when the plane was wrenched
apart. There was no fire.
Tne Celerina had radioed that

Willard Wirtz Takes Oath
As Secretary of Labor
WASHINGTON W—W. Willard
Wirtz took the oath of office Tues
day as Secretary of Labor and al
most immediately moved in on
the touchy area of a shorter work
week.
Only a short time after he was
given the oath at a White House
ceremony in which President Ken
nedy took part, the new cabinet
member addressed a National Press
Club luncheon.
A major part of the speech was
that while Wirtz opposes the short
er work week, he believes the pro
posal deserves consideration.
Wirtz said flatly he feels the
32 or 35 hour week is not the j
answer to providing jobs tor tilt |
present four million unemployed
and the expanding work force.
Wirtz said the answer is an an
expanding economy with jobs tor
all. __
