High U.S. officials predicted the. ecomimic - and diplomatic restrictions would be approved, despite the last-minute political reservations of some Latin American nations. Officials said the main concern was passing the three resolutions by the greatest (ossible majority. They said a side margin of approval was necessary to demonstrate a united hemispheric front against Fidel Castro's regime, Since Venezuela requested the sanctions as punishment for Cuban aggression and thus is ineligible to vote, 13 favorable ballots would provide the necessary t wo-thirds majority. The sanctions would be invoked under terms of the Ihter-Ameri-can Mutual Defense Pact. The three resolutions before the OAS call for: —A condemnation of the Castro regi in e for aggression against Venezuela, a mandatory, collective trade end shipping embargo of 'he island; and recommendations that all OAS members break diplomatic and airline connection'; with Cuba. - An interpretation of subversion as a form of armed aggression under terms of the Ilio treaty. —A collective recommendation that all ither free world nations co-operate m the trade and shipping embargo.

New Fear Os \ Violence In : Cyprus Today NICOSIA, Cyprus (UPI) — a New fears of possible major violence swejrt Cyprus today because of the clandestine build- ' up of heavy military equipment ■ on the strife-torn island. ( Greek Cypriot partisans re- ' celved 36 truckloads of new ■ equipment under cover of pre--1 dawn darkness Monday from ' Ihree mysterious ships lying at anchor off the southern port of ’ Limassol. The ships, reported flying Norwegian flags, were not registered with the usual shipping agencies. They unloaded their cargo to smaller vessles which landed them at Limassol where packing cases and crates were transferred to trucks and carted to unknown destinations inland in armed convoys. United Nations officials were prevented from following. But Turkish Cypriot dockworkers were cleared frorh the landing area prior to the unloading op--1 oration, and U.N. officials said ! they believed the crates con--1 talned arms destined for Greek Cypriot supply depots. One of the crates was big enough to contain artillery, ob--1 servers said. A UN. official said a crane at dockside was "heavy enough for unloading tanks.’’ The Greek and Cypriot communities of Cyprus have been feuding for years. Violence erupted last Christmas, and Monday’s clandestine supply landing had been preceded by reports of , Turkish Cypriot arms buildups. The House approved the full authorization asked by Johnson, but agreed to only $8.2 billion In actual appropriations. Other congressional news Coins: Director of the Mint Eva Adams urged congressional passage of a bill which would allow the mint to continue Indefinitely the 1964 date on all coins to discourage hoarding and. ease the current coin shortage. Baker: The Senate opened debate on financial disclosure proposals arising from the Robert G. Baker case. Sen. Mike Mansfield said he hoped debate could be limited. However, Senate GOP leader Everett M. Dirksen, 111., said the resolution 1 would be defeated “if 1 can help It." Contracts: The House armed services special investigations subcommittee opened an inquiry into the "reasonableness" of costs charged the government by defense plants to keep un the morale of their employes. The General Accounting Office (GAO) has had Its auditors checking into such Incidents as the company party which cost the taxpayers sever- ! al thousand dollars for liquor ! and beer. ( Potatoes: The Sehate was to go to work on a bill to ban fu- ~ tures trading in potatoes. The «s chief effect of the ban would 5 fall on the New York Mercan--2 tile Exchange, principally on a trading, in futures contracts on a potatoes grown in Maine. 5 Maine producers favor the ban, § saying that It would bring«a c more stable tone to the cash ' potato markets.

Goldwater In Resumption Os Senate Duties WASHINGTON (UPI) — GOP presidential candidate Barry Goldwater resumed his duties a senator today with assurances from party leaders of a greater policy - making voice in Republican congressional councils. Goldwater returned to Washington Monday night from the San Francisco National Convention where he easily won nomination. He stopped off en route at his Phoenix, Ariz., home for a short rest. Senate Republican Leader Everett M. Dirksen, 111., told newsmen that Goldwater would be afforded more say in GOP councils in the weeks ahead. The procedures may be discussed at a meeting of the Senate Republican Policy Committee today. During a brief stopover in Chicago Monday, Goldwater told newsmen he would welcome a "summit conference" with President Johnson aimed at keeping racial issues out of the forthcoming campaign. "I would welcome a chance to sit down with the President and go over and discuss this particular issue,” Goldwater said. "I’m not going to inject this issue, and I don’t think he is. But I’m not naive enough to think that someone isn’t.” Presidential Press Secretary George E. Reedy, asked about the possibility of such a conference, said that while no proposal had been made directly to the White House it seemed likely that Johnson would give it consideration. “Certainly, as a man who has asked for observance of the civil rights law and who has signed the lftw and who is implementing the law, the President would not do anything to incite or inflame tensions," Reedy said. Minimum Wage Bill Planned In Indiana INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — A sta'e governmental study committee plans to recommend a minimum wage bill to its parent commission at a meeting July 30. The Protective Labor Legislation Committee's draft of toe bill was reviewed Monday in preparation for its presentation to the Governor's Commission on the Status of Women. Whether or not the proposed bill ever gets before the 1965 Legislator may depend on what reception it gets at the commission meeting. “ The stotty committee was created by the commission and is headed by State Sen. Martha Burnett, R-Indianapolis, and State Rep. Elsie Earning, DEvansville. Mrs. Earning explained that since toe "entire committee was not present at the meeting there is a chance that both a majoriy and minority report may be brought before the commission. The bill, as it stood after a day-long revision Monday, calls for a minimum hourly wage of $1 for retail establishments, hotels, motels, restaurants and laundries. Higher mifiimums, ranging from $1.15 to $1.25 are contemplated for other occupations. Mrs. Barntng said the decision of the group to recommend a minimum wage measure affecting both sexes came about

