New BeIuir
School Need
Tackled

Prince Georges County school,
men yesterday came to grips
with William J. Levitt's plan to
erect and sell $500 homes at
Belair, and came away a little
haggard from the experience.
While the county attorney,
the school board counsel, and a
representative OF the Levitt &
Sons firm tried to iron out
plans to get one 20-room ele-
mentary school built at the
development by next fall, school
system staff members tried to
find a way out Of immediate
problems.
The Belair development will
start opening five homes a day
for occupancy starting this
week." school planner Thomas
Gwynn. jr.. said, land we have
to find classroom space for the
children"
The school board yesterday
estimated that about 400 ele-
mentary school pupils will be
living in the development by
the end of the year. Based on
this estimate. they made plans
to transport 108 of them to
school at Bowie, about four
miles away: 1870 to Bladensburg.
abous 8 miles, and rs to Sea-
brook, about four miles distant.
That will help us out until
January" Mr.. Gwynn said, but
after that. nobody knows! All I
can say is that we're going to
have problems"
Meanwhile County Attorney
Robert B. Matthias and a rep
resentative of the Levitt firm
tried to figure out ways OF get
ting a new elementary school
operating at the development
by next year. Mr.. Levitt had
offered to finance construction
Of the school, II the county
would repay him once 400 stu
dents were ready for class.
The discussions yesterday
centered around the qquestion
Of when the Levitt firm wanted
to be repaid.
Mr.. Matthias suggested that
another solution be found or
that Mr.. Levitt agree to pay
interests costs on the money.
The county attorney is expected
to make a firm recommended
ton to the commissioners on
Friday.

WITH THYROID IN MIND
Radioactive Iodine Tested

With your thyroid in mind,
health officials have added e
radioactive iodine survey, GEN.
tered in Rockville, Md, to
studies Of how Russian atomic
tests are affecting Americas
air and food.
The thyroid gland in your
neck regulates growth and pep
with a substance it refines
called thyroxine. a compound
Of iodine. To make this sub
stance, the thyroid collects the
iodine in food.
If the food happens to have
been contaminated by radio
active iodine from fallout, the
body uses that. The body can
not discriminate because radio
active and ordinary iodine are
chemically identical.
Two Networks
To find out how much radio
active iodine the new Russian
atomic tests have scattered
around to fall on food. the Pub
lie Health Service has set up
two iodine networks.
The most critical of the two
monitors radioactive iodine in
food, specifically the most uni
versally used and eaSy-to-han-
die food, milk. If more atomic
tests-or atomic war-brought
radioactive iodine levels to a
point officials believed danger
out, the monitoring network
would permit officials to take
steps to prevent the food from
reaching your table.
This pilot iodine network
consists of Is stations among
the nearly 300 stations through
which PHS monitors for radio
active cesium and strontium in
milk and water.

its radioactivity in eight days.

LEGISLATIVE RECORD. ..
Continued From Yesterday.
THE PRESIDENTS: The trouble is, Senator, that the
only time that the laborers-or the people in the islands
have an opportunity to see who their friends are, is at
election time.
Mr.. LAWAETz: Mr.. President, | disagree most
strongly with that statement. The people OF my island
know me. They do not have to Wait to see me on election
day or during election time. They see me every day OF the
year.
PRESIDENT: / did not say that my remarks ap-
piled to YOU. Senator. / am just saying that we can't chain
e laborers in our community to low minimum wages.
We also have the responsibility OF providing Tor the labor
ing people.
And this strong argument that is being made here to
the effect that this wage will only apply to alien labor is
not SC. / know quite a lot of native people who, although
they may not be engaged in the sugarcane industry, are
nevertheless also classified as agricultural workers, ana,
the entire question Of a basic minimum wage for those peo-
pie does not necessarily apply to alien laborers only.
MR. Mr.. President, I did not say any
thing like that at all!
said I don't care from which race they come, or who
they are. We treat all our people alike. / did not mention
anything about alien labor ...
THE PRESIDENT: | am not making these state
ments with reference to your remarks.
Mr.. LAWAETZ: Or, see!
THE PRESIDENT: am making a statement in re-
buttal to an assertion which was generally made on the
Floor of the Legislature.
What / am saying is that we have the responsibility,
too Of providing some basic minimum; whether it pro-
tects alien labor or native labor.
And I would also like to make this observation. That
throughout the Wage Hearings Tin every particular case)
there wasn't a single person who testified that he was pay
ing the basic minimum of forty five cents. They ali said
that they were paying more. And if fifty cents is the re-
cognized basic minimum in agriculture-since they them
selves said that they were paying fifty cents cannot see
any good reason for believing that legislation OF this type
would harm them, unless they were not telling the truth.
But, assuming that they are responsible people, and
in these hearings they testified truthfully-that they were
paving fifty cents rninimum-Ise no reason Why they
should have any objections to the establishment OF q basic
minimum wage Of fifty cents an hour, because in all OF
these hearing that were held, the farmers testified that
they were paying fifty cents an hour.
MR.. DE LUGO. Mr.. President.
mrTI rDpECInFNIT.F Conotor do T ,I0n
, 1961-05-11

