TO RAISE WAGES
NEW JERSEY CORPORATION

Pullman Company Also TO Give En-
ployes Advance-Public Service
Corporation of New Jersey Will
Establish Minimum Wage for Girls
at Nine Dollars q Week.

Trenton, n. j., Dee. 25.-The Pub
lie Service Corporation of New Jersey,
beginning January !, will establish a
minimum wage scale of 50 week for
women and girls in its employ, be-
cause an investigation conducted by
the welfare committee of the corpor-
alton disclosed the fact that on a
weekly wage OF less there wo0ld be no
assurance that a girl or woman could
live in freedom from tho pitfalls and
temptations which beset young women
who are thrown in contact with the
world"
In announcing the new scale, Pres
ident Thomas N. McCarter referred
to it as in the nature of Christmas
