The world has been built up OIL
the principle that everyone should
he able to keep what he indiyidu-
ally produces. This creates tnesual-
tiles. out 1t vastly stimulates pro.
duction and encourages bard work
and initiative
The wage system now established
In many trades rs the result OF
which a group OF workers will all
get the same pay, regardless Of what
they individually produce, is apt to
work against the interest OF the
community. This system has the ei.
feet to discourage personal initia-
tive.
The bright and ambitious fellow
feels it is no use for him to perfect
himself in his trade or to make any
special effort, as he would not get
any added return for it. On the
other hand the Indifferent worker
feels he is sure of his standardized
wage.
The excuse commonly given for
this system, Is that only on the
basis of standard wages for every.
body, can the wage earners make
favorable deals with their employer
1t is claimed that II exceptionally
good workers are given better pay,
then their interest is not identical
with that OF the less efficient ones.
hence the wage workers are not able
to act AZ a unit in dealing with the
employer This, it Is claimed. des.
troys their bargaining powers.
This might be good argument.
II pay advances came out Of the
employer But they do not. He
passes them over to the public.
Thus as result of equalization OF
wages, production is held down, and
price advances in the general cost
Of living offset any increases gained
in wages.
Only by efficient production can
prosperity be secured for everyone.
And efficient production only occurs
where the worker gets special re-
ward for exceptionally efficient
work.
