5Eavors State Commission
to Adjust Sliding Scale
for the Minimum Wage Law
fspeciaI to the Evening start

MADISON. March 9-"The Cues
ton of a Minimum Wage" was the
subject at the Mems Forum meet
ing in the Methodist Church yester-
day morning. All were in favor OF
the minimum wage. All kinds OF
occupations were represented. Inc
principal speaker was Alexander 4.
Crane, of Redgedale avenue, VINO il
q member of the Carpenters Union
and Is well acquainted with WORK
and wages.
ut is impossible" said Mr.. Crane,
ito pass a general minimum wage
law on account of the fact that so
many different means of livelihood
require varying wages
The speaker was in favor OF
State commission to adjust the min
imum wage law. He stated that
there should be SUCH a commission
in each State, as one commission
could not be acquainted with the
different States. He thought, also,
that wages should be regulated on
a sliding scale to suit the different
seasons of the year. Supply and de-
mand always regulate price, and this
is true I'm labor as well as anything
else. At the different times of the
year there are slow and rush sea-
sons. Any minimum wage, he
thought, should be liberal living
wage. This would be necessarily
higher now than ii would have sew
eral years ago on account of the in
creased cost of living The first pur-
pose of a minimum wage, he stated,
is the protection of the home and
the women and children in the
homes
