EDITOR THE TIMES:

the public will not be led astray
by this statement.
Mr.. Bean doesn't say that II
took seven days q week about ~
hours a day platform work and
from 500 in the morning until
$3.50 at night to get this time in.
Now. on July 4. my husband
worked 10 hours straight plat
form work--over two days work
at an eight-hour day-and on
July 3, Is hours and % minutes
platform work.
Now take for example . man
working eight hours a day with
Sundays off at the same rate of
wages given to man under one
year in the company's employ
would receive at 81 cents per
hour $3.50. And any man
after five years of service re-
ceives "a cents. He would re-
ceive for his work $34.45 for
the first half of July. w
arise at 1870 q. m. to get
him breakfast and at noon he 10
home one hour and a half, and
at o'clock p. m. he gets home
to supper. And we live very
near to the car barn, compared
to what most of the men do.
Mr.. Bean also calls the atten-
tion of the public to the NUM-
Der of hours a man worked who
received small check but did not
state the number OF hours worked
to receive the checks of larger
amounts. G. G. A.
