MORE COMPARISONS OF GREAT BRITAIN
WITH GERMANY
BY Clype II. Travcner

Manchester England, Sept a.
British real wages, as measured by
the rates of weekly wages and whole
sale food prices, increased between
1890 and 1905 Is per cent. In the
same period German real wages In
creased only 10 per cent.
Thus the British Board of Trade
using official figures, contrasts the
conditions of the workingman in
England under "free-trade" with
those of the workingman in Germany
under protection.
incidentally. the Board of Trade
shows that while wages increastd 10
per cent in Germany, the increase
in wages in the United States in the
same peri odwas 3.s per cent.
Here are a few contrasts between
free trade England and nigh pro
lection Germany, as brought out by
the Board of Trade:
Where a Briton earns $1.20 in
wages. German earns 90c.
Where Briton works 100 hours, a
German works III hours.
Where a Briton pays s1.2O in rent.
German pays $1.47.
Where a Briton spends $120 on

As to the consumption of meat in
Germany, consular reports show thai
Increased protection has resulted in
q corresponding reduction in the per
capita consumption. Bctwten 1901
and 1905, for example according to
the report of the United states con-
sui at Dersden, there was a decreease
of over 22 ponds per head in the
amount of meat consumed in Ger

Most striking of all Is the effec
of protection on the price of breat
in Germany. The German duty on
wheat is $2.s4 a quarter (4s0
pounds.)
Between october, 1905, and March,
1908, the price of rye bread i'm Ber-
lin increased 32 per cent. A 32 per

becomes serious matter when it is
considered that $5.76 is the average
