JULY 18. 19H2 PAGES 1 to 10 Morse Suggests Lowering Age For Working Children To Nine With Six Hours of Work a Day By YVONNE FRANKLIN Mail Tribune Washington Bureau Washington -(Special)- Sen. Wayne Morse has an answer to the many Oregon young sters who have lobbied him in protest against 1 e g i s 1 ation which restricts their summer time crop picking. S.1123 as it passed the Senate would allow children from 12 to 14 to travel only 25 miles to jobs, with their parents' permission. Morse suggested in a Senate speech last week that he Franklin would work to allow children. aged nine and older, to hand pick crops up to six hours a day. "Note that I specifically mention handwork," he said. "This would preclude the op eration of machinery which is the source of most acci dents. I also specify a six hour limit. This will prevent the fatigue problem which worries the medical men." "1 should think a distance of some 35 miles, but certain ly with a 50-mile maximum could be substituted for the 25-mile-radius limitations," he said. The bill in question is now in the House Rules Commit tee, with no word as to when it may come to the House for r liV'J PROGRAM REVEALED Secretary of Defense Robert Mc Namara is shown in Washington as he announced a tar admirers on their arrival.

It was designed to pre- i vent abuse of children of mi-1 grants who often work during as well as after school hours, i Many Letters Received i Morse said that he was lob bied by about 40 earnest j young people during a 4th of j July trip to Oregon. He also j received many letters from i youngsters protesting the bill, I as have most of the Oregon 1 delegation. In his speech, morse said ne felt the pur poses of the bill could be car ried out and still allow Ore gon's youngsters to work. "The answer," Morse said, "is to see to it that our laws on migratory labor are so drafted, supervised and en forced as to make certain that such children have proper food; that they have proper health protection; that they have proper housing condi tions." Morse remembered the pride of his three daughters when as youngsters they were allowed to earn money pick ing beans. He said that the experience had been good for them, as it was for the other Oregon youngsters who earn money to buy school supplies, clothing, to save for college; and to be responsible at an early age. Testmony by Doctors But he also included testi mony from several doctors who had studied migrant chil dren - those who do not spend just vacation-time but often full-time hoeing cotton and other heavy chores at too young an age. The testimony indicated that such young children become undersized and undernourished by spend ing energy on hard physical work which should be ex pended on physical growth. I According to other tcsti- I niony, migrant workers earn i no more than $1000 a year. This means that to supple ment the family income, the very young children are ! forced by necessity to work in the fields, more often than not missing school to do so. Local communities nnd stales usually do not require compulsory school attendance during the picking seasons, or if there is a law do not en force it because of the already overcrowded schools and negative feelings toward hav ing migrant children attend their schools. "We know," said Secretary of Labor Arthur Goldberg in his testimony, "that child la bor in agriculture docs not really solve the migrant fam ily's low income problem. In stead, the employment of chil dren has the long-range effect of depressing the general wage level, which further compli cates the income problem." Look at Future Needs "The proper goal," Gold berg continued, "is to look to the future needs of these chil dren and to help them avoid premature work in the fields. In that way, a large step will have been taken to give them the opportunity for a more worthwhile and productive adult working life." Morse said that it was his hope . . . "in conference to perfect the bill hi such a man ner as to retain the very I worthwhile safeguards to the health and safety of inrm children, while still not clos ing the door to useful employ ment by them." He staled that it was his intention to bring the matter to the Senate-House conferees should the bill pass the House this session and go to confer ence where differences in bills passed by the House and Sen ate are ironed out. S.1123 is bogged In the House Rules Committee, along with a number of other bills from the House Education and Labor Committee. Wily Chairman Howard Smith of Virginia is thought to be hold ing these bills as a bargain ing lever to work his will with conferees of the Senate House conference on higher j i education legislation, should their compromises on the bill not he to his liking.
