HELP THE HANDS TO SAVE.
Some Pertinent Advice to the Tobacco
Manufacturers

The last issue of the Southern To-
becco Journal contains the following:
1.-The question is being agitated to
some extent in the tobacco towns of
paying off hands in the factories at
half rates and Withholding the bal
ance of the pay until winter In a
time like this when money is close it
is well for the manufacturers to save
all they can and by adopting this
method they will be enabled to double
their work with the same amount Of
money. The adoption of this plan
would also be a benefit to the negroes
who do the work in the factories. 1t
is a we'll known fact that the factory
hands sQuander their money in the
summer and many of them come to
want in the winter. Last year Win
ston spent over $1,000 in helping the
suffering poor here in the dead of win
ter. Most of these sufferers would
have had ample means to live COM
fortably through the winter if they
had taken care of their money.
'tNow if the tobacco factories will
pay, say half the amount of each
hands wages now and reserve the bal
ance until January 1st, the negroes
will be much better off and the scant
money which each manufacturer has
VIII go twice as far in working tobac-
co. The Journal throws out the sug-
gestiOn and hopes it will bear fruit"
