Like Weeds In
The Spring

There are certain hardy politi-
cal perennials which appear as
surely and as regularly as the
weeds in the spring.
The proposal to extend the cov-
erge of the federal wage-hour law,
as we'll as the proposal to increase
the legal minimum wage, is one
of these. 1t is brought forward in
every Congressional session, and
the next will be no exception.
The exempt workers-and they
been exempt ever since the law
came into being-are in certain
local service industries, of which
retailing is the most important. 1t
is significant that a highly organ
lied effort was made to extend
coverage to them during the last
Congressional session-and that.
after extensive deliberation, the
plan was shelved. And one reason
for that, according to observers,
was strong tide of grassroots
opposition.
This opposition, to say the ohvi-
Gus, didn't arise because people are
opposed to higher wages for any,
one. 1t did arise for a number of
sound reasons. One is that the pro-
'posal would set off a whole new
wave of wage increases which
means a whole new wave of infla-
ton. Another is that if we need
legislation affecting local business
es, which must compete at the
local level even if they are part of
national chains, it should be applied
by state and local action. A third
is that retailing, like other ser
vice trades, offers unusual employ
ment opportunities for unskilled
marginal, teen-age, part-time and
other workers whose value to the
employer is severely limited. An
arbitrarily high wage would cause
wide unemployment among these
groups And a fourth is that no
more federal fingers are wanted in
local affairs.
The last Congress, like its pre-
decessors, set sound precedent in
this.
