pairing for his share in the continued prosperity o + to be able to sus-
tain himself during temporary depression. He has not had the best
of it the last few years, while capital has. He has seen PRICES 90
HIGHER AND HIGHER, until in some lines they have become
prohibtive. On the whole, he has seen wages go higher and higher,
always keeping an advance, varying in its degree, on prices. The
margin before the late financial furry was less than the last few years,
so that, taking the general range Of prices and the general range Of
wages, WAGES HAVE NOT INCREASED more than 4 or s
per cent more rapidly than prices.
So the wage Garner has felt that he was not getting his FULL
share Of the benefits of the greater prosperity that has prevailed, and
in this respect his position is correct. Now, with the new conditions
confronting us low prices will prevail ag%ain-that is, if prices go down,
and there may be such a tendency during the next few months.
WAGES WILL REMAIN PRACTICALLY WHERE THEY
ARE for some time, for it has been well established by long expert
ence that when prices rise wages remain down for awhile and then
follow on, rising as fast as prices and ultimately a little more rapidly.
So when prices 60 down wages follow along at a later period, but they
do not fall quite as low $ at any previous periods, because the con-
slant trend Of wages with ever varying alterations Of conditions is
UPWARD.
WHILE THE ABSOLUTE STABILITY AND INTEGRITY OF cAPl.
