O'Brien stressed that presentstate laws vary so widely that"it is not only possible, but itis highly probably" that twoemployees o' the same com-pany, earning the same wagefor the same job, who sufferidentical injuries in two differ-erent states will receive entire-ly different workmen's compen-
sation insurance payments.
Organized labor's long-rangegoal is a federal workmen'scompensation system," saidJames 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 andcoverage that would assure"prompt and adequate wage re-placement to victims of workinjuries "

have not kept them "geared tothe needs of a modern indus-

The Soil Testing Division ofthe North Carolina Depart-ment of Agriculture has pro-vided the citizens of NorthCarolina, both rural andurban, with rapid service andup-to-date information on ap-
proximately 105,000 soilsamples during 1969.
The work of the divisionwas given in a report toAgriculture CommissionerJames A. Graham by divisionhe?d Dr. Donald W. Eaddy.
In addition to the standardsoil test and recom-mendations, the division nowprovides a trouble-shootingservice. Each year manyfarmers and homeowners getinto trouble with nutrient defi-ciencies or other problemswhich lead them to believethey are related to thenutrition of the crop.
