WAGES IN UNITED STATES
Large Proportion of American Work
men Unable to Maintain Eff
cfent Standard of Living.

An estimate was made some time
ago that a New York family consist
ing of a. man, wife and three children
under fourteen could maintain a nor
NAL standard of living on an annual
income of $500. Then the question
arose as to the number of families
whose income equaled that sum.
Scott Nearing, the economic writer
of the University of Pennsylvania,
studied the question for many months
and in a book, wages in the United
States," which was published recent
ly, he states the conclusion that a
large proportion of American work
men are unable to maintain an eff
cient standard of living. Three
fourths of the adult men and nineteen
twentieths of the adult women, he
says, actually earn less than $500 a
year, or to give his conclusions more
in detail, one-half of the men are
earning less than $500 a year, three.
fourths less than 5000, nine-tenths
less than $500, while less than ten
per cent. receive more than that fig
ure. Of the women, one-fifth earn
less than 5000 annually, and three
fifths less than 1925, while only one
twentieth earl more than $500.
To arrive at these figures Doctor
Nearing takes up various state wage
statistics. Massachusetts, New Jer-
sey, Kansas, Michigan, New Hamp-
shire. Rhode Island and Pennsylvania
are 8 III tned, while special wage
re%portses th Wisconsin and Illinois
are included.

FUEL WASTE MOUNTS HIGH.

Chicago, Nov. 80. - American
railroads lose $50, 900, 900 worth G
fuel a year and consume 5000, 000
600 worth of coal to secure $780,
100000 worth of efficiency - a
further waste of $3.50, O00,O 900 OF
fuel - according to figures pre-
pared by Chief Engineer l.. E.
Fitch, of the Chicago, Great West
ern railroad. That road conduct
ed an investigation by istelf, fol
lowing the charge by Louis Bran,
deis that railroads wasted $1,000,
600 a day in inefficient service
and Mr.. Fitch s report is one re-
suit.
The remedy suggested is a fuel
bureau of experts, improved fin
Ing devices on locomotives, and a
school for firemen more scientific
ordering of locomotives for serv-
ice and closer watch Oh exposed
coal yards.
each loss of 1 per cent in
fuel in American railroad busines
means a loss CT So, 000, 000," says
Mr.. F'itch's report. Only 45 per
cent Of the coal used returns eff
fective results, the remainder be-
ing wasted. This loss goes into
blown eff steam, unburned gases,
waiting locomotives that have
been fired up too soon, radiation
from boilers, humps lost along the
road and taken from open coal
yards, ucsci2ntfic handling of To-
o-motivGs and other wastes.
"The fuel bureau could begin
by intelligent purchasing of high
ar grade coal, could instruct fire
men to perform their work with
economy in view, could conduct
tests for better heat Insulation of
boilers, have call orders for en-
issued with mere regard for
the length of time required to
fire up and could otherwise con-
serve the fuel supply"
In ten years, says the report,
American railroads have increas-
ed the cost of their fuel supply
$104, 1926, 900 to 1913, 1913, 900.

MRS. O'GRADY HAS RIGHT
TO BRING AN ACTION.

Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 80. - That
Mrs. Margaret O'Grady has a
right to push her claim for
I$l,525 against the Burlington rail
road company, was the finding cd
the supreme court in a decision
handed down today.
Mrs. O'Grady, with her family
Of nine children, was on her way
from Superior to Haigler. When
she purchased her tickets the
agent at Superior assured her
that she would not have to
change cars. However, when she
reached McCoOk she was told by
the trainmen that she would have
to change.
1t was in the middle of the
night, and in the confusion she
left a satchel on the car. The
satchel contained the family bank
roll, 81 ,525.
When she gathered her brood
of nine about her on the plat
form at McCook she thought Of
the satchel and its precious con-
tents on the train. But the train
men refused to permit her to re-
enter the car.
In the district court of Furnas
county the court demurred ON
the ground that she did not have
a cause of action, according to
the contents of her complaint

will be obviated.
The country is demanding a reduc-
ton In the tariff. President Taft has
said that he favored a reduction, but
his actions have indicated that IL he
does he is afraid to assert his position.
When the regular session meets the final
round will come. There are enough
Democrats and insurgent Republicans
to pass other tariff bills If the tariff
board doesn't report or doesn't recon-
mend reduction ir keeping with what
the Democrats believe Is right. Then
the president must again veto the bills
or sign them. II he vetoes them then
the Democrats will fail 20 appropriate
money for the tariff board and the
president will have it on his hands. 1t
is beginning to look as though the ad-
ministration which began under such
suspicious circumstances is going to
go down in humiliating defeat.

In the September is5ue Of the Mes

rector Of Christ Episcopal church, this
city, there is a letter from Bishop Ed
WI @. Weed in which he says that
on account of the rapid development
Of the whole state the call for an ex-
tension of the church work into new
fields Is very great. He points out
that the newcomers as a rule are not
able at f1rst to supply the financial
support Of a rector and he urges the
members to do their best to carry on
the work in Florida as the state grows
in population. This is good news in
that 1t shows the class OF people who
are coming to Florida to live. It shows
that they have something to look