Mr.. OTTLEY: Mr.. Chairman, just one question.
PRESIDENT: Senator Ottley.
Mr.. T Mr.. Chairman, all / want to say on
this question is this.
am a member Of the Wage Board that recommended
wages for Agriculture, Construction and some other In
dustries. / should say that nobody appeared in Saint Tho
las when the agricultural industry was under study. But
n Saint Croix we found Mr.. Stacy Lloyd appearing, Mr..
Willie Johanson, Mr.. Nelthropp q don't recall his first
name) and all three Of them admitted that they were pay
ing fifty cents an hour. That, in addition to that, they were
providing houses; they were providing a space Tor the peo-
pie imported to plant; they were giving them a couple
bottles Of milk every day, and things of that sort; and, that
if they had to figure out their wages, twould be sixty or
seventy five cents an hour.
And the argument that is being used by Stacy Lloyd,
in particular, was that even though he was paying fifty
cents, or perhaps more than fifty cents, if the wage rate
was raised from forty cents to f~ortyfive to fifty cents,
that the worker would be coming around-even though
he's getting fifty FIVE or sixty cents looking for that five
or ten cents additional. And Wefelt that that we couldn't
see how that was possible because as long as the minimum
wage is fixed by law at fifty cents an hour or forty five
cents, whatever the minimum was, the laborer has no legal
right to more. And he also said this.
That the agricultural man, the manager, the producer,
has to pay the same type of wage to his worker on the farm
as the construction man or the other man who was COM
peting in the field for that laborer. That it didn't make any
difference what the minimum wage was; that II the man
wanted somebody to work for him he will have to pay
exactly that that guy would get from somebody else other
wise he wouldn't hold him long.
But, nevertheless, it was the first time the Board was
dealing with this situation, and the board, being very con-
servative-and I don't agree that the board IS completely
objective and completely disinterested because object to
one or two Of the so-called disinterested members because
this committee is supposedly have two from Business, two
from Labor and two from the Public. But you have two
from Business-yes! Gordon Skeoch and Auguste Rlmpel,
two wellrespected and two competent representatives OF
businessD You have two representatives of labor, Mr..
Pedro and myself. But for the public you should have two
disinterested persons. But the Chairman OF the
Board, MI. Benjamin, and I think he tries to be fair but
he is Treasurer of the Chamber of Commerce-another
business representative, in my. view. So, | mean, | don't
think that we should say exactly that the Board is strictly
you know because, Mr.. Rimpel, Mr.. Skeoeh and
Mr.. BENJAMIN are Chamber of Commerce representatives.
So, / would say at this point, Mr.. Chairman, that we
cannot vote at this time to amend this bill-to reduce any
thing from fifty cents for agriculture, to ] orty-fve or any
thing else, otherwise we wouldn't be overriding the veto.

Here's One Fee Increase
Siockmen Aren't Bucking

When HB 118 to increase fees paid
by stockmen 100 per cent to boost
the salary of the grass commissioner
was under debate, Ted Schwinden Cd
Roosevelt) didn't resist the tempta-
ton to ask stoekmen if the 100 per
cent increase would cause livestock
people to go out of business.
Schwinden was in the forefront of
the battle to increase grazing fees
Glib 33), and stockmen dwelled at
great length ON the per cent of the
increase. They said the increase would
put them out of business.
Any increase in state grazing leases,
disgracefully low at the present time,
makes the percentage high.
