it could mean faster economic growth through more spending money circulating quickly. It could mean great er cost-trimming efforts such as turning to machines to replace man or woman labor. But whatever the future may bring, one thing's for sure. Today is a happy one for a lot of workers. Some 2.6 million low-paid workers are due for a wage boost today because the legal minimum goes up to $1.25 an hour from $1.15.

Even more persons perhaps expect to benefit indirectly because their differ ential tends to rise as the lowest paid job does. Also Living Costs Up At least a million others, in many pay brackets, will get more because the cost of living has just hit another record high. Others are due for wage hikes automatically under existing union contracts. Some big unions are now negotiating new pacts the remaining slice of this quota affecting five million or more workers. Congress has boosted many of the govern civil and military pay brackets.

minimum wage hike law also could affect about four million workers in the retail and service trades by giving them overtime pay above a 44 hour week. It. also makes some salaried administrative, executive and professional employees eligible for overtime pay for the first time. A hike in minimum wages usually spurs demands of other employees for higher pay for BIG 4 SHOE STORE GEO BAUM COTTAGE CHEESE "GOOD ALL THE TIME" TELEPHONE TK 4-8621 their above-minimum jobs Thus, GorllCim the executive council of the tex tiie workers union of Ray E.

The increase costs may build more pressure for price hikes, especially where affected company management already have been complaining of low profit margins the relations of earn ings to sales. hanges Better If the industry has idle capacity and keen competition, the pressure may lack force. But as business activity picks up the chances of price rises get better And the increase in purchasing power as pay checks swell helps retailers, and thus producers Offsetting this, as some see it, will be the drag of higher production and retailing costs on plans to expand plants or hire more hands. And the new overtime rules may make some employers think twice. The rise in pay scales has slowed in recent months, but the granting of fringe benefits has kept production costs on the upswing.

More than a million workers in the auto, farm machinery, aerospace and construction eq uipment industries are getting a pay hike of from one cent to three cents an hour under contracts tied to the cost of living index. This rose in July to a new high of 107.1 per cent of the 1957-59 average. Employes of some companies are getting an additional boost as provided in long-term labor contracts. Where these annual increases are provided for blue collar workers, more companies are providing like boosts for white collar workers. All of this post labor day good cheer for hourly and salaried workers is one reason that gov ernment and business economists feel so sure that total of person al incomes will rise the rest of this year.

And as this spending money increases so does the chance of better times ahead.

(JP)The boy-meets-girl format is a show business cliche, but an even more rigid form governs the animal story. That plot recipe reads as follows: Boy gets pet; pet does something wrong; pet saves life; all is okay. But that unchanging formula used literally thousands of times in films and televisions, is carefully avoided in the NBC television shows made by Walt Disney. Winston Hibler. the producer of nature stories, is an expert In a special story form that combines film of wild life with a story line which often incorporates humans.

Recently, a Disney crew has been patiently staked out in the Southern California Hills, photographing coyotes, hardly one of the more lovable species.

They will turn out in a televission film, however, as a from cranes. '(One intrepid photographer covered himself with a bison skin and mingled with a buffalo herd to get close-ups.) Then, for the story portion, Hibler uses what he calls trained, tame or (More likely) trained. These two elements are delicately stitched together. But one such film represents a more difficult job than shooting the average hour-long dramatic show. One Disney crew, for example, shot one million feet of film in the Far North for a single program.

From 150.000 feet shot of the bison herd in Yellowstone National Park, a mere 3,000 feet reached theaters and television screens. editing the average television or motion picture, two three feet of film are thrown out for every foot Hibler estimated. nature stories, we use about one foot for every 15 or 20 shot."
