
per cent increase in labor costs would
mean only three-fourths of ! per
cent increase in the Gamers total
cost-certainly not enough to injure,
generally speaking, either farmers
or consumers. And to the extent
that inability to exploit cheap labor
forced the managers to adopt more
efficient methods of operation, as it
always has done heretofore, the
effect on costs would be even smaller.
Secretary Wallace-Your facts
there check pretty closely with our
figures on farm income, especially
of those farmers who produce fruits
and vegetables-the very products
where most of the wage and hour
argument seems to center. Returns
from fruits and vegetables were
hardly affected by the Wage and
Hour Act in 1888, as it was not until
October, 1888, that even the 25-cent
minimum wage went into effect. In
1899, on the contrary, that minimum
was in effect most of the year. and
in October, 1899, the 30-cent mini
mum became effective Yet in 1888
farmers received 5000, 900, 900 from
the sale of fruits and vegetables,
while in 1889 they received $685.
600, ,00O-almost exactly 10 per cent
more. With rising level of employ
ment and business activity, farmers
