in Canoga By NANCY lill.l.-IIOl.TZMAN TIMES STAPP WKIfr.R The Salvation Army may do the Lord's work, but the government says it must pay earthly wages to those required to labor as part of a residential rehabilitation program, Under a recent U.S. Department of Labor decision, the Salvation Army was to pay the federal minimum wage td the men and women, mostly alcohol arid drug abusers, who perform various jobs while getting help for their problems. The participants fill 11,000 slots in more than 115 centers around the country. Southern California beds at 10 centers, The work falls under the Fair Labor Standards Act because the goods produced by the workers end up In interstate commerce said Labor Department spokesman Bob Cuccia; in Washington. Tho Army's position is that participants in the program are "beneficiaries," not employees with work being a part of the treatment protocol, much the way movie statp at the Betty Ford Center must take out the garbage.

The Salvation Army was founded in 1865 as a religious and charitable organization and Is a branch of the Christian church that Is run in a quasi-military fashion. The church affiliation is another argument for not having to pay wages to those in tho rehabilitation programs. Ttie Salvation Army Is appealing the ruling to a higher authority. Tho group, a national institution for more than 100 years, filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Alexandria, Va on Tuesday challenging the decision, The local organization Is also appealing to the court of public opinion, inviting reporters on Wednesday to tour their 180-bed facility at 7th Street and Towne Avenue downtown.

There, Salvation Army officials and tho men at work unloading trucks, packing lunches and refln-ishing furniture for resale at the thrift stores, explained their philosophies and beliefs. Officials said the ruling by the Wage and Hour Division of the Department of La- bor is disastrous to the organization's self-supporting program and the people it serves. The wage igsue has been kicking around since the first term of the Reagan Administration, according to an official on an appointed Labor Department committee that recommended program workers be paid. The committee, chaired by the president of Goodwill Industries of America "urged us to take an enforcement stance," Cuccia said. Goodwill, the Easter Seal Society and other similar organizations all pay wages, to their disabled workers, Cuccia said.

But Army officials counter that if wages were paid, needy substance abusers would be out on the Gut itntad now with our proven "Inildert" program.