after studies indicated such legislation would be the best way to aid large groups of women in occupations lacking any such protection now. The committee's bill is an adaptation of a New York minimum wage law and calls for creation of a wage and hour board within the Indiana Department of Labor. Such a board would have power to conduct public hearings and make recommenda-* tions to the labor commissioner, who may, or may not issue an order. Such orders would be subject to aopcal to the courts. The bill also calls for establishment of a Department of Wages and Hours within the Labor Department, headed by a director to be named by the governor. Certain areas of work, including domestics, outside salesmen, members of religious orders and others would not be covered by the provisions. Mrs. Barning explained that such legislation is needed to protect many occupations not covered by federal wage regulations. "There are persons employed in some occupations at wages insufficient to provide adequate maintenance for themselves and their families,’’ the statement of policy accompanying the draft of the bill said. “It is the intent of this law to try to provide wages that will make every worker a consumer by attempting to raise the pucrhasing power of the citizenry."

Rural Co-Ops Asked To War On Poverty By Orville L. Freeman .*, Secretary of Agriculture
One-half the poverty in America can be found where only onethird of our citizens live. In 1963, more than one-third of all U.S. rural families had net
incomes below S3OOO. This compares with one in seven among our urban population. Poverty is less visible in rural America, though it is generally more pervasive and more extensive than in our large urban centers. But we have in the United States a powerful force that can help our poorer rural families lift the burden of poverty: the rural cooperatives. Cooperatives have often met the needs of rural America. The fuel cooperatives of the 1920’s were a direct response to the need for low-cost fuel oil. The demand for fertilizer at

the lowest possible cost led to ~ the cooperatively owned fertilizer plants ot the 1940’i and 30'*. Best known of all are the rural electrification cooperatives. They are an example of the way cooperatives rise to a challenge no one else is willing to accept. Today, they are pioneering the spread of electricity in South America and are making industrial development possible in rural areas everywhere. Perhaps most important, the cooperatives are providing leadership in the development of a more diverse rural economy. This'leadership can be put to use in the War on Poverty in two important ways. First, groups of farmers, seeking extra sources of income, could form recreation cooperatives with loans from the Department of Agriculture. These recreation cooperatives would serve three important functions. They would provide : new outdoor recreation space for our burgeoning population. Second, they would put surplus farm land to more beneficial use. Finally, using the land for recreation purposes, would take it ■ off the Federal agriculture sub- 1 sidy rolls, thereby saving the 1 taxpayer money. Similarly, cooperatives for ; grazing, feeding, or marketing of livestock could be developed < with Agriculture Department loans. Or groups of farmers could convert cropland in low

income areas into industrial sites and, with the help of Area Redevelopment loans, modernize the community water and sewage services to encourage new industry. Second, cooperatives can provide the kind of top-flight leadership needed if we are to eliminate poverty in rural America. In the past, cooperatives have had to be among the best run businesses in the nation to survive. In business management, cooperatives have had to be ahead and have had to keep ahead of everyone else in the field. This striving for excellence can be effectively put to work in War on Poverty. For example, effective management is the kind of management that will take advantage of technical innovations and new research discoveries. This was demonstrated recently in the State of Washington where a cooperative built a $760,000 plant to produce a new apple juice concentrate developed by the Agriculture Department. This plant will provide a market for 30,000 tons of apples • year and will create an additional 100 new jobs in the community. By recognizing opportunity and doing something about it, the rural cooperatives have demonstrated leadership in rural America. It is essential this leadership join President Johnson in the War on Poverty.
