Today, he can trace his own career through much of the development of the industry from B.C. as far as the Philip- pines. Perhaps his most notable achievement was development of a vast radio-telephone com- munications industry across northern B.C. Hal Straight, former man- aging editor of the Vancouver Sun and a close friend of Mr. McLean, said he thinks he was the first one to use a radio telephone in the province, when he made a call in 1928 from Ocean Falls, B.C., to Vancouver.

But only a fraction of ithe country's farm hands will WASHINGTON (AP) be affected because of numer- ous exemptions in the law. The law is expected to apply to about 1% per cent: of all farms and ranches and to about 390,000 workers, or 1244 per cent 'of all farm workers. The farm as well as the in- dividual must meet certain ell- gibility rules. Generally speak- ing, only large farm operations are covered. Exemptions as to coverage are set forth in a law to be- come effective Feb. 1 next. Backers of the legislation say they would like it to go iur- ther; opponents say it places an -- burden on the farmer as it is. farm workers. vides: That an employee shall not be covered if he is (1) "the parent, spouse, child, or other member of the employer's fam- ily," or (2) if he is hired to work on a piece rate basis, com- mutes daily from his permanent residence to the farm and has been employed in agriculture jless than 13 weeks during the preceding calendar year. This would exempt lange numbers of college students and others who work only in summers. Sheep herders and cowboys are exempt. | An important section of the law which results in exemption year, $1.15 in the second, and $1.30 an hour after the begin- ning of the third year, There are no overtime provisions for Specifically, the law as it now applies to farm workers pro- individuals, that the 500 man - days are roughly the equivalent of hiring seven or eight full-time workers. Last December the agricul- ture department took a count showing there were 3,128,000 persons who did some farm work for wages in the United States last year. during which an employee per- forms any agricultural labor for not less than one hour, In deter- mining the 500 man-days, the employer doesn't have to count the time worked by his wife,' children, parent or other exempt Congressional sources sai d than 1,000 shouted. There are more than 25,000 Americans in Turkey, most of them military families. The United States has three air bases in Turkey and a string of radar monitoring stations along the Black Sea, key com- ponents in the defence of NATO's southern flank. There was rioting again in the southern city of Adana, site of a U.S. Air Force base where more than 5,000 Americans live. The excuse given was that eight Negro American servicemen made rude remarks to Turkish girls on the street. ARMY CALLED IN A mob of about 500 stoned the U.S. consulate and wrecked the American Red Cross head- quarters, a recreation centre for the servicemen. The army had to be called in to quell the riot- ing mob, described as mainly students and unemployed work- men. | ag OVER 40 YEARS EXPERIENCE!

Anti-American Violence Breaks Out Among Turks Actions of some of the large number of American soldiers stationed in Turkey and their comparative affluence -- appar- ent from: late-model cars and imported American goods--have long rasped Turkish feelings. So far the rasping has been philosophically accepted by the Turkish government although negotiations -are in progress to tighten up some of the bilateral agreements under which the Americans operate and live in Turkey. The demonstrations, say American and Turkish officials, are results of concerted political and press campaigns against the United States. Two of Turkey's five largest newspapers carry vigorous anti - American pub- licity. Each time an American gets in trouble -- black-marketing, fighting, car accidents are com- mon incidents -- there is a front- page story. The Turkish Labor party spearheads a_ political drive against the American presence. The party won only 14 per. cent of the vote in, the last election but it is strong among students and controls a few small unions. Office Boy Made Good Heads B.C.
