Course of Low Wages"

The Course of Low Wages provided
DR.. McKelway with text which he tried
to bring home to those of his audience
who are employed by citing their in
terest in better wage conditions where
they themselves are not concerned. but
failing to respond to the same SYM
pathy when their pocketbooks We're
touched.
Low wages. he declared. are curse
and high wages are blessing to every
community. The higher the wages, he il
Illustrated. the more customers are ere
ated and the more money they spend.
This works to the advantage of the en-
tire social circle, in his opinion.
He ridiculed the arguments advanced
by the laundries of Washington for an
advance in the laundry charges. He
had no idea what remote influence
upon these prices the war in Europe
had. Regarding the eight-hour law
for women. its operations did not bring
them a higher hourly wage. he said.
and he could not see how the laundries

Miss Falk Tells of Adventure.

An adventure of Miss Falk, executive
secretary. in her investigation of wage
conditions. was recited by her in her
report. She told of discovering an apron
factory of considerable size in the Dis
trict of Columbia and of probing the
charge that excessively low pay was
given for the labor exacted. She applied
for work at the factory; was refused
employment in the shop, but was given
material for a dozen aprons to take
home and complete, with the promise of
pay at the rate of 40 cents a dozen.
After working an hour, she produced
one completed apron and returned with
1T to the factory. There she threw up
the job. dickered with the concern as
to whether she was to be paid 3 or
cents for the finished apron, and when
the concern could not find cents in
their cash drawer or pockets and she
would not make change, was paid 4
cents in postage stamps.

Review of Sanitation Work,

Surgeon Gen. Gorgas gave an in
teresting review of the sanitation work
in Havana and Panama as the setting
for his economic conclusions. In Pan
anna. after eliminating the disease
bearing mosquito and banishing yellow
fever and malaria, the fact was noted
by him that all other disease had been
practically banished. This was brought
about, in his opinion, by high wages,
bringing a better class of workers. and
providing them with larger living ac-
commodations and better food This
brought him to the conclusion that the
greatest element in sanitation is in
crease in wages. and established to his
satisfaction the close relationship be-
tween low wages and disease.
To increase wages in the United States
by legislation. he said. would merely re-
suit in the imposition of tax on those
whose wages We're increased which
would take it away from them and
leave thep in the same situation as
before. He expressed his opinion that
conditions in Panama are at this mo-
ment superior to those existing in
Washington. Time was in the United
States, he said. when wage conditions
were much better-when men received
ial days. when man employing an
other to do work was required by
conditions TO pay his employe little
more than he himself could do the
same work for
A natural wage he not only defined
as a just wage. but standardized it as
the wage that provided all the money
that the worker could properly use
land nothing more" Such wages pre-
vailed in the United States, he declared,
for century and more: nowhere in
the United States. he added, do natural
wages now obtain.
