WASHINGTON?An AFL-CIO spokesman called 1 the recent Federal Employees Workmen's Compensation Act "the best in the country" and urged Con- gress to give workers in pri- vate industry the same kind of protection from wage loss stemming from on-the-job ac- cidents. systems?fifty state laws, two federal laws, and workmen's compensation laws for Puerto Rico, Guam and the Virgin Islands." O'Brien stressed that present state laws vary so widely that "it is not only possible, but it is highly probably" that two employees o' the same com- pany, earning the same wage for the same job, who suffer identical injuries in two differ- erent states will receive entire- ly different workmen's compen- sation insurance payments. Organized labor's long-range goal is a federal workmen's compensation system," said James O'Brien, an assistant di- rector o* the AFL-ClO's Depart- ment of Social Security. "But," he said, "the immediate objec- tive, is federal minimum stan- dards of eligibility .benefits and coverage that would assure "prompt and adequate wage re- placement to victims of work injuries " Tests M On 105,000 Soil Sam Rhonda Ewing.

Workmen'* .ompensation is the "oldest form of social in- surance in the United States," O'Brien noted. But, he stressed, the states, which have exclusive jurisdiction over the systems, have not kept them "geared to the needs of a modern indus- trial society." The Soil Testing Division of the North Carolina Depart- ment of Agriculture has pro- vided the citizens of North Carolina, both rural and urban, with rapid service and up-to-date information on ap- proximately 105,000 soil samples during 1969. The work of the division was given in a report to Agriculture Commissioner James A. Graham by division he?d Dr. Donald W. Eaddy. In addition to the standard soil test and recom- mendations, the division now provides a trouble-shooting service. Each year many farmers and homeowners get into trouble with nutrient defi- ciencies or other problems which lead them to believe they are related to the nutrition of the crop. When this happens, many send in soil samples accom- panied by all the pertinent information listed on special salmon-colored information sheets provided by the laboratory.

Questioned by reporters on the network radio interview, LABOR NEWS CONFERENCE, O'Brien saic* that shortcomings in the systems were recognized from the beginning, and the hope was that the states would update and strengthen their laws to make their systems "adequate."

But, he declared, "the State \u25a0egislatures have been either unable or unwilling to make the changes necessary" to cor- rect those shortcomings, and to keep their systems up to date. As a result, he said, there is no state-to-state uniformity of workmen's compensation. In- stead, he noted, there are now "fifty-five entirely different ?k Car§Sa?liMo' DURHAM, NORTH CAROLINA Ten Negroes are Recipients of WJC Journalism Fellowships WASHINGTON, D. C.

As the reigning Miss Wayne County, a title gained last year in an all-black contest, the talented Linda was handpicked to break the ice in the Miss Goldsboro affair. impact oui times have had on the whole of mankind. It was considered by many veteran observers of the pageant as the first "show stopper" in the history of the event. In the words of Sally Stedman, Miss North Carolina of 1968, the skit was "a superb perform- ance." Miss Stedman, who served as mistress of ceremon- ies for the show was a double winner in talent and swimsuit competition in the 1968 Miss America contest. She also won the Most Talented Musician award. Being second runner-up was | not particularly appealing to I the Wayne County native.
