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.

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.
The litter of war still re
mains In the Jungle, rotted
and overgrown.
Cannibals Not Changed
But this passing of civili
zation through the dense for
ests had not changed th Can
nibals. 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. When the raiders left they
kidnaped eight Suwanna
women.
Judge Mann held this not
to be the heinous crime It
would b in tha Western
world.
