English shoe manufacturers who are
beginning to suffer from American
competition allege that, although the
British workman's daily wages are
only about half as large as those OF
the American operative, the labor
cost" of a pair of shoes is fully 25 pei
cent more in England than in tho
United States. Most of the response.
bility for this fact is laid upon the
British union Of boot and shoe opera
tives, which, it is said. forbids its mem,
bers to turn out more than n certain
amount OF work. Possibly this union
has found the solution to the labor
problem; but the manufacturers doubt
it, and base their doubt upon the ex-
perlence OF the race-that men who
are afraid Of doing too much eventual.
