DEMAND FOR

Returning Soldiers viii Be Ab
Sorbed by the COuntry'S
Industries.
OFFICIAL FIGURES GWEN 0Ul
New York State Bureau of Statistics
and information Makes Illuminating
Statement of Conditions That Pre-
vail Throughout the Country.

With the question on every tongue,
whats going to happen to wages
and how will labor behave when all
the soldiers get backY there was eS-
pecial interest attached to the bulletin
issued by the New York state bureau
of statistics and information reviewing
the labor market in October.
In metals, machinery and convey
anceS, which rank first in importance
as an industrial group, the number OF
workers and total payrolls each de-
clined per cent from September 10
October. Three of the twelve SUBJ
groups, structural and ornamental iron
work, pig iron and rolling mill prod
uctS and railway repair shops, report
ed increases of workers of IL, and
per cent respectively.
The most notable increases in EN-
ployees were in shipbuilding, firearms
and structural iron work, and the
most notable advances in wages from
1917 were in structural iron work, 1913
per cent; ship and boat building, 14I
per cent, and firearms, 1OS per cent.
Every division of the food, liquors
and tobacco group, except bread ana
bakery products, had smaller num-
Der of workers busy in october than
in September. The aggregate loss was
per cent, beverages losing the most
20 per cent. The gains were in bread
and bakery products, 10 per cent /;
Strengthening, per cent, and groceries,
2 per cent. Here, too, there was a
heavy advance from last year in wages
for the group, "a per cent.
Everywhere there were wage in
creases NO matter what other condi-
tons were reported, such as de-
crease In number of wOrkmen or In
output. Chemical industries reported
wages up 81 per cent from the preced-
| ing year. In furs, leather and rub
| Der goods the number of workers fell
| off 5 per cent from 1917, but here
again wages went up to the tune of @
| q per cent increase. In the textile
| industries there were IA per cent few
err operatives and a wage increase OF
8 per cent.
Although fewer people were EN-
ployed in manufacturing activities In
October than in September those who
were so employed received on an av
erage the highest weekly compensa
ton that has been paid in New YORK
state factories since 1914. The average
week wage in October Of this yeai
was 1924, and for other years it was
as follows: 1917, S17.33; 1916, $14.9o
1915, 1880, and 1914, S12.26.
In October there were forty-sever
workers available for every 100 posi-
tons open, the labor shortage having
been progressive up to that month
The greatest shortage was in the man
ufacture of chemicals, oils and paints
where there were only fifteen workers
for every 100 jobs. The greatest sup
ply was clothing, millinery and tex
tiles, where there were seventy work
ers for every 100 Jobs.
The only surplus of labor reported
was in clerical and professional pc
sitions, where there were 129 appli
cants for every 100 Jobs.

Paw Increase Granted.

In the case of pattern makers In
10 Detroit shops, the national war Ia
Dor board granted them pay increase
to % cents an hour, dating from Au-
gust 20, and 81 an hour from Novem-
Der %. The retroactive payment shall
be made not later than January 1.
On the other matters brought up by
the pattern makers, such as the right
to organize, the board did not pass,
but merely directed attention to the
principle that the right Of workers to
organize and bargain collectively
should be recognized by employers.

Aid for Service Men.

To hasten the readjustment of en-
ployment conditions during demobi-
lization the United States labor bu-
reau has established branch office
at st. Louis for the benefit Of men In
the service. Before the office could
be formally opened 'pore than 200 ap-
plications were filed in a 4S-hour
period. While the preliminaries OF
the work were being arranged IS of
these men were given Jobs. In this
undertaking the labor bureau is work.

May Give Clerks Bonus.

Plans to assist in the return home
of thousands of war workers in Wash
ington soon to be released were con-
sidered at a conference Of personnel
officers of the war department. Sec
rotary Baker said 1t would be "trag-
icar' to have them suddenly thrown
out of work. 1t was suggested that
provision be made to supply trans
portatIon home or that some bonus be
paid as recompense for short dis
charge notice.

MORE THAN $1,000, 900 RAISED

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, May 20.
More than a million dollars has al
ready been pledged to the Centenary
fund of the Methodist church in the
Chattanooga area. The total to be
raised is $1,291,OOO. The Chatta-
nooga area is composed of the states
of Tennessee, North Carolina and
Virginia.
F. W. Atkin, area campaign direc-
tor, in a statement issued Monday,
declared that the quota would easily
be reached by Tuesday night
The intensive drive Of the Metho-
dists of America for $105, 100000
officially ended Sunday, but, due to
the fact that many Of the church
workers were active in the Saliva
tion Army campaign also, the goal
was not attained in that time. The
work is being pressed vigorously.
The most comprehensive program
ever outlined in the history OF
Christianity will be attempted as &
result of the big drive. $4O,O00,00(
each for home and foreign missions
are the amounts to be spent by tht
Methodist church. $25,O00,000 will
be spent for reconstruction work il
the war-tern countries Of Europe.
