legislation giving approximately
22.600,000 workers a guaranteed
minimum wage of IS cents ar
hour and hailed it as "a major
victory in our fight to promote
the general welfare of the people
of the United States"
The measure the President ap-
proved amends the 11-year-old
wage-hour law applicable to work.
ers in interstate commerce whose
statutory basic wage hitherto has
been 40 cents an hour.
Actually, Congress members es-
innate that the 35-cent increase
will raise the pay of about 1,5O0,-
900 workers getting less than rs
cents an hour and increase the
wage bill of employers about $780,
100000 annually. Mr.. Truman
estimated the 100000 workers
will get wage boosts of S to Is
cents an hour.
While praising the amended law
as providing constructive steps
of great Importance in developing
a Federal Fair Labors Standards
Act" the President expressed re-
gret that the new legislation
"exempts from its provisions some
workers who have been covered
heretofore and that it fails to ex-
tend coverage to many other
groups Of workers who need its
protection"
He added. however. that the
improvements made by the new
act will 60 far toward achieving
our basic purpose of assuring
minimum labor standards neces-
sary for health, efficiency and
general well-being of workers"
Long Battle Waged.
The administration long has
urged an increase in the minimum
wage and extension of its cover
age. The issue was one of the
principal points on which Presi-
dent Truman campaigned a year
ago.
In drafting the law, some new
groups were brought in, but others
were cut out, the House voting to
exclude about ZOOS, 900 and the
Senate about 100000.
An adjustment was made in
conference. but the Office of Wage
Hour Administrator William r.
McComb said a court test will be
required to determine what the
net loss in coverage will be. An
off-hand figure puts it at about
200. 900.
The reason for the uncertainty
is the changed wording of the law
which hitherto has applied to en-
ployes necessary" to production
The new law affects those "di-
rectly essential" to production.
In his statement signing the
measure, Mr.. Truman pointed out
it's salient features and said new
restrictions on child labor Should
result in the virtual elimination
of the evil"
He also said it would "encour-
age the development of plans for
employment on an annual basis
through collective bargaining by
providing greater f1exibility in the
overtime provisions. He added
These plans assure stability o1
income for wage earners and sta
bility of operations for employers.
