WITHOUT AGITATORS
INDUSTRY FlOURlSHES
Figures Show Big Increase In Wages

be cleaned from the remarkable indus.
trial growth In the Borough Of Queens.
New York City. as shown By the fg-
ures recently complied by the Bureau
OF Census for the year 1914.
The figures record decided gain
not only La the number Of new facto-
ries, capital invested In manufactur.
ting. and the value of manufactured
products. but also in the sum total Of
salaries and wages and the number of
salaried employees and wage earners
since the taking Of the last census In
1909 From percentage standpoint
the Increase over the several items
was as follows:
Salariel employees. 62.7 per cent: sal
aries, COS per cent: wages, IS per cent;
wage carriers. 3o.7 per cent; capital In.
vested. 70 per cent: number Of facto-
ries. 2G6 per cent; value Of products
SIS per cent
While complete figures have not Leer
published as yet for all the cities and
States. still from the figures that ART
now available it Is evident that the
Borough Of Queens for the year 1914

tured products many States Of the
Union, such a. Vermont Delaware

Dear promise kept despite the wear
