A I A A Family Newspaper--Devoted to Local and General Intelligence, Agriculture and Advertising. Independent on all subjects. per Annum in Advance BEATING THE "SUMMER SLUMP" An executive of a big department store recently had something to say about how retailers can move goods, particularly during the so-called "summer He put it in a jingle: "Early to bed; early to rise; work like hell; and advertise." Then he dealt with newspapers as an advertising media: "Newspaper circulation stays up in the summer. There is no appreciable change in the number of papers distributed, and this means that our advertising will get full readership and may even be more effective, because people are more relaxed and have more time to read." No matter what the season--and in spite of the emergence of newer forms of advertising media--newspapers remain a prime vehicle for interesting people in goods and services and persuading them to buy. You can't beat the written word.

PRICED OUT OF THE MARKET Labor hurts itself by pressing for increases in the minimum wage. a top of the in an interview published in the June issue of Nation's Business. His point is that unrealistic wage pressure can cause workers to price themselves out of the job market. To quote him directly: "In the first place, a minimum wage of any siz will eliminate the lowest grade of workers. "When they are sifted out because they cant earn a minimum wage, there appears to be no place for them to go.

"In the second place, the minimum wage inevitably adds price rigidity and makes it more difficult for management to adjust labor application to the best advantage. "Therefore, labor itself ultimately suffers." At the present time, it is proposed not only that the federal minimum wage be increased by but that the coverage be extended to large groups of workers, notably those in retailing, who have been exempt ever since the law came into being back in depression days. Should this effort succeed, retailers and others affected will have no choice save to pare marginal employment to the limit. Widespread unemployment among the unskilled would result--and these people would lose the opportunity to Miss Del-Mar-Va of 1959, the lovely Nina Lou Ringler, of Selbyville, Delaware, jogs Crystal Waylay around the Ocean Downs track to prep him for the 24-night campaign which opened July 27.
