ALlvIur Wa4s.

There is one point on which it is
necessary to insist; the really inn
portant thing is the maintenance of
a standard of comfort Of real
wages. It is only in this sense that
high wages promote efficiency. Iu-
creased money wages are a boon in
SO far as they give the opportunity
for forming better habits Of life,
and raising the standard of cont
fort; a gradual improvement in the
rate if it can be maintained is very
likely to have this effect. But the
high money wages of the 18th
century seem to have tempted
the laborer to take it out in the
pleasures of pure idleness; in 50 far
as high rate Of money wages
tempts to irregularity of work, it
does not really raise the standard
of living at all. On this account
it seems doubtful whether it is
possible to raise the standard of a
class or to improve their efficiency
by merely increasing money wages.
This Is the great difficulty in try
ing to remedy the condition for the
poorest classes of all by attempt
ing to fix a living wage for those
who are worst off at present. More
money gives the opportunity of
improvement, but only the opportu-
nifty; the wisdom to use the oppor-
tunity cannot be supplied suddenly
or by wholesale.
From this it follows that an in
crease Of money wages, which is
merely temporary, is very doubt
full advantage, as it does not give
the chance of readjusting habits to
the improved condition. The pru-
dent man cannot take a better
house, or keep his children longer
at school, or increase his regular
expenditure; if he does, retrench-
ment may be suddenly forced on
him in a way that it is difficult for
him to face. If the temporary in
crease is sudden and large, the
temptation to take ii out in imme-
date enjoyment of some kind will
be proportionately strong, and may
have effects on character that are
permanently bad. The greatest
good for the community is attained
by steady advance of the stand
ard of comfort and conditions of
efficiency. The fixing of living
wage for each trade, subject to
quinquenial or decennial revision,
would give far better conditions
for maintaining and improving the
standard of comfort and efficiency
of artisans, than the fluctuating
rates and irregular conditions with
which we are now familiar. Prof.
w. Cunningham.
