Colorado Springs, Colorado III kkktiiumpiikkY, BELOVED poijtican Have you ever stopped to consider greatness? What is it that makes one man great and another ordinary? We all know men who enter politics with illusions of S'andeur. They convince emselves that they merely want to stand above the crowd. I think the thing that makes a man or woman great is the capacity to love. In recent times one such man comes to mind, the late Hubert H. Humphrey. He was am- • bitious for political power, but he touched the hearts of people. Even his adversaries recognized and appreciated his sincerity and warmth. There is a story about Hubert Humphrey when he was .vice- president which gives a glimpse of his charm He dropped in on a meeting of poor people involved in an anti- poverty program, and listened for nearly an hour, asking an1* occasional question The chairman finally said to him. "We'll understand, Mr. Humphrey, if you have to leave "Relax," the vice- president replied, "I wouldn't miss this for anything I just - changed my schedule". He stayed on for two more hours Hubert Humphrey touched people because he genuinely cared about them. He listened to them Always ready to speak, sometimes even long- winded. he nevertheless knew the art of listening Time is the infallible test of greatness It is too soon to know how history will regard Mr Humphrey's record, but the people he served hold him in high esteem The reason is simple: he was a loving man That quality is something we all could emulate We can all be great We can all love.

NFIB is the largest small business organization in the I'nited States and is growing more rapidly than any other in dividual membership business organization The Carter administration has asked the private business sector to limit wage and price increases to 5.5 percent, but the scheduled minimum wage increases greatly exceed this guideline Federal Reserve Board Chairman William E Miller has indicated that, in order to control the ac­ celerating inflationary spiral, some postponement of the legislated minimum wage step increases might be advisable It is apparent from the results of the NFIB survey that most small business owners agree with Miller's assessment NFIB President Wilson S .Johnson pointed to the fact that, for the first half of 1978, inflation averaged 9.4 percent on an annual basis "Sub­ stantial federal minimum wage increases will merely add to this inflationary trend." stated NFIB President Wilson S. Johnson "And the hardest-hit area of the economy will be the labor intensive small business sector "The most serious and far- reaching result of large minimum wage increases is that it will become too ex pensive to hire young and unskilled workers." Johnson warned "On the surface, it looks as though unskilled people would benefit from a higher minimum wage, but in practice it means that fewer people will be hired and fewer people will be given the chance to become skilled workers " Minimum wage and its effect on unemployment, especially that of youth and minorities, was studied Oct 12-14 at the first annual conference on T e e n a g e U n e m p l o y m e n t "Minimum Wage Legislation as a Primary Cause of Teenage Unemployment," was the subject of a conference workshop presented by Dr Walter E Williams. Associate Professor of Economics at Temple university "Nearly all economists who have studied the effect of the minimum wage law conclude that the most adverse unem­ ployment effects are borne by young workers, particularly young minority workers," Williams stated in a discussion about the conference workshop "The racial impact of the minimum wage law would exist in the absence of racial preferences on the part of employers However, if em plovers have racial p r e f e r e n c e s , t h e m i n i m u m wage law serves to reinforce r a c i a l d i s c r i m i n a t i o n , " Williams concluded Earth's crammed with Heaven.
