bONUSFOREACH YEAR MEN STAY
 WITH COMP ANY

A bonus plan has been put into effect by the Copper Queen branch of the Phelps Dodge corporation. The plan is a decided innovation in the ordinary method, and was put into effect for several reasons.
 The plan proposes that each man in the employ of the company for one year shall receive $100 additional bonus, with $10 extra for each addi- tional year of service up to maxi mum of S250, when no additional bonus will be paid.
 At the present time a man gets his daily wage, s535 irrespective of his age, his skill, his length of sel . vice or any of the other factors that go to make up his individual value and earning power. By the payment of a bonus, however, it is recognized to some extent that a man who has been in the employ of the company for year and longer is worth more to the company for his individual ef- fort and the skill which he has ac- quired than a new mana thing that is not provided for by the standard and fixed scale of wages.
 New Men Costly
 In January, 1918, the companies o1 the Warren district announced that every man who had been in theil services continuously for one veal would receive s100 bonus, with s5( for six months service. The Phelps Dodge corporation at that time paid S1S1, ,130 to 2,2S6 employees. When i | is considered that the average mum. Der of employees for the year wa. 3,773. it will be seen that third: of the men had been with the com pany six months or a year.
 The bonus is not given as re-
 ward for staying one year with tn, company. But labor turnover il
