marks of two distinguished speakers from Washington
DC. during the Third Annual Navajo Youth Confer
ence held at Chinle on March 21, 22, and 23 Com
miss oner of Indian Affairs Philleo Nash and Leon
Scherter, Senior Training officer of the Peace Corps
stressed the 'art of communication as being funda-
mental in understanding and working effectively with
other people.
Neither spoke from prepared texts and it
SEighly improbable that either of these highly e1per
fenced and respected government officials we're aware
OF the others approach to the topic Nash spoke from
the viewpoint of the Bureau of Indian Affairs in

approached his theme the basis of the Peace Corps
philosophy which has emerged from experiences while
working with underdeveloped foreign nationals. Nash
spoke to the group Thursday night and Schertler,
not arriving in Chinle until Friday, the CUES
speaker at the banquet on Friday night
Yet, both of these men, each unaware of the
others feeling of the Importance of communication,
stressed the fundamental need for adequate commun
cation and under standing

chance of the wrong word phrase convey an
entirely different meaning from that intended by the
speaker or writer, and word which has meaning
for the individual using it may have wide variance of

Considering this, it is not at all surprising that
the problems are vastly multiplied and complca

The Labor Department sur
vey covered nearly $1,000 nom
supervisory workers in retail
stores, restaurants, real estate
firms and In selected service
industries. such as hotels, laun-
dries, auto shops, theaters and
hospitals.
These industries were Sc
lected because they generally
are not covered by Federal
minimum wage laws, which
apply to workers in interstate
commerce. The Federal wage
minimum is $1.15 but is due to
be increased to $1.25 within a
year.
Averages Below Minimum
Surveyors found last sum-
mer that 1888 employees of
eating and drinking places
earned an average Of $1.09 all
hour. Some 297 car waxers and
washers were paid an average
1.02. Automobile parkers were
also below the Morse minimum
with average pay of $1.l9 for
l,045 employees.
One analysis listed the per-
centage wage increase de-
manded by the Morse proposal,
as well as the number of es-
adjustments and employees due
to raise wages by that percent
age.
In 9l9 eating places with
1888 employees, the average
weekly wage would be in
creased rs percent by the
Morse reform.
Other fields would raise
wages under the bill like this:
auto service, % establishments
and 297 employees, by 80 per
cent; auto parkers, 80 firms and
1,043 employees, by 10 per
cent; theaters, Al firms and
500 employees, by is per cent,
and real estate operators, except
developers, 1,424 firms and
8,408 employees, by 10 per cent.
Almost all workers who made
less than SIPS an hour last
summer worked for tips as well
as for salaries. The labor study
was of salaries alone.
