GIRLS "AoRiFT" CAN LIVE
ON SO. 90 A WEEK
Statement Made to Show That Mini
mum Wage Scale Of $500 For
Women is Too High

Chicago, March 10-William c.
Thorne, vice president of Montgom-
cry Ward 4 Company, mail order
house, told the Illinois vice commits
sion today that a girl "adrift" can
live on IS week, thus:
Room rent and board, $3.50.
Breakfast, coffee and rolls, 40.
Luncheon, 90c.
Dinners, 81 40.
Car fare, o0c.
Clothing and incidentals, 81 20.
The witness gave the foregoing
statement to show that the commits.
sion idea that there should be min
imum wage scale for women of sl2
a week is too high. The figures Civ
en-, he said, were the actual expendi.
lures of one of his 1913 female EN-.
poyees. Another girl employee he
said, disbursed her wages as follows:
Room and board SO so.
Laundry 20 cents.
Carfare 20 cents.
Clothing and incidentals, SO. so.
Savings % cents.
Five Cent Surplus
The statement fails TO account for
a surplus of five cents, but this was
explained, and Senator Beall remark.

volously.

Thorne, were James Simpson, John

ed the witness.
The earnings of Montgomery Ward
& Co., for the last fiscal year were:
S2,376,000, Thorne said, and JUL,
having calculated that the expendi-
ture of $4,000 year would raise the
salaries of the five, six and seven
dollars girls to ten dollars, asked If
witness did not think the money may
well be spent in that way.
But" came the reply I'VE already

ployees very closely, and II this com.
mission can show us where We fail,

Price Would Cost Jobs
Thorne said that in his opinion a
minimum wage scale Of s12 a week
for women would drive half the fac.
tories out of Illinois, and cost hall
the women their jobs.
"The law wouldn't bother us much
but the factories would feel it and
they would hire men instead of wo
men If they had to pay s12, because
they can get more work out of the
men" said he.
The other witnesses readily gave
details of their payrolls, but they are

To Carry Out Necessary Reforms
"These rules were adopted to carry out
necessary reforms which experience in
the management OF the convict depart
ment had shown were necessary. They
were prepared and adopted In the spring
of 1912 and Immediately went Into effect
Their printing was delayed, however, un-
til August 20, 1912 1t has developed, dur
ing the examination of the convict de-
partment, that the wardens have been
very lax in the enforcement OF some OF
these rules.
AT the next regular meeting OF the
board of inspectors | will have adopted
the following additional rule
mo account shall be presented to the
governor for his approval for supplies of
any kind or character bought by this de-
partment until the same is accompanied
by a certificate of the president of the
board that tho same was bought on COM
petitive bid. the contract being awarded
to the lowest bidder at a reasonable
price, or that the supplies were pur-
chased In case of absolute emergency,
and that the price paid therefor was a
fair and reasonable price and not in ex-
cess of the market value of the goods
purchased In tho latter case there shall
also be statement of the reasons for
the emergency and the governor shall
be sole Judge from such facts as TO
whether the emergency In fact existed.

tion In the convict department has al
ready brought to light instances In
which the administration OF Its affairs
may be improved and many economies
introduced. The testimony taken Will
