From The GROCETERIA BAKERY: Rain or Shine . . . ... v$lf . . . . . RUw f f . i rJf ran '" PORTER DISPLAYS 'MATERIAL' - The State Department, in a letter to Rep Charles O. Porter (D-Ore.) confirmed that a New York City merchant has shipped American flags to Haiti for use as dress goods, curtain material and scrub rags. The 48-star and 40-star emblems presumably are from surplus stock and the State Department is considering "what meas ures can be taken to halt further export of flags for Inap propriate purposes." Rep. Porter is shown holding pieces cut off a bolt of flag material which a friend sent him from Haiti and which is being used for items other than flags. (UPI Telephoto) Demos Ready to Cut Demand for Support For Minimum Wage Washington - (DPI) - Senate Democrats appear willing to whittle down their demands to gain wider support for passage of a major item In the party' election-year leg islative program-an increase In the federal minimum wage. The Senate Labor commit tee held the key to action this week, Chairman Lister Hill (D Ala.) has called a closed-door session for Tuesday to put into final shape a bill by Sen. John F. Kennedy (D-Mass.) to raise the minimum from $1 to $1.25 an hour and extend coverage to an additional 10,700,000 workers. Exhaustive senate public hearings already have been held. The House completed nine weeks of Its own hear ings on minimum wage last Thursday. Sessions In Senate The Senate committee, well ahead of the House, held two executive sessions earlier this year to finish work on the bill, but since has marked time while the bill's sponsor, a presidential candidate, has been electioneering. The bill was vigorously op posed by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and other in dustry groups who argue a higher floor on wages would bring inflationary price in creases and unemployment in marginal industries. Organized labor has en thusiastically endorsed the proposal, contending a hike is long overdue. The fight in the 16-man senate committee was expect ed to pit the majority of pro labor Democrats and a few Republicans against a smaller opposition group led by Sen ate GOP Leader Everett M. Dirksen (III.) and Barry Gold waler (R-Ariz.) The outcome may be a com promise measure sharply cut ting back the number of new workers to be brought under federal minimum wage laws, but retaining the hourly wage increase to $1.25. The sub-commiltee-approv-ed bill pending before the full committee calls for a stepup from the present $1 to $1.15 the first year and then to $1.25 an hour thereafter. Real Opposition There Is not too much ob jection to (his provision, but the real opposition comes in extending coverage to new employees. Kennedy forces already have indicated they would ac cept a bill with something around 7 million newly cov ered workers, instead of the broader subcommittee meas ure of 10,700,000 Kennedy spokesmen have said the cutback probably would be made in coverage of retail and retail-service in dustries. This includes depart ment, variety and large food chain stores not now subject to federal minimum wage standards To eliminate the furor over putting so-called "Mom and Dad" grocery stores under the act, it has been suggested the bill apply only to retailers With gross annual tales of anore than $1 million. Approval of such an amend ment in committee would trim more than 3 million newly covered workers from the present version of the subcommittee bl,l, i listed an Increase in the min imum wage as one of six ma jor issues remaining for this congress to clear before the July adjournment for the na tional political conventions. With more than two-thirds of the session already passed, leaders have expressed an anxiety to speed up the time table and get the minimum wage issue cleared before tackling more controversial matters such as medical aid to the aged and foreign aid ap propriations. Congress under late Presi ident Franklin D. Roosevelt first fixed a 25-cent-an-hour minimum federal wage in 193B with passage of the Fair Labor Standards Act. It was raised first to 40 cents an hour and then to 75 cents and finally to $1 in 1055. Australia Judge Orders Cannibals To Pay With Lives Wewak, New Guinea -(UPD- An Australian Supreme Court Justice looked down at the 18 Cannibals dozing or idly scratching themselves before him and sentenced them all to dca,th for Including three menu at a feast last year. None seemed to care, even when Justice Mnnn (no first name available) said he was sentencing them according to law, but hoped they would be spared and sent to jail where they might be taught to change their diet and their customs. Soundly Lectured The judge soundly lectured the Cannibals. "Some people eat people because they are pigs who don't care what they eat," he said. "Man should be some thing better than a pig." Those of the defendants who were awake, scratched at what itched and stared calmly at him. His words did not awaken those asleep on the floor. The 16 natives had spent most of their week-long trial sleeping. It was In Wewak that a Jap anese army holed up in 1 943 44 and eventually was deci mated by air attack and by the U.S. 2nd Infantry (Red Arrow) Division on the banks of the Driniumor river.

As unfolded in court testi mony, those brought to We wak for trial had raided the Ruwanna hamlet, killing three Suwanna warriors. Their victims were con signed to the Cannibal cook pot.
