Council Says
• I think the amendments to
the Fair Labor Standards Act,
which went into effect Feb. 1,
represent the greatest single vic-
tory in the current war against
poverty, Darrell Sparks, presi-
dent of the Mason County La-
bar Council said in a statement
this week. They extend the pro-
tection of federal law to more
than eight million additional
workers and another nllion
will receive federal legal pro-
tection on Feb. 1, 1968. They
raise the minimum wage, in
steps to $1.60 an hour.
Feb. 1, 3.8 vnillion workers
who were previously covered by
the $1.40 an hour. Of the newly
the $1.40 an hour got an increase.
Of the newly protected work-
ers, another one million per-
sons received wage increases to
bring them at a $1 an hour
wage. These increases for near-
ly five million of America's
lowest-wage workers will add up
to approximately $1 billion of
buying power in the next twelve
months.
"This great forward step, how-
ever. requires effective enforce-
men|.
"Unfortunately, many low-
wage workers are underpaid
millions of dollars each year by
unscrupulous employers who
flout the law. Last year some
430,000 workers were underpaid
a total of $90 million and merely
one-third of these underpay-
ment have been recovered, yet
these figures include only those
employers whose violations of
the Fair Labor Standards Act
were discovered. It is estimated
that only one-hal/ of actual vio-
lations have been uncovered.
"The new improvements in
the law expand the volutme of
potential chiselling and enor-
mously enlarge the enforcement
task. While the number of pro-
tected workers is increased by
almost 30 per cent, the number
of covered establishments is
raised by nearly 60 percent.
About 700,000 establishments, in-
cluding 1 a u n d r i e s, hospitals,
schools, construction firms,
nmderate sized retail stores,
restaurants, hotels and large
farms, come under FLSA cover-
age for the first time, in addi-
tion to the 1.2 million establish-
ments previously covered by the
law.
"A substantial increase in the
number of wage-hour investiga-
tors is essential. The President's
Budget Message to the Congress
# r .... ' #cbgniiied this and repuest-
ed some additional enforcement
funds, a necessary first step in
translating the promise of the
new minimum wage legislation
into reality."

• The Washington State De-
partment of Fisheries is. (tiscon-
tinuing the issuance of tide ALWAYS FIRST QUALITY
tables in connection with its
pamphlet containing razor clam

The Department said that,
while it desired only to render
a service to the Public by sup-
plying tide information, it was
learned that such action was in
direct competition with private
concerns which publish tide
tables.
"These businesses have invest-
ments which should not be jeop-
ardized by competition from
the State", said Fisheries Di-
rector Thor C. Tollefson. "For /.'', C_),
