The labor advocate. [volume] (Cincinnati, Ohio) 1912-1937, 1916-02-26

Washington.-The proposed law pro-
viding for national aid to vocational
education has been reported favorably
by committees of the Senate and the
House This legislation contains the ele-
ments of the Dolliver bill. introduced in
1908 by Senator Doliver at the request
of the American Federation of Labor.
While differences yet exist as to the
administration and other details of the
proposed law, it is agreed that Federal
grants should be made to States that
develop industrial training of children.
In its report to the House, the Com
mittee on Education explains the pur
poses of this legislation.
"'Ihe American people have hardly be-
gun the work of providing for the prac-
teal education of millions of our wage
earners,' it says in this whole country
there are fewer trade schools than are
to be found in the now unfortunate little
German kingdom of Bavaria, with a
population not much greater than that
of New York City.
"lf we assume that a system of Voca
tonal training, pursued through years of
the past, would have increased the wage
earning capacity of each of these to the
extent of ten cents a day, this would
have made an increase of wages for the
group of 81, 800 900 a day, or S1000O,000
a year, with all that this would mean to
the wealth and life of the nation.

LOW WAGES A MENACE.

San Francisco.-Thc Evening Bullc-
tin Of this city is not impressed with
the steel trusts wage increase Of 10 per
cent or 81 800, 900 to its 25O,O 900 employees.
The Bulletin editor says:
This indicates an average annual
wage OF about $500 per man. The same
result is obtained by multiplying the
rate per hour-22 cents for unskillcd la
bor--ilrst by 10, as the average number
OF hours worked in a day, and then by
800, which is probably above the maxi
mum number OF days worked in a year.
1t has been a forcsightcd policy among
steel manufacturers blessed as they
have been with an unlimited supply Of
mskillcd labor from abroad, to attach
to their service number of men con
sidcrably in excess OF those that they
could employ at one time or AT least
for any apprccablc time.
Besides this it has to be remembered
that the 5000 rate is an average. and
that there must be wages which fall be
low 5000. Seven hundred dollars a
year, according to the careful com
putatiOns OF numerous Investigators, is
the minimum amount on which the aver
age worRngman can bring up a family
in bare dcccncy. Bare dcccncy' cX
cludcs nearly everything that we cal
luXurics, IT signifies condition under
which workingman is practically, il
brutal terms, no better of than a breed

WOULD AMEND FACTORY LAWS.

Albany, n. N.-Senator Wagner has
introduced an amendment to the State
labor laws which will deny employers
the right of court review of decisions
of the State Industrial Commission, in
crcasing the penalty for locking doors
in factories and more definitely fixing
responsibility for enforcement of laws
upon the whole commission As the law
now reads a factory owner who has
been ordered to improve his property
may 90 to the courts and delay enforce
mcnt.
Another amendment increases the
penalty for a violation of the law re
quiring factory exits to be unlocked.
Senator Wagner says that of all the
fires which have occurred during the
past few years where there has been
loss of life, nothing has contributed
so much to the loss of life as locked
exits

camps in the State, regardless of race.
Wages Of skilled workmen have been
increased so that they will now compare
tavorably with the best in the State.
All employees are to be re-employed
without discrimination, and guarantees
are made that foremen who exploit their
workmen will be discharged.
THE psychological effects of the
strike continues the commissioners,
are shown in the elimination of race
prejudiccs and the development of
brotherhood among the workmen, which
bears fruit in unity of purpose and will
ingncss to suffer and sacrifice for their
common good.
"lh his brief outline indicates an cvolu-
tionary condition that should under sane
leadership on both sides, bring about an
era Of good will that means peace and
prosperity to the State at large
1T also emphasizes the uniqueness Of
the strike, which has been conducted on
a different plane to any Western strike
OF similar magnitude and duration.
