Ambitious Teenagers See Fewer Jobs After Wage Law
The National Federation of Independent Business reports 1969 survey results showing 500,585 teenage jobs vanished nationwide after the 1966 wage hour law. Prior teen hiring fell from 38 percent of small firms to 45 percent now not employing teens, with an average drop of 1.4 teens per firm. Regional spikes in teen job seekers include 150 percent in the east south central states and 92 percent in the south Atlantic. Respondents criticize federal training programs as impractical for small business and cite higher training costs, wage mandates, and draft exemptions as disincentives to hire teens.

Proper Thread Vital To Sewing
Thread guides garment seams by matching fiber type to fabric. Natural fibers suit natural fabrics while synthetics pair with synthetic threads. Polyspun threads blend polyester core with cotton sheath for strength. Tension and presser foot pressure affect stitch quality and puckering. Mercerizing strengthens cotton thread and reduces shrinkage. Alexander Graham Bell predicted heavy air machines would soar, powered by new propulsion.
