HIGH WAGES FOR
LABOR PREDICTED
S E c r TARY OF LABOR
WILSON SAID so.
Before the Committee on Rules in
Congress He Made This EN-
phatic Statement: Precaution
Must Be Taken.

No reduction in wages can be ex-
pected for number of years because
the demand for labor will exceed the
country's supply, the House rules
committee was told this week by Sec
retary of Labor Wilson. He appeared
to urge the completion of legislation
to provide useful and necessary public
work for discharged soldiers and in
dustrial workers The secretary
thought it would be only for a brief
period, if at all, that the government
would have to provide employment,
but that the precaution should be
taken He suggested extensive work
on highways, rivers and harbors and
public buildings under new appropria-
ton bills being framed by House COM
mittees.

SOR NAMED BY WILSON.
AS His First Official Act Mr.. Manley
Named William Harmon Black
as His Alternate on
the Board

President Wilson has accepted the
resignation of Frank p Walsh, joint
chairman of the national war labor
board, and has appointed Basil NJ.
Manley as Mr.. Walsh's successor. An
nouncement of the action was made by
Mr.. Walsh at the meeting of the board
last week. Mr.. Manley has been as
sistant to the joint chairmen, Mr.. Taft
and Mr. Walsh.
While the appointment was made by
the President, as was the appointment
of the other members of the board.
Mr.. Manly, like Mr.. Walsh, was chosen
for the place by unanimous vote of
the representatives of labor on the
war labor board. Five members of
the board represent, and were chosen
by, employers; five represent labor;
and the chairmen, representing the
public, are selected, one by labor and
one by the employers.
William Harmon Black, Mr.. Walsh's
alternate on the board, resigned with
Mr.. Walsh. Mr.. Manly, upon being
appointed to Mr.. Walsh's office, named
Mr.. Black as his alternate.
Mr.. Walsh, while retaining his citi-

tice law in New York
Mr. Manly has devoted his time to
national. industrial and economic
problems since 1905 A graduate of
Washington and Lee University, he
was later a fellow at the University
of Chicago, becoming a special agent
for the bureau of labor statistics, de-
partment of labor, in 1905. During
his tenure of this office, from 1908 to
1918. he directed an investigation and
wrote the four-volume report entitled
"The Iron and Steel Industry" which
was the first complete survey of an
American industry. After the report
was completed Congress appropriated
$4,000 for its publication.
Mr.. Manly, in 1913, was in charge
of an investigation for the bureau of
anthracite coal prices, which stated
that the coal operators had increased
prices for the year 1912 $4,000, 900
above the wage increases awarded to
the miners that year. Mr.. Manly was
economic adviser to the arbitration
board that fixed wages in the cloak
and suit industry in New York in
1918. He was director of research
and investigation for the United States
industrial relations commission, and in
1915 wrote what is known as the
MANLY report on the work of the

were published.

PENSIONING OF
OLD EMPLOYEES
LABOR BILLS OPPOSED IN
THE SENATE.
Juggling Of Bills Backed by Organ
ized Labor Seems To Be the
Favorite Pastime in the
Senate

The bill providing old-age pensions
for government employees has encoun-
tered hard shedding in the Senate
Senator Mckellar's measure. which is
advocated by the American Fedora
tion of Labor, the National Federation
of Federal Employees, the national or
ganizations of postal clerks. letter car
riers and railway mail clerks, print
ers. machinists and all other organ
lied trades in the classified govern
ment service has been displaced by a
substitute bill offered by Senator Pom
creme of Ohio.
The Mcclellan bill calls for a sys-
tenn of annuities for superannuated
employees under which the employees
and the government each pay half the
cost. amounting to 2Ls pei cent of the
employees salary. The Pomerene sub
stitute would put the cost entirely
upon the employees, at a maximum of
per cent of their salaries.
Following the vote on the Pome-
rene substitute Senator Sutherland of
West Virginia moved to reconsider, but
the Senate has now adjourned until
December 10, when the revenue bill
will come up for consideration. This
situation, it is believed, especially in
view Of the determined opposition of
several influential senators of both
parties, will prevent further consid-
GRAFTON of the retirement question in
the Senate in the near future. The
advocates Of the McKellar bill will
therefore transfer their efforts to the
House for the present, where the same
measure has been introduced by Rep
resentative Keating of Colorado.
The Mcclellan bill was vigorously
opposed during the debate by Senator
John Sharp Williams of Mississippi
and Senator Reed of Missouri. Sena-
tor Pomerene spoke at length in sup
port of his substitute.
