statement that a certain paving com.
pany having its Offices in another
state, had recently taken contract
with the city of Norman to put in a
lot of paving. In due time this worn
was inaugurated and the company en-
ployed "a large number of workmen.
Under the law OF the state any con-
pany employing laborers must pay
them the wages common to the COM
munity in which the work Is being
done. Il was reported 10 Mr. Daugh-
erty that this law was being violated;
so he went to Norman forthwith to
make an Investigation.
At Norman. Mr. Daughcrty found
that the paving company had taken
the contract before judge Hook rem
dered his decision. and that they had
figured their contract on the basis of
the freight rates lu operation at that
time. They had figured on using a
great quantity OF asphaltum from
4hihhhpA's Nitt lA'lHhA bi bN Aiht
time was s.52 per ton. Immediately
upon the rendering OF the Hook d..
cision the railroads advanced the
rates on asphaltum to s1.5O--an in.
crease of approximately 200 per cent
This increase compelled the paving
company to cut their expenses, SO
they reduced the wages of their en-
ployees from $500 per day TO sia5
per day. The officials of the company
told Mr.. Daugherty that they wer,
perfectly willing to pay current prices
for labor. but to do so in view of tn,
increased freight rates would caur,
them To lose heavily on their contract
Under the law. however. they wer,
compelled to restore the wages of EN-
ployees to the former figure and {,
