WATER FREIGHTS TO GO UP

Recent wage advances to ship and
dock workers on the Pacific coast
will have to be met with higher
freight and passenger rates.
One coastwise steamship company
handling passengers and freight
north and south from Puget
Sound will have to raise a million.
A million dollars a year will have
to come out of the pockets of the
public and that will be added to the
cost of living.
The new wage scale of course will
benefit labor, but there is one ele-
ment of unfairness about the whole
proposition, to-wit:
The advanced wage scale is retro
active to August /, while it will
take three months to get advances in
freight and fares. ..
The steamship companies will
have to go before the Interstate Com.
merce Commission and the State
public service commissions.
They will have to get out new
schedules and file them, have hear
ings and get authority to collect the
higher rates.
Wages and earnings of large en-
pioyers subject to state control
should get together If the comma
MES stay in business.-The Manu-
facturer.
