Lazy Tropical laborers.

The most considerate employers of
tropical labor agree with the most in
considerate In saying that in general
1t is useless to attempt to spur the ma
tives by any motive beyond the actual
demands of food and shelter Kind
ness and consideration on the part of
the employer undoubtedly promote
faithfulness, but they seem rarely to
arouse ambition or energy.
1t is literally true in Guatemala, for
instance. that the more native is
paid the less he will work. If one
days pay will buy two days food he
will work half the time; if the pay is
increased so that one days pay will
buy food for three days he will work
one-third of the time. The experiment
has been tried again and again, and
there Is practically universal agree
ment as to its result.-Professor Ellis
worth Huntington In Journal of Race
