Balanced Farming Debate Sparks Arkansas Event And Wage Law Critique
The piece blends a jab at a Yugoslav opera star and a report on the 149 Arkansas Balanced Farming Competition in Little Rock with a Forum and luncheon.

McComb’s critique of revised federal wage and hour law, arguing against broad minimum wage expansion and urging local industry growth through new plants to raise wages.
