Cites Urgent Need Os More Scientists Competition Keen • To Hire Scientists TERRE HAUTE. Ind. (INS) — The college alumni who put the pressure on his alma mater for production of brawn that would win football games, soon may be yelling for brainpower instead. That is the way Dr. Byrqn T. Shaw, gdminstrator of the United States agricultural research service. sees it. Dr. Shaw, tri an address Tuesday night at the fourth annual research conference at the Ptixer agricultural research and development center, near Terre Haute, said: “Along with a phenomenal growth in industry . . .has come competition of a unique kind. Competition not for markets though this is certainly vigorous but for brainpower. “The competition for scientists to develop new ideas for industry and for technically trained aides to help put these ideas into production is one of the remarkable signs of our itmes.”

The nation's agricultural research chief itemiwed what ha called a trend of the times on the part ot major industries to carry out widespread reaarch, to share findings with the rest of industry, and to finance search for pure knowledge. He said the antibiotics streptomycin. pepicillin and .vitamin 812 all are a product of this threeway approach.” Dr. Shaw urged that the present expenditure for educational purposes, which was 8.7 billion or slightly more than four per cent of national income at !a«t count, be greatly Increased. He warned: “There’s a desparate need for teachers who can recognixe science talents soon after the students get to high school Unless the high school student takes the initial courses in mathematics and science, he isn’t likely to decide on a scientific career when he gets to college. .' . One of the chief bottlenecks in our efforts to increase scientific manpower right now is the shortage of teachers of high school sconce and mathematics.” He went on to say that increased salaries also will be required at the college level as well as in high school to meet the problem of more scientists for the future. Dr. Shaw opined: “If we paid college professors what they are worth to the nation s2f>,ooo annuallly would be a small salary.” John E. McKean, president of the host company, which has a 700acre research center southwest of Terre Haute, told the conference that "social, economic and political considerations far outside the realm <>f laboratory science” are involved in bringing American agriculture Jnto economic balance. He said: “There are many who believe that the problems of mounting surpluses and dwindling farm income are self-adjusting for population trends indicate that by 1957 farmer will have to feed 35 million ftiore Americans.” McKeen said his company plans to spend another |7 million on research this year, matching the 1956 expenditure. T>r. w. M. .Gleeson, of Purdue University, another speaker, reported on research at the university showing that feeding antibiot-: ica to beef cattle reduced disease, improved feed efficiency, and produced higher grade carcasses. prison, of the South Dakota state college of agriculture, al reported that antibiotics are ’'vSlpable Additions to laying rations" of hens.

Remind Employers On Teenage Workers May Be Subject To Child*Labor Laws INDIANAPOLIS. — As schools elose for the summer and thousands of youngsters seek vacation Jobs, Indiana employers were reminded today that the employment of teenagers may be subject to the child-labor provisions of the fair tabor standards act—the federal wage-hour law — if they work in establishments producing goods or shipping ’ merchandise in interetate commerce. Thomas O’Malley, regional director of the U. S. labor department’s wage and hour division, emphasized that minors must be at least 16-years of age to work in general occupations, and at least 18 for employment in 12 hazardous occupations, such as motor vehicle driver or helper, elevator operator, or as operators of power-driven woodworking, metal forming, paper cutting and bakery machines. The child-tabor provisions of the law- permit the employment of 14 and 15-year-old youngsters in nonmanufacturing Jobs, such as in office, clerical, or sales work, but their employment is limited to 8 hours a day and 40 hours a week, when schools are closed, and 3 hours a day or 18 hours a week when schools are in session. However, they may not work before 7 a.m. or after 7 p.m. During schoolvacations, children of any age may work on farm Jobs. O’Malley urged employers to obtain employment or age certificates for all minors under 18, and for those 18 and 19, in hazardous Jobs, and to keep them on file for their own protection against violations of federal and state childlabor laws. In Indiana, such certificates may be obtained from local school superintendent® or high school principals, upon request. For more information the child-labor, minimum wage and overtime pay requirements of federal tabor taws, O’Malley advised employers to contact the U. S. department of labor’s wage-hour offices at room 423—federal building—lndianapolis or Room 215— 102 East Colfax Street — South Bend. Annapolis — The U.
