WHAT DOES YOUR DOLLAR


That there is a growing sentiment
in favor of the relative wage was
shown by statement made by A. B.
Garretson, president of the Order of
Railway Conductors, to the officials
of the United States Railroad Admin
istration when he said
mo matter if the minimum wage
were fixed at $25 day, the condi-
tion of the laboring man would not be
improved because the cost of his pro-
ducts would be correspondingly in
creased"
Certainly, and the cost Of all the
other workers products, and of rents,
and of educational facilities, and of
physicians services and of all that is
needed to make up civilized life.
Mr.. Garretson further pointed out
that in a ten-year period, with pre-
sumably several wage increases, the
railway conductors were receiving a
relative wage of $11 less per month
That IS to say, their wages fell $11
short of the former purchasing power
for the necessities of life
With the vastly advanced cost of
commodities today and the incommen-
surate increase Of wages the worker
finds his difficulties Increasing.
This is hardly the hour for arbi-
trary wage cutting.
Some day. and it viii have to be
soon, American workers will all see
that what they want is a RELATIVE
WAGE. The British worker is seeing
it in greater numbers each day He
calls it REAL wage. REAL WAGE

DETROIT SETS A NEW PACE.
On some sections of the country the
light seems to be breaking Encour-
agement and hope grows out of the
recent action in Detroit where there is
provision in the new city charter
to the effect that the minimum wage
prevailing in any craft shall be paid
to employees Of the city who come
within certain classifications.
When the budget for 1919-1920 was
made up and presented to the mayor
for his approval it was found that
many of the employees, such as car
penters, painters and engineers, were
allowed wages some of them 40 per
cent below union scale.
! Here is where the vision came to
the mayor Before the budget had
left his hands to be paved over and
revised by the common council, city
hall was treated to the edifying spec
tacle of large delegation from the
Detroit Federation Of Labor in con-
ference with Mayor Couzens as to
