10. MINIMUM WAGE IN
CREASE AND EXPANDED
COVERAGE.
l urge the Congress to raise
the minimum wage immedi-
ately to S1.15 and to $1.25
within two years. This will
improve the incomes, level of
living, morale and efficiency
OF many Of our lowest paid
workers and provide incentives
fer their more productive util-
ization. This can actually in
crease productivity and hold
down unit costs, with no ad-
verse affects on our competi-
ton in world markets and our
balance Of payments. More
than four-fifths Of those COM
modities affected: by either ex-
port or import trends are pro-
duced by industries which
would not be significantly af-
fected by q moderate increase
In the minimum wage. The
proposed new coverage is basic
ally in retail trade and services.
which are not affected by
shifts in international trade.
Moreover, experience with pre-
vious minimum wage increases
indicates little effect on prices.
In the four years following
the 1856 increase in the min
imum wage the index of all
wholesale prices increased 76.6
per cent, whereas the prices
charged for commodities pro-
duced in low-wage industries
showed negligible change.
Coverage should be extended
to several million workers not
now covered. This will extend
the wage standard throughout
significant low.wage sectors of
the labor market. It will re-
quire the payment Of a min
imum starting. at $1.00 for the
workers newly included, and a
gradual Increase to the, gen.
eral $1.25 minimum.
: Together. these two principal
changes in the Fair .; Labor
Standards. Act will CO. far to
protect our lowest paid workers.
The proposed minimum rates
have been carefully set at levels
which viii benefit substantial
numbers Of underpaid workers,
but not so high as to prevent
ready adjustment to the new
standards.

Quoekery VS.. Constructive
Criticism

The American Medical Associa-
tion News, which is the newspaper
of American medicine, has some
thing worthwhile to say about what
IT calls Journalistic Quackery." !"
In its words: Because of the
public's increasing interest in
health and matters pertaining
thereto, the broad field of medi-
cine each year provides subject mat
ter for scores of books and hun
dreds of articles in nationally-cir-
culated magazines.
Most of this material is pains
takingly researched, factuaily and
effectively presented, and, conse-
quently provides a valuable COM
munication link between physici-
ans, scientists, research labora-
tories and the public. This mater
ial. Of course, is not always COM
plimentary to medicine, but when
criticism appears it often is well
founded and therefore serves a
useful purpose.
Occasionally, however, an arti-
Gle or book is published in which
the author obviously sets out to
discredit physicians hospitals.
pharmaceutical companies or
medicine in general, and apparen-
tly vowed at the outset not to let
facts interfere with his predeter-
mined purpose. These essays usu-
ally follow the same time-worn
pattern of carefully avoiding
many of the facts and making
broad, generalized attacks against
an organization or profession"
The News specifically cites sew
eral nationally published pieces
of writing of which this is true.
Facts are misinterpreted or warp
ed. Overstatement and exaggeration
become weapons. Some weakness,
real or alleged, is blown up out
of all proportion to its real signi-
ficance. And the great accom-
plishments Of medicine are over
looked or given a minimum or
attention.
Journalistic IQuackery" of this
order can be used to discredit
any enterprise, any profession
or, for that matter, any individual.
The defense against it is an in
formed public which can't be TAX
en- in.
