TALKED OVER WAGES
PAID TO CLERKS
Employers Have Different
Opinions, Some Believ-
ing 81, 900 Enough.

Chicago, Feb. 24.-Is $1,000 a year
sufficient wage for the average
clerk?
John V. Farwell says it is. Some
| employers agree with him. Others do
not. A number are uncertain. The
average clerk" of course, places him
self on record with a vigorous mega
tive
Mr.. Farwelrs statement was made
in connection with a recent series of
articles having to do with the appar-
ent wastage of more than four million
| five hundred thousand dollars in city
salaries annually. Commenting along
| this lines, Mr. Farwell averred his be-
lief that city employees should receive
a little more money than the employees
of private corporations and corrober-
ated the statement of Walter H. Will
son. city controller, that the wage of
clerks in the city hall is higher than
that in a mercantile house. Then he
added:
My idea is that $1,000 a year is
sufficient for the average clerk
PRO and con" discussion of this
statement has since been heard from
various employers and employees and
letters have been received from a
number of the latter.
Here, summarized in one word each,
are the answers received in reply to
the question which heads the column:
"Yes!"
"No!"
"Maybe!"
Not Enough, Says Stevens.
Charles A. Stevens, president of
Charles A. Stevens & Bros, thinks
the sum mentioned hardly sufficient.
Il believe $1,000 a year is all right
as temporary salary said Mr.. Ste
vens, but hardly as permanent
wage for a clerk. 1t would be good
point for a young man. starting low, to
aim at, but he would certainly expect
to pass it ultimately and climb high
er."
Even if he remained a clerk, do
ing the same work as when he was re-
ceiving the same salary?" Mr.. Stevens
was asked.
well, believe that his work could
be SO adjusted" was the reply, that
| he could earn more money even in a
clerkship. If an office is properly sys-
tematized so that every mans work
represents the maximum of his effort
the employees ought to get more mon
ey"
Angus S. Hubbard Talks.
Angus H. Hibbard, general manager
of the Chicago Telephone company,
explained that the question would
hardly apply to employees of that con-
cern.
I'VE don't have average clerks in
the first place." said Mr.. Hibbard
THE wage matter with us narrows
down to a question of individual ef-
| ficiency and the men are paid accord
ing to the value produced by their
work"
"If a man accomplishes more than a
days work he is paid for it" he con-
cluded I'm other words, we pay our
employees according to their personal
ability and the stipend varies in the
case of each as a rule
e. N. Barton Has Similar Ideas.
e. NJ. Barton, chairman Of the board
of directors of the Western Electric
company. expressed himself along
similar lines.
"Our plan," he said, 'is to take a
young man-as clerk-Who is a be-
ginner. We then promote him as he
deserves. His ultimate salary depends
on the length of time he has been with
us and the excellence of his work dur
ing that time. In this connection,
however, I wouldn't care to express
