Texas
In one department of The Herald
the composing room-two thirds OF
those holding regular situations CaH
union mem own either their own
MONIES or property in FL PasO city or
Wage Farmers With Eye to Future.
IL IS showing Of which The Herald
management is rather proud. While
The Herald has been urging the peo-
pie Of FL PasO to invest their money
IN homes and real estate, it is glad to
note that its own salaried and wage
earning employees have followed this
wise course and have been laying aside
some OF their earnings in this manner
1t is refutatiOn of the old belief that
printers and newspapers men were Of
mat class which stayed but a short
time in place and gave little thought
or the morrow. Many of The Herald's
employees have been with the paper
for many years without a break A
considerable number have been on the
payroll for ten years or more
Thrift Of FL PusO Typified.
Inc Herald believes that the thrift
OF It's employees typifies that of the
average employees of other large con
Germs in FL PasO and indicates the gem
eral good feeling between employer and
employe throughout the city and the
type of men who are earning ifvines
Tor themselves and families in FL Paso.
On the whole, the employees of Ell Paso
will average far above those IN almost
any other city, The Herald believes,
in their loyalty to their city and their
desire TO Keep up with its progress.
In investing their money in homes here.
they show proof of their faith in FL
PaSo, of the satisfaction they feel with
the city and of the security they feel
in their positions as a result of the
cordial relations that exist generally
between employer and employee
High Type OF Wage Enrner.
The Herald believes that FL PasO has
a higher type of wage earners in this
respect than the average city. There
are fewer rent houses here for the pop
uIauon than in most cities and the
percentage Of home owners generally
among those who work for a wage
IS particularly gratifying While il
is The Herald's belief that its per-
centage of employees owning homes in
El PasO is higher than that OF any
other institution, it feels that this de-
sire to accumulate something is but
a reflection, upon a magnified scale
OF the attitude of hundreds of wage
earners throughout the city. The
Herald considers this one OF the best
indications of the stability of any city
and is pleased to note such a cOndi-
lion in FL PasO.
