workers would get an annual

Department figures showed that
the big shift would come be-

particular concern over the
changing wage picture.
In fact, North Cardinals for
ward-looking Gov. Luther H
Hodges, says the increase, esti-
mated at $50 million annually In
his State, will help all our
people and improve our economic
climate" Further. the Governor,
q former Marshall Field execu-
tive, is hopeful that the Federal
prod will serve as q powerful
lever in obtaining o minimum
wage in the State itself--a re-
form that was rejected by the
Legislature only this year.
Nor win anyone in authority
In either North or South Caro-
lima admit fears that the new
minimum, which is expected to
be reflected in increases higher
UP the pay scale, will cause any
slackening in the industrial
growth of this largely nom
unionized region. Critics shave
contended that that growth
stems in part from wages lower
than in other sections of the
country.

Not everybody, of course. is

going to have to raise its scale

Dear Miss Ball:
Ted is II, in the proper grade,
but rather dull: He is Just the op-
ytosite of his brother. He admires
him, SO we. try to use Mat as an
incentive for Ted. Instead, he
seems to do worse in school and
every where. Often he trips or
hits other children, or pulls the
girls hair. He doesn't have any
friends, but will help his mother
at home frequently. . This isn't
normal for boy. He can really be
exasperating at times. We're con-
sidering sending him away, but
don't know of just the proper
place. Could you help us?
OTIS F., Philadelphia.
Dear Otis:
Have you explored all poSsibili-
ties to help the boy at home? Send
'ing child away is such a final
step, and it frequently does not
solve the problem. Are you sure
you understand the boy and that
he understands you? Possibly the
advice of a professional counselor
will help you all.
1t could be that you cause re-
sentiment in Ted when you COM
pare him with his brother. If he
dosen't have the ability to reach
his brothers standards, you cause
him much anxiety and loss of sta
tus in the home. For this reason,
he picks on other children or
causes disturbances in his class.
These things gain attention for
him.
Ted is an individual. Let him
know you approve of him as a per-
son, and praise him when he per-
forms task at the peak of his
ability. You, as parents, must be
patient with him and you must de-
termine what it is you expect of
him.
Sending Ted away would be con-
firming Ted'S belief that you do
