White have told each other at these
talk-fests just what a Shame it was
that there should be so many idle
DR.. Henderson has suggested that
it was deplorable. DR.. White has
echoed: cit is, indeed" But moth
ing has been done.
Commissioner of Public Works Nc
Gam says that if the men we're put
to work by the municipality there
would be work for not more than 800
men, less than five per cent Of the
number that DR.. White calculates are
out of work.
One of the plutocratic solutions Of
fered by the ''hot air" commission is
that these men shall be given one
DAVIS work in exchange for three
days lodging and food.
If this lodging is to consist of a
place in the Municipal Lodging House
and the commission is very vague
on what it is to consist Oft will
cost the city nothing but the few
cents it spends in coffee and rolls.
Seventy-f1ve cents would cover the
city's expense for lodging and food
for the three days, which, to be kind,
is at least a cheap price for labor.
DR.. White thinks that the house
wives should avail themselves of this
surplus labor now that labor is
cheap"
In other words, DR.. White would
encourage one class of men "scab-
bling" on another class if they are to
live at all, and the housewife pocket
ing the profit from labor's surplus.
