and there was ample chance for
hunger in the interims. This unsea-
sonably grim comment was due 10
the disclosures made by the vice
commission concerning forgetful-
ness of employees during fifty-one
weeks of the year, which the Christ
mas turkeys and gold pieces are de-
signed to balance. The report states.
"In all large cities there is a system
of common school education which
is thorough and very good in most
cases. 1t educates the desires Of
young boys and girls to a point Of
at least decent living in comfort. it
also gives them the power of analyz-
ing their own positions and the posi-
tiOns of those who surround them.
1t is inevitable that when such Young
men and women go out into life, they
should be very ambitious that in a
few years they will be running some
establishment But later on man
reaches $12 or SIS week, and the
woman 81 or So, and find themselves
units in vast array of clerical and
office help, with no hope for better
ing their condition. This results in
creating class in society, too in
telligent 20 burden the world with
children whom they cannot support
and educate, and fill society with
homes where only the father works,
and homes which naturally will be
more frequented by installment col
lectors for furniture than by happi-
ness or any other socially comfort
able thing. 1t has been established
after exhaustive study that it is quite
impossible for working girl in any
large CITY to live on less than eight
dollars per week, yet employers say
that they pay on an average of from
Sc to 81 per week. This is all the
girls are worth they maintain, the
law of supply and demand regulates
all this And because the unskilled
girl workers are a drug on the mar
ket the employer keeps piling up
enormous profits and paying great
dividends, sometimes extra dividends"
