b That all persons employed on the farm in the production, cultivation, or harvesting of sugar beets or sugarcane with re spect to which an application fo r payment Is made than have been paid in fu ll for aU such work, and shall have been paid wages therefore at rates not less than those that may be de termined by the Secretary to be fair and reasonable after in vestigation and due notice and opportunity for public hearing;
and in making such determinations the Secretary shall take into consideration the standards therefor formerly established by him under the Agricultural Adjustment Act, as amended, and the differences in conditions among various producing areas:
Provided, however, That apayment which would be payable except for the foregoing provisions of this subsection may be made, as the Secretary may determine, in such manner that the laborer will receive an amount, insofar as such payment will suffice, equal to the amount of the accrued unpaid wages for such work, and that the producer will receive the remainder, if any, of such payment.

and Whereas Section 301 e of the said act provides, in part as follows:
The conditions provided in sub-section b with re spect to wage rates, of this section shall not apply to work per formed prior to the enactment of this Act; .
