Negotiators reach child harvest labor amid wage talks
House and Senate minimum wage negotiators set aside the main wage dispute to allow children as young as 10 to harvest crops during short seasons. Both sides would raise the minimum from 2.30 to 2.65 per hour next Jan 1, with 3.0 by 1980 and 3.40 by 1981 in different proposals. Senate conferees hint at concessions on tips and coverage size. The 1974 act had banned under 12 from farm chores.
