SOME SHOT THE YEAR
MOTHERS WENT TO BED

The new year started of by Civ
ing us the coldest night experienced
in the Rogue River valley this win
ter. The thermometer registered l3
above zero, and this morning the
mercury stood at IA above. This is
said to be the coolest weather that
has settled over this part OF the
Rogue River valley for eight or
nine years. AS a result, many water
pipes were frozen and plumbers were
in great demand. The floors OF
some OF the dwellings were flooded
with icy water.
New Years night the atmosphere
was somewhat disturbed at midnight
by those who believe in shooting the
new year in, while over the city
there were a number OF watch par
ties. Others, more staid, and having
full confidence and faith that the
new year would duly make its ap-
pearance without assistance, went to
bed. Their confidence was awarded
Wednesday morning by Old Sol COM
ing up in all his glory and shining
brightly all day.
While this is not natural weather
for Oregon at this time Of the year,
due to the absence Of warm rains,
nevertheless eN eryone is returning

Wages and Cost of Living.

The relationship between wages and cost of living is
obviously of the most important factors in the
nOmc Industrial problems Of the day. We all agreed
that Giving wage must, as minimum, be paid. The
complaint of some strikers is that the of living has
increased greatly that their wages longer suf
cent to live This SUCCESS the proprety and the
profit of comparing the increase which has occurred in
the of living during the with movement of
wages during the period. Data for the purpose
has been provided by the Department of Labor and there
in respect of various leading Industries, have been
lyzed by the Standard Daily Trade Service, with inter-
estng results
The comparison is between the years 1913 and 1916
In the period thus denoted the cost of living has in
creased IS per 1t follows that working whose
wages have in the time increased by greater per-
centage than that better off than they be-
fore the war; while those whose wages have not increased
by much have ground for complaint that they not
well off, and that if they had than Giving
wage" in 19l3 they have not Giving wage" at the
present time
The statistics show that in every branch of the iron
and steel industry in which the greatest strikes has
occurred the increase of has been considerably
greater than that of living in at least branch
that of pudding mills than twice great. The
increases from 81 to 1877 per cent the average being
III per against Is per cent in the cost of living.
That is substantial demonstration of the fact that if
the getting Giving wage" just before the
war; they getting much than that certain
y enough to make it incumbent upon them TO be
content with their present wages until influences
subsde and increased production induces material
ducton of the of living. AS there will be
reduction of wages there will then be- in fact
practical increase of wages, through the increase in
their purchasing power.
The same observations are applicable to other
pations, in which wages have increased than
the cost of living Such has been the case in
the manufacture of silk goods and of hosiery and under
wear and sawm workers. ald according to the figures
of 1918 the manufacture of cotton goods, and WOODEN
and worsted goods.
On the other hand there trades in which the in
wages has been less than the Is in the
living such the manufacture of mems clothing,
II per cent? furniture, 81 per cent; CIGARS 81 per
millwork sashes DOORS etc, 81 cent, and boots
and shoes AZ per cent.
Yet, if remember Alright there have been
strikes threats of Strikes and demands for in
creases wages in the former category than in the lat
ter among those whose wages have increased be-
yond the cost of living than among those whose
have fallen behind it.-Harveys Weekly.
