Mr. Rieve based his plea for higher minimum pay on the “inincome families, as’ reported- by cies,” It urged Mr. Truman to ask Congress to amend the fair labor standards act to increase the hourly minimum pay by 50 cents, His memorandum covered a wide range of other economic matters, including unemployment, taxes, rent control and housing, tax amortization policy, and social security, It was largely an - expansion of pelicy voted by the CIO convention in New York last month. Assails Congress In the lengthy document, Mr. Rieve lashed out at Congress for “geting in a purely negative fashion during these trying times.” But he confidently assured Mr. Truman “the American people will respond to forthright leadership when they are given the opportunity to pass upon it at the polls.” The CIO official noted widespread unemployment in such areas as Detroit and parts of New England and voiced hope that Mr. Truman will ask Congress for “supplementary” unemployment insurance benefits. He also recommended a “standby authority to deal with the problem of serious inflationary pressures in all the price fields

IT STILL IS NOT official, but there ‘is every reason to believe that Mr. Jackson will succeed Leslie Crouch as president of the insurance company at its annual meeting Feb, 18. But what about the State Chamber? Who'll run it?
