How 1t Affects the Cost of Producing

WASHINGTON. May 8. - Complying
with a resolution of the senate, the
commissioner of labor has sent to that
body a statement showing the differ.
ence between the cost of producing
white pine lumber in the United
States and Canada. The report shows
that while the average wages in saw
mills in the United States is sl.7l per
day, and in Canada S1.41, the nv.
erage labor cost of 1000 feet
OF lumber is 81 cents in this
country to s1.aS in Canada. This dis
crepancy is due to the fact that the i'm
proved machinery used in this country
enables each laborer to accomplish
more than III Canada.
