The PUBLIC THE REAL EMPLOYER

There are several misconception of
the question which appear persistentiy
in every day discussion. One is the
common assumption that wages are an
issue between employers and employees,
with nobody else involved. Of course
the public is the real paymaster, and
in the last ANALYSIS the public is CON-
posed chiefly of the Wage-earneIsthem
selves. Whatever they 10 to the pub
lie they do to themselves. The employ
er is simply an Intermediary who plays
a useful part by organizing industry and
undertaking to pay a fixed wage, but
unless he gets full reimbursement from
the public he is soon out of Business,
Another common mistake is that
which lays ali emphasis upon morey
wages. The value of money is in what
it will buy. The standard Of living is
no. fixed in the wage scale; it consists
OF a certain standard OF comfort, GER
tain supplies OF consumable goods The
real compe: satiOn OF the worker FOR
his own labor m in the products
and services of others.
While prices were advancing the Ia
Dor leaders were quick to claim that
money was nothing but a medium OF
exchange ard die not represent their
real compensation. They insisted upon
wage increases to compensate for loss
of purchasing power, a. d got them.
Now the situation is reve, sed. The
farmer is in the same situation that they
were then. His purchasing power has
fallen off, and his standard OF living has
been lowered. The L. Dor leaders are
not fighting to defend their own stand
ard of living, but to raise it permanently
at the expense Ct the farmer. That may
not be their deliberate intention, but it
is the effect of what they are trying to
do. Moreover, the full effect is not
even beneficial even to the wage earn
ers. for it disrupts the exchanges and
paralyzes industry. -Amerlcan Paper,

BIRDS AID IN WAR TIME.

And what shall we say of that
plucky little ally of ours in the great
war, the Insignificant but invaluable
carrier pigeon? Many of these
brave birds have given their lives in
an attempt to maintain communica-
tons during this terrible struggle.
Only recently some English airmen,
whose machine fell into the sea dur
ing fight, owed the saring of their
lives to one of these birds which
succeeded in making the mainland
with its appeal for help, only to
yield up its life on the threshold of
the coast-guard station. Who can
say how far the success Of critical
operations at sea and on shore has
turned from time to time upon the
struggles of these little creatures to
do their appointed duty2-our

CARBON LAMPS A BACK NUMBER.

For the year 1919 sales Of all
kinds of lamps in the United States
amounted to 1S3,000,000, and, al
though this is 100000 less than in
1918, the diminution is not substan-
tial. An interesting feature is the
diminution in the percentage Of car
bon filament lamps made. This has
fallen from II per cent to per cent
in 1919. It is also interesting to
note the increase in the use of gas
filed lamps, Of which 24,000,000
were sold in 1918, as compared with
100000 in 1914 rise of 121@
per cent. Most interesting of all,
no doubt, is the fact that the aver
age candle power of lamps is stead
lily increasing.

Charles NJ. Schwab had an old
friend from Pittsburgh pay him
visit. The Pennsylvania, steel
puddler, came in leather boots, fan
mel shirt and broad-brimmed felt
hat. Mr.. Schwab personally escorted
him through his marble palace, at
Fifty-third street and Riverside
drive, with dignified pauses before
the paintings and various works of
art with which the interior is
studded. He even had his private
organist finger off special program
on tine great organ in honor of the
visitor. incidentally, Mr.. Schwab's
favorite musical composition is "The
Rosary"
"What do you think of my
placer" asked the sreel king when
everything had been seen.
Replied the visitor: 81 tell you,
Charley, it is one swell dump"
