Letters to the Editor
Mr.. vauciaIn's "LIvIna Waae"

TO the Editor Of the Evening Publo Ledger!
sir--in your Issue OF the EvEsisa PuBLio
LspoER dated Friday. December 10. 1920
you print an article dictated by Samuel NJ,
vnuclsin.
In fit article Mr.. Nauclsin states that
. workinEman need not hesitate to marry
~ he II making only s64O per week, and
therewith tries to alleviate the possibility OF
sxosptlon being taken TO his sta Rtsmsnt by
specifying that the workinsman must nrst
forsske the large cities and the many tempts-
tioas offered TO his pvesstbook. and must
resolve to practice economics.
In further substantial Of his statement
he ives us many figures on the average
wsRs paid to mechanics employed BY the
Baldwin Locomotive Works from the year
1888 TO the present dss-. which shows that
the vork.nymen today 10 receiving arproIi-
nstely fve times tho average wage received
in 1883. which proves that tho cost OF living
hss increa sed. at least. Ave timer, " not
seven times. sincs 1898, inasmuch a.. al.
thoush II Ia oontendsd that the Increase IN
wares 10 commensurate with the increase IN
the coat Of living. nevertheless actual etatis
ties show that the Increase In wages IL al
ways below that of tee Increase OF living
cost Therefore, on t-is pssls, taking the
minimum, in.rssse--live t'm-s go. 40 per week.
or $50.
Now. then. W. will assume that u 10
possible to find small town somewhere in
the United states whore the cost CT living 10
30 Per cent Of the coat OF living In a large
city. Tbs would allow man 10 live on
efo per week. which In !ust $500 more per
week than Mr.. Naucisln statss. IL we
oeuld fnd 4 small town where tbs cost OF
living 10 only IS per cent or that In q large
oty. which would still cost ss per week. or
81. so above Mr.. Vaucia!n'a ridiculous figure,
snd In all likelihood the mechanic would not
be abe TO rni employment In his line In u
town or hamlet where such living cost
would eSist. AMI would be forced to travel
. considerable distance. and In all prob
ability considerably move than the inY'Bor
stins threo-nils walk. 80 susEestcd by Mr
vauels In.
IN conclusion, I take tho privilege OF re-
ausstirs Mr. Vauclain 10 discover a hamlet,
VILLAGE or town in the United States where
L condition exists that n workinEman can
follow his trade, earn t6.SO per wsck and
live on it--ths 10 include wife and ono
ahild. He rhouid, in substantlatInR this
statement, give to tho public actual figures.
showing exactly what Items 10 provide h M
self With on suoh wage.
RI, however. Mr.. Vnuelain cannot or does
rot wish to sst forth his figures, hs should
then come forth with an apology 70 the
housewives for having mad. such a state
mont inasmuch as such srtIcieu b. men
who have gained prominence carry tre-
rnendous weight with areat number Of
husbands who very 5eldom. II ever. stop 70
Think for themselves, and II can be easily
seen what disruption nj home tranquility
Is augmented by such articlse.

element regarding tho pistol, II h's ssainst
the law not 10 have them. then they will
