1.-The increase in the ACREAGE wage of
all train service employees" Mr. Dunn
says. "ln the eight years 19OG-14 was
n per cent and in sixteen years 50 per
cent. The increase in the average wage
Of the other 50 per cent. of employees in
the same periods were 35 per cent. and
40 per cent. The average wage of the
100000 train service employees in 1914
was $1.:.:53: of the other 1881 900 en-
ployees $G87. The contrast between
the wages Of the train service en-
ployees and those of train dispatchers
and telegraph operators. station agents
and section foremen is especially strik.
ing. The working day of dispatchers
and operators is limited to nine hours
by federal law. but that Of station
agents and section foremen is ten
hours. and they must hold themselves
in readiness for duty at any time.
1.-The demands Of the train service
employees cannot be fairly granted un.
less prOpOrtiOnatc concessions are also
made to other railway employees. bur
the railways cannot grant the demands
Of the train service employees, much
less % per cent. advance in wages to
all their employees. which would
amount to $32OOOO.OOO year with
their present freight and passenger
rates.
"AIost people are disposed to regard
sympathetically all movements Of
workingmen TO improve their condi-
ton on the assumption that any ad-
vantage labor may gain will be secured
at the expense Of capital. No such as.
sumption can be made in this instance.
The proposed increase in wages would
necessarily result in advances in rates.
and most or all of it would. therefore be
horne. not by rich capitalists. but by
the 1OOO00.O00 people Of the United
States. Probably so per cent. of all
the people of this country have smaller
incomes than the men in railway train
service. and 1t is impossible to find.
under present conditions. any justifica-
ton for large advance in the income
Of this relatively we'll paid class mainly
at the expense of that much larger part
Of the public which is nowhere near as
well OF"
