YES WHY NOT

Looking over the news columns we
see that Mayor Gaynor of New York
has military aide with the rank OF
lieutenant
The fact is respectfully called tn
the attention of Alderman M
Napoleon Castleman. Just now he is
for charging the payroll of Gary by
|creating four city Scholarships, a
|sealer. first deputy, second deputy
and third deputy.
In his zeal for setting up new jobs
why not military aide? If not the
spectacle of Major Butt all ablaze
in gold and blue trailing after Mayor
Knots why not an A. d. c. for OLD
Battle Axe himself

At meeting of physicians and
health officials at Columbus to discuss
a proposition of yaccinating residents
of Columbus free of charge. all of the
physicians present voted against the
plan. DIR. George T. MacCoy. former
president of the state board of health
said the merchants OF Columbus were
paid for everything they did or furn :

should be paid when they vaccinate
people. He said il the people were not
able to pay for vaccination, the city
should pay the bill. He charged that

RAILWAY WAGES AND
COST OF LIVING
Interesting data Showing Relative
Cost of Living in England and
America, Compared With Wages.

The bureau of railway economics
has completed the second of its
comparative stddies of railway con-
dtions in the United States and the
principal countries of Europe. This
relates to the wages paid railway
employees and the cost of living. and
is based on the latest years for which
comparative data are available.
The verage daily compensation of
railway employees Of all classes for
the year 1910 was in the United
States, $2.Z5; in the United King
dom, $1.05; excluding supplement
tary allowances negligibly affecting
the average, it was in Prussia-Hesse
81 cents, and in Austria 50 cents.
The lowest paid railway employee in
the United States, the ordinary
trackman, receives a greater com
pensation than many of he railway
employees of France. even those OF
higher grades and with responsible
duties. The compensation of rail
way employees is from one to three
times as high in the United States
as in Italy.
A recent report of the English
1O,~I ~F FrnIo IN - IlXUaU wa CnS
shows that the average weekly pay
of enginemen in the United Kingdom
in 1907 was S11,17: of firemen,
5 81. In the same year enginemen
on American railways received al
average weekly compensation Of
$3.50, counting six days to the
week, and firemen s15.24. Recent
returns make it clear that in 1912
enginemen and firemen in the Uni
ted States are compensated at rates
of pay for specific runs that are two
three and four times as high as the
corresponding rates on representa-
tive English railways. Inc annua
compensation Of enginemen in thu
United States, as reported by two
representative railway companies
now ranges from $1,t00 in switch
ing service to over $4,000 in passen
ger service, and of tiremen from
500 in switching service to owe
$500 in passenger service.
For Continental Europe official re
turns in requisite detail are no
available for a later year than 1908
The salaries and allownces of TIL
typical engineman in Germn,
amounted for that year to $646.SS
in Austria to $S70.S0; of firemen il
Germany to S424.59, in Austria t
Brownsville herald. [volume] (Brownsville, Tex.) 1910-current, 1912-06-19

S532.03. The annual compensation
OF enginemen on w OF the principal
railways of France ranged in 1908
from $5O5.66 to $906.91, and Of
firemen from $324.24 to S595.9S. In
Italy enginemen received in 1905,
salary an allowances included, from
$5S1.l0 to $S12.70 a year; tiremcn,
from $4,000 to $475.05 a year. In
the continental countries the maxi
mum compensation is received only
after years of service.
The annual average compensation
of enginemen in the United States in
1908, estimated on a basis Of 800
days service, was s1,335; of fire
men, 1892. In this country the rate
of compensation to these. employees
does not depend on the length of ser
vice.
In Belgium enginemen received in
1907 from $23.16 to $3.50 a month;
iremen, from $17.37 to $23.16 a
month; conductors and station en-
ployes, from 46 to SO cents a day.
In the United States in the same
year, 1907, enginemen averaged, on
the basis of p days service, $107,-
80 per month; firemen, $3.50 q
month; conductors, $3.50 a day;
station employees, from Sis TO
$2.05 a day.
The rental of a three or four
room house or flat is almost as high
in Berlin, Paris or London as
throughout the United States, but in
England and on the continent i.
generally runs from thirty dollars to
ninety dollars a year less. The
Quantity of food and fuel estimated
by the board of trade of England as
the standard consumption OF a typi-
cal workman's family costs in the
UNITED States 17.S per CEN more
than in France or in Germany; 35.5
per cent more than in Belgium, and
3S per CEN more than in the United
Kingdom.
1t is well within the truth to es-
'timate that in a broad and general
way that while the cost of living of
a railway employee in the United
States is less than fifty per cent
higher than that Of a corresponding
employe in the United Kingdom or
on the continent, his compensation
averages over twice as great.
