The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1949-12-22

testified, stressed the incompetency
due to lack of, or limited exper-
ience in potting processes of these
Puerto Rican Crane China en-
ployees. By way of persuading the
Industry Committee to maintain a
low minimum rate of pay for what
advantage it would be naturally to
the company in producing their
wares at lowest possible cost, while
on the other hand representing
their merchandise to mainland dis
tributors-U.S. Army, Navy and
other governmental agencies-that
their wares are of the highest quail
ity. This is double dealing, out
standingly selfish and ruthless in
its destruction of the economy of
pottery producers and workers
alike on the mainland
The Crane Pottery has the same
25 cent minimum as in the case of
the Clay Products plant. The shop
is equipped with tunnel kilns and
the latest equipment for making
dishes. The entire Industry Com
mittee visited the plant and after
half a day in observation of en-
ployees at their work in all depart
ments, it is my firm conviction
they are developing rapidly and
will prove themselves to be highly
skilled, competent potters. Most of
the workers are working at a low
hourly wage. Several cup jigger-
men informed me they were get
ting two cents per dozen net for a
cup that jiggermen in our china
shops on the mainland receive
about II cents per dozen for max
ing. This should give to our people
a realistic picture as to the serious
ness of competition in the mainland
of products Of the Crane
China Company.
Our efforts to establish fair
minimum wage met with obstacles
on all sides. Everyone in Puerto
Rico, it seemed, including the work
ers themselves, constantly spoke
of the inferiority of the average
Puerto Rican, due in the main to
malnutrition and under nourish-
ment which has been their afflic-
tion for many years. Imagine our
dismay when Puerto Rican labor
ON the committee
voted against establishment of rs
cents per hour, because they were
afraid if wage rates imposed were
high it might result in plants clos
ing down, with consequent loss of
jobs. The 40 and 80 cent minimum
were the best that we could recon-
mend with the support of the is
land labor members Of the commit
tee.
Industry Committee recommen-
1ationS are subject TO final APP
proval Of the Wages and Hours
Administrator. The law specifically
provides Industry Committees to
investigate economic and competi-
live conditions before making re-
,ommehdation of a minimum wage
which should not exceed rs cents
per hour. 1t further directs that
shall not be substanti-
ally curtailed or give a competitive
advantage over any industry in the
United States outside of Puerto
Rico and the Virgin Islands. | am
certain the 40 and 80 cent minimum
will give tremendous advantage
20 the Puerto Rican potterS, en-
Dloyment will increase rapidly. My
grave concern is the competitive
advantage on the mainland that
will accrue to the Crane China
Company because of the low min
mum recommended and damage to
opportunities of our
members.

bound to provide the answer tc
the Milton Berle problem. It may
even be time itself, but the COM
petition is not depending on that
alone. People keep trying to think
up ways and means Of wheedlins
some of that mammoth Tuesday
night TV audience away from the
comic, though he has stood of
every attack with ease so far.
The latest network to think II
has the answer is CHS. according
to word from New York. The CHS
bid for a Tuesday night at 8
audience, II the plans now in the
works 60 through. will be wres-
ting. of all things. 1t will not be
entirely wrestling. however. It will
be wrestling with Abe Burrows at
the st. Nicholas Arena to do the
commentary. This is either the
zaniest or the wisest idea any one
in television has had in some time.
The opposition need to do
something about Berle is rather
clearly indicated in the results Of
a survey conducted here recently
by the Audience Research Bureau.
A Tuesday night spot check re-
vealed the startling information
that Berle starts his show with
only six-tenths of l per cent of
the TV audience watching any,
thing else.
Just before 8 o'clock. the sur
vey indicated. 31.5 per cent of the
Washington set owners were
watching television. At 8 o'clock
this jumped to 64.5 per cent, with
$50 per cent tuned to WNBW.
Later on in the hour. Berle's share
of the viewers increased little,
leaving only three -tenths of l per
cent to the competition.
What wrestling will do to Abe
Burrows, or Burrows to wrestling,
can only be guessed at this point.
What the two of them together
will do to Berle can't even be
guessed. What Berle will do right
back can be guessed. however. The
odds are eight to five right now
that the night the Burrows op-
position starts will see some one
like Gorgeous George as the guest
start on the Berle show.

Wendy Barrie does not seem the
type who would run to the near
est psychiatrist at the first sign
of problem, but if she develops
the phobia that she is being fol-
lowed it will be understandable
Miss Barrie, who is easily televi-
sion's most charming hostess, has
been used as ABC's answer to
Arthur Godfrey. When she was
moved out of the Monday night
spot opposite Talent Scouts" it
was only to be set up against
Godfrey again on Wednesday
nights.
Now Miss Barrie is being moved
again. Her last Wednesday night
show will be done this week and
she will move to Thursday nights
on December %. She will have
escaped Godfrey, but her Thurs
day-at-9 niche will place her
opposite another CHS comedy fell
low, Ed Wynn.
There is one ray Of hope for
the talented and gracious Miss
Barrie. There is talk of moving
Wynn, who gets a new sponsor in
January, to Saturday nights. If
Miss Barrie is moved again then,
and installed opposite Studio
One" say, ABC is going to hear
from us. Somebody's going to
have to stop all this pushing Wen
