Oct. M iJP) President Truman signed legisla tion today raising the minimum wag from 40 to 14 rents an nour and railed It "a major victory" for his aoministiation. In a statement Truman ex pressed "regret" that the legisla tion exempts some workers who i previously nad been covered by the fair labor standards law. He added : "But the improvement mad by the new law will go lar towara achieving our basic purpo ol as suring minimum laoor standards necessary lor health, elflciency and general well-being ot workers. "The enactment of the talr labor standards amendments ol 194$ is a major victory in our fight to pro mot the general wellar of the people of th United States New 'Hour' The new pay '"floor" lor workers In Interstate commerce becomes el fective in $0 days. Congress mem bers have estimated the SS-cenl-an-hour Increase in the minimum rate will hike the pay ol up to 1.S00. .00 wn.kers now getting less thsn 75 rents an hour. They figure the Increase will raist the wane bill ol employers around $300 000.000 a year. Truman asked congress not only to raise minimum par to 7S rents an nour. but to broaden coverage of the present law. Congress met the president's re quest for a 75-cent minimum, but it narrowed the law s coversge in stesd of broadening It. At present about 33 600 000 work ers are protected by the statute. The house voted to exclude about 1.006.000 of these, and the senate only about 300.000 The compromise worked out puis the total number excluded some where between th house and sen ate figures.
